    Is there an appreciable difference between the 6xx and the 600?

    I’ve honestly never understood why the 6xx at $199 doesn’t immediately invalidate the 600 (or the 650 for that matter).

      I’ve never had the 6xx or 650, but have used the 600 for at least 10 years mostly for music production. I think the consensus is the hd600 are more “honest”. The 650 adds some bass but aren’t as accurate / correct etc. The 600 might be a little bass light but are a legit reference point.

      That’s my understanding at least. I get pretty good results with making music that “translates” with the 600. That’s mostly from spending a ton of time with them, but says something about their correct-ness.

      I would be curious to try the 660s2, but am not going to bother any time soon.
