They're not going anywhere
Nah. They're still being made, tested, and shipped. Unless Sennheiser is sold out, we cannot predict when a retailer will be out of stock (or, on the contrary, replenishing them) but most retailers have a good pulse on when they will be back in stock.
Just a word on pricing, not here to defend the new increases but not too sure for those having an issue with the price if they've recently stepped outside. As a shop owner I've seen supplies go up 40% if not more across the board over the last 2 years...just saying.
I didn’t mean to imply that they were. I just said that people might be buying up stocks in case they discontinued. Most people probably haven’t read your reassurances on this thread!
No doubt, thx for your input along this threads journeyI didn’t mean to imply that they were. I just said that people might be buying up stocks in case they discontinued. Most people probably haven’t read your reassurances on this thread!
I have to keep my foot on the gas a out the HD 600/650 not going anywhere or else the rumors start up all over again haha
Guess it depends on location, Senn and Amazon, US and Canada have them readily available.
To be fair I am not a long-standing HD 6xx fan like many people in the thread are. I leaned more towards Beyers, AKG’s with the occasional Senn early on. I think due to my audiophile journey centered more around Beyers and AKG’s caused me to look for different things in my sound than many who’s journey was centered more around Senns.Them's fightin' words. I'll order another HD 600 just out of spite.
That is very true, tastes changes, music changes, usage changes, etc. I shift favored genres all the time and I’m all over the place with what I like. I’m curious what direction things will take in the future. It’s interesting getting headphones from different musical eras and experiencing a different sort of sound.
I agree. I just checked Thomann as well. I think they may have misunderstood what's happening. They may have heard/been informed that one of the 6 series would be discontinued and assumed that it must be the oldest in the line-up instead of the one before the latest. That would explain why they have removed the 600 but not the 660S....... They have the 650 660S and 660S2.
For the majority of HD600/650 long term users, and you are a long term user for a reason the pro 600/650 views will save many from being disappointed and their pocket book.
Amen to that.we all have different preferences in what we want out of a HP especially sound wise.
From my audition with the NDH30 there definitely was some familiar family traits, but more staging and bass...curious if you've had the 660S? The Neuman were on my short list (and maybe still are) after selling my Focal Elegia, although I have HD630VB I wasn't too sure about the form factor for their intended use and picked up my 3rd 660S instead, they were fine and then Sennheiser had to go and announce the new 6S.
Never heard 660S. I like my bass and my gripe against Clear/Utopia was their insufficient sub bass. I got a lot more from NDH30, but nothing touches HE6se so far for me (let alone my Rel S812 [insert evil laugh])From my audition with the NDH30 there definitely was some familiar family traits, but more staging and bass...curious if you've had the 660S?

Fostex Th900Mk2 eats all for bass even modded He6se from speaker taps..
I am not sure 20dB bass shelf is a fair comparison, but I get your point.
When sub bass is mentioned I think many confuse that with more bass instead of just widening the frequency window, sub bass will "silently" rattle the windows, not going to happen with headphones but every little bit helps.
Thats a nice looking sub...always wondering what I'll replace my Velodyne DD with if it ever fails.
