They're not as real as even the cheaper old orthos, though, so don't overpay.
[...] Last week I also bought a pair of HD600. I expected an improvement but it was a agfdisappointment.[...]
Personally I can sum up realism in one word - timbre.
Although many recordings are awful because they screw up the timbre more than most good quality headphones ever do.

"Timbre"... that word never ceases to fascinate me... Engineers cannot measure it.
Imo, it's where the musicality lies. It's all about the magic of music.
I think GE may've also been extra kind in their review of the HD 540.
