![Z Review - Beyer-Dynamic DT1990 [Like a German Porno...]](/img/n.gif)
OMFG. I’m so glad I found your channel. Your preferences are EXACTLY the same as mine. Thanks a ton my man. Hat off to you sir
Recently I ordered a Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro. It was my first professional type headphones, and I got it for around $140 on Amazon. When I first started listening to it, I was amazed at how amazing the sound quality was compared to my Bose QC35s considering it cost less than half as much. Then I noticed the headphones looked a bit different from what I remember ordering. Turns out, they sent me the DT 1990 Pros.
So I would say these things are an exceptional value for what I paid.
But a 770 will still sound significantly better than those QC35
Maaaan that’s lucky!
What so you plugged 250 ohms headphones into your motherboard?
@@PossessedTricks probably bought an amp too.
@@PossessedTricks the samsung galaxy s10+ powers my dt 1770 pro rly well, i never have to go over the samsung recommended volume the headphones would be to loud (i have a creative ae-9pe soundcard at home and the Smartphone does it rly good)
This channel is so f**ken bad for my bank balance.
Theuns Coetzee u had us in the first half ngl
Facts!
Wow, your audio reviews game got a lot better!-.
I am glad a big channel like yours is doing hifi reviews, it's good for this niche community to get some exposure.
This is such a good review, you touch on all of the points I want to know about when I'm searching for a pair of headphones and your production quality is superb. Thank you so much for this video!
Excellent review brother! Seriously loving this coverage!
Mate, your videos have BEST lightning ever I've seen on TH-cam,
literally - THE BEST, so analog, so warm,
so adaptive to my eyes - pure joy - thank you! ✨
Check out Brandontaylor
"I like bottom end." Oh, you already know!
💀💀💀
Gz on the 100k! Well deserved!
That panning shot of the headphone with the gold lighting on it directly after the shot of you with them on your head. That shot is amazing 👌🏻🙌🏼
Thanks brother! Thats my new Boling P1 light.
@@badseedtech Hi, sorry to bother you i saw your video on youtube with beyerdynamic 1990 pro. I would like to buy them for gaming/music on PC. But i am not good at DAC/AMP. So can you recommend me some good for this headphones ? I know there are DAC and AMP in one so it would be best, i dont want to have 2 boxes on desk (dac and amp). Thx
Marek Sarnovsky try watching some of his audio vids as he has some recommendations. You should also go check out some of Joshua Valours vids as he has some recommendations, but I don’t know very good gaming options
Awesome review man, looking forward to more audio gear! Also what you described as your sound is Mod House Argon MK3, definitely recommend them.
One of the best audio presentations I've seen. I love this guy's plain-talk approach. He knows his stuff but is clearly not trying to hide behind his knowledge to impress anyone.
The DT1990 Pros are my end game headphones. These are the most precise, and detailed headphones I've ever listened too. Build quality is ridiculous too. I pretty much sold or shelved everything else since getting these. My Monolith M1060's (sold). AKG K7xx (sold). SHP9500s (shelved). Sennheiser HD58x (shelved)
I'm running a Schiit Audio Modi 2 Multibit DAC and Magni 3 amp.
Well, I think I have a challenger for you, the Audio Technica ATH-R70X if by "gaming" you mean competitive FPS, the imaging and soundstage of these are claimed to be unbeatable for gaming, I can't say by myself since I don't have them yet, but definitely sounds like a challenger.
Have you tried Sennheisers HD800 S? If so how do they compare to the DT1990 pros?
This is sick man. Can’t wait for some dope audio content. I really need to up my headphone and mic game.
Up ur mic game
Do you guys know what pc case he has
@@rydrrr3069 NZXT H510 Elite. I have the same case. Love it.
really amazing detail, killer bass, big soundstage, great metal build. It really is a great pair of cans. Dekoni hybrid elite pads are my favorite with them.
damn bro killn it with stacks of facts! congrats on 100k well deserved for damn sure.
hyped for the audio content!!
Bro, you have such a wonderfully done set of videos and channel.
Congrats on the 100k subs
Great video as well ❤️
Amazing review, great video. Damn good reviews. Good man!
You just became my favorite headphones reviewer, we share the same taste in sound
Congrats 100k u deserve it😁☺👌
Always awesome overview 👌
Been seriously looking at these, I think you just sealed the deal!
How are they?
Awesome review! And thanks for addressing measurements and the Beyer treble spike. I’m glad it doesn’t bother you, I’m definitely going to try them now. I would love to see you review the Focal Elex eventually.
Just ordered a pair and was a bit worried, buyers remorse. Stumbled across your channel thank gosh. You eliminated that noise, and I am looking forward to my first listen tomorrow. Excellent review. I instantly subscribed.
3 years later do you still have the 1990s and how have you liked them so far?
Good job breaking down what you like, it really helps people more precisely understand the product.
Great channel dude!
great video again, like to see you growing man :)
And his beard...
Dude, you really got better and better each video.
I was just curious about the higher end sound stuff, but now I’ve watched 8 videos of this guys and his personality is just great
DUDE WHAT A GREAT REVIEW WOW KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO. WELL SPOKEN MY FRIEND AND YOU ARE GOOD AT YOUR JOB ROCK ON
Great review! I ended up getting the 177x, works great even with modest Schiit gear. I needed that closed back to use it at work. Bests my AT BT headphones by far...
Thanks man
This was the the video I needed to finally make up my mind, just order them today.😁
How do they sound?
Great review, even better beard, very envious!
Awesome review as usual! Quite pricey and still loving my DT77, but intrigued.
Clicked on for the headphone review, stayed for the killer beard. Great review and aesthetic!!
Just bought these based on this video, thank you Brian!
Luv your vids!!
I love how i seem to have entered the audiophile rabbit hole as you dude. i just bought a fiio k3 and a darkvoice tube amp which i tube rolled with a winged c power tube and an electrovoice preamp tube
Very nice! I’m running the SU-8/THX 789 as a clean stack and the Airist R2R/ZDT JR w Voskhods for my warm stack.
Great review! Adding a set of Dekoni elites pads improves the comfort level on an already great pair of headphones.
Which? Velour or sheepskin or hybrid?
@@DarkPa1adin the elite velour are best. They "fix" the treble and improve the overall frequency response too.
@@twolazy6348 what do they fix? Just got a pair of 1990 in my hands thinkin about these drakoni pads
I've been subbed to you for so long and I don't regret it one bit, I watch your reviews just to see what you did with the vodeo cause I don't have cash.. :' D
Can't wait to get a pair of these!!!
i know im late for the show but i just order the DT 1990 pro for gaming base on your review and they are my first professional headphones. thanks brother keep up the good work and i will ways like your video they are amazing thanks again..
Just ordered these today, can't wait for them to arrive! Gonna be comparing them against my Sundara's and HD58x.
How are they?
Completely agree to the review.
I got them allready and I love it.
I nearly tried every single headphone by beyerdynamic and I stayed with the 1990, because of the highs. Clear but not too harsh like the 770 or 990 in my opinion.
The feeling is great, they are comfortable and the sound is amazing. Built for years...highly recommend these headphones!
And which emplifier do you use with it
@@ChainoKS On pc i got a soundblaster G6 and on for tv a marantz AV receiver SR8015. Both work great with the headphones.
I love the taste in music B!!! Especially loving that Angels And Airwaves...now we just need some testing to include NINE from blink-182 😄🤯
Gah the quality of this channel is amazing
Good taste dude! I love my 1990s. So comfy and sound is great.
Are these appropriate for music production?
Joseph I don’t use them for anything like that personally, just listening to music and gaming, but from the reviews I’ve read and the research up to purchasing it seems like they would be suitable for more professional type work :). Someone that does that type of work could provide much more useful advice than me though. Good luck.
Joseph DMS said ‘They are incredible for studio use’ in a review he did.
Great review as always from a man with a huge beard! 👊🏻 P.S. I ended up buying Dt 880 Pro's, for me they felt more balanced than 990 and I'm using Sonarworks software. Interestingly it tames harshness from highs and makes sub region of 880 Pro's "more alive" like in closed cans, but doesn't make everything too flat for fun listening!
Personally, I like the analytical pads more because of the clarity. On most songs, there is no perceived edgyness or harshness. However, I did get a passive inline filter to tone it down a bit and make it the ultimate allrounder for me. I don't feel like getting anything else after this one anymore.
This moment when you bought a DT 1990 PRO because of this video.. And now watch it again. nice!
Haha! Me too!!!
@@Niiipon Aand I bought the ModMic Wireless because of the other video.
Highly recommended. Fits very well!
@@DragonDrop4758 Cool :) I use the Shure SM7B so i dont thik its nessesary :) BUT.. i am looking for a GOD sound card for gaming that i can use with the 1990 Pro.. but i dont know what
@@Niiipon Hmm.. I don't hnow either.
I use either a Sennheiser GSX 1200 pro or a Sony STR-DH550 Amplifier.
Maaby I'll get a Headphone amp as well, but I don't need one right now.
RTX 3080 or RX6000 have prioriry. 🌚
Jus ordered this headset because of this review!
im currently watching this for like the 8th time. I love this video.
At this time, for me, you are the best reviewer on tech stuff.
i just bought dt1990 pro. i love them. i use analytical pads and no eq. i don't hear any sibilance at all. probably it works well with my dac+amp combo. finally i get what i want from a headphones.
Comon, so good. That phase "you ready? Let's go!!" . I started watching every video to just hear that phase. I am planning to compile all videos together. With that phase. Xd
Just ordered these and I can't wait for them to come in
Do you like them? How is the bass?
I own these bad boys after this channel's advisement and let me tell you from build quality to sound these cans have blown me away full-stop. I got these, Schitt Modi/Magni stack and a Modmic USB.
Such a monumental upgrade over my shit Steel Series gamer headset. Audio is an underrated investment that can span generations of hardware.
Def worth.
How's it doing now for you? Fps gamer here. Been thinking to get this. Build quality on my SS arctis wless pro is a big disappointment.
I am using a set paired with an Aune X1S and it sounds amazing for anything you throw at it.
10th time watching. I cannot get this one out of my head. Can't wait to see your re-review of the DT 770 :)
FWIW, this is still my everyday workhorse. While its not the best in any one category, its the most solid all-rounder I own.
@@badseedtech I for sure thought your new Audeze would take over that place. I’m so glad to hear that these are still one of your mains! It’s so hard to pull the trigger on a $600 headphone, but this makes it a little easier.
100% agree. Never thought a headphone could have such impactful yet detailed crunchy bass. All my other cans trade bass quantity for quality and vice versa.
Very nice seeing you review high quality audio gear. I keep telling people that there is no such "gaming headphone". There is only good OR bad headphone cause if it's good then it's gonna be good at everything or sound like trash on everything. In fact if I could give must 1 tip "AVOID Anything with the marketing term "gaming" as its all BS".
Sure if you do nothing else than game and u never listen to any music at all, the bad quality isn't gonna be as noticeable at first but the very good headphone for music are gonna be way superior for gaming too. Having a large soundstage isn't just for music, most people don't get it.
I had so many headphone of which the DT800,990 and tried too the 770 which are very hard to best at their low budget pricing, else I did try the 1990 Pro but quickly sent them back to Amazon as I found the head clamping too hard to my liking. You could trash hardcore to some metal without ever risking it to fall but otherwise it would cause me a small headache after a while. I much preferred the older model that I still have, the T90 that is more like the newer but uglier "Amiron" ^^
Anyhow I don't use it anymore since a year as I've switched to a much higher range with the "Planar Magnetic" headphone and got myself a used "like new" pair of (Audeze LCD 3) with the following amplifier (Woo WA6-SE) and will never be able to go back to anything cheaper that I had. Yes it sucks that to get a step above you have to DOUBLE the $ everytime but it definitely makes a difference!
I now tune in to your vids not for the content but the beard and your voice. Also what's your fav time of day?
Thanks! I'm not sure how to answer that. I don;t think I have a favorite time of day.
You and BT hit 100k around the same time, congrats haha
First 1k!! Still quick in comparison to how many ur gonna get!!
Try them with the dakoni elite valour pads. More intimate mids than the balancrd pads with little more bass than the analytical pads. I do have a strong issue with the 8k and even 10k. 8k is currently eqd - 8. With some other eq it really brings out more detail in the mids and raising the bass. Waiting on a custom passive filter for the 8k peak
Great review! Any chance you will review RNHP
Precision Headphone Amplifier?
Dude, on behalf of a producer and national recording artist who is obsessed with audiophile videos, thank you.
I was at my wits end with most of the popular audiophile reviewers and think because they aren’t actual musicians or producers, you get a very confused idea of whether they are right about a headphone. After shelling out the money time and time again, I’ve learned that most of them don’t have an understanding on this level.
This video alone corrected all the things the other guys never include, like a photo of the frequency response, the type of music you listen to, and straight forward honesty.
I’ve been an AKG guy forever, and even prefer the Superlux HD681 over all of them because the bass extension is so much better. I’m not happy that I need to love a 30 dollar headphone, and I’ve modded AKGs.
I’ve always wanted the 1990 Pros but this video is likely making me pull the trigger because even with the mods, the AKGs just have way too much sub drop off. I absolutely need soundstage but I don’t need a K712 soundstage if it means no sub.
Please keep up the things I mentioned. I know tons of people are fed up with other reviewers not being clear enough or thorough, and even worse, the music they use to reference is unbelievable.
ive been waiting for this video for ever
Yo same! I had to compare them against everything before I reelased the video because I really couldn't find anything wrong with them.
BadSeed Tech well its beyerdynamic theyre going to impress every audiophile except for the people who use sennheiser 600 series or the 800 series because those headphones are kings
Any chance we're getting that DT 880 review some time soon? Awesome video as always.
Nah, I skipped it when I realized they are essentially the same headphone as the TYGR 300 R. I find it to be good for gaming but for music, it was so middle ground that I didn’t feel it did anything particularly well.
Got myself a pair of these today very nice indeed, I have a feeling that these may be replacing my HD58X for gaming. They strike a nice middle ground between the very intimate staging of the sennheisers and the vastness of my K712s.
The treble is a quite harsh, although after a while my ears kinda adjusted to it. Either way, I've ordered some dekoni elite velour pads to try to smooth out the treble peaks. Right now I'm having to set my volume in game based on the treble spikes, which is leaving the mids at a lower level than I'm used to, hopefully the pad swap should fix this.
hey badspeed tech amazing video like always, after watching you for a couple months your my main TH-camr , but come on your starting audio vdeos and i just bought astro a40s
Blackchameleon21 badspeed
hes been doing headphone reviews?
If I Broke Bad thats what I'd call it. 😂
Listening on my DT-990, i can't wait to upgrade!
Was it worth it?
@@brodie8530 love em, using a modi magni set up.
Have it since 3 years! It’s a tank🔥🔥🔥🔥
How are they?
Made me order this, what amp you would recommend now, their own A20 or enough with the fiio k5 which u also reviewed? Thanks for the perfect and honest reviews you do of this type of tech!
first time watching this channel, and oh my this guy has a awsum beard
I have these, I love them
These headphones have been my go to ever since I made the purchase. I do think that with certain sound cards or being connected to different sources can accentuate the high end a bit too much but I am too in love with the looks and the build quality so I don't care too much. After 5 years of regular use 4+ hours a day I can easily say that they have NOT deteriorated in any regard whatsoever. If anyone is looking to jump on the audiophile train I'd take good look at these as they don't come much better for the price.
If you are looking at hype train Edition XS which myself and several friends have purchased... don't even think about it. I'm going to "side grade" to the DT 1990 because I love beyer build and ergonomics. I need to have a headset I can wear many hours per day (12+). Edition XS are just too large and bulky and I hate dual cable exits. Sound stage is perhaps TOO wide for my usage and vocals seem annoyingly distant because of it. Bass has little to no impact except at screaming volumes. DT 770 for my use case is superior in everything I care about.
Loving the audio gear reviews, man! Your review of the PC37X finally convinced me to get a decent pair of headphones.
Are you by any chance planning to do a video on audiophile terminologies and other beginner-related audio content? Would be awesome for peeps who are relatively new to this :)
I am actually.
@@badseedtech looking forward to it. Cheers!
The beard is simply epic
I like your beard and you have such a nice voice xD
Favorite headphones I ever use
NZXT H series case, Plugin Alliance plugins, DT1990Pro... you are a man of exquisite tastes :D
My favorite headphone by far.
It will be amazing if you review the AKG K712pro, I know they are not a new model but still pretty amazing for the prize.
Hey Brian! I love your videos. I hope to see your channel in very high places with the quality you provide. In the video you said that you have only 3 headphones lying around on your desk for different applications. I just wanted to ask what do you use the 990 for? I am torn between 990, akg k702 and SHP9500 for mainly gaming purposes. I already have a hd 598, so I want to feel the upgrade when I switch to any of them. If you have any other suggestions please share them with me! I have a soundblasterx g6, so driving any headphone shouldn't be a problem. Thanks a lot, and I wish you all the best!
I like how Beyerdynamic really helping the environment and reducing e-waste by making their own products unaffordable.
I cant tell if this is satire but id rather things be a bit pricier for the better of the planet
@@ThevenimX Of course it is... He's just saying people won't buy it because it's too expensive.
@@TheEchelon These cans aren't targeting the casual market. That's what the $150 DT 770 Pro's are for.
People without jobs shouldn't buy things they don't need
People without money should not want to buy things they can't afford LOL
That beard is so clean
Quick mention you should so try out the AKG studio/ref headphones, paired with the right AMP, those will be your on top of your list!
I've been watching videos for a week on headphones and ultimately keep coming back to this pair, intend to pair with modi heresy and magni, has your opinion changed you seen any of the treble increase or get to you over time? Is there another open back you'd compare to these that even comes close in the same price range? Love the channel and content
they look great
Will the mayflower mk2 or the sound blaster x6 run these? Also I love watching your videos man
Great video. But i still cannot decide, whether to buy dt 1990 pro or hd 660 s :(
Got the new razer viper mouse and planning a new keyboard - These reviews really are 🔥. Loving the channel Brian
I LOVE my DT 1990 Pro, when it comes to open backs get an HD6xx and a DT 1990 Pro and that's all you'll ever NEED.
Totally agree. I think, pretty much regardless of personal taste, those two pretty much fit the bill for just about every situation. What do you like in closed backs?
@@badseedtech Its a tough one cos I generally only use closed when I need isolation. AKG K371 sounds great but all 3 units I've had has had some build issue. DT 770 Pro is my go-to. I want to try the 1770/177x tho.
hey man what amp would you recommend for the DT 1990s? im having trouble deciding on amp what to get
loving the channel, new to audio gear of this level and you are a one man champion when it come to guidance and tutorials.. a quick question i had on the DT1990 pro, i noticed the drivers are 45mm but ive been led to believe that larger driver are better for special sound recognition, that's to say better surround sound. is this drastically different to the 50mm and above competitors are offering? and also, i was going to purchase a GoXLR mini to power my headphones but would that be sufficient for the DT1990's, as their impedance rating it 250Ohms?
thankyou for all the help in the past and for the future
great channel (Y)
Driver size doesn't mean anything and most people can't even hear difference. IF you want a proper amp, go with an Atom
Love your reviews! Will the Xbox one x controller power these sufficiently for gaming or would I require a portable amp?
How is Audio like while playing the new Modern Warfare with the DT-1990 Pro ?!? Cheers Badseed always love the content you create no matter what it is Brothaaa =)
Thanks for this review. Great job. I have a dt 880 pro 600ohms and i'm looking for a New one and maybe it will be the dt 1990 dt pro. Do you think my dac/headphone AMP topping dx3 pro will be ok with this one too?
Thanks. And best regards from France 😎👍
