The DT880 are just what I wanted. I wouldn't say they are pleasant to listen to music but, for producing and mixing they are perfect. I use the analogy that they are like microscopes for sounds, you wouldn't want to use them in your day to day because you might be disgusted by the amount of germs in your every day. They are very honest so you notice all of the "germs" lurking around the music you listen to for fun and that's not good if you are just having fun or want an immersive music experience but for producing and mixing that's what one needs and doesn't find in normal headphones. I barely have to adjust my mixes when I switch to the monitors, with my DT990 pros it's not like that, and with normal consumer headphones it is just impossible. So my suggestions for improvements would be: re-do the product description as it is very misleading. Any one buying these to enjoy music at home is going to be sorely disappointed or is probably completely clueless as to what good hi-fi headphones sound like. These are purely for music production use out of the box without any EQ. The audiophiles will still buy them and mod them but a regular consumer won't be mislead. Being a little nitpicker, the hard case had what seemed like white rubber shavings all over it. I just had to wipe them and they were gone but still, looks a little unprofessional. Now regarding the DT990 driver, it's the right replacement part and I presume it is working (still have not repaired my old pair of DT990s) but the packaging scared me. Specially because of the finer than hair wires that connect the drivers and that are exposed, wrapping in bubble wrap with no additional packaging seems unprofessional specially when they cost 50 euro per unit (almost half the price of new headphones). Love Beyerdynamic just want them to be the best they can. If you want more tips I have a master's in International Businesses hire me ahahahah

Will not recommend. Have wanted this headset since it was announced. Signed up. Ordered the first day it was available. They shipped it very quickly. Then...DHL sent three messages saying it was on its way. Each time changing to another day. Then changed to :delivery interrupted delayed for 1-2 days. Where it has stayed since April 22nd. Contacted DHL. They said contact Beyerdynamic. Beyerdynamic said wait a week. I waited a week.Filled out the paperwork. Asked if they'd re-order and send me the headset. Four week investigation?!? For something DHL still shows they haven't delivered? And absolutely no further updates from Beyerdynamics about the case status? Neither DHL nor Beyerdynamics took ownership of the issue. That's pitiful customer service. No issue with the indivduals involved. They're just following the company support processes.
