beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO MKII Studio Headphones

The beyerdynamic DT 1990 PRO MKII is a wired, open-back over-ear studio headphone designed for mixing, mastering and editing. Its TESLA.45 dynamic driver is specified at 30 ohms: TESLA.45 is the technology name, not a 45-ohm impedance rating. The MKII must also be distinguished from the older 250-ohm generation. The open construction allows sound to escape and room noise to enter, so it is more suitable for a quiet studio than isolated live monitoring. A detachable single-sided mini-XLR cable connection supports replacement and transport, and the manufacturer lists 3 m straight and 5 m coiled cables. The padded headband incorporates a fontanelle recess intended to reduce pressure at the top of the head. This listing contains the MKII headphones rather than a microphone, audio interface or recording package. Bluetooth and battery-powered operation are not part of the design.
