beyerdynamic – Studio & audiophile headphones
German audio company since 1924
beyerdynamic has made studio headphones in Germany since 1924 — and the DT 770, DT 990 and DT 1990 ranges are among the most widely used headphones in recording studios worldwide.
The critical point is impedance in ohms: 32Ω works with a phone or laptop, 80Ω needs a decent output, 250Ω requires a headphone amplifier to perform.

Frequently asked questions about beyerdynamic
- What do the ohms mean?
- Impedance. 32Ω plays comfortably from a phone or laptop. 80Ω needs a decent output. 250Ω requires a headphone amplifier — otherwise they sound weak.
- Open or closed back?
- Open, such as the DT 990, gives a wider and more natural sound but leaks outward. Closed, such as the DT 770, isolates and does not disturb others.
- Are they for listening or production?
- Both. They are built for neutral sound — they do not boost the bass, so you hear what is actually in the recording.
- Can the earpads be replaced?
- Yes, and it extends their life considerably — one of the reasons a pair lasts years.
