Not that the 990s are cheap in any way other than price, or that they aren't an excellent value (probably one of the best in the world of headphones).

If you're looking for a great value open headphone, or for a very accurate look at your mixes, these are it

Great value

Amping is recommended!)Value at MSRP: (9/10

Dt990 250 ohm is easily on par with akg701 and hd580It sits between them in tonal balance; more comfortable than the others and at a price pint of 150, it is fantastic value; at usd 200 it would still be good valueEasy to drive with any device incl iPods and stands up to the rigor of deep dive comparisons; truly emjoyable

Great build quality, comfort and great sound make this headphone a good value in this price range

sound amazingly good, have hold just fine for over 2 years, I only replaced the pads after 2 years because the old ones where starting to get dirty, overall a good pair of headphones, and a good value if you get them as me for only $99 on sale

Excellent value for the quality

- I picked this song because Kelly Clarkson has one of the best voices going today, and because it is a modern pop/rock song with modern production value.

I expected better!As far as how they sound, the have a magnificent V shape

Pain as in the headphones squeezed with enough pressure to force one loop through my ear wrong side first, leaving some blood on the cans, my ears and the my shirt so that I was questioned in great detail later (it's

From what I've read on Amazon and on other websites, the sound of these phones will improve as they "burn in".

The reason I'm writing this review is that I assume there are people like me out there who prefer their sound to be in a more powerful U shaped equalization curve.

but when you do these things will shine and are without a doubt the best U curved headphones I've owned.

Has a Lovely and vicious U curve
