All I can say is that the T90 are great if you like to bleed from the ears.
I'm kidding, slightly. While they are amazingly clear and detailed, the treble was far too sharp for me. I much prefer the Sennheiser HD6XX. I've also have a DT770 80 Ohm for 10-12 years now, very nice especially if you like bass, but I'm more of an open-back, laid back listening kind of guy.
From what I've read, older people who can't hear the sharp treble tops quite like the T90.

DT 880, in my opinion the only Beyerdynamic headphone (not headset) worth any money considering the competition.

The Custom One Pro Plus are also pretty good. SQ wise they're just a bit beneath the dt770 on the highs but are much cheaper, have replaceable cables, and an adjustable bass port. They're one of my travel sets and work well when I'm at work.

Depends on preferences, objective and constraints. For me it would be a DT880 600ohm.

I agree on the DT880 being the best Beyer in that price range , I would still own it if I hadn't bought a T1. If you won't need closed backs(770) or a strong bass/treble V-sound (990) then it is kind of a no brainer IMO. It's a solid choice for neutral sound with decent soundstage and good extension

For that price tag; Beyerdynamic DT880 600 ohm.
Absolutely.
I own the entire DT line-up.
The 880, at 600 ohms, comes very near to the T1 Tesla.
I love mine, and often reach for it when I could go for my T1's, depends on my listening choices.
I don't think you could go wrong there.
Caveat; you WILL need to have an adequate amp.

Yes, to your amp choices, and giving the DT880 a go would be a very nice choice, as it is very demonstrative of the Beyerdynamic sound sig.
If you really like it, consider moving up to the T1. I think spending the CHUNK of cash required by the T1, as a first trial, would be a mistake, in case you really don't find the Beyerdynamic ss appealing.
I own The Element. It will power the DT's quite adequately, if somewhat clinically. A tube amp mellows the DT ss very nicely.

Looking for a gaming/content audio setup
Hello! I'm looking for recommendations on audio setups. I'd be planning on using it mostly for gaming. Preferably I'd like a pair of large closed back headphones since I have a big head and jaw. I'd also like to hear myself through my mic with mic monitoring. As far as budget goes, I don't really have one. But under 600$ would be nice. I can go higher if needed. The audio setup would be connected to a high performance PC. Thank you in advance for any recommendations!

What would be a good portable Dac/Amp to use with my HD6xx and Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone?
I am new to this hobby. I purchased a HD6XX and plan to use it with my Sony Xperia 1 V cell phone, that has a 3.5mm jack. I was wondering if I needed a portable dac/amp or just a portable amp and if so what would one recommend? Any assistance one could provide, would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, Haz

Invest in Balancing my HD6xx headphones?
Hi... I'm a songwriter/producer. I have Drop Senn HD6xx HPs. I just bought a Topping L30 II SE HP amp to enhance my monitoring. It honestly sounds pretty good. The audio interface I'm using (an Audient iD22) has balanced outs. For those of you who've listened to the HD6xx using balanced amps and cables, do you think I should invest in that kind of setup to take advantage of the Senns potential?

Should I exchange the PC38X for better headphones?
I bought the PC38X headphones FOR GAMING and they are great, but I have NO use for a Microphone since I don't do competitive gaming and I was wondering if there were better headphone options at a similar price without a headphone, where (presumably) more of the cost was put into making it sound better. I also find that my PC38X don't get quite as loud as I would like and I was wondering if a cheap amp like the iFi Go link would draw a little more volume out of my phones. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BN6MM822?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I went with the PC38X since it was considered the best bang for buck headphones. I care most about using spatial apps like DOlby Atmos and DTS Headphone:X. Suggestions are welcome.

New here
Hello, I just joined, primarily for the audiophile products. Looking at purchasing the NHT C3 speakers for our new living room. Space is about 15 feet wide by 33 long and they will fire long ways. Space is just for general listening, music room with all equipment is downstairs, so hoping they will fill it with sound nicely. Cheers.
