- First of all this will void your warranty so do it at your own risk.
If you are not experienced with soldering i would not suggest you to do this mod.
However! In the end it is well worth it due to the additional functionality, and comfort.
I honestly wished that Beyerdynamic would see this video, and sell the next version with this type of detachable cable, or even include a separately purchasable mod for the crafty customers.

Gonna bookmark this for when I will eventually need to repair my headphones after they are out of warranty ! :D
i gotta come back to this video later when I get these. Vmoda boom pro is already super convenient to have
good job
was very curious about your project, nice to see it now. 👍
It sucks that they don't make these headphones with detachable cables out of the box, there is no excuse for it in 2022.
For anyone interested in buying the headphones:
First of all. Taste is subjective, and you taste may differ.
With that out of the way.
Short review-
The good:
Best sounding headphones I have ever owned.
Open back design with a great wide sound stage.
Perfect for gaming, and pin point audio precision.
Great sub extension.
Sharp, and punchy base, not muddy, and not overpowering.
Clean clear neutral to warm vocals.
On the highs it's all there, sometimes to much for my taste (don't prefer harsh treble)
The bad:
The non-detachable cable.
Hehe fixed that one 😅
They are comfortable, but not for a really long use compared to something like the Sennheiser's HD 558.
The inside of the cups have a cussioning pillow, but after long use you can feel the driver touching your ear.
They require a bit more power to use.
You can drive them of a phone, or PC.
But to get the best out of them you will need a AMP. Something like the Fiio BTR5 5 is absolutely perfect.
Conclusion:
♥️ the headphones.
They are not perfect, but we'll priced for the fantastic speaker like imaging they provide.
If you have a AMP/DAC that has a bit more power in the output I would definitely recommend you to buy them.
I agree. Best sounding Hesdphones ive ever owned. Thats why im anxious doing this mod...
Thanks for this video, had to do this since my cat chewed the original cable, great upgrade to make the cable removable :)
Glad you like it :)
This are my favorite headphones even today.
Who knows... Maybe Bayer dynamic will make a v2 with a detachable cable, and inline controls in the future.
Wow they look amazing now. If they sold this version for 300$ People would still love them
Still my favorite headphones!
And so convenient being able to just unplug the cable, or replace it if damaged which i had to do after a upsiii with a car door.

Yeah, great job on the mod dude! If i had some experience with soldering i would take my chances.
Great job!
Nice mod!
i really hope that you are still active on this channel, i have a question
i've seen that the wire used by the headophone are really really thin, when i connect the 3.5 socket to the board of the driver do i have to use the same "size"of wire or i can use whatever wire i have avaible, even if thicker? i have a 3.5mm wire (the normal one that used for arduino and stuff), does it compromise sound quality or changes the impedance of the headphone?
You can use thicker wire, but it can introduce noise to the system on touching it during operation, or pick up ambient electromagnetic noise. If you can, you should use thinner wire with a thicker isolation, like microphone wires.
In the end, you can try it, and see how it works.
Hi there,
I have been tempted to do a similar mod with my DT880 and Tygrs so I just have 2 cables, a long and a short one (most of the time I use short, but some cases long is handy). And just switch cables when i switch headphones as I hate cable mess and having 2 pairs of headphones on a stand, one with a 3m cable attached is a mess.
I'm still using them, and haven't registered doing the mod :)
@@theeucguy Hey there, I have a SoundblasterX G6 and I wanted a great pair of all-round headphones to pair it with. I'm extremely confused between the Fidelio X2HR and TYGR 300R, I don't know which one to choose so I was hoping that you could help me.
Here are my requirements:
First of all, I don't care about competitive gaming (multiplayer/online fps) at all.
I only play single player, story-based games (like God of War, Red Dead etc) and I like watching movies as well. So basically, what I'm looking for is *IMMERSION* above all else.
Any suggestions?
I bought for playing and Musik a DT990PRO 80 Ohm Version, but I play with it, since one week and I'm very happy, the difference to my old HyperX is big. I thought about ordering the TYGR for comparison, but why 🛀
The Tygr has almost similar sound to the DT 990 Pro. It‘s made for gaming because the imaging (location from enemys) is very good.
Are these even open-back headphones? From this video, it seems like there is literally no opening to the outside when you take the driver out of the headphone casing. Does anyone know?
They are open back. There is damping material between the driver and the outer cups.
Can you explain a bit more how you use the multimeter to determine which wire goes to where on the plug?
In case you're still looking for an answer and assuming you're talking about that screw in plug:
You can plug in a cable and use your stereo male connector to determine which pin is which. Test each part of the connector, left/right/ground, and see which one of the pins is connected.
@@dastyp4771 thanks. Can you explain in further detail please? So plug in the trs to the new installed jack? So if I touch the red wire to one of the pins on the jack then what is the multimeter touching? Sorry im confused. Thanks.
@@Princeton_James 9 Month old comment lol but yeah I can.

In the image you can see the different areas of the aux jack and what they correspond with. That's where you put the first of your multimeter probes. Use the other to test your wires. If you're on the left audio area of the jack and your multimeter goes off, you've got the wire for the left earcup, etc.
for the bought connector it should be on your packaging. otherwise you can determine the pins the same way
Nice mod, do you have a link for the part you use to connect the cable?
I got the part at the local electronics shop. It is a 2.5 mm 4pin mounting female banana audio connector.
But you can find similar things on Alli:

How are they compared to the DT990?
Never tried the DT990 but what i see by the specs they are 250 ohm so harder to drive, and studio monitoring headphones so they have a flat response sound stage.
The TYGR 300 R are cheaper, easier to drive, have a amazing wide, and detailed sound stage with no overpowering Bass. That's why i like them.
But tastes are subjective.
@@theeucguy I already own DT990 as 80 ohm, is it worth to "upgrade" to TYGR for gaming? I drive them with Shiit Fulla 4 and I kinda like them
@@AidenFranklin1 absolutely no. flat is better for gaming, these are very warm and "fun" headphones.
@@AidenFranklin1 Damn, why ??
Since one week I use also 990 PRO 80 Ohm and this headphone is meeega
@@mr.y1965 I'm also still using them. Best headphones for this budget
