Here's why I say this :
At the recent Boston meet, I heard a pair of HD580s that had HD600 grilles and a $100 re-cable job ... and WOW did they sound good !!!!
So good, I had to get a pair ! So two weeks later, I just received an awesome pair from another Headfi member. Brand new earpads, 600 grilles, and a 650 cable. They look pretty much new, and I am VERY positive I got a great deal from a great seller .... But;
They sound NOTHING like the pair I heard at the meet. The owner of the ones I heard at the meet had taken the time to express to me the 580s NEEDED a good re-cable to sound as good as what i was hearing ..... thus this post, because although I was silently skeptical with what he was telling me, apparently he was dead on, and a recable has to happen fast !
Good night !
