Beyerdynamic DT860 review - Don't treat it like a step-child...
I've owned almost all the DT770-990 series, and some of them in different impedances. The "old-skool" DT860's takes the cake. I was immediately hooked on the forward mids (yup, they are more forward than the DT880, regardless of impedance), deep, punchy bass (but not as loose as the DT990)...- GN3RAL KARL

V6's vs. 7506's
I just AB'd these two together, and for a very long time I thought they were supposed to be the exact same except for the mini plug. The 7506's are a billion times better, much more powerful defined tight bass, far less harsh and smoother, way more detailed and clear. Anyone else?- TheMuffinMan_01
