The DT 990 Pro are one of Beyerdynamic's old standard closed headphones. They're durable, comfortable, and sonically pleasing, with slightly strident highs and good bass. At 250 Ohms, they ask too much for a portable, so an amp is recommended. Less

Pros Very smooth sounding, intense level of comfort
Cons very power-hungry, white velvet earpads, look kinda goofy
Recommended it? No

I need to start with a small preface, I love sound, I'm obsessed with it, and I listen to sound all day and all night on all different speakers and TV's and car systems. Due to my audiophile nature it is very possible there are things that would bother me in a set of headphones that most people... Read full review »

Pros Nice Bass Smooth overall sound Comfortable to wear Sturdy
Cons None

I've owned this pair of headphones for 14 years now (I have the DT 990, not the pro, the only difference are the pads though). I dragged it back and forth between the US and Europe, and used it on a daily basis in the office for several years. It's still alive and kicking - and by kicking I MEAN... Read full review »

Pros Professional Sound and Quality!
Cons The Price!
Recommended it? Yes

The reason for buying headphones is usually so someone else doesn't have to listen to what you want to listen to. The Sennheiser HD-600 will change your mind, they actually can produce a better sound then some speakers.

For the Gamers the HD-600 gives you a sound that most speakers can't... Read full review »

Sennheiser HD-600: A source of revelation!

byquadophile Dec 30, 2006
39 Helpfuls 40 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Highly revealing, excellent dynamics, authoritative, exceptional build quality
Cons None, except price for some.
Recommended it? Yes

High-end sound for well under $600? You bet! A good pair of headphones and a dedicated amplifier is what you need to connect to your laptop to enjoy true high end sound.

Several years back I had opted for the HD-580's and they not only reproduced music faithfully, but, at the same time... Read full review »
