Beyerdynamic DT 1770 Pro MKII and DT 1990 Pro MKII announced

Downside is the cable resistance for the coiled cable is way too high (audible effects in stereo imaging) and the headphone is very output resistance dependent
Are they still shielding and grounding the cables? I heard it affects their high end frequencies by a tangible amount, though couldn't hear any difference when decoupling my t1s.
 
Highly unlikely as the return wire would be very low resistance and the issue would not exist.

Shielding won't affect high frequencies its a myth.
Even if shielded cables were used the capacitance would still be far below 1nF and even with a source having a 100ohm output R the -3dB point would still be > 1Mhz.

Besides, if shielding would be a problem around 10kHz then why are all HF cables shielded :)
 
Hello. Please tell me which headphones are better for writing arrangements, production, beats, and easy mixing: the dt1990/1770, the dt1990/1770mk2, or the dt900 pro x? Some people recommend the 1770 because it doesn't have a sharp top and has plenty of bass, but is this true? Please share your thoughts and opinions.

900 pro x is the most neutral of the mentioned ones and would be my choice when no isolation is needed. Otherwise the 700 pro x, which is a tad too forward between 1 and 2 k.

If you have to choose between Дт1770/1990мк2?

Very likely the 1990 but even the mkII is quite treble heavy, albeit a bit less than its predecessor. The original 1770 lacked a bit clarity, the mk2 is better in that regard, but bassier and a bit treble heavy too.
If no isolation is needed I'd almost always go for the open back. But I'm not much of a bass head, so your mileage may vary.
 
Скорее всего, 1990, но даже у MkII довольно высокие частоты, пусть и чуть меньше, чем у предшественника. Оригинальному 1770 немного не хватало ясности, Mk2 в этом отношении лучше, но он басовитее и с чуть более высокими частотами.
Если изоляция не нужна, я бы почти всегда выбрал открытую заднюю часть. Но я не большой фанат баса, так что ваши предпочтения могут отличаться.
Оказывается,It turns out it's better to take DT 1990 second revision Than 1770?

Actually, I'm just confused about which ones to choose. If the second revision has bright high-pitched sounds, it might be better to go with the original 1770. Does the second-generation 1990 sound too much?

Beyer have always had a treble hump the 1770 mk 2 is supposed to be less bad than the mk 1 in this regard.

Hello. Please tell me which one to choose between the dt1770/1770mk2 and why? They say the 1770mk2 is bright. If I have to choose between the dt900pro x and the dt1770/1770mk2, which one should I buy?
 
Hi! Which headphones should I buy, the dt1770 or the dt1770mk2? Which is better, the top or the bottom? Or should I consider the dt1990mk2? Is the mk2 worse than the original?
Under consideration are the 1770/1770mk2/1990mk2/900 pro x. Which of these pairs should I choose?

1. It makes no sense to repeat the question if no one answers within a few hours.
2. If you are already down to 2 or 3 headphones you have to try them, since form and fit differ a lot. Not so much here, though.

That said: I (this is me, not you) would go for the 900 pro X. I tried it when looking for a closed headphone (used in loud environments and when mixing live concerts) and would have bought it. Since the 900 pro X is open I bought its cousin (700 pro X), but the 900 pro X had better (neutral and open) sound.
