After DT1770 Pro , DT1990 Pro once again affirmed Beyerdynamic ‘s class . If you’ve ever looked at, or tried DT1770 Pro before, you’ll find the DT1990 Pro is the same, the same housing design and mechanical structure. The difference is that the Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro is an open design, promising to bring a more spacious listening space, a cooler feeling, two earpads in the box of the DT1990 Pro are made of velvet, the inside is quite soft, However, according to Beyerdynamic recorded in the User Manual, although it is made of but two earpads will give two different sound quality, I will say more clearly in the evaluation of sound quality.
I like to look at the DT1990 Pro, I don’t know why, perhaps because of the gaps and metal meshes that make the DT1990 Pro look more delicate and youthful, the overall aesthetic is very harmonious. DT1990 Pro was aimed at sound engineers, professional users and audiophiles who love accurate and technically sound quality. Open design but practical when used, the sound from the driver is not too loud, so it does not cause too much discomfort for people around. The box of DT1990 Pro is a hard box, outside is covered with high-grade leather.
The Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro has a dynamic driver with its famous Tesla technology magnet. It is not clear whether the same Tesla 2.0 technology is used on the DT1770 Pro or not but these two have quite a different sound quality. DT1990 Pro has a larger soundstage and a more spacious playing space, a little thicker than the DT1770 Pro and is a bit darker. Strangely, because people thought that headphones designed close, the sound would be dark and warm, bass more than open but with headphones like Audeze LCD X and XC, EL8 Close and EL8 Open, the Open headphones are due to the thick, Warmer and flattering than the closed version, the DT1990 Pro and DT1770 Pro are similar. DT1990 Pro also uses a cord with a mini-XLR 3pin, easily replaced by another carrier for better, Furutech iHP-35X is a good idea, to be honest, Furutech’s cord is very good for money.
