Beyerdynamic DT 990 (250 ohm) Limited Edition (straight cable) for $130

While Sennheiser and Audio Technica and AKG are well known for squirting new headphone models left and right, all across their line-up, Beyerdynamic is not far behind these days. Case in point, they have a recent limited edition of the DT 990 (250 ohm) open-back headphones with a straight black cable, and it is currently on sale for $130 with free shipping, with a limit of five per customer by Focus Camera on eBay. This is new condition in original packaging.

TIP: easy way to tell the “open-ness” of the Beyerdynamic DT-series, the higher the number, the more open they get. The DT770 is closed, the DT880 is semi, and the DT990 is open.
