    I recently transitioned from an ASTRO A50 to a DT 990 Pro 250 OHM 2 days ago and first impressions are a BIG Difference in sound quality. It helped me in certain video games like R6 Siege. I have no intention of becoming a mixer or editor, solely as a gamer. and to be honest. it's an awesome upgrade but the price difference is a bit high.

    I know from both a consumer's and a creator's POV, I'm appreciating these "talking head" videos a lot more.
    As a creator, they're much easier to produce without all the editing gymnastics, so it frees up more energy to put into all the other hats you have to wear as a solo creator.
    As a consumer, I'm finding the same conclusion you are -- these just feel more comfortable. High retention editing gets exhausting after a while, and everyone needs to stop trying to be Mr Beast on a budget.
    Maybe it's just me, but substance will always be more important to me than anything, and too much editing can negatively impact the quality of substance in a RUclips video.

      How are you using them? I tried them through a GSX1000 and they are so bad compared to HyperX. There is barely any bass at all and they are so quiet (I had the 80ohm version). I had to crank the volume to 70 (40 on HyperX) to get close to the level I needed to hear anything. And even then there seemed to be so much missing information compared to the HyperX. So I have sent them back.

      @@richeh79 I use the 250ohm versions. Idk anytime I put on gaming headphones they sound fake and unnatural. True the bass isn't going to be overwhelming because its more of a flat response. However thats how the game/audio was intended to be heard so Idk I just go so used to it that every headphone now sounds muddy

      @@cryofreeze9815 I dont like loads of bass, but these seemed so flat it almost felt unnatural - ie explosions felt flat etc. I still have them boxed ready to go, but I've bought an amp to try after watching another video showing the GSX go through an amp then drives these. So I'll try that before making a final decision

  • @richeh79

    I was hugely disappointed with these. I bought them to replace my HyperX Cloud Alpha's and the HyperX blows these out of the water. I tested them on Hunt: Showdown and Cyberpunk through a GSX1000. I also tested my old A40's for a reference. These are marginally better than the Astro's but significantly quieter than the HyperX. And there is little to no bass at all.
    In 7.1 VSS they are crisp but quiet and you lose so much sound information compared to the HyperX. Distant explosions and fire is gone with these. As for footsteps, your own are muffled and difficult to hear so enemies are significantly quieter . In 2.0 setting (recommended for Hunt) they are completely useless. I got the 80ohm version, the HyperX are 65ohm for reference. Sent them back after an hour of testing on games, didnt bother with music as the 2.0 testing on games was barely audible so didnt see the point.

      I googled GSX1000. It doesn't even look like an AMP. Instead, it looks like typical gaming gimmick. Your high-end motherboard back panel onboard audio with AMP probably can do better.
