You made the right move. I was in the same situation as you with the same remorse. I went and demoed the 58X's just to see what I was missing and it's just not worth the switch IMO.

This is kind of a crude and silly analogy but the 6XX is like a box of 12 premium crayons and the 58X is like a box of 6 premium crayons... except it has that 1 color you really like which isn't in the 12 pack. It might seem worth it, but you quickly start to notice how much better the other 6 crayons make the other product overall - and eventually you can't draw without them! Who knows if that even made sense, haha.

Lastly... get the Magni Piety! It's a KILLER amp for the 6XX for an outstanding budget price. Especially if you're a hip-hop fan. It'll bring a lot more bass a presence to the music to make up for the 6XX shortcomings. I listen to basically nothing but JPEGMAFIA and Radiohead, if that gives you any indication for the kind of stuff I like to listen to on my 6XX. :)
