BEYERDYNAMIC DT-990 PRO (80 OHM) Headphones

Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO (80 Ohm) Open-Back Studio Headphones

The Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO (80 Ohm) is a legendary studio standard, adapted for the modern, more mobile creator. These are open-back headphones, renowned for their incredibly wide soundstage, depth, and spaciousness. Due to their open design, the sound "breathes," making them ideal for mixing, mastering, and critical listening, as they allow you to hear every detail of a recording.

The key advantage of this model is its 80 Ohm impedance. While the older 250 Ohm version required a powerful amplifier, this model can be safely connected directly to a studio audio interface, laptop, or synthesizer – the sound will be sufficiently strong and dynamic. The headphones feature a "V-shaped" sound signature: powerful yet unexaggerated bass and crystal-clear highs. Comfort is ensured by the signature soft velour earpads and a durable spring steel headband.
