Dekoni Audio Elite Earpads for Beyerdynamic DT Series - Comfortable Replacement Ear Pads for DT 990 Pro, Enhanced Sound Quality, Durable Design (Elite Velour)

They're recommended and they're good! Comfy, listen to metal mostly. Neither Amirons or 1990s are perfect for music, but they're sturdy and good enough in most cases. Quality is more down to the mix usually. I don't EQ because I don't use USB. I use SPDIF from an Echo Link. Good with Valhalla which is lush. Lyr3 can tend to be brighter, more temperamental with tube choice, but it's been Valhalla/Modius for a while. The velours distance your ears and make the sibilance OK, but solid state probably won't work with these phones or a lot of others since the sound is harder. Then again an Asgard 3 is so warm it outmushes tube amps. Don't think I've tried them together though. DT+some kind of tube+these pads will be a pretty good experience. Just goes very well with metal, I leave Amirons for most other stuff. Oh and hardcore, punk etc. Anything EDGY gets my 1990s.

Wow. I used the stock pads for the last four years. It's like I have new headphones now. I cannot believe how much these elite velour pads wake up the sound of the dt 1990 pros. They just round out out the bass in such a nice way that whole sound profile feels so much more rich and full. Plus they are insanely comfortable. I am kicking myself for not doing this sooner. So cheap for such a huge difference.

The stock pads for my DT990 Pro 250ohm were worn, flattened, and uncomfortable. They needed to be replaced. After reading reviews, I initially bought the Elite Hybrids as a replacement. Those were very disappointing -- they changed the sound significantly, and not in a good way. The hybrids closed off the soundstage, making it feel like a semi-open or even closed-backed headphone. The low frequencies were extremely amplified, making the overall sound feel muddied with a distinct loss in clarity. I may try the hybrids on my DT770s, instead. I now have the Elite Velours, which I am much happier with. The velours do not significantly change the stock sound of the DT990s. All of the clarity and openness continues to be present, with the sound feeling warmer (the stock sound felt a bit more sterile, by comparison). The pads, themselves, are thick and very comfortable. There is a lot more space between the pads and the drivers than the stock pads, and they feel very well cushioned. I definitely recommend the Elite Velours as replacement pads for the DT990 Pros; they are a step up in quality without sacrificing all that is good about the stock sound.

I much prefer the sound of my DT 990 Pro's after installing these. Much more comfortable than the stock pads and deeper, so your ears won't touch the inner foam. Even though the graph showed minimal difference in the sound, these added a bit of bass and more importantly reduced the harsh high treble tones these headphones can have. They do sound a tiny bit less open, though. Not by much but it's noticeable. I would definitely buy these for every pair of headphones going forward.

These are much thicker and rebound better than my last set of stock Beyerdynamic pads for my dt990s. Soundstage and profile very similar to new stock pads. The vinyl rim of these is much easier to stretch to fit around the earcup when installing these pads than stock Beyerdynamic pads. While breaking them in, they appear to dissipate heat a little bit better as they haven't yet left my ears feeling hot after extended listening or gaming sessions. I only wish they made these in a grey color, as the color contrast is one thing I liked about the stock pads.

Elite Velour: Doesn't sound the same as the original beyerdynamics 1990 v pads, plus the rubber that is meant to keep them in place is hard to insert because its too long and flimsy took half an hour to put both in and the pad itself is bent out of shape. Choice Suede: Way better than the Elite Velour in my opinion, using them on my beyerdynamic 1990 v1 I notice less background noise and more bass. However just like the Elite Velour they were difficult to put on because the material used for the inserts are flimsy and longer than the stock pads for the 1990 and they kind of bulge out on the sides once fully put on. But overall I like these more than the Elite Velour would recommend if you like bass a lot.

I already own a set of these pads (cooling gel option) and wanted to switch things up. I ordered these pads believing that they would be the same dimensions as my former set, but with a different material. Unfortunately, that was not the case. Instead, the size is just a hair smaller, and the mounting material is also slighter thinner in width. As such, getting the pads installed was incredibly challenging as when I would get one side attached, the other would slide off. due to the under-stitching What took about a minute with my former pads, took over 10 to get a single side mounted. This is really disappointing as I am a huge fan of Dekoni pads. I ended up having to return these pads as even after install, one will occasionally slip making stability an issue. I'll go back to the cooling Gel Pads I enjoy, and hope to find a better solution in the future.

While not as soft as the stock Alacantara, these pads (Elite Velour)are much thicker giving better comfort and a better seal resulting in better low end response. I had tried the Choice suede before these and while they are by far the most comfortable they kind of turn the Amirons into bass cannons. I will be keeping both and switch them for the music that best fits, though I believe it will be the Elite Velour.

What a change these pads make! I can listen to my DT1990s for longer periods of time. For the first time since I got them, the 1990s can do more than just pick out faults in mixes. Even more bass and just the right amount of treble while taming the Beyer peaks that used to wear out my ears. DT 1990s are finally brought to life in the most pleasing way and ready to act as daily drivers. My five-star daily driver setup: Beyerdynamic DT 1990 (Generation 1, 250 ohm) powered by Chord Mojo 2. And these pads look better than the stock ones.

Associé au Beyerdynamics DT1990 ces coussinet font des merveilles, le son en beaucoup moins sibillant que les coussinets d'origine et le son est plus équilibré, un must have

Brauchte neue Earpads, anstatt die originalen zu kaufen dachte ich an ein Upgrade. Es gibt Genug Websites die den Frequency response Graphen zeigen was für ein Unterschied diese Earpads bewirken. Komfort ist wirklich gut, vllt sogar besser als die originalen. Wird auf den DT 1990 genutzt bei mir, passen aber auch auf die komplette DT und T Reihe von Beyerdynamic. Meine Meinung zum Sound nach meinem Gehör: Wer den Beyerpeak mag wird den vermissen, der wird mit den Dekoni Pads etwas runter geregelt und ein Stück richtung 10 Khz verschoben. Nichts was man mit nem EQ nicht ändern kann. Subbass ist präsenter, mit den Pads gehen die DT's nochmal deutlich weiter runter und bleiben weiterhin klar. Ich bin kein Experte, aber diese Pads bieten noch mehr and Klang was ich nicht beschreiben kann LOL Außerdem gingen die Earpads unfassbar easy auf die Kopfhörer drauf. Klare Kaufempfehlung, keine Frage.

Very comfortable and great sound on DT 1990 Pro when you look for oratory1990 equalizer profile made for Dekoni Audio Elite Velours and DT1990. I recommend to pry out the piece that holds earpad. It is much more easier to install earpads and put them back. It comes off and goes back easily. See my example image.

Sehr gute Ohrpolster. Verarbeitung und Tragekomfort ist top. Benutzte sie auf meinen DT 1990. Auch klanglich eine Angenehme Verbesserung.
