using the DT990pro for over an year now. i like them more than the akg series. ive dropped them over a hundred times from 1-2 meters. nothing happend to them


while I love my DT990pro I have to object: the plastic casing is a single point of failure. be very careful not to drop them, so far you've probably been (very) lucky!

p.s. I think the part I meant is called 'Wippe' in german. According to their website, a replacement costs just 1,20€ :-) (still..it breaks easily in my experience)

now that you mention it , one of my sliders is broken but still rock stable. since this headphone is soooo simple, it could easily be replaced with a alu casing. if you dont have the tools for it, even a nicely filed piece if wood would do the job.
damn good that every part on this headphone could be compensated
actually I was quite relieved to learn that the replacement part is so cheap/affordable.
the store where I bought my phones (or maybe their supplier) wanted to overcharge me for it (~45€ instead of 1,20!)
