I had the 650, heard the 600 and sold them. Recently, out of curiosity I purchased another 650 to compare to my 580 and 600. I, once again, found the 650 to colored and have since sold them. I like the greater neutrality and slightly better treble extension of the 580/600. I disagree the 650 is more resolving. How can the 650 be more resolving when the lower midrange information is covered up from excess bass and the treble is so recessed. The 580/600 sound much more like the live music I use as my referance. The 650 sounds to fat and dull.
I also used the 580/600/650 balanced and I clearly preferred the 600; although the 650 is definitely better balanced run with a balanced output.
