The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- Open-back design means sound leaks out, so people nearby will hear what you're listening to. This is the tradeoff you accept to get that spacious, detailed sound.
- The 80-ohm impedance works with most audio interfaces and home stereo setups without needing special amplification, making them more flexible than higher-impedance studio headphones.
- They're relatively lightweight and come with replaceable ear pads, so you can wear them for hours without discomfort and keep them going for years.
As of Aug 15, the beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO is a good price at $159.99 — versus a $190.70 typical price and a $80 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
