Pls help review . Headfi AMDK say it even can own the hd6xx / 600 / 660s / 650



I own both. First take - in summary both has their pros and cons. HD6XX is more lush, richer (and has that Sennheiser veil), where HD58X is more dynamic, but slightly more flat. Both similar in terms of soundstage. Depends on what genre you listen often. But in terms of VFM, I say HD58X is more VFM vs HD6XX.

HD58X is definitely miles ahead of HD598 (which I used to own). HD598 was too thin for me.

If one has 6xx , do they sound very similar ?

Fairly similar - the sound signature is quite consistent. But only HD58X is more dynamic, less lush.

Anyway, decided to sell my HD58X... still prefer my HD6XX.

What amps do u drive them with?

how to get the $10 credit for 1st purchase ? anyone ?

Think you just need an existing Massdrop member to link you in. I was shoved such a link at after my checkout, not sure if it can still be done now. :s22:

Edit: Yes, just checked, it can still be done, just use the link below as "referral":

https://www.massdrop.com/?referer=945LFB

Note that I will get a referral credit too it seems, so as to keep this transparent.

Hmm ... went back to have a look an it reads:

Give $10, Get $10
Introduce a friend to Massdrop. They'll get $10 when they sign up, and you'll get $10 credit once they complete their first drop.

Only for new Massdrop members.

Think the critical word is NEW member who sign up with the link ???
I personally haven't tried, so perhaps you can try signing up a new account ? :s11:

Hahaha ... that's true indeed but still, that $9 or so could have been used for stuff like a cheap headphone stand though.

But I'm surprised that the shipping cost that much from Massdrop for the AKG. My HE4XX cost US$15/- in shipping.

But SG$20/- is a pretty good price for self-collect, I would have chosen that if I were in your situation.

I have a neighbourhood collection point for EzBuy, which just happens to be my block carpark !! :s13::D
Hey man, I just bought my pair off massdrop and am using ezbuy to ship it over to singapore. Just asking what did u put for the courier option as i cant find what massdrop used for it...
