Just spotted these from Amazon with a $200 coupon, looks like they have been $380 in the past but this is the lowest I've seen since then.

I know these weren't super well received on release but it seems like this might be a good deal. Do you all think they are worth it at this price point?

Yeah I do think preference probably play a part too but...... from what I gathered it sounds like most people prefer:

HD600 = HD650 (HD6XX) > HD660S > HD58X

I put HD600 = HD650 meaning they re equal but depending on taste/preference.

So based on what you said it sounds like HD660S2 is better than all of the above. HD660S2 normally are also like 2-3 times the price so maybe it's a hard sell.

But it might still good as something to bridge the gap between HD600/HD650 all the way to HD800S.

EDIT: Not sure where HD560S sits on this scale.

my scale: 660s > 600 > 650 > 6xx > HD58x
