Hello, I'm looking for alternatives to Beyerdynamic DT 990 Edition. I used to have Superlux HD681s and with EQ and changing stock pads to velour I managed to tame the treble and make them sound good to my ears. After a problem with the cable, I purchased the DT 990 Edition 32 ohms two days ago. Unfortunately, even with EQ, sometimes the treble is too harsh. I don't know if it's worth to wait or send them back while I can.I thought about getting DT 880 Edition 32 ohms instead, or Fidelio X2HR as alternatives. I am searching for low impedance headphones that can be driven from portable devices without an amp, over ear, open back or semi open. I mostly like to hear bass and mids, I don't mind highs as long as the treble isn't too harsh. Balanced all around would be nice too. Same budget of the DT 990 Edition 32 ohm or less than 200€. I live in Europe / Italy.
