It sounds so much better than my previous headphones (Samson SR860). It just sounds so much more open and clear, I can also hear things I've never heard before. Also why do people complain about the bass? there's plenty.

How's the soundstage? tried the 560 which had pretty good sounstage but everything else was kinda dissapointing.

Just as a comparison I went from the Gameone to a 560 and kinda regret it.Too analitical/sharp?for my tastes.It's really annoying hearing so much detail when there's so much garbage audio in the internet and the 560 slaps all those audio abnormalities in your face.

Also the earpads while slightly deflated (which I prefer) are so thin.The pads on the 600 from the picture look bigger/deeper.Oh and the plastic noises.So much plastive noises with the 560.

It's hard to really talk about it without knowing what you're comparing against.

But I think the soundstage of the HD6XX is reasonable. "Intimate" is a word I'd use. I don't think it feels congested or small, but it isn't spacious either. I think it avoids the negative qualities I personally encounter on headphones or IEMs that have bad staging.

I think a lot of people really enjoy the 6XX for what it offers. But it's not soundstage focused, to be sure.
