Hi, just confirming there is no change at all to the headphones except the color, cord, and badges? Exact same sound as hd650? Thanks. Have you ever dropped 600's and for how much? Thanks, New to massdrop
I'm no audiophile (the best headphones I've ever owned* were the HD555's about 10 years ago), but from what I gather there is a noticeable difference between the 600 and 650. The 600 is apparently much clearer at the high end, but has zero soundstage. The 650 offers punchier bass and a wider soundstage while being generally more refined overall - but the high end isn't as crisp as the 600. As I'll be gaming with these a fair bit, I'm happy to sacrifice some of the high end for a bit more bass and more open sound, but vocal-heavy music is probably better on the 600s.
That's also what I've heard about the 650 vs the 600. The soundstage as well as the beefier bass are what made me choose the 650 (6XX to be precise) over the 600 or the 598 (which was the first set of open back cans I was interested in).
