I cannot say enough good things about these for the cost.
However, the biggest thing to take note of when buying these headphones is its open-back design, which produces wide, breathtaking sound stage which paramount for tracks with many layers of tracks (symphonic, classical, Wintersun-type stuff).These cans are just amazing, and there is not one thing bad that I can say about them, well maybe the price, but they are honestly well worth it even to a broke college student like me
The balance of lows, mids & highs is perfect and the cool thing is the "layers" (for lack of a better term) of the music, you can mentally see exactly where each instrument is.

The bass extension is not as good as with the balanced pads, but it's still good
I prefer the balanced pads much more because the sound is not cold and dry
The pads are a bit soft and compress easily as a result, so I'm guessing these will need to be replaced periodically due to the notable clamp
The headband has plush padding on the bottom and pleather covering the top in a tastefully simple scheme
side note the A pads are a little softer and bring your ears a little closer to the driver, the B pads seem to be stiffer but after about 3 days they really soften up
I own the HE-400i, Fidelio X1, DT-880, DT-990 Pro, DT-990 Premium, K712, vintage K270 and LCD-2 cans; THESE new Beyerdynamic DT-1990 headphones, with the "critical" earpads installed, are simply the best I have ever heard.
The bass extension is not as good as with the balanced pads, but it's still good
I got the headphones with a bundle containing a free amp (Fiio A5), free hard case and free MicroSD card
Paired with a good DAC/Amp ( I use a Jotunheim), they have been a real joy to listen to.
(I'm using a Schiit setup with a Yggdrasil and LYR2, but I've used the A20 and it's an excellent amp.

It will be doubly cumbersome since most people will need to also carry a portable dac/amp or have a dedicated audio player to use it (I'm driving these headphones with a LG V20, and it's handling the load flawlessly).ComfortFor the most part, these are comfortable stock

Elevated bass over the analytical pads, mid-range is overshadowed ever so slightly by the bass, and treble is just as present as with the analytical pads
Without EQ, the highs are ridiculously and painfully overkill, and the bass from 100Hz down is anemic
The bass extension is not as good as with the balanced pads, but it's still good
basically the A Pad to my ears lands a little more highs, and the treble is perfect, with some very warm and tight bass.
The bass is rich and tight with no muddiness to be seen
Outstanding detail, dynamics, imaging and sound stage are hallmarks of this fine set of headphones
Unbelievable clarity and details.
The bass extension is not as good as with the balanced pads, but it's still good
The Beyerdynamic DT1990 is supplied with 2 pairs of ear cushions, one with 20 vent holes for bass boosting and one with 4 vent holes for best bass detail.
This is just my experience, but I hear details in the low end I didn't percieve at all on most other headphones I have used (with the exception of the DSR9BT, although the DT 1990 is still cleaner) without compromising on volume, which impresses me a lot since the HD600 and cousins mostly fall flat as far as low end goes
To install the 4 vent hole cushions retract the ear cup/headband extensions and remove the installed cushions.
The 20 vent hole pair is the one that comes installed on the headphones and it mechanically tunes up the bass.
If you have tone controls and want more bass detail you then install the 4 vent hole pair.
The only thing of interest here is that the B&O H6 is good for escaping the recording studio's acoustics and the Abyss
