Would you recomend this product for beyerdynamic dt990 premium headphones with the 600 ohm cord?

Generally, I would say yes. Right now, I use the Beyerdynamic dt880 pros with my Valhalla along with a Bifrost DAC. However, my headphones are of the 250 Ohm model, so you may want to invest in a more powerful amp. I know Schiit was a Lyr model and a Mjolnir (if you like solid state) which are definitely more powerful and probably more effective for your setup. Hope this helps.

It Depends On what other alternatives you're considering. For the $$ the Valhalla can't be beat. I'm not a huge fan of tube amps built on pcb boards, but that's a personal thing and has nothing to do with the sonic merits of the amp. I say go for it. You won't find a better built USA made amp for the $$.

I would say no. The comments I've read (on head-fi) say that to get decent output out of high-impedance cans you'll have to use something more powerful. If going the vacuum route, that might be the Schiit Lyr or Asgard 2. I am using my Valhalla with 32 ohm headphones so can't comment on how it sounds with 600 ohm headphones connected.

I cAn imagine that it will be a nice match: I have Sennheiser HD800 (300 Ohm) and they simple belong together with Valhalla.

I had never tried it with the beyerdynamic dt990. However, I have listen to it for months with a Sennheiser HD580 (300 ohm headphone) and it is a perfect! I also have a Grace Headphone DAC+amplifier (m902), which is a almost US$ 2000 headphone and the Valhalla sounds better! In fact, I have never listen to a better headphone amp in my life. This product is designed to high impedance headphones. It is very dynamic and musical. Hope this helps.

From their website: What headphones does Valhalla work best with?Beyer 600 ohm models and Sennheiser 300 ohm headphones are best-think high-impedance when you're thinking about Valhalla. Yes, we have plenty of people using Valhalla with low-impedance headphones, but the best match is with high-impedance cans.So yes.

I have dt990 250ohm, and UDAC2 works just fine. I've never tried dt770, but I think it's similar. I only have to turn the volume half way and it sounds great to me. I'm not a audiophile, but... just my two cents.

I agree. I found the G4ME One to be uncomfortable and therefore returned them. I am using a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro's and find them to be extremely comfortable and superior sound quality. They are also open as that is what you really need for an expansive sound stage. I would try the HD 598 and see how they fit and perform. Other than the mic, looking for a quality headset is imperative, not only for gaming, but especially for music, movies, etc. Good Luck

Hi, this unit sounds amazing with my Sennheiser HD250 headphones, which are also rated at 300 ohms. It is an amazing piece of gear.

I would test it without the cord. Pc or ps4 and see if that's better if not than its either the base or headset. Either way it's defective, if it is better then yes 2.5 to 3.5 for standard hheadphone jack.

Well all the headphones you listed don't need an amp. I'd probably Recommend the Beyerdynamic DT770s for a closed headphone. Or if you are using it at home the DT990.

I bought this product for my Sony MDRXB400 headphones and they fit perfectly. There's still extra room left and I've seen most Sony MDR models and think most would fit in this case. Not entirely sure if the 900 is bigger than the ones I have and if so, by how much. Hope this helps!

it's an excellent choice, especially for smaller desks/laptop use. I use mine exclusively with this set-up. for its size, the device is fairly powerful to drive higher-ohm headphones.

Definitely. The dt770 are the best isolating headphones I've owned. Now be aware the 250ohm model will need an amplifier. If you don't want to use an amp get the 32ohm version Or 80ohm version. The lower the ohm the less need for an amp.

Yes, perfectly!!! I LOVE my Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro and am very happy that I purchased this case to keep them safe. The case is big enough that I can also fit extender chord inside as well.

There is no hole in the bottom that a straight connector could go thru. However the sides at the bottom edge are open and if your headphones have a right-angle connector it might work.

Yes, to change it for a longer/shorter cord based on your needs, or to replace JUST the cord, not the whole headphones, in case you are like me and somehow always tend to ruin the cords ;].

I use this with the HD 650 (300 ohm), this amplify the sound for weaker media players that can't provide much output power to the headphones, or to complement media players that need an extra boost in power output. This also provides a bass and treble boost if desired.

The Sennheiser 598s connector to the headphone is a 2.5mm plug so this 3.5mm would not fit. It's possible to find an adapter, but I am not sure if it would be fully functional still. Edit: I actually don't think it will be possible unless you make a custom locking 2.5mm adapter head since that is the only one that appears to fit. I just tried putting a very thin 2.5mm xbox cable into my 598s and they would not fit in.

It will do better than the standard headphone out on your computer or smartphone but I don't think it's designed to drive high impedance headphones. Having said that, I have no actual experience.

Well I jut use them with my Band and Olufsen H6 that are high fidelity headphones. They improve the performance of my headphone for sure its a complete difference. I use as source my Mac book pro and a optical cable. I love it but be careful not to get the volume to high you can damage your headphones. So buy it but, be careful of not pushing your headphones to the limit.

I believe you will be able to use this product with your new headphones - although I do not know the type of headphones or laptop brand - however the only problem I could foresee you encountering would be if you are using a bulky phone case (I.e. Lunatik, Otterbox, etc,) the adapter does have issues plugging directly into your phone although I don't think you will have any issues plugging into a laptop headphone jack. You should be ok with this purchase based on my limited info.
