Just make sure you have a receiver or amplifier able to power them.
Also, naturally they have aggressive treble. I use Equalizer APO + the Peace GUI to chill them out a bit and then they sound fantastic. If anybody needs my equalization settings PM me.

How does this fare with the HD6xx?

Seems pretty close to even. Each one having a few decimal points over the other depending on category. I have the 6XX and got them with a mass drop coupon and really like them. I've never tried the other so I can only speak on the 6XX. The bass isn't boomy but it sounds really good to me depending on who or what you listen to. I heard rap wasn't good in them but someone like schoolboy q sounds really good in them.

Comfortable and have held up fantastic. I am no audiophile but they sound fantastic to me. Only con is full blast they "leak" alot of sound so sig. other might complain if in same room.
I use them with a sonata bhd and now with the treble mod and some eq adjustments they sound amazing.

I did try some ATs years ago, can't remember the model, but personally I hated them. They were way too tight for my head, the bass was boomy and grating, and in terms of sound I find the 990s way less muddy/higher fidelity.
To the person saying the DT 990s have too much treble, yes I agree, but if you use equalizing software it really unlocks their potential, which is excellent, clear sound with a decent amount of bass. I don't like the V shape much either but you aren't locked in to that, and the 990s are fantastic even if you alter their natural EQ.
For a more balanced natural EQ you could always go for Sennheisers, though this is a solid deal and as much as I like my Sennheisers, they aren't as analytical in their sound from what I can tell. Both are nice cans for different things though.
