Beyerdynamic DT 990 Premium Maintenance
Hey guys, I've been having my Beyers for a while now and I've noticed that there are spots or smudges on the earpieces (specifically where it says DT 990 and whatnot). I guess it's all over the metal or plastic? Not what the material is made out of. I haven't touched them for probably 3...- smeksime

What would be a good portable amp for a pair of Beyerdynamic DT990s 250 ohm premium version?
I'm on a pretty tight budget as far as buying an amp goes, and I don't demand extreme volume. Just extreme quality. Will consider anything below $100, but really trying to get one for under $50.- MaximumSandvich

Do DT990/880 pads change the sound on the DT770 Pro
I think the pads on the DT770 are too firm and wanted to pick up a pair of the DT880 or 990 pads which I heard are much softer and deeper but I was wondering if they change the sound a lot, if anyone can tell me that would be great :) thanks.- Supertoaster
