Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro Review! Ninja's Headphones.. Are they worth it for gaming?

Are you new to these headphones? There are ALOT (NOT 2) of versions of this headphone. It comes in 80/250/600ohms. It comes in black and silver. It also has two models being the premium and the pro. Premiums have different headbands and cords. Pros have the coiled cord. All of these sound the same but the exception of the ohms. And you don't even list good mixamps/DACs for gaming. You listed a shitty Creative Omni with no Optical Input!?? Are you high? Why didn't you list the Creative G6? You have no clue what the fuck you are talking about. LMAO. Do your research instead of trying to make money off a video driven by Ninja's success.

Maybe thats your good pair of headphones

[@dennycrane2938]

These are studio headphones which is why they don't have "great bass". They're meant to be flat so that you can get balanced mixes in the studio. They will give you clean and "accurate" sound within the spec range. Accurate meaning it's not influenced by a built in EQ. This means that when you're recording, it will represent the actual sound coming out of your DAW so that you can balance them accurately. For example, if your headphones were heavy on bass instead of neutral, then during your mix, you might reduce the bass and then when someone plays it back on a system that isn't heavy on bass, it'll end up having no bass at all. That said, if you're already listening to mastered content (like games), then they will give you the intended balance as created by the sound engineers for the game. If you want more bass, then you're opting to modify the source which is fine, but that's not what these cans are for.

Just look for a good frequency response (e.g. 12k-20k at least) and then we the bass up in your audio software. Or just research any highly rated sets made for *listening* to music. You’ll save hundreds. “Studio headphones” are a waste of money for gamers.

Good review and good headphone, but what never gets mentioned in reviews and i think it should is the fact that Beyer earpads need replacing every 6 months and they are 20 a time. Cheaper headphone velour pads such as Takstar Hi 2050 those don't wear out like the DT 990 Pro does. Just FYI. Worth mentioning. :)

[@NormalConcepts]

I've used this product for about 6 years now (replaced the earpads 2x for a good price) and i can say that this product for the price that it is at at this moment is an ABSOLUTE STEAL. Even with the price of a standalone mic/usb micro added this is so worth it. The soundstage is amazing, the comfort is 10/10 and the price is just to die for. If after a few years the earpads get dirty/flat you can just replace them easily for a good price which is just amazing. You CAN NOT go wrong with trying these headphones atleast. (just up the bass a little if u like it)

[@innerg1367]

I own these for music production the 250ohm. I was surprised to see the big time gamers using them as gaming headsets. It pretty much makes all sounds at an equal balance, which is important for producing music so nothing is too overwhelming on the finished product. If you want a cinematic experience these are not for that. These are more for the technical side of things

[@areddan]

Competitive games are developed with high fidelity sound and binaural positioning. Important in games like Valorant/Hunt:Showdown and more to know where shots are coming from, explosions, footsteps, etc. Hunt:Showdown team actually used DT 770s during dev for this reason. AAA single player is more what you're referring to with the cinematic experience with less importance on separating sounds and positional awareness.

[@elhomo6406]

I like these headphones but I wouldn't call them balanced by any means. It has a bump in the bass, some roll off in the sub bass (to be expected with an open back) and a pretty hefty peak in the highs.

The DT990's paired with a Soundblaster X G6 AMP/DAC has been some of the best money I've spent on my setup.

[@lightning_lensch]

You should know that ohms is the unit for resistance, not power. Yes you need more power for them but there is much more to it than just boosting the signal. Amps have as much impact on the sound of the headphones as the headphones. Also the difference between 250 and 80ohms is not noice, it's more like the resolution of sound. Gamers won't tell the difference anyway so any gamer just go for the 80ohms unless you're a producer and you know the difference, but then you wouldn't watch this video review but a review by someone who really knows what he's talking about, no offense. For gamers still a good video I think.

Good video, BUT! Ohms is not power! Power is measured in WATTS. 250 ohms refers to the electrical resistance the headphones present to the amplifier. And that is sort of an average measurement as the electrical resistance varies depending on the frequency they are trying to reproduce

[@WolF-if9ys]

If you consider buying the 990s I would highly recommend you to also try the 770s. I have been using the 990s for over a year now and they are my first open back headphones. Over time I realized that I personally miss how closed back headphones sound and I also realized that I could find the enemies better, once I used closed back headphones... Thats why I am going from the 990s to the 770s now. Open back headphones are not the best for everyone and I highly recommend trying them before you buy them if you have the opportunity...! ALSO If you are not sure that your sound device actually has enough power for the 250 ohms version, then get the 80 ohms one! There is pritty much no difference when it comes to sound but there is when it comes to loudness trust me! I have both and I prefer the 80 ohms version! The 250 ohms one is also kind of uncomfortable to listen to because its just a little bit too sharp and precise. Its really just for music production and things like that but not for gaming.

On that comment based on the cable being non-removable, it's actually not that bad since beyerdynamic have been known to make their headphones easily repairable. Almost all the parts on their headphones (especially the DT 770s and 990s) are up for sale on their site and other retailers. They even give you the part numbers in the documentation that comes with the headphones. And test, this includes the cable too. You can get longer or shorter ones. You can get them coiled or not. The point is, Beyerdynamic headphones have been known for their durability and repairability for a long time now. That's why you hear all these stories of people who have owned their pair for a long time now. Also, just take care of your headphones, show them some love and they will love you back.

Good review these headphones are great I have been using them for along time now way before ninja. Also from my understanding on reviews I have read every part is replaceable correct me if I am wrong? But also I have used the Schiit Magni 3 and it’s ok. A better amp to me is the jsd atom or liquid spark. Same price point.

[@twirlante5440]

Do you think they work for PlayStation

[@Eli-gn6dr]

@@twirlante5440 Would not recommend. These headphones mostly require an amp to reach reasonable volume levels.

Of course Jen! Hahaha

[@rocketsciencemusic5398]

Ive known about these for years, way before Ninja was around. Great headphones for the price from someone who is from the pro audio industry.

[@PerfectViolation]

I own the DT990s 250ohm along with several pairs of headphones. If you use them with a dedicated amp and windows sonic with a treble reduction EQ they are monsters for gaming. When is comes to music listening I wouldn't recommend them. In addition to the harsh highs I found that the sound is too thin and airy overall. A good choice for gaming if you can invest in them.

[@aimescape1818]

wow thanks

[@keyboardtek]

I appreciate a well done review, good video and clear audio. I have used AKG K240 headphones for years in composing my electronic synth music, and they are extremely clear , but also have slightly de-emphasized bass as well. But they are just a bit uncomfortable to wear for hours in a recording session. I was wondering if you have used the AKG K240 and if so, how do they compare to the DT990? I am going to find a store that has these Beyer's to check out.

[@olisharm6406]

It’s not a gaming headset, it’s for music production so keep that in mind

[@zephskiee5395]

It has a really good sound imaging so it's suitable for fps games you can locate enemy footsteps better than 7.1 sorround sound gimmick, some people said it's just like x-ray. A lot of audiophile open back headphone are suitable for gaming and performs better than a gaming headsets cause they are engineered by an audio professional.

[@watsinhorde]

nice review dude.... glad i purchased these

[@Jorozzzzz]

I am looking to buy some headphones and I will use them mainly for gaming but I also listen to some music from time to time. I wonder a lot if I should go for wireless vs wired, open back vs closed back, gaming vs studio. I am looking at the following models at the moment, any recommendations are appreciated: 1. HyperX Clould Flight (wireless, closed back) 2. Sennheiser Game One (wired, open back) 3. Sennheiser HD 599 (wired, open back) 4. Beyerdynamic DT-990 Pro (wired, open back)

[@komi1834]

my +1 on Game One, just make sure you get Game, not older G4me version which is harder to drive and requires good AMP to widen soundstage to actually be any better than closed back ones

[@Jorozzzzz]

@@komi1834 Meanwhile I decided, so first I got the HyperX Clould Flight but I didn't like them at all so I returned them and got the Sennheiser HD 599 instead cuz they were on discount, basically same price as Game One so I am happy now. I get crystal clear sound from the Sennheiser HD 599

[@lachlanjones962]

Considering that these headphones are older than Ninja, I don't see how he popularised them.

[@jackmakackov7077]

they have been an industry standard in recording studios forever. They are the most accurate headphones in the world

[@lachlanjones962]

@@jackmakackov7077 idk if they're the most accurate headphones in the world, but they're pretty good.

[@artistbervucci1716]

I totally agree... they are classics, great headphones, but when they came nobody used them for gaming (of course lol), and using them now for gaming... yeah weird. Ninja together give them the hype, but as I've written - audiophiles, not gamers. I'm a new subscriber and this is my first video from you! Also, I still haven't found an answer, but is the leather vegan or real? (real leather is not suiting for my skin)

[@derekf.2893]

Havel The Rock Do you like them for gaming?

[@DaddySann1776]

@@derekf.2893 i would reccomend astro A40's, you can buy it without the mixer as well. Fantastic 7.1 clear surround sound headphones. These headphones are more for clarity of music and whatnot, Gaming headphones are designed for spatial experience and compatibility. you can use the A40 on PC and AUX so it has variety too! Fun Fact: (im actually finding headphones for music because my A40's inspired me to get a nice music making set)

[@jamesm7071]

Tactical_Bacon24 Astro A40s are not great to be honest, audiophile/professional open back headphones are almost always the better option, as far as surround sound goes, Dolby atmos for headphones is going to be he best option although the most expensive

[@jamesm7071]

Derek Florer In all honesty I’m not a huge fan of them due to the sharp and bright treble that makes them uncomfortable to wear for long periods of time. If you are looking for a really good pair of headphones for gaming then I recommend you look up people on KZbin like Joshua Valour, or DMS and see what their recommendations are.

[@ZeldagigafanMatthew]

For something so premium like these headphones, a non-removeable cable is quite a deal breaker for me. It's like buying a microphone with a 50 XLR cable preinstalled and welded onto it.

[@Flacko.z]

Hey man love the review, I'm kind of in a pickle. I can get the dt990's for 100 EUR and and amp for 60 EUR, should I buy the HD58x's and import them for around 150 EUR without an amp or should I go with the DT990's? I use them mostly for CS and stuff, music listening isn't as important to me but I do like being able to tell apart the synths from the bass and stuff. Thanks and again great review!

[@CarRoy]

Get DT990s 32 ohm. You won't need an amp and theyre cheaper than the HD58x's and have better build quality. I have been comparing them for like a month and think DT990s are better, my opinion

[@Bzk--]

@@CarRoy DT 990 are 250 ohm only my dude.

[@DankTank374]

I just bought these like a mad man got the amp for it as well

[@Name-se3lf]

There's a bit of misinformation in this review, the cable is replaceable, it's just not detachable. Everything on this headphone can be replaced easily

[@AspectClip]

Coming from a Sennheiser 598 CS (closed source aka closed back) to the DT 990 Pro (I already had an amp), the sound was... interesting to get used to, as these were my first open back headphones. I opted for open back even though my Sennheiser's weren't broken because I was getting headaches from the closed back causing pressure over a long time of gaming or working (I'm on video calls for work). The other day I tried the Sennheiser's again and now that I've gotten used to the DT 990's, the Sennheiser's are complete rubbish by comparison. I don't recall them being that bad. But I'm redpilled on open back despite my dislike of sound leaking - the quality improvement is worth it. Edit: my only gripe is that they're too tight, again putting too much pressure on my head, which can sometimes induce headaches. Not as bad as the Sennheisers because the DT 990 is open back, but still a bit too tight for my liking. But I'm not going to swap them out because they're too good for the price (£108 in UK is a bargain)
