The DT 990 Pro’s are my favorite. They have such a great flavor that makes listening to mixes really enjoyable. I constantly go back and forth between the 990’s and my Senn HD 600’s for mixing and pleasure and then I have a pair of ATH-M50x’s for tracking.

[@SpaceGhostPercc]

What is tracking exactly?

[@Teeb2023]

6:04 Apart from the excellent airy, spacious sound they give, I've found the open backed DTs to be far less fatiguing than fully closed headphones, and the velour covered pads make them even more comfortable. This is a major plus in long sessions.

[@annassami2396]

are open back headphones okay if ill be recording guitar and vocals with an xlr microphone?

[@farwestgarohills3831]

DTs impedence is to high 250 ohms. You will not hear any noise, if there is any. I am happy with Audio Technica. I have 4 of them: 2x M50xBT (for playback), 1x M50x (for post production), 1x M70x (for field production - noise catcher).

[@enlistenmusic1719]

The DT990 has a huge treble peak lmao, what? They’re literally one of the most fatiguing headphones you can use. I have the dt770, which have less treble then the DT990, and they’re extremely fatiguing without EQ. They’re not a good headphones for mixing because they aren’t flat at all. You need actually flat headphones for mixing, like the DT880, or the sennheiser HD600, 6XX, or HD560s. The DT770 especially is not good for mixing at all. They’re designed for monitoring. They’re completely coloured in sound signature, have way to much bass, and way to much treble. If you mix on them, your mix will probably end up sounding very mid forward.

[@Teeb2023]

@@enlistenmusic1719 Who are you replying to?

[@enlistenmusic1719]

@@Teeb2023 Well I mean you mentioned that the open back DT headphones weren’t fatiguing, so I figured you were referring to the 990s. If you weren’t though, then that’s my bad. But if you were referring to the 990s, they’re actually very fatiguing and not great for mixing.

I bought the Neumann NDH-20 when I bought a Moog Grandmother. I wanted something that could handle the Moog and my other analog instruments without fatiguing my ears.

There’s a subset of people who swear that the current M40x’s beat the M50x’s and are lighter/more comfortable and are cheaper. You should do a head-to-head

[@SanjayC]

Good idea!

[@fromoutwest]

On top of the weight/comfort/price benefit mentioned above, the main selling point of interest to readers of this channel would be the more neutral sound of the M40x which makes them good for mixing. I also find them great for casual music listening. Overall, I think these are a great value pick.

[@continuousable]

I'm also interested. Haven't listened to the m50x, but I own the m40x. They have a pretty neutral sound with sweet mids. Not a flat sound, rather a balanced sound between detailed listening and fun. These headphones are also great for on the go.

Thanks! Glad you like the DT 770s! Still my favorite!

[@miqueas1992]

I agree with ALMOST everything said in this review. My one nitpick is that the DT770's and DT990's do not sound the same in my opinion. I use both extensively and the DT990's are undoubtedly brighter and glassier than the 770's. And that's important because the 770's are already on the slightly brighter side of the spectrum, so the 990's are more fatiguing after a long session. I have to admit, I definitely reach for the 770's more often (which are actually slightly more comfortable as well in my opinion).

[@Blackbloodroyals]

I purchased the DT990 250 ohms version used it with Focusrite 8i6 and they sounded terrible. I mean as soon as you turn the music up the sound gets distorted. Have you experienced the same thing? At first it seemed like the music with slightly louder bass was sounding distorted but later anything that is higher slightly in the middle started sounding distorted and I returned the headphones. I searched on the internet if anyone else had the same issue and turns out a few people have made a complaint of the same issue. Have you ever experienced anything like that with your DT990?

[@agentooe33AD]

Also, I would throw in the Philips SHP9500 for a budget option, and for a more upscale open back, the Sennheiser HD 598s are very good. I use both of these for A/B'ing, and gaming. They're both very good, very comfortable, and the sound sate is excellent!

[@MrFattarot]

I've had the Cb1's for about 3 years using them daily. lol i'm actually using them right now. They are great for the price!! I loaned them to a friend who had the M40x and he was blown away by the sound quality. Very comfortable too. Unfortunately the build quality is not that great. The "leather' from the ear cups has stripped completely and I had to use my sewing skills to patch them up because they totally fell off. The hinges on each ear broke and they are both being held together with super glue. Still sounds great after 3 years though. If you want something comfortable, with great sound then the Cb1 is a good buy, but if you are looking for durability.. get something else. P.s. Don't get the OneOdio if you care anything about sound quality. You will regret it. A friend of mine bought a pair and it sounds terrible. Save a little and get something better

The ath-m50x are amazing for mixing and creation when you can't use monitors. Translates very well when I do jump on my speakers. The soundstage isn't all that wide but it handles everything else quite nice. Was a major recent upgrade (last year) from my 7506's I used for over a decade. Beyers were too bright for my tastes.

I've got so hype about the M50x but after I get it, it was very uncomfortable for me. But I still use it for 3 years now, I bought another decent cheap headphone that is comfortable, and use it for everything except when I need to master the track, I put the m50x on.

[@kasabov5747]

I can sort of relate, having m50x myself. My previous headphones were HyperX Cloud 2, and coming from them the m50x at first were noticably less comfortable, especially for longer periods of time. But after about a month or so, I got perfectly used to M50x, and I can wear them for many hours barely noticing any uncomfortableness (idk if that's a word even) ... so I guess you just kinda get used to over time.

[@Ansh4sure]

10:10 i bought these n i am a beginner... I made kind of like good mixes in it!! So. I would suggest them to others on a tight budget and just wanna start!

[@SanjayC]

Nice. Thanks for sharing your good experience with them.

[@Combonym]

[@Nancy_Shorts13]

For a well mixed edm like Hardwell , Nicky Romero ... Which headphone will give you the most pleasure like you are in the club ? ...I have sony xb900n and it miserably failed to enjoy me as it gives vibration in the name of bass , don't have sub bass ... Kick are not punchy as real😪 I bought from yT reviews ...

[@kekojones8431]

Awesome video, I subscribed to your channel

[@MrVleker]

Missed the Sennheiser HD600 or 650s though, those are really popular as well!

[@UpliftedProductions]

I said the same thing. Wonder why Sanjay didn't review any of those?

[@SanjayC]

Yes I've heard great things about those. I had limited budget for this video. My wallet's hurting lol

[@MrVleker]

@@SanjayC Ah yeah, that is a good explanation! I'll make sure I watch some ads for a part 2 :P Those hd650s are expensive indeed. In the long term I'd like a pair of them but short term I think I'm going to get a pair of DT770s :)

[@SanjayC]

MrVleker nice choice

[@slfrflct8504]

@@SanjayC sennhiesers hds are worth the investments, the mids are incredible perfer them over the dt770s ( i own the 580 percisions)

I bought the Neumann NDH20s last year (2019) in April and am absolutely glad I did! These closed back headphones have some of the best sound I have ever had with some headphones and I use them for just about everything except gaming. The church where I work sound and media systems has a separate room where work. We get some "visitors" who will occasionally get loud and bring up children who cried on occasion. I had the Audio Technica ATH-M50x headphones and they DID NOT block out that sound very well. After getting my Neumann NDH20s I was really surprised at what I had been missing from the sound, and because they are so good, I occasionally had to take some forks to my ears due to the "out-of-tune-ness" of the singing for the music. Yeah, they did that. My bottom line for them is if your budget allows it, get the Neumann NDH20s because they are worth it. I did and I'm glad I did. Thanks for sharing Sanjay! Your honest openness is refreshing!

[@SanjayC]

Thanks for sharing. Its amazing what good quality gear does to your studio environment. And you don't know until you get it. I totally agree.

[@MisterEvvvSymphoenix]

Wonderful review! I love how you summarised your findings at the end, and packed so much useful information into the description, including timings that allow us to easily navigate the video to specific items. Very helpful. Thank you so much for making this! EDIT: Wait a minute ... not to mention the 14 subtitles you added for different languages. Dude, what ARE you??

[@SanjayC]

Hi Ethan. I really appreciate your comment. It takes a lot of work to do everything for these videos so when someone notices, it really makes it worth my while. Thank you. You made my day! :-)

[@MisterEvvvSymphoenix]

@@SanjayC You're welcome, man! I know how hard it can be, so I personally gave up on subtitles for the time being, but you went the extra mile.

[@Kings.Production]

Can you please tell us what amp should we choose for dt 770 pro 250ohm? It is very hard to find good info.. do we really need something expensive? What specs should the amp have? Same ohms as the headphones? I read somehwere that amp impedance should be 2.5 to 8 times lower than the headphone impedance, but still I'm not sure.. music is pretty difficult when you go deep lol.

[@poe3j873]

this channel is awesome thanks man!

[@Layarion]

Sanjay, i just want something I can wear for 8 hours and still feel comfortable. Can you give me a list based on that?

[@connorsol]

agreed. same. none of these reviewers seem to get it.

[@luissinsin]

Great review. I was looking forward to seeing the frequency response graphs. :( Also, I believe the ATH-M40x might have a little less bass than the M50x so perhaps that's a cheaper option that is more neutral and a better recommendation for people. I'm looking at headphones with the most isolation as possible while still sounding good. I already have the HD280s and the ATH-M50, if you ever find something with more isolation than the HD280s that sound great please let me know.

[@myintmaunmaun]

I think AKG K271's isolation is great.

[@malek6607]

Do best studio monitors 2020 please

[@SanjayC]

OK I'll do that sometime soon

[@KunalMusic_]

Hi sir by your recommendation I purchased focusrite scarlet 2i2 Now I am confused which headphones should I buy I think berydyanimic is nice but which model should I buy and of how many ohms, closed or open please help me by suggesting me Main purpose is mixing and mastering

[@SanjayC]

I like using the Beyerdynaic DT 770 with the Focusrite interfaces.

[@FriedBaconRPG]

Amazing video! Which one of those would you recommend for digital piano studies? I kinda want to find one to plug into a shigeru kawai and forget the world while playing / studying :)
