So, I’m curious now that thousands of pairs of HD650‘s have been delivered in the last week, what are peoples impressions of the cans?
Are they better than you thought, is anyone disappointed in the sound quality? Or, do you think it was a $200 no brainer?
What are are your thoughts???

KeeferI got mine today. I compared them directly to the HD700, HD600, K7XX, DT880, TH-X00 mahogany, T-X0, and a few others. I believe a $200-$250 aftermarket price tag is right on target for what you get in audio quality. Getting them new is just a bonus. I also love the color scheme and cable, as I don't need the 10 footer, and the shorter one is nice to walk around the house with.

snapacapVery nice! Probably need a lil burn in if you just got them but for the target price point they hit, I think the might be hard to beat.
You mentioned the DT880 and some other really nice cans, I own the Beyerdynamic DT1990 Pro, very underated cans. I love mine.
I think that’s part of the problem, there are so many good headphones out there, it always seems to come down to; how much $$$ do you have to spend???

KeeferOnly had at least 2 hours so far with the 6xx, been busy. Will need to allow some burn in and I also need to buy a dac/amp to do some real comparing.
Currently using computer mobo (asrock x370 gaming k4) for now. 20 louder volume than front panel jack on phanteks enthoo pro case.
Since my k7xx are easier to drive and had some more burn in I think I like them better than 6xx. If you want something less dark sounding then fidelio x2 or m1060. I just got some m1060 and have not broken them in either, but the biggest thing I can say is the sounds sound 3d holographic and the soundstage is definitely better than 6xx. In counter strike with 6xx I can hear foot steps when I am hugging a wall, but with the m1060 I can hear farther and it feels like I am cheating.
All those headphone are equally good for around $200. It comes down what you prefer cause there is some slight differences. Since I have the 6xx now am going to to some A and B testing and get back later time (he4xx later :( tho). But on first impressions I would say m1060 > x2 > k7xx > 6xx.

KeeferYou knew what you were getting when you ordered this, I hope. You can always get a longer cable.
