Like good-sounding pillows for your ears

Comfortable; Neutral sound; Great detail in mids and highs; Decent soundstage; Price

Lacking in deep bass; Build quality; 250 ohms is something to be aware of

Great sound taught me what sound stage is, very quiet for headphones (tried various amps no luck) and by far the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn but due to volume levels and clipping at not even that loud of volumes they weren't right for me.

nice head phones with pretty good sound quality. price is okay.

sound quality

none

It is great!

The sound quality is beyond anything I had hoped for. You can actually "feel" the SPL in your head. I use these for critical monitoring and mixing. They do reproduce sound realistically and accurately, and I have no issues with the function of the headphones.

My first open back cans and I now truly understand what the fuss about soundstage is all about. It's not just clarity or depth or even the fact that you can hear each instrument on a particular number. The only thing better than this would be to actually be in the recording studio.

The sound is really good but the high treble is really spiky. I don't like sibilance sound and after a long period, I had some fatigue. The comfort is excellent and the clamping force is better then on the DT 880 Premium.

The Beyerdynamic DT 990 Edition will be a real hit with lovers of acoustics, classical music and dynamically mixed music. Whether its slight over-presence in the high-frequency range is perceived as too intense is a matter of taste and also depends on the preferred musical style.

As headphones become fashion accessories geared toward on-the-go use with mobile devices, pairs intended purely for home use are becoming a rarer sight. The $379 Beyerdynamic DT 990 (32 Ohm) is that even rarer beast, with an impedance designed for use with mobile devices and home stereo gear...

Superb audio performance with an accurate response across the board; Well-cushioned and comfortable over long listening periods despite its large frame

Hardwired cable; Bulky frame not for everyone

Great clarity, dynamic range and frequency response. The best deal I saw on the 32 ohm models. No problems with this unit.
