I can see how people say 6xx scales. They sound better on my setup now vs my atom stack i had last year. But I don't know if going from sub $200 dac and amp to just a $500 dac amp would change it much. Esp since its also solid state and even from the same manufacture. I think most sound changes you are going to get is from different dac and amp manufactures that don't focus so heavily on specs. And if you stay in the same company, I rock the hell out of the schiit mimby, This little multibit has it going on.So part of the reason that I made this post was because I was a bit underwhelmed by my 6xx. I have only had them a couple days though so I have not finalized an opinion yet. Im comparing them to my open modded M1060C, and the 1060 just sounds more... alive? Might just be personal preference, or the 6xx might need more break in. People say the 6xx scale really well with better equipment...maybe my gear just makes them sound boring? I've seem people saying the heresy sounds a little flat/boring...
Pairing it with a omg that amp doesn't have 5 zeros after the decimal point thing is just beyond me. I buy gear that I enjoy to listen to, I don't buy it to not hear flavor and character that brings things to life.
