The Monkey Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 I haven't spent much time with the HD600 and now that I've sold the HD800, the 650 sounds a bit boomy. Granted, it is headphiled, but I suspect it would still sound boomy if I were to replace the grills. Any thoughts re the 600? I haven't spent much time with it. And what would be a good price used?

n_maher Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 What do the dacses have to say about that? Quote
Hopstretch Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Oh yeah, I've still got the original prototype Enigma OMGWTFBBQ HD600 cable sitting in a drawer somewhere here collecting dust. I'll send it to you and you can tell me if I was nuts to think it made a nice difference. Quote

Duggeh Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 So long as you don't get the K701. I say buy whatever you like on whatever whim you can afford. HD600 are nice. But SR-202 are nicer. Quote
Voltron Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 I can send you mine on an extended loan. I have a Blue Dragon cable that I think sounds best with it, plus you could play with the OMGWTFBBQ for comparisons. Quote
feckn_eejit Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 I have fucking hated every Sennheiser I've ever heard. Except the HD600s. (oh and I haven't heard 800s.) Quote

MexicanDragon Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Take Al up on his offer and get JH13s. Then you can take the OMGWTFBBQ cable and re-term them for the JH13s to compare. Then you sell the HD650s and sell Al's HD600s with blue dragon cable, and sell the OMGWTFBBQ cable, and there's a good chunk of getting your JH13s. I have a feeling, however, you won't follow my suggestion. **BRENT** Quote

HeadphoneAddict Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 YES. Get a pair and add an HD650 cable to it. Quote
Asr Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 IMO, HP1000 > HD600. Dew et! Well then again, I also think OII MKI > HP1000.... Quote
Torpedo Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 IMHO the HD600 are the best dynamic phones under $300. Well balanced, resolving enough... not many flaws to criticize. However coming from true high end phones, one can be missing a few things. I like them better than the HD650, I find these boomy too Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted November 4, 2009 Report Posted November 4, 2009 Dew eet, the 600 is very nice.I don't know you anymore. Quote
