very lovely review, you're reviewing avout exactly what i have wished to hear from a headphone review.
These videos are a hidden gem. Can’t believe this channel didn’t take off. Very informative.
Miss your channel, dude.
@Gaming Audio Guide As usual, an outstanding review. You can really see how Beyerdynamic have nailed this studio monitor pair of cans. I predict it will become a icon among the pros. As for gaming, I have to see for myself. Yes the footsteps and imaging are there, but without a pleasant sounding bass, the games will sound empty. I, personally, need the bass-filled explosions to go along with the footsteps and imaging. Thank you again for a informative review.
I was expecting a new video for MW2. WYA my guy ;)
I was very surprised at the frequency response being so neutral. Thank you for doing such a thorough review and for comparing it to the TYGR which I already own.
I was as well. You're welcome. I hope it helps people decide between the two or if the switch is worthwhile for them.
@@gamingaudioguide9292 The Sennheiser HD560S is considered neutral, is it close enough in frequency to the 900 Pro X? Which one would you say is better for competitive gaming? Do you use your 880’s for competitive gaming? Thanks in advance
@@stang4258 560s has better directionality but the dt 900 pro x has less bass so I pref it for games like battlefield
If you had to choose one for gaming 900 x vs 1990. In imaging
900 x
really nice review,what s your pick under 300$/euro for fps gaming oriented headphone?(best image and pin point accuracy with great soundstage)
Do the 1990s have a bigger soundstage than thesenhaftere the 560s for gaming and better imaging ?
Do not let the videos mislead you on 560S, I think a lot of their hype is unwarranted for competitive gaming. Footsteps sound very far away if you are used to closed back experience. I returned Actis Nova Pro Wireless for 560S and it was a straight up significant downgrade in Valorant.
Hi, I'm about to smash both my hands with a hammer so I never type another question to you ever again but before I do I need to know the best headphone dac/Amp combo for gaming and watching movies, looking for something loud immersive and sounds great for those open world action games and movies 😊
this question gets asked a lot but there are so many variables, it's very difficult to give a good answer. what's your budget? are you wanting an all in one unit? there are great interfaces that have great dac/amps in them and give you a mic. what impedance are your headphones? do you plan on changing headphones in the future?
@@gamingaudioguide9292 thank you sir for you're reply, I know nothing of the audiophile realm so sorry if I sound dumb here but I'm thinking 1200 dollars total for headphone dac/amp I have a wireless mod mic that can stick on the headphone so basically I just need to know the names model's or whatever of the stuff to buy. Thanks again 😊
@@johncapone8843 if I had that money I would get hd8xx with topping a30 pro and d30 pro, or also the bottle head crack … but I would take special care to getting the nice headphones first rather than the dac/amp. For example I have hd560s and e1da powerdac and my friend has hd800s with a custom amp on sparko op amps , we agree that you can get like 85-90 % of the 800s of the experience for less but the 1% does a different, worth? That depends, do you drink cheap whiskey once you already taste the good one?
@@pc_decisions8764 the hd8xx are the drop headphones? Those are fire!
@@johncapone8843 yes, but I rather have the Dt 900 x for gaming/media and hifiman xs for music, the no limit would be hd800s and audeze lcd-2 or lcd-x , but I’m a simple man and I run hd560s and he400se on my e1da powerdac and qudelix 5K on tripowin Lea (on the go)
Just found your channel! I hope you start making videos again soon! I love your reviews and i trust your opinion vs all others.
How it compares and wich do you prefeer in terms of soundstage and imaging with hd560s or tygr300r for competitive gaming? (Warzone for example)
This headphone has the best quality/price ratio I have ever seen.
The another one with great Q/P is the K702.
900X has better overall response in the whole spectrum. It has the more dynamic sound.
K702 has the better soundscape. It is possible to forget that you listening to a headphone.
BOTH has huge ear-space, and both has the same mini-xlr connectors, therefore their cables are interchangeable
On a low budget I would suggest to someone to buy these two, and they can cover 99% of the use cases.
Agreed. Wish we still had your takes 😢
Greatest review of these cans I've seen on TH-cam. I especially enjoyed your thorough comparisons of all these Beyers with one another.
In fact, your review and comparisons were so good that made me immediately subscribe to the channel. My only gripe is that this video, from a year ago, is also your last video. Man, you'd be one of my top favorites if you start reviewing headphones, and audio gear in general. Based on only this video, I place you higher than a lot of these audiophile channels. Please, give a thought and come back strong. At the end, I hope that nothing serious is the reason for your absence and you're in good health.
For a recommendation, it would be great if you could review the new Beyer DT 770 Pro X Limited and compare it to all these other Beyers, especially to the DT 900 Pro X.
This is TYGR 300 R for casual music listening?
You have great videos man. I am cross comparing the 900 Pro X and 1990. I have to admit, I love the way the 1990 looks and I have heard it packs a nice bass slam and punch which really intrigues me. I already have DT 770 and have not really struggled with the highs so for an all in one what do you think? I don't want multiple heads but need something good for competitive gaming and good music. The $500 for the 1990 is steep but I've already purchased Edition XS and will probably be returning it. Sound stage is too open for me and I feel voices are just too far away from my head when I watch TH-cam and listen to music... I just keep turning up the volume and they're physically awkward to wear all day.
Already have entry Schiit stack so I think I'm good there.
I can't decide if i should get this or the tygr's (€90 less) for gaming mostly.
What did you end up going with?
@@rasmus98000 I got the HD560's for 100ish € on a amazon sale. I am happy with them
Do you have personal overall ranking of headphones for FPS multi-player games? (Great vids, subbed!)
Nice and really professional reviews youre making. Keep going man ;-) IMO the DT 990 pro 250ohm with external audio card like Sound blaster G3 is really a best bang for the buck ( Bought this set from after seeing your review ;-) ) A lot of people are just converting from those "gaming, wierd looking" headsets to pro type headphones and it is great. Tech/Audio interested people appreciate your effort that you put to make videos like this ;-) Cheers Man
Thank you for taking the time to share the positive feedback. I genuinely appreciate your support.

Currently I’m running a pair of crinacle year zero iem’s into a external topping dx3pro+ dac for my pc gaming and music listening but I keep dt990 for my helix guitar rig and they are still awesome
@@eldisenador662 900 Pro X, better tuning and costs half of the 1990. 900 Pro X is also more modular, easier to repair and more repairable by user if something goes wrong.
I own the 990 600 ohms and love them.The 1990s are tempting but I feel they are more than I need and I would be getting diminishing return. I opted for the 900 pro x. I wanted a great pair of headphones that are more versatile.
I switched from the DT990 250Ohm to DT900 pro with uhm 32 Ohm. An upgrade for sure . But you didnt get double better sound for the double price. Love them both.
10 dB difference in leakage is surprisingly big.
Agreed. They need to re-think how they are marketing the entire line.
Got the 900x in last week played with them for a bit they sound alright but I’m tempted to return them and get the 1990s. I play competitive shooters and music. I watched your review on 1990s and you seemed to like them a lot
next time just get both and return the one you like less.
@@MegaChickenPunch I did bought the 1990s returned the 900’s. Thanks
@@H3selrahc No regrets? I'm in the same boat, probably returning XS for the 1990. I like the Beyer fit.
@@drewmorg. 900 Pro X is better for competitive gaming than 1990. Going more expensive isn't always smartest. DT 900 Pro X and HD 560S are best for competitive stuff. I personally simply also prefer 700/900 Pro X tuning over 1770/1990. I honestly dont see any reason why one should get 1770/1990 over 700/900 and I've tried them all. I think 700/900 are better headphones period.
Great review! Earned a subscriber. You touched on some good points that other reviews haven't. Great attention to detail. My research has led me to choose between the HarmonicDyne Zeus and the DT 900 Pro X. My main concerns are gaming, watching TH-cam, movies, and listening to music. Based on the reviews I've seen, the DT 900 Pro X has better imaging, while HarmonicDyne Zeus is more "fun" to listen to. I will probably go with the 900 as it is cheaper where I am currently.
They are $175 on ebay right now that is a steal
Great review.
I'm interested in these headphones for gaming only. Would like to turn them into a headset by adding a mic. Could you suggest an adapter; mini xlr to 3.5 mm female? Can't find a suitable one.
Thanks.
I haven't tried anything like that. It's not a standard connection, so I think you will struggle to find an adapter. Probably need to go mod mic wireless or similar if you don't want to do an inexpensive interface and mic. plenty of good usb mics out there today as well.
Where are you at? I need more content.
My TUF Z790 has a S1220 audio chip, do you think it's good, clean, enough for gaming or should i get a DAC AMP like the ifi Zen DAC v2 for the 900 Pro X?
Thanks.
What do you think is better for competitive fps gaming, dt 900 pro x or the Austrian audio hi-x65?
sorry, I'm not familiar with the hi-x65
@@gamingaudioguide9292 you should definitely check them out for me before I possibly invest $419 in them lol. They’re supposed to be pretty good though. Was wondering your take on them. Either way thank you for the reply and the video!
@@notblazedfordays9536 I'll reach out to them and see if they will send me a sample to test. thanks for the heads up!
@@gamingaudioguide9292 that would be amazing and much appreciated! Thanks again!
@@notblazedfordays9536 Buy the dt 900 pro x. They are $175 on ebay. That's a steal

glad you enjoyed it. thanks for checking out the content.

@@meleardil Thanks for your thoughts.
can you wear them all day with eyeglasses on, and listen to techno music with good bass response and mids-high balance, and without the clamping force causing any pain?
Thx for the good review, it so happens I am on the market for my first headphones(no gaming headset). I am by no means a audiofil,just a regular gamer with a competetiv mind. I have been lookin at almost the whole Beyer family(990,880,900 x). Im already using Rode podmic with Rode ai-1 interfacer and are now looking for a good pair of "gamer headphones". Which of the 880 vs 900 x would you recommend for competetiv fps gaming.
I own a lot of the Beyerdynamic headphones and the 900 is great for gaming. I prefer the 880 600 ohm with a pad change for music. But the 900 is great competitive and its my go to when playing competitive.
@@reckulurn3038Thank you for your answer, I was hopping that were the case becuse if find 900 x more aesthetically pleasing and I would prefer for the cable to be detachable on my headphones.
Thx again!
@@JoakimTj You are welcome!! The 3 pin mini xlr cable is a bit long and it can rub against your shoulder. Look up Z Reviews on youtube. He did a review of the DT 1990 Pro and he added a link to a AKG cable that works great for 900 x. I bought 3 of them and use them on my modded DT 990 pro, 1990 and 900x.
thank you 👌great, I hope for a next video with settings for Warzone as you did with the Astro 👍
For my taste, Beyerdynamic unfortunately missed out on bringing a DT 1880 Edition, which is a real shame.
you dont understand anything. they basically discontinued dt 990. 1990 and 900 pro x are both way more like dt 880 than dt 990. they are actually isolating more noise than even dt 880. dt 990 type open backs beyer doesnt make anymore, except maybe for tygr 300r
Which is better for competitive fps the r70x or dt 1990 pro?
how do these go up against the hd560s gaming wise?
Gaming Audio Guide Thanks Much !
RIP
Huh?
Thank you, a very good review. The cans combine the best of two worlds for me, the more "hifi-sound" is perfect for movies, gaming and modern music.
Thank you for the kind words. Couldn't agree more. The more i use them, the more impressed I am. They have a few small cons but overall a spectacular set.
@@gamingaudioguide9292 Hi, could you please review the Beyerdynamic Amiron Home. I have the wired, open version and like it better than the 900 pro x for gaming and movies.
You have a jaw?
