currently using DT231 for around 3 months. at times i do listen heavy bass songs. so wanna ask what's the best pair to it to boost some bass? i use it mostly with my ASUS AK43S laptop. budget around rm250.

thanks.

I think they best way is to clean up the songs with DAC, and add an amp.

Beyerdynamic DT990 600 Ohm user reporting in! Just received it recently, comparing it head to head with the HiFiMan HE-400 and will be deciding which one to keep. biggrin.gif

Hmm, may I know why? They sound pretty good to me. I bought it to compare against the HiFiMan HE-400. After some burn in time I'll decide which one to keep. biggrin.gif

HE400 and DT990 600ohm are more or less on par...

600ohm is pretty tough to amp... and most I see people use is DT880pro 600ohm, DT990 600ohm rare... Don't know why...

They have different sound signatures though, the DT990 sounds something like my Grado SR80i, bright but with better soundstage. The HE-400 sounds dark in comparison. And yeah, I agree that the DT990 600 is hard to amp. Currently using FiiO E17+E09K for it. Might upgrade later to the O2/ODAC combo. Schiit Lyr would be ideal but its too expensive at the moment. sad.gif

I've heard the DT880 a few years ago in your SS15 shop and I preferred the DT990's sound over the DT880. I guess that's why I went with the DT990 instead. biggrin.gif

It is personnel preference. DT990 supposing to be higher end than DT880 though. Depending on the price tag.
I suggest u go up to Beyer A1 amp level. Fiio E17 is like a kiddo pulling a elephant.

Yeah which is why I got the E09K as well to pair with the E17 to drive the DT990 properly. This is just a temporary solution though, I might return the DT990 and stick with the HE-400 instead. biggrin.gif

T1 is indeed easier to amp. I refused to believe when I went to Jaben when they told me you can actually play T1 direct straight from your iPod (though not recommended) and still audible compared to HD800 or LCD2

Walabies, got any special promo for GS ultra linear? biggrin.gif

Hey guys, I got a DT1350 from Jaben and its awesome, it is just that this headphone although comfortable but gets hot really quickly when worn after an hour. I am looking to upgrade or go for a bigger more comfortable headphone for home usage.

I would like to know which one from Beyerdynamic would compliment well with this headphone? Also I would like to know if there is any difference between the DT880 Pro and the normal DT880. Help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Pro has twisted cable which is heavier

Long duration listening then you need velour pads from dt770, 880, 990

Bought DT770 80 ohm @ Jaben Penang just now. Love the velour pads, it's so comfortable.

Shoppers are kind and they definitely are audiophiles. Also, thanks noobandroid for giving me opinions/advises. smile.gif

THanks for the reply. In terms of sound wise, is there any difference between DT880 pro and the normal ones?
