🎧 Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro Headphones for Gaming | Are They Worth It?
Is it a hype train, or are these headphones really that good? Today we're taking a look at the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro headphones for gaming. These are 250 Ohm headphones that require an amp to properly power them. Let's find out if people are using them because they are Ninja's headphones, or if they are actually that good. Are they worth it? And yes...the GoXLR and GoXLR Mini can power these headphones properly.

It’s highly possible that your mic can pickup some noise coming out of the ear cups. For me it’s not really a problem because I use a noise gate though so as long as you adjust your noise gate accordingly you should be perfectly fine.

i had DT990 Pro 250ohm, DT990 Edition 600ohm, and the DT1990 Pro 250ohm now. I initially upgraded to the 990 Edition to avoid the coiled cable, they are a bit better in terms of detail and clarity - but to me getting rid of the coiled cable was the best. For the DT1990 they are at a whole different price bracket at 3 times the price, they have removable cables and they come with both coiled and straight cable, and they have multiple aftermarket options for earpads which greatly change the sound. Highly recommended for gaming and music, all 3 pairs have ecxeptional clarity, detail and a huge immersive soundstage. All were powered by a Sound Blaster AE-5 which had no issue driving any of them, even the 600ohm pair.

@Tristan Lavictoire Yes, one is open back and the other is closed. The point was that for me; they made a huge difference in audio fidelity over my former headset, the Logitech G933's. They are otherwise the same technology,, It's not like one is electro-static drivers and the other standard coil drivers. the open-back nature of the 990s have a wider stereo field, but the stuff my friends say isn't always appropriate for a 4 yr olds ears, so closed back was my only real option.

As someone who used these headphones for years now, I will say the earmuffs can get really worn out and the sliders can break/crack easily. They do sell replacement parts for the 2 and practically everything else about the headphones(you could theoretically make your own buying all their parts) but they're fairly pricey. I highly recommend those who get these headphones to be aware of the potential of the slides breaking and the ear muffs wearing out so I recommend you all to be very careful with them and take care of them properly. But overall it's really good. It does sound very quiet without an external amp. I grew up around other studio-grade headphones (mainly because my dad loves to get top-grade headphones and really picky about their sounds and he tends to give the ones he dislikes to me). I recommend those who can't get an amp because they're fairly pricey to get a different headphone (I'd recommend a Sennheiser HD598SE or something along the lines) otherwise you'd just be wasting your money on headphones that you can't get the best experience out of it.

Lol I disagree he has no idea what he us talking about with these cans an is clearly used to consumer level products. Which is fine everyone has to start somewhere. These are entry level pro audio gear the pro part isn't a gimmick label it's vastly different from consumer level gear. Eg. He states the cable is not replaceable with these headphones. Pro level gear are made with replaceability in mind they disassemble in less then 3 mins every component in them is replaceable. The cable is literally a 30 sec on off solder job to replace you can replace it with any cable you like including upgrading it to a balanced cable easily even if you've never soldered before. That's a simple difference besides sound quality you get from pro level gear. Pro level = fix replace parts use the same headphones for 15 years+ if the sound profile is great for your ears. Which is why you should save an buy double your budget when buying pro level gear imo. Consumer level = cord breaks, ear cup tears, switch cracks , volume rocker fails etc etc chuck out buy new gear. Majority of the time consumer level gear is a pita to fix yourself even for simple wiring an replacement drivers ear cups etc are never available.
I bought these.. and they're just wayyy too quiet with my goxlr. Not sure if i'm doing something wrong but for me they just aren't loud enough :/

Since the 990s are 250ohm you will more than likely want to get an amp to run between the Go XLR and the headphones. With the right amp, these headphones can almost be unbearable in loudness. A great amp for these is the JDS atom. If you're not trying to spend a lot, there are some mini-amps out there for around $30-50, but some of them don't have preamps and are more likely to have noise upon amplification.

The clamping force was a little too much for me in the beginning, but they really loosen up and sort of adjust to your head size after a few days. Plus the quality of them is really good so they're gonna last you for years (i even accidentally sat on them once and they're still fine lol). And since you're 14 you're obviously going to get taller and bigger eventually, so it's a good idea to buy something you can use in the future as well.

@@scarstruck85 I have it hooked up to my Focusrite Scarlett 2i4, which serves as the DAC. My setup is a little unconventional. The main outs of the Scarlet are going to my JBL monitors. I wanted to hook my headphones and my monitors up to work at the same time so I can quickly go between them. But since the RCA 1/2 out's volume is also tied to the main outs via the volume knob, I'm running the 3/4 stereo out into the Atom. Now since Windows has crap audio support and cannot send audio through two separate stereo outputs simultaneously, I use Voicemeeter Banana (which is free) in place of the Windows mixer and that allows me to output both stereo outs from the interface. I use the headphone out on the interface to run into my Subpac. The final result is that my monitors, headphones and sub all have separate outputs which allows me to control their volume independently.

I've used these headphones for the past 3 years, can confirm they're awesome. The only problem is the foam cushion wears out fast depending on the length of your daily use. Once the foam is worn out, the headphones become painfully sore on the ears. For me, I have to replace the cushion every 9 months or so.

Hi! This is a high quality production! I love it! Question: I'm looking at building a new rig during this summer and while at it, I wanted to move away from the typical gaming headsets, as I'm just not really feeling that they give the spatial awareness I need anymore. In addition, I work with some editing and music from time to time and I don't want to swap back and forth between sound outputs for different purposes. I'm looking at getting this headset, and also installing a Sound Blaster AE-7 internal sound card to be able to power it (and add potential extra virtualization regarding spatial awareness). Thoughts?
This is actually a good review of the headset. He deserves more views and subs!!

A proper amp and/or DAC will increase soundquality regardless of impedence used. The impedence roughly tells you how much power you need per volume. Though also sensitivity of the headphones is an important factor. Long story short, the 80 Ohm should work with your console alone but I would recommend an USB dac/amp (soundcard) for the 990 pro to get them to sound properly
Can I use the headset with the GoXLR plus the Sm7b connected to the GoXLR?

You gotta be careful with it, at 5 inches you are fine. But if you are BLASTING the audio and the mic is very close to ear cups it will pickup some sound depending how sensitive you have your noise gate configured. You should be fine though, everyone has been able to make it work.

Possibly, but I doubt there’s an amp in there strong enough to power these headphones. Give it a shot, can’t hurt anything by trying!

It will but not near it's potential. You'd have to turn the mixamp all the way up and you'd get a medium volume.

no, they will barely work at all. Also the Fiio E10k that everyone recommends, struggles also. I have sold and got away from the DT990.. i found them uncomfortable, the treble is AWFUL and way way way too high in comparison to the other sounds, along with that, the positional audio that he says is good above, is absolutely tragic. My old £30 steel series siberia paired with an astro mix amp were better for gaming, by a long shot. I just purchased some sennheiser HD660s and the comfort, audio quality, sound imaging is MILES ahead of the DT990 i will literally never use them again, and ill use my £30 set before i go back to the 990's.

he also mentions the treble isnt sharp, i promise you, the treble is harsh, too loud and itll literally hurt your ears before you get the other sounds loud enough that you want to listen too
Can i just say this video is the best i have watcht this year just becurse you are so chill and just you keep it up man ❤❤❤
What am I doing wrong for the headphones not sound loud enough with the goxlr I hear the volume but it’s so low and I feel like I’m doing something wrong
Since I didn’t see it mentioned yet: There‘s the 990 „Edition“ which for most users is probably the better choice. No sound difference, the only differences are: Cable is straight rather than coiled Clamping force is reduced for an even more comfortable sit, especially when wearing it for long durations. As for most gaming contexts a non-coiled cable is probably less annoying, check out that one maybe.

I had these years ago and would get headaches. I returned them than got the AKG Q701 and was happy. I'm getting the tygr 300 which is the tamed version of the dt900 and Ill see if it gives me a headache too lol.
Its genuinely surprising how this guy has only 8K subs, when I watch his vids it feels like he should have at least 200K...
Would this be worth it if I’m gaming on a ps4? I would like to add an amp but idk how to add an amp to a ps4. I see some amps attach to the controller

Like I said commercial ModMic is there for modding any headphone into headset with minimal work. AntLion is also selling their own small USB dongle ADC in case PC's mic input has lousy quality. But if you have such loose mic from some cheap gaming headset Beyer's design is also friendly for low cost DIY modding. (need only that 3.5mm extension cord and some zipties)

They are good, the thing is the price for them isn’t worth it compared to some other headphones, they put price over quality when at the 990 price you can get slightly better headphones. I’ve used the 990 I prefer a brand like Sennheiser and their HD series

Sennheiser is garbage. Sennheisers have no bass, no soundstage, treble that rolls off completely after 6khz so remaining 14khz of higher frequencies in human hearing range (20hz to 20khz) arent even audible. Sennheisers are mids only, trash headphones.

Hey bro if I have a asus tuf motherboard can I plug this headset straight into the motherboard and not a amp because I heard that if you have a asus tuf motherboard the audio will be good?
I cant decide what to buy. Would you recommend me to buy the DT990 Pro or MMX300 ? I would buy the Soundblaster G6 Amp for one of them.
When you mentioned that they can be powered by the Go XLR Mini I actually started celebrating. Ty for answering my question that I couldn't find anywhere 🙏
What amplifier do you need for the 600 ohm version? Thanks in advance 😀😀, nice videos btw!
Ordered the DT 990 Pro and a Sound Baster X G6. Replacing my Arctis 7 Wireless. EFT player btw :)
