500+ Head-Fier
I ended up never using my K612 Pro much, always sticking to the HD600, but when I purchased a cheap Presonus HP4 headphone amp it all changed. It drives the K612 Pro massively better than my other sources. The HD600 as well for that matter. Great cheap little amp.
HD600 is still much more forgiving to the material, but fed with the right recording K612 Pro can produce a eargasm. For instance the new Tool album sounds absolutely insane with the K612 Pro.
Con with these cans, except how hard they are to drive to satisfaction, is they are maybe too revealing in the mids. Every little imperfection in the source shines through brutal. Would be great studio cans to check the recording quality ... wait, it's exactly what they are!
