Incredible video, honestly speechless was expecting you'd have 570k subs and not 570 subs
Thank you very much, Daniel! I am glad you enjoyed the video. Hope you'll enjoy the next ones, as well!
literally was thinking this
Omg I thought the same
amazing video
Lol same here! So I subbed
Comparison starts at 3:30
I saw this comment and clicked it when I was literally at 3:30 lol

Thank you kind sir...
GOATED
Amazing video, just what I was looking for! I was already stuck between the DT770 and the DT990, because I work a lot in the radio business. But the line from frequency response of the DT770 seems a bit more flat, which in my opinion is better because then you’ll hear everything great. So the DT770 it is! Thank you so much!
How is the low end?
@@matan2903 bought them both and the low end is better on the dt 770.
The 990's maybe have more clear and detailed low end but you can't hear it as well because of how it's tuned, the highs are really REALLY loud at least for me and it ruins my listening experience and when mixing it leaves me with ringing ears on full volume unlike the 770s.
sorry for being late btw.
@@studderistThanks, mate
@@user-rr6wc3to3j no problem, just remember everyone hears stuff differently and whats good for me might not be good for you
true reliability is the main trait of kse1500, smth casual listeners might not need, or want
After much googling and confusion you cleared it up for me really well. Good job and thanks!
this is the best review I could find hands down. thanks a ton man 🙏🏻🙏🏻
For a very specific usecase, if anyone here has Sound ID Reference, grab the DT990. You get the better soundstage of the DT990 and Sound ID Reference can correct the DT990 to sound flat. Even flatter than the 770.
Hey there, I'm looking for the best pair of headphones out of these:
1) DT990 Premium (600 ohm)
2) DT990 Premium (250 ohm)
2) DT990 Pro (250 ohm)
3) DT880 Pro (250 ohm)
4) DT770 Pro (250 ohm)
Could you please suggest me the best option from the list??
*I have a Sound Blaster G6 and my primary requirements are gaming, movies and music.*
@@princesmith8008 gaming? buy a 20$ headphones so, because you don't need to spend a lot of money only for gaming
Very clear explanation, helped me make the decision between the two. Thank you for making this video Andrew! 🌸🌹🌸
Glad I could help! Enjoy your new headphones!
Your assessment on flatter frequency response for DT770 being better for mixing and mastering over the better soundstage from DT990 makes perfect sense.
@Ashley Wright They are not extremely V-Shaped tho thyre quite flat, they are used by a lot of people for mixing for that reaosn.
@@DanielLopez-up6os lol. No they're not at all flat. If you think so, you might wanna get your hearing checked.
They sound great, but no where near flat. As mentioned above, the HD 280 Pro by Sennheiser is a good, cheap "relatively flat" headphone.
@@modvind the can you mention is closed back, only good for recording and tracking. While mixing, mastering, we need semi open or open back, so dt990 can is good option.
@@StaffViet2009 You don't "need" semi-open or open headphones for that. The 990s are a great example of that; not very flat at all. Although, they do have amazingly fast dirvers, and great trancient response. But the tonal balance is so off, I can't trust them for anything but fine details.
If you want to mix and master properly, monitors are your best tool anyway, in a proberly treated room, of course ;)
@@modvind hmm...good advice, but my primary concert is mobility with less compromise, because i spend less time at home, want to get my music quick to cilent. I also hear closed back is bad for ear health on long listening time, open back is much breath taking..?
Appreciate this video. I was trying to find something for this exact comparison but didn't know which way to go.
Super professional work man, hope you can keep up the good work
I'm listening to your video through my new DT-770 Pros. Love 'em!
Really great video, you answered all the questions I had and didn't know I would have!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
The intro got me 100% HAHAHA like and abo go on you're doing great!
I purchased the DT 770 Pro 80 Ohms a few weeks ago and I use them exclusively for....wait for it.....listening to music! They are fantastic for that - dynamic, punchy when it needs to be, clear and articulate. And I love the fact that it has real sub-bass and none of it bleeds into the lower midrange so they are non-muddy. Also, for closed backs, the soundstage is incredible.
And yes, I know, this - and the 990 - are always marketed as headphones for mixing, mastering, recording, editing, etc, etc. But no one talks about using them for listening to music. I don't want a pair of headphones that glosses over any imperfections. The way that songs are recorded is the way that they are recorded. I want musical truth and the 770 gives it to me. I can still appreciate the artistry and talent of the musicians and they can still convey their ideas regardless of how it was recorded, mixed, edited, etc. The 770 allows me to hear the artists and engineers' intent at that moment in time and that's special to me.
am thinking about buying them to listen to music and play some games, would you recommend them?
@@noahmikk-_-7012 I would
Did you need an amp to drive the dt770 80ohms?
@@gnanasekaran_shanmuugam you don't need one necessarily if your device can output enough mW to drive them. Sometimes, if I'm being lazy, I'll just plug it directly into my MacBook and it's perfectly fine. But when I'm needing a little more "presence", I do have a couple headphone amps I could plug them into.
@@gnanasekaran_shanmuugam i don’t think an amp is necessary
Amazing vid. You've helped me make up my mind and go for the 990s
This is such a good and informative video. It really helps me going on with my research. Thanks for the content! :)
Glad I could help, Koen!
I just wanted to drop a line and say this was super helpful - I was searching for a new pair of supplement my Sennheiser PC37X headset for better media consumption at my computer. I liked the deep sub-bass the DT770 offered, but I'm also partial to open-backs for the sound stage and maintaining a loose awareness of my surroundings (e.g. my cat mewing to go in/out); my fear was I would loose some of the bass since open-backs *are* typically flatter. Glad to know that if anything, the opposite is the case, so I'm confident the DT990 are better for my use case.
Bought the DT 770 80 ohm and absolutely love them! Casual listening is a dream and sound very similar to my car system...so they are great for me when referencing mixes without having to jump in my car much. BUT...I am patiently waiting for the DT880...I feel these are underrated and rarely talked about in detail...but we'll see.
Do you need a amp for the 80ohm?? They sound low volume connected to my iPhone via Apple dongle
car speakers what lol bro, they are not similar bro 🤣
Maybe you need DT 770 Pro 32 Ohm
Ffs whats the difference between 80 ohm and the 250. Why tf does all this have to be so unnecessarily complicated.
@@ghostfrieza2904 from my understanding, I think the lower the ohm’s the less power it takes to drive the headphones to full volume. When you go lower in ohm’s it introduces some distortion as opposed to the high ohm’s, which provides more detail but less volume. At that point you’ll need a headphone amplifier to drive the sound up.
Thank you for this video. solved all the complexity in my mind. glad to have you.
Glad it helped! Enjoy your headphones, whichever you end up getting! ✌️
Fantastic video, that’s exactly the explanation and comparison I needed. Thanks a lot👍🏻
Really helpful video, now I know which one to get! Thank you!
Thank you, Valzo! Glad you found it useful!
this was the perfect video for me. you deserve way more subs than 1.1k
Glad you found it useful! Good luck 🤞
Thanks bro for detailed reviews 🙏
No problem Joseph! Glad I could help🤘
I have the 770s for about a year. Today at Guitar Center, I A/B'd the 770 & 990.
The 990 s have a much fuller sound. I immediately preferred the 990 over the 770.
Guitarded center does not have an adequate amp for the 80, let alone 250 ohm cans.
@@scottlowell493 what? Have you been to a guitar center? They have anywhere from $200-$600 preamps. And if you're referring to actual amps they have anything you'd want. You don't need a 1k amp to power a $160 set of 80ohm headphones...
Yeah in my case, a 30 euros mackie does the job and I'm only using 1 of the 4 jacks it has@@Relax-il7zn
Oh wow, I thought the same as well, I thought I was watching a video from a 100k+ subscriber channel! Great video man! I'll most likely be going for the 770 version. I've seen on other videos that the 80 Ohm is best for us regular sound loving people. while the 250 Ohm is for sound experts/audio engineer type people because they know what to do with it. I could learn something from your video production, good stuff!
Good detailed review my guy
Thank you!
Such a good video bro, this deserves a sub
Thank you very much! I appreciate it!
Great video Andrew. I just looking at the DT990 earlier but I needed an honest review, and I got it. Now I know I was on the right track (no pun intended) for what I need.
Glad you found it useful, John! Good luck if you end up getting the DT 990!
Thank you for the detailed presentation. Excellent! Very informative video!
Glad it was helpful, Thomas!
Excellent comparison video
I own both (80ohm) for music production and I still do not know which I like better. I rarely reach for headphones but when I do I tend to use the 770's for tracking & sound design due to the isolation and use the 990's for more critical decisions for mixing & mastering. Both will do either job quite well albeit maybe not as well as higher priced headphones like Audeze or Sennheiser's HD series.
I found the DT 990 Pro beat some headphones that are double their price. Beyerdynamic manufacturers them since ages, with the occasional update. That is why their price is not upper range, but their sound is. Sennheisers for the same price do not beat them, I think
I like Sennhieser for music. listening, but can't vouch that they belong in a studio.
awesome video! awesome editing! Keep it up!
Thank you, Mr. Kim!
Merci beaucoup, je viens de passer 2h a chercher tout les comparatifs et tests possible avant de tomber sur cette vidéo! Top
Avec plaisir 👍
Just bought 770's online and they're for my Roland TD17KXV Drumkit. The module with the Roland recommends Headphones in the 50-150 Ohm range so I might have bitten off more than I can chew with the 770 250 Ohm version but if that's the case, I will get a small amp to boost the sound and quality. Great video!
Hey I have the 770pro 250omh and I use them with the soundblaster g7 dacamp to power them and it works great. Anything over 40 volume is too loud
Great review + I am 600th subscriber, damn
Thank you! Hope you will enjoy the next videos, too!
Great video bro had always wanted to try beyers for djjng so going for the 770 as they're flatter...which I think is important for me...
I use a DT770 and I'm very satisfied. I tried a DT990 in the store, and I liked the DT770 better.
Great video, thanks Andrew.
Glad you found it useful, Umberto! Good 🤞
Thanks brother for the video, ill go for the 990 :D u helped me choose
Nice comparison review. Cheers.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
just bought the DT770 Pro 80ohm and a Onyx interface, i’m producing electronic music and IDM/breaks/dnb etc.. Cannot wait to get these tomorrow and play with them over the weekend ✌🏽✌🏽 Thanks so so much for this video, always the best thing watching the reviews/unboxings etc before they arrive (tomorrow)
how is it?
How are they? lol
@@kakerusatsuki8791 they are Absolutely great!! Very bright and colourful, extremely pleasing flat sound, nice and comfortable. ear fatigue is inevitable tho after a good few hours.
@@spencerbott4 Worth the money and extremely accurate. almost too accurate (kidding)
@@user-hc5tv6yk9t thnx for the answer, I am between the open-back version of this and audio technica ath m50x.
that was exactly why I came to this video. Thank you so much
Glad you found it helpful! Good luck
You stated the exact opinions I was forming myself! I bought both and am returning one pair. Primarily I will be making beats, music, and recording VoiceOver. While the 990 do feel more comfortable (the pads are actually different on the two pairs if you take them off and look... they're softer on the 990), the low/mid cut and the high boost is not conducive to mixing music like you said. I am going to keep the 770s and maybe even try putting the 880/990 pads on them if it doesn't affect the sound too much.
yeah any pros wouldnt want any colorization on their system
subscribed and also shocked how you have 571 and not 571k.. Wtf. Amazing content
Thank you very much! I am glad you enjoyed this one and I hope you'll like the following videos, as well!
Great Intro, you described my exact situation lol.
Really informative video! Enjoyed watching and understanding throughout. I am thinking to get myself 770s, but confused whether I should go for 32 Ohms or 80 Ohms with an audio interface. My main purpose here is to mix the music.
Thank you, Amol! I would go with the 80 ohms version, mainly because I love the velour pads they come with :)
One thing I’ve found interesting about my 770’s which are the 250 Ohm flavor, is that with a flat eq, there is a slight bit more bass than say a deeper more bass heavy eq, I’m running them off of my IPad with a Fiio BTR3K Dac/amp, then put through a cheap portable amp with gain/bass switches and I’m absolutely in love with them
Do you happen to run them out of the 2.5 balenced output?
Amazing video
Nice review. Just subscribed
Glad you found it helpful. Hope you'll also enjoy the upcoming videos!
Good vid dawg
i really like your videos man! so freaking helpful! u deserve so many subs
I appreciate that! Hope you'll enjoy the next ones, as well!
thanks for the very good video!
Thank you for this. You confirmed that i made the right choice (for me) going with the 770's.
Very good video man good work keep on doing this good videos man.
Edit: You seem very nice man
Bought the DT990 in (wait for it) 1990.
In short they are bullet proof!!!
Very well made. I've used them both at home and whilst traveling.
They do stand the test of time in both quality of construction & sound quality. Admittedly they do need driving with higher volumes from more modern portable devices but saying that they do deliver. Spares are available and I think in all the time I have had them I have replaces the ear foams once and the foam inlays.
All in all if you want tip top quality go for them ...
Wow, that's awesome to hear. Your DT990's are older than me, can't find many other products that can last that long and still be fully functional and relevant. I hope mine will get to be this age as well. Thanks for sharing!
I'm almost 100% certain the modern dt-99'0s are different.
agree, they are built like a tank even though they may not look the part.
my first the DT770 lasted me over 13 years all be it i did change the headband 2 times, both earpads 3 times the left driver(speaker) once and the cable once, over time. out of these replacement parts the driver was most expensive coming in around 48 - 55 euros.
last week the right driver stopped working which made me sad in a way. was hoping it would last a little longer.
but that made me decide to buy a fresh DT770 yet again.
fun fact i remember paying roughly 240 euros for my first DT770, nowadays the basic model (80 Ohm) cost around 150 euros.
Great video man! Keep doing what you're doing, this really helped me pick a set of headphones 👍
Glad I could help! Enjoy your new headphones :D
Thanks for the great review. Gonna grab 770 after all :) not a problem to buy 990, but seems for production I’ll need 770
Glad I could help! Good luck and let us know what you think when they arrive! :)
Subbed broh nice video❤️
Great video.
Great Video 👍
I’m going to go with the 770’s since I will need to be recording a lot of guitar and vocals. Them being such good mixing headphones as well is the cherry on top for me
Sounds like they are perfect for you! Have fun with them and record some killer tracks! Good luck 🤞
LOL, good mixing headphones? They are fabulous headphones, but their sound is very colored. So they are not suitable for mixing unless you use something like SoundID Reference to "fix" that.
@@user-gh9iw1of2y the DT770s have been the most popular mixing headphone since they were introduced in the 70s lol. Not necessarily the best, you can always buy more expensive and better headphones, but these are flat-out the best in the market for $150
@@kadenielsen210 Bass and treble response are so hyped on these headphones. LOL. Try to use them with the SoundID application or something similar, and you will understand it. I don't care who and when used them. I trust my ears and common sense.

Any proofs or technical specs to support your statement? DT 990 PROs sound better, and they cost the same.

Great video! I got a used pair of 770s a couple of months ago. Now a used pair of 990s is for sale in my town (for 50€!) so I think I will have to pick them up as well.
Both pairs are the 250 Ω version, I'm using an Objective headphone amp.
How are the 990s?
you nailed that intro haha :D
Thanks🤘
Best comparison of these 2 cans on youtube ever!
Thank you. I really appreciate it!
Bro the intro was so on point 😂
I’m going to go with the 770s. They should be coming in the mail by tomorrow!
@Em0 Thats whats up. I would love to hear some of your music.
Hi Andrew, I have a set of Hifiman Sundara's among several other open back cans (Senn HD599, Fidelio X2HR, AKG 7XX). I have a couple closed back cans but not very high quality (Blue MixFi, Mackie MC100). I love the sound of the open backs, but sometimes I like to listen to them in bed and that's a problem with open backs (one ear cup gets covered if I lay on my side). Do you think I'd be happy with the DT700 250 ohm as far as detail and treble or are the kind of dull sounding compared to the DT900? Thanks much :-)
I have the 990s and i LOVE them!
I've got the DT990 PRO for a very long time (bought them for CS:GO) now i dont play games where i need to hear the steps and when there is someone sleeping next to me i will get the DT770 PRO also. Thanks for this awesome Review!
Glad I could help! Enjoy them both ❤️
I'd always recommend getting both yourself and personally testing them, headphones are incredibly subjective, from the comfort to the sound quality. If you want a pair of headphones for mixing you shouldn't go for either in my opinion, the HD 560s are far better for that, but they are boring to listen to.
I have both headphones & use them via Zen dac + laptop. I mostly use the Dt990 250ohm because I like the open back presentation of music/sound Like I am sitting infront of the band/orchestra. While the other DT770 80ohm has a more in your head/mind sound, still very pleasant but can be a little intense on some sounds. Fortunately I have not experienced this sharp treble attack on most music as often commented on by reviewers on youtube in relation to both models.
I am looking for my first pair of headphones, and this shap treble attacks is something I really am afraid of! the DT990 pro is also my top choice right now, and I've compared it to the likes of HD600, AKG K702, all of which is powered through a Fiio K3 amp. By zen dac I assume u mean the Ifi zen dacs ?and also how is ur experience from owning the DT990s
@@hongwei4809 Yes I use an Ifi Zen Dac, really nice solid DAC with a very nice sound (for me atleast...) I use the DT990's, as you probably are aware it is an open back headphone and the sound for me is satisfying to say the least, the SQ serves well with most genres of music (from pop to jazz to Classical music to heavy rock to all acoustics arrangements including music from Arabia, Middle East, Europe) and I use it for Netflix films and all other programmes. It is also comfortable to wear for long periods...
@@Romulus980 Hey man appreciate the reply even though the comment was almost a year ago!
Thanks so much for that, it's great knowing you really enjoyed them even though it's been a whole year. i'm looking to get the ifi zen dacs as well, I hope they are able to hold up with any future headphones.
I primarily listen to alot of Indie, rock, pop and rap/black music, with the occasional jazz as well. The cables not being detachable is abit of a bummer, but it's pretty affordable as of now.
Im glad you mentioned the treble not being as harsh because that was the only issue i had before i buy them. Ive got a phase filter on my amp which i was thinking as a possible fix anyway. Cheers
I had the 990s for about 3 years and the cable pulled out internally which entirely stopped them from working! It's been a few years but after this review, I might have to order myself a soldering iron...
you can fix it. you only need a screwdriver and soldering device.
i did my research before buying my 770 i like the closebacks because i can be more immersed while i listen to my music
Shoutout to you for using the metrics for the global audience!
Great Video Andrew, so much info ... I have bought the DT770 Pro 250 they are amazing headphone, I use a Neumann TLM102 so need the closed back (no feedback :-)
I'm glad you found it useful, Mark. Enjoy your new headphones!
I love your video. I've just ordered the TD990 Pro 250 ohm for casual listening using a tube amp with a headphone stage. Just a note: the coiled cable is 1.5m, and is 3m straight (when stretched).
Nice Ivan, glad you found the video helpful. Did they arrive? How do you like them?
Dude, stop spying on me! Your opening line was EXACTLY why I’m here.😁
I was the 200th like and you earned it
Thank you very much!
I just hope you can continue your youtube journey.
Hey man, really appreciate the vid, I'm compelled to get the 250 ohm impedance headphone for mixing and mastering, do u think my audio interface will be able to run these headphones loud enough , it's the new Maudio Air 2|2, the black ones.
Great video! (chose the DT770s and they're great!)
Glad you're enjoying them! Thanks for watching :)
I have a pair of DT-770's and I am very satisfied With them.
I know I’m very late but I’m stuck between both of these headphones. Also the hifiman he x4 and the tygr 300r I have no amp and don’t plan on getting one if you had to pick between these options for someone who plays Dota 2 and plays music 24/7 what would you pick or suggest for me?
thank you for this video
Thank you for watching
Great vid thank you
Thanks!
Great video! Thank you very much! I plan to use them for gaming and would prefer the 990 version for the wider soundstage. But... most of the time I play online and I also need a microphone. Could the sound being emitted through the open back be a problem for speaking through an external microphone? I want to be able to hear all the details (footsteps, etc.), but it's also important that other players can hear me clearly.
If your external microphone is a dynamic, no way. If you go with a LD condenser, depending on your positioning and how loud you push your headphones, maybe? But under normal circumstances (normal headphone level, usual mic position, good threshold setting or push-to-talk on your chat app), no, people won't hear your headphones through your mic. I use this exact setup to game and got no complaints. Hope this helps!
Thanks for the video. Frequency spikes/humps/dips can be smoothed out by acoustic modeling software like Sonarworks. The one thing I wish they'd have as an option is a straight (non-coiled) cable. - Coiled cables are a nightmare in a busy recording studio. They pull on your head and get tangled with everything.
80ohm version of the 990 don’t have coiled cables. Beyerdynamics have said themselves that the difference in quality is less than noticeable.
The 32 ohm versions have short cables.
I have the 770s and wondered for a while if the 990s would have been a better choice for mixing and mastering due to the conceptions you mentioned, so this video was really useful, but I'm still interested in getting a pair of open-back headphones and would love to know which ones you would go for instead of the 990s in the same range.
If you like the general sound signature of your DT 770, there's a chance you won't be a Sennheiser fan, since they go for a quite different sound signature (at least from what I heard in headphones in that price range), so I would try to look into something from AKG or Audio Technica as starting points, since they have well regarded open-back models in that price range.
@@odysseyofcuriosity you're spot on with the sennhiser opinion, I never liked sennhiser, and trying them at my local store, i realise that the instrumental/backgrounds are often very muddy, and it seems to be lacking in clarity and sharpness. nonetheless the soundstage is very intimate, and the vocals are simply amazing.
I’ve fallen asleep with my 770’s on all night and my ears don’t hurt in the morning, the only thing thats ever been weird with them to me, was the first day I got them, and that was the circular shape not completely sealing on my ears but that went away pretty quickly
i can´t DECIDE !!!!!!!! But thanks for input.
I already have the DT 770 Pro (which are not even mine, they are from my bandmate)
And i personally love the closed back and to be cut off my environment.
But in my research i found out that open backs will be more clear, so in fact better for mixing. That makes it hard for me to decide.
I will sleep until black friday and reevaluate my decision process!
Thanks ! Great on point and informative Video!
@Reid James got the dt 1990 pro open backs and im happy with them.
keep in mind that ciem is still ciem, it has that sound/fun not found on universals, even headphone
smth like stronger and more precise smth along those
Very helpful thank. I think I will get the 80 ohm 770’s
Thank you so much man.
I always hear that for my mixing and general music production I should get 990s but I have a giant noisy pc next to me which made me confused about which one was actually better for me.
I think I will choose the 770s now that I know that they aren't actually much worse for music production and mixing :)
The benefits of a wider soundstage (due to open back headphones) don't weigh that much when there is a lot of noise in your environment. While producing, it's much more important to be able to clearly hear what you are working on, even if this means settling for a more confined presentation. If your PC is very noisy and you can't to anything about it, just go with the DT770. Good luck!
For Gaming and casual Music listening the DT 770 Pro (80 Ohm) is an absolute Gem.
Helpful video! What did you mean by EQ correcting the headphones? How do you do that?
Glad you found it useful! I have a video explaining how to to exactly that. You can check it out on this channel, it's called "Make your headphones flat for free". I tried to explain and show the entire process there (it's rather simple, really).
About cables. Everyone says that fixed cable is downside. But I have faced couple removable cable connector failure with AudioTechnicas but I haven't still broken DT770 cable. So I guess that fixed cable is not downside. To be honest I find earcup padding to be most common failure point on these bit better headphones. I know that cables go with low-end but in this price point they seem to be pretty solid.
I'm very happy with my 770 250 ohm. For some rason, my laptop can handle them directly into the sound interface which is great, but I also have a proper interface for my main PC.
Yes, the lows are not too strong, the highs are clear, but I use an eq for my PC and color a bit the lows. Just a little bit.
Thanks Andrew
Loved your video! Having seen it, and the comments makes me thinking im going to get a pair of 770s, but what ohms whould i get? Does it make a huge difference? I have a focusrite scarlett solo 3rd gen as interface. Hope you have time to answer my questions!
The Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen doesn't pair very well with high impedance headphones, so I would go with the DT770 80 ohms in your case. The DT770 250 ohms will not get very loud with this Scarlett, as its headphones output is not very powerful. So get the 80 ohms and you'll love them. Good luck 🤞
Thank you so much, this is exactly what i needed to know! Almost cant wait for them to get home. I really appreciate you taking time to answer. Keep up the amazing work Andrew!
awesome, always wanted to get my headphones reviewed by Frodo
