Beyerdynamic DT 900 PRO X Professional Studio Headphones - Open Back Design for Mixing & Mastering | Renewed Premium Quality | Perfect for Home Studios, Podcasting & Audio Production

This was a great deal on brand new headphones. They were still sealed in the original unopened box. The box was slightly beat up, so maybe that's why they're not sold as new, but the headphones and included long and short cables were not damaged at all. I purchased these for gaming since they have an open back design and a wide soundstage so should (and do) work well for positional audio. I ran several frequency sweep tests from 10 Hz >> 200 Hz and 22 kHz >> 8 kHz and they respond as they should with no distortion or rattling. They are also easy to drive, so a headphone amp is not necessary, but still recommended for the best quality audio. My Magni works well with them.My hearing is not what it used to be, but these certainly sound great for gaming and music and have a relatively neutral sound without the super heavy bass that cheaper headphones usually emphasize, so game audio and music is heard as the creators intended. Being open back, they do leak sound both in and out, so I wouldn't recommend these for use in a noisy or public environment. They fit my large head well and have thick ear cushions and soft headband foam for comfort. They are a bit tight, but most new headphones are at first on my wide noggin.Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase. They are well worth the money at this price and sound much better than the RGB encrusted gaming headsets that many peripheral companies sell. I used an antlion modmic to add a microphone to them. I also learned that all parts are available to purchase from beyerdynamic incase something breaks, so you don't have to throw them away like cheaper headphones either.
