Guys, I just ordered DT880 from headroom.
My interests are Classical and Romantic era music. Sometimes I listen to ambient and New Age music also. Rock,Rap,Pop,Techno music don't have a place in my list. That's why after all research I have ordered for DT880. Hope I will not be disappointed with the can.
I searched for a music shop where I can audition some HD600/650/K701 but I found only one shop in my surroundings (Detroit, Michigan). That shop had only HD650, which made difference from other HD5xx they had. But the responses I got for the thread http://www6.head-fi.org/forums/showthread.php?t=205282 made me re-think about purchasing HD650. Since many people say K701 has an artificial sound (not musical), I was left with the choice of DT880, which I just ordered.
Note: K701 owners don't need to take my comment on K701 seriously. I know it's a great can and appreciate it for various other reasons but I believe DT880 would beat it for Classical music. I wanted to audition DT880 and K701 before ordering but I don't find these high-end cans anywhere in my place. So just spending some money on Beyer based on reviews.
