1300 Ron in Romania which is roughly 250 USD, a good deal i suppose

i got my 660s for 270$ like a month ago. would this be better in terms of price/performance?

[–] AngryTank@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Price to performance is all subjective in this hobby, would I pay $40 more for the 660s? Yes.

Massdrop HD6xx is on a good deal, too.

Does anyone have a link? I can't find these on eBay.

In the checkout there's a checkbox for the coupon. I just checked and it still works for me.

Oh okay great, I see it now... I was trying to apply some other way.

Although, I'm a lil worried about the reviews on HeadFI? I'm not sure if I should be, since I imagine they're comparing it to really high-end phones.

I'm a newb if you can't tell lol.

Is there an appreciable difference between the 6xx and the 600?

I've honestly never understood why the 6xx at $199 doesn't immediately invalidate the 600 (or the 650 for that matter).

[–] sunplaysbass@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’ve never had the 6xx or 650, but have used the 600 for at least 10 years mostly for music production. I think the consensus is the hd600 are more “honest”. The 650 adds some bass but aren’t as accurate / correct etc. The 600 might be a little bass light but are a legit reference point.

That’s my understanding at least. I get pretty good results with making music that “translates” with the 600. That’s mostly from spending a ton of time with them, but says something about their correct-ness.

I would be curious to try the 660s2, but am not going to bother any time soon.
