I think a lot of people get a little disappointed when they hear the 6x0's. I was one of them until I started going through more source gear and finding some of them really make the 6x0's sing.

That said, all of the source gear that I really liked to pair with the 6x0's costs at least as much as the headphones, if not many, many times more.

You’re describing a religion

especially if the hype is based on a a headphone line that has been hype for decades

It is hype. It’s insane how many people don’t mind massive bass distortion and the complete lack of any sub-bass and having to replace pads every other year. Yeah the vocals sound cool but I really don’t think they are compete above 150$.
