Hi all,
Recently, I had a chance to try out DT880 Edition/premium 250/600 ohm (already returned) and DT990 Edition 600 ohm (currently own). At least to my ear, their bass are almost the same, though DT880 is a bit tighter (and faster?).
Upgrading from AD700x which is my daily driver for 2 years, I want to try something new in term of sound signature, that's why I returned Dt880 because they're pretty similar to 700x, to the point that I consider 880 is a direct upgrade from 700x. Now that I got 990 and surprisingly, nothing stands out. I have no complaint about their sound quality, they just don't live up to my expectation.
FYI, in case anyone assumes that I'm a bass head, AD700x is a bass-anemic pair, and I still love it.
My source: Laptop (mainly Youtube - maybe this is the case?) => Topping D10 => Atom amp.
Did I miss something here? Any suggestion aside from EQ-ing?
