I just wanted to take this chance and confirm what many on this forum have already said. That is, there seems to be a real synergy for the Sennheiser HD600 paired w/ Sugden Headmaster. The HD600's seem to come alive with detail but manages to maintain its neutrality thoughout the frequency spectrum at the same time. I can now see what Headroom means when they say that their favorite headphones are the HD 600's.
However, I don't think the Headmaster matches well w/ my AT 100's or the AKG 501's. This is not to say that the match is "bad", but the sound seems strangely "glossed" over. The micro-dynamic details are lacking although the overall characteristics of the sound is pleasingly neutral. I would tentatively say that I prefer using the MF X-Cans V2 or the RA-1 for the AT-100's over the Sugden at this point. I still haven't found a great match for the AKG 501's at this point.
In conclusion, the HD600 pairing w/ the Headmaster is phenomenal. I would highly recommend the Headmaster for anyone who owns the HD600's.
