Our Verdict

Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO

Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO

The main difference between these headphones is type: the Beyerdynamic DT 990 PRO are open-backs, while the Beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO are closed-backs. Open-backed headphones tend to produce a soundstage that feels a little more immersive, but they also leak more audio. Both of these headphones are well-built and offer fairly similar sound profiles, so choosing between them really comes down to whether you're in the market for open-backs or closed-backs.
