Summary: So far surprised more than impressed.
1 week update: Usage: approximately 3 hours. Content: mix between digital streaming services. Example forced tests: Whitney Houston - Always Love you, Nine Inch Nails - Less Than, Soundgarden - Black Hole Sun, Chainsmokers - Paris. Equipment/Signal Path: Schiit stack (M&M 2U's), Periapt Pro Cable
Comments: Like my Fostex Thunderpants you will have to at least have some sort of amp to drive these, but instead of a super unique soundstage presentation you get a more defined reference earphone. These are probably better reference headphones than the AKG studio headphones I have because the Senn 6XX leans so much toward neutral and the AKG's end up being a bit bright. Cable upgrade is nice since while the length of the factory is good (5 feet) for sitting at a PC, its production quality feels cheap. Once these reach past the 25 hour mark I hope that something changes a bit in their presentation as they are not amazing yet, just surprising in their clear representation.
P.S. If you drive these amp and listen to bass heavy music you can get hints of some of the higher iteration Senn headphones (bass but not overwhelming).
