Oh, these will be fine with the 02/ODAC right?
I've had my HD600s for about 15 years. Why? They sound good.

Oh man. Ok, tnx for the input gang. Looks like I'll have to dip into my pc fund.
It's amazing how long these have been in production. I'm getting my first set soon, I've had AKG701 for years, but always longed after the HD600.
Recommendation on good pairing for amp?
Simply question for all :
Also this HD600 tends to enphasize the audio track defects during listen session of not good quality tracks ? More or less then 598 ?

From my experience with HD600, it's quite unforgiving to bad source material (people may say otherwise, but...). For that reason I've mostly listened to high quality stuff on my pair (jazz, acoustic, some classic rock)... Suffice to say since I got my LCD-2, my listening preferences have shifted and widened considerably.
Really the only way for a can to be "forgiving" of bad material is to be of such low resolution that sounds all blend together and detail isn't retrieved. Those fans won't really sound good with anything. That said, I wouldn't say the 600 exaggerates problems, simply has enough resolution that problems can be heard. I'm still able to enjoy poor to mediocre recordings with the 600, they just don't allow the 600 to shine to its full potential
