Well I just grabbed a used pair of HD-6XX off r/AVexchange. They sound awesome through my SMSL iDEA dongle DAC, but I'm not very impressed with their build quality. My Final Sonorous III's are waaaay better. Are 650s built better than the 6XX? I guess I was just expecting more.

In any case it doesn't matter that much to me since the sound good. I expect they'll sound even better when my Schiit Midgard and Modius arrive in the next couple day.

Well, let me put it this way I follow this sub daily for years and I have yet to see someone have build quality issues with their HD6xx. People talk hypothetically that the build is plastic and so must be weak, but reality tells a different story. I'm far from a Sennheiser fanboy but undeniably the 6x0 series are maybe the best built hifi headphones out there just judging by the amount of issues people report with them, especially taking into account how widely used they are.

Points taken! I'll stop complaining now and enjoy my music.
