It's been what.. maybe 2 weeks since I bought H6 and I can gladly say that they make the perfect combo with my Shozy Alien. No need for an amp and if Alien's not there, I still get a decent sound from my Lumia 1020. The price I paid for both was approx 500 euro and it damn well deserves it

So what color are yours and how would you describe the overall sound signature?

I bought the Blue Stone ones. The 90's Love Affair collection will be available on the 20th of May and I just couldn't wait. Overall they sound very precise meaning giving correct, neutral, clean and wide sound. Perfect for jazz, vocals and classical.

Can current owners tell me if the tan (natural) or  blue/stone ones pick up dirt and discolour easily?Thanks

Hello everyone. I have a question, I love the sound of the H6. And I want to know what sound signature this headphone, so for future reference I know which sound signature I like. Or isn't this as simple as that? Thanks!

Well, if you read the reviews, the majority of them claim its a very neutral signature with the bass a bit on the weak side. The pair i demoed was nothing like that, they had an emphasized bass and treble response which caused the mids to sound a bit recessed. These were the red special edition pair so i'm not sure if the normal black and tan models have the same tuning or not.

What you heard were the DJ Khaled version of the H6.

They have a significantly V-shaped tuning, unlike the very neutral tuning of the standard version.  B&O is obviously going after the Beats market with these. 

 
You can easily tell if it is the DJ Khaled version because they say "We The Best" on the top of the headband.

Yeh thats  what i originally thought but it didnt have those words on top of the headband and they were not the same color. The dj khaled version is red and black, the ones i tried were red and grey the same as the graphite blush model. I compared them to the ones pictured on the box and they looked the same. Its almost like the dj khaled version drivers had been put in the special edition earcups. I'm tempted to order a pair of the dj khaled ones just to confirm my theory lol.

I would call them beautifully balanced and natural, but the fall on the bright end of the headphone spectrum.

Does the DJ Khaled have more bass than standard without messing with the rest of the sound signature?  I love the standard H6, but wish it had a bit more bass.

HifiGuy, sorry this is a bit offtopic and I have no answer to your question (although the people that heard the DJ Kaled version found the bass kind of muddy), but which sound do you prefer? The K845 or the H6? I know you tried them both in your portable videos.

The model i heard had quite an emphasized bass. If you've ever heard the custom one pro its fairly similar to that on the 3rd bass port setting imo. its much more of a V shaped signature, the mids sound recessed due to the emphasized bass and treble.

I will get the H6 on tuesday! I can't hardly wait!

I have the graphite blush edition of the H6 (have been using it since last October) and frankly, I never felt that it has a V-shaped sound signature.

Just a question. Does $400 has the same value for americans, as €400 has for europeans? I am asking this because people say that for $400 this headphone is quite good value. (Some people say that). But when Americans earn more than europeans (in regard to eur or dollar), then it is different.
