The open-back design, as mentioned, delivers a wealth of space and depth to any track or recording. As a result, the Tygr 300 R does seem more spacious and revealing than the DT880 or DT990.

Beyerdynamic directly aims the TYGR 300 R at gamers, podcasters, and streamers. These headphones are for anyone who wants to enjoy great sounds. The open-back design is ideal for home use, so you won’t miss things you need to hear in the background.

The Beyerdynamic TYGR 300 R is a great pair of stereo headphones that forgo the typical features of a gaming headset, for better or worse. If you need a great headset and microphone for gaming, streaming, or podcasting—and you don't have either already— this is worth considering.

The TYGR 300 R open-back gaming headphones are hands-down the best quality audio headphones I have used. The rich, highly-accurate, and realistic soundstage makes these headphones perfect for watching movies or listening to music, not just for gaming. That said, there's nothing "gaming" about these headphones. If you're looking for some of the normal features that accompany gaming headsets, then I would look elsewhere. If you just want an amazing natural quality sound for either gaming, music, or movies delivered in a lightweight and comfortable package, then the TYGR 300 R headphones are for you.

The level of immersion gained by the Beyerdynamic Tygr 300 R's open back design is an excellent selling point for anyone who spends all their time playing games like The Witcher 3.
