Need help driving my prospective pair of Beyerdynamic dt990 pro 250 ohm headphones. Want to make sure they are driven properly before I purchase them. Primarily for use with my laptop, though probably will be used with my Galaxy s4. The cheaper the better.

  As short as possible take on: who am I and why am I here (for those interested) -you can skip this!    My name is Agustin and I'm from Argentina (by convention: somewhere in the south of the world). I'm now 23 years old. I've been listening to music since I was a child when my father bought...

I almost daily use DT990 for listening to music, my interest are mostly in classic rock, classical,jazz and a bit of indie and alternative. After using them for almost 2 years I'm finding the sound to be too harsh for my taste for long listening sessions though most of my sessions are not more...

I have Dt990 pro 250 for awhile but keep reading about all these new phones out if there are any that are clearly superior to what I have

I just got it today, it is my first studio grade headset so I am quite clueless in how to properly set it up. I have the MSI Z87 G43 Gaming Motherboard - http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z87-G43-GAMING.html   Which is said to have support for up to 600ohm headset. Now, I connected my headset to...

Hey there! I've been lurking here for a while, and recently needed a headphone upgrade. Following the advice of users here as well as what I've found out from my own research, I decided upon the Beyerdynamic DT770 (250ohm version). They just arrived a day ago, and so far so good. Probably some...

As I want to have a better experience in games I've been considering the above headphones. My current setup is the Audio-Technica ATH-M50 with the ASUS Xonar DG, which has an build in amp. Will I be able to drive a pair of 250Ohm headphone with it or should I upgrade? On a sidenote, it stands...

My budget is 250 and I'm looking for either closed or open back headphones that are OVER EAR!!!!! I listen to a lot of metal/post hardcore/ rap. I want an excellent sound that isn't bass heavy but the bass is still present. I will be listening off of my iPhone 5s. I don't have an amp so I would...

Hello, I'm a newbie.  I very like beyerDynamic design, so I choose beyerDynamifc headphone. Anyone can give me recomendation "a best headphone for me".    My favourite is Pop ballad (female-voices as BOA, Yao Si Ting, Davichi... i live in Asia), instrument (monochord, zither, guitar..)...

Hi, i'm new here, thanks for reading me!   I'm looking for the ideal headphones for me, i can't afford not buying the perfect ones haha, i've saved a long time for these so i want to make it count!     I listen to:   Killswitch Engage A Day To Remember Daughtry Bruno Mars  Bullet For...

Hello, I'm new to the forum, so I'm sorry if I'm posting into the wrong forum section or something..   I'm planning to buy new headphones soon, thinking about Sennheiser HD 600/650, Beyerdynamic DT 880/990 or something in this category.   I only have a laptop (with USB and HDMI), so I have...

Well I couldn't resist the Amazon deal on the Beyers so ordered some.   I've now tried them against my ATs and am wondering if they need either some burn in or a better AMP.  I'm running them both through my Topping TP30 DAC/AMP and frankly the ATs have WAY more sound stage and are way more...

Hi all,   After much research and pondering I've finally decided to get a Beyerdynamic dt900. At this point I'm not too fussed between the pro/premium and 250/600ohm versions. What I'm really having trouble with now is finding an amp and stuff for it. I know I need an amp but I have no idea...

Just recently started with this obsession and want to get a moderately- priced amp and dac to use with my headphone collection topped by the Beyer 990 pro-250.  Received but returned Fiio E11 and E07k due to loose connectivity issues.  Am debating between the Fiio E17 comb. amp/dac and the...

I am currently looking for an amp that would power a pair of beyerdynamic 990's for my laptop.   I have the xda2 for my desktop but when I travel it won't work. 

Hello i was wondering if anybody has ever attempted to wash the felt pads on the dt 990 mine have apparently taken to absorbing sweat and are getting a bit of a foul odor.

The Beyerdynamic headphones are 250ohms and I was looking at the Topping TP30 Amp/DAC and I'm trying to find out if this amp can power a set of 250ohm headphones. Both the headphones and amp/DAC come very highly recommended and are very affordable. I have little experience in headphone amps and...

Hi, I am listening to my AKG K240 Monitors 600 ohms (NOT the Studios) from both my ODAC+O2 amp and my vintage Nakamichi receiver, and I must say I am impressed by the sound considering it's relatively old and cheaper than other headphones. I actually prefer the sound to the Beyer DT 880s as it...

Hello people,   Please note that I have done my research (for almost 6 hours of browsing time) before I finally decided to see if I can get a better response by asking on this forum so please be gentle =P.     I've recently purchased a Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO 250 OHMs headphones, I've...

Hey all, just wondering if anyone else has experienced a slight clamping problem making it quite fatiguing to have on for a long time whilst gaming / listening to music.    I would like to know your thoughts, cheers

Review of the Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro (250ohm)                    This is my first review, and so I hope that I do well. Please note that all are opinions from a fairly inexperienced head-fi’er (see below for what I have to compare to). I am sixteen, and for the entire review, I am listening...

So these puppies are on sale for $150. I recently picked up an interface (Focusrite 2i4) and wanted a pair on phones to mix commentary vocals with along with my studio monitors (Mackie MR5MK3). I also wanted to use these phone for movies and music listening. I have the Sound Blaster Z as a...

Hey guys. I have a rMBP and I want to get a set of over the ear headphones. Definitely open ear headphones since closed gets too warm for me. Would love to get a DAC if i need one or an AMP. This will be for desktop use only. I don't need anything portable. Thx Rob

I currently own Beyer Dynamics DT 990's 250OHM. I am using a Asus Xonar Essence STX as a amp currently. I am looking for something bertter and looking to invest 1,500-2,000$ in a Headphone and amp setup. I would be ok to purchase quality headphones and save more for a amp later if need be. I...

Hello,   I am your typical newbie who does not know much about amps in general. So I have researching, asking questions, etc... on here and other forums for advice. So here is my dilemma:   I currently have a pair of DT-990s 250 Ohm Pro that I use for gaming/movies. Now I am interested in...
