The 50-Ohm HD598s are much easier to drive then the 300-Ohm HD600/HD650.
Do you even have an amplifier that can provide the kind of juice the HD600/HD650 need to sound their best?
What DAC and amp. do you currently use?

I don't know much about that amp but I assume it's able to drive the HD600/650. they probably won't sound as good as they could with a proper desktop amp (no where near their full potential)
 
The difference between the 598 and 600/650 is huge the 598s are great but the HD600s are on a completely different level IMO

Are you happy with the HD598? If so, leave this place now and don't turn back! Your wallet will thank you.

If you are happy with the HD598, you don't need the hd600 or hd650. The upgrades after the 100-200 dollar mark are marginal at best. The most important thing is to find the sound signature you like the best.

LOL Agreed....if he continues this trend, 4 months later he will be asking "I have the HD 800, should i get the Stax SR-009"
