Gonna buy new K612 Pro for less than $100. I can also buy HD600 for like $220. What should I go for? My primary objectices are:
1. Monitoring during mixing and mastering (rock and metal);
2. Sound - as natural as possible (little EQing is OK I guess?);
3. Wanna just have fun listening, I love texture of distorted guitars the most.
The price of K612 Pro is very tempting. Should I go for it, or better buying classic HD600?
They have a very different sonic character. The K612's have more detail and a wider soundstage. The 600's have better mids. The bass on both is pretty much the same. (Although 600's have much better bass with vintage SS or tube gear).
I'm actually selling mine. They are the original Made In Austria version and in minty shape. Only shipping to US or Canada, however.
