HiFiMan Shangri La Junior - On the contrary.. I was impressed by these. They sounded so engaging.
I heard these at a meetup out of a heavily modified Stax amp, I don't recall the model Stax amp. Coming from my Koss electrostats I expected to be blown away, I wasn't. I put on the Stax L700 mk2 and was impressed by the amount of bass the Stax put out compared to the Shang Jr. I have no idea if the L700 mk2 was modded or not.
Sennheiser HD650 - I already own HD600 so I was curious about how these compare. Meh. I like the HD600 more..
When I got into this hobby 20 years ago saying the 580/600 was as good as the 650 would get you labeled as not having expensive enough gear or just having bad ears. How times have changed. Love my 580 after all these years.
