The HD580's sound surprisingly good even after all these years. Very enjoyable sound at a very good price.

The HRD-B with crossfeed on sounds heavenly with the HD600 I liked it a lot more than with the HD650. It's sounds so good I am selling all of my other gear.

For me, the 600 > 650.

The crossfeed does wonders for the bass while not taking away from other elements of the music.

The K701 has a massive soundstage and separation. I see beautiful pieces here and there. But the entire picture never really comes together quite like the 650, 600. Also, the bass lacks impact. This is with roughly 480 hours of burn in.

I feel the Equinox works better with the HD600. It sort of fills up the sound. On the 650, it just makes it thicker and slower. This comparison was done on a HRDB. If you ever feel the need to sell yours drop me a pm as well

the 701 and GS1K...I can't think of 2 more different headphones. When I listen to them they each have their strengths...but neither of them are perfect. Getting the right synergy for the GS-1k is really tough. I've put it on the backburner for now.

I've had both the GLite and the Opera. The Opera is much more powerful when it comes to the 650. It drives them with so much more authority.
