I’m a sucker for exposed drivers.
Stretched nylon over the driver and clamped it down using the earpads.
Don’t mind the worn out pads, I switched them from the 660S. Whoever is buying those from me will enjoy the fresh new pads from the S2

In a similar way (not in a silent way), I used mesh…

[HD-6XX is shown above, HD-660S2 was in use; that, too, received the ‘treatment’.]

What is the overall sound quality of the HD660S2 headphones? Does it work well with an OTL amplifier, or is it more solid state? Which previous model has a closer sound? (600,650)

One thing has not changed at all. The familiar 600 -series clamping force. Every day these headphones are trying to crush my head... until it gets better.

What stops you from adjusting the clamp ?
Sliders are metal, so you can bend them as much as you like.
Few constructions are so easy to adjust.

I have done that couple of times but clearly not enough. They somehow revert back during the night.
I will get it eventually but don't want to over do it.

Has anyone tested Resolve's EQ yet and can give an opinion on the difference from stock tuning? it would be interesting to hear what you think.

Bend the metal bands firmly and hold for about 5-8 seconds and they will keep their shape.

On top is the HD660S bent fir comfort, bottom is the HD660S2 out of box. It is not much in total, but it helps a lot. The S2 is still in stock form, because I might ending up returning it. Which I highly doubt at day 3.

I blame my head being too big. Now it is Ok. Tomorrow morning the pads are touching again and the clamp force is too much.

They will eventually become super comfortable like my HD660S (picture below)

Maybe. That is how I feel after wearing them 5-7 hours

Looks like design is not bad at all. And i also believe that for my head they are quite fit

HD 650 are my most comfortable headphones (and I have a few), because:

• they are light;
• ear cups are oval, just like my ears;
• clamp is as strong as I like it (bending metal is not difficult).

I imagine that this is true for all 6xx series, including HD660S2

It is not even necessary to bend the metal bands. A few nights with a book between the bands, holding them apart as when on the head, decreases the pressure as much as one desires, "opening" permanently the plastic band. Must be done without excess to avoid decreasing the pressure too much. Then, any HD-6## becomes the most comfortable headphones of all.
