Key Information About the Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO X Open-Back Monitoring Headphones
- Reference open-back signature for precise mixing, a wide soundstage, and natural stereo imaging.
- ?STELLAR.45? transducer for detailed reproduction, fast transients, and controlled dynamics.
- Versatile 48 Ohm impedance: optimal level with audio interfaces, consoles, and laptops.
- Long-lasting comfort thanks to velour ear pads and a detachable cable via 3-pin mini-XLR.
The Modern Descendant of a Studio Icon
Following the lineage of Beyerdynamic studio headphones, the DT 990 PRO X updates the legacy of the legendary DT 990 by adopting the technology and ergonomics of the PRO X series. It retains the beloved open-back design favored for critical mixing while offering optimized electroacoustic conversion and professional detachable connectivity.
Who Is It For and What For?
The DT 990 PRO X is designed for
sound engineers,
producers, and
creators seeking faithful monitoring for
mixing,
post-production, or editing. Its natural ventilation reduces fatigue during long sessions and facilitates the evaluation of panning, depth, and micro-details without any sense of enclosure.
Monitoring Performance to Support Your Decisions
?STELLAR.45? Transducer: Precision and Power
Engineered to combine sensitivity and control, the STELLAR.45 delivers an extended frequency response from
5 to 40,000 Hz with tight bass, clear mids, and airy highs. Transient attack remains crisp, essential for assessing compression, reverb, and element placement within the stereo field.
Studio Comfort and Endurance
Velour ear pads and a generous headband allow for prolonged wear. The lightweight design at
305 g (without cable) helps keep you cool during marathon sessions, while the open-back construction limits acoustic pressure buildup.
Professional Connectivity and Modularity
The detachable cable via
3-pin mini-XLR secures the connection in the studio and simplifies maintenance. The
48 Ohm impedance ensures a comfortable volume level on most outputs, from mobile interfaces to monitoring controllers, without the need for a dedicated headphone amplifier.
