I have had the HM-601 for a couple of days now and must say that I am highly impressed. I am in love with bright headphones, like the K701 or W5000, the only thing missing was that bit of warmth and weight in the music. This is now totally fixed...
I have used the HM-601(line out)>EF-5>K701 + HM-601(line out)>HA5000>W5000 and the result is truly amazing. The songs are no longer harsh and thin sounding, they have that bit of smoothness and warmth added which to be honest sounds truly analog. Basically eliminates the modern "digital" syndrome and provides effortlessly rich listening without the fatigue of bright headphones. The best part is, the detail is not lost, and the highs are still soaring... Fantastic purchase thus far, it really is my purchase of the year, and completes my quest for a warm source. A+, will post more impressions later with time... Cheers,
