How does the 6xx and 560's compare to the momentum 4's in sound quality alone? I tried the 560 and M4 at a store but they only had a sample test track, so it was very limiting. But I could hear enough to get disappointed by the M4 sound quality and the 560's felt better! Was it because of the sample track or are they just like that?
Potentially. Each pair will have their strengths, and it's possible that track was more suited to the HD560s'
However, keep in mind the M4 is closed back, and the difference you heard could genuinely be the difference in sound quality between the two.
What track was it? if you don't mind me asking.
It was just a demo of jazz style, pop and rock that I didn't specifically recognize but all the Headphones were wired, which I heard that doesn't work as well as the BT for the M4. I noticed the HD560 slightly better and natural than the M4's but none were particularly impressive compared to my regular under a 100€ earbuds so I wonder if it was really an issue of an underwhelming audio source ...
