They do feel a bit tight clamp wise when new but diminish's in a short time and you barely notice it after they've been worn for a while.
No, the soundstage of the 650 is much better than the M50s. My brother bought a set of M50s and I was very surprised how shallow and tight to you the soundstage was.
The o2 just doesn't hit the check boxes for me. I just don't enjoy the sound that it produces with any of my headphones....their is just no musicality present for me. The Schitt amps are all about musicality and an emotional experience. I highly recommend them. Only real downside is the heat, but performance for the price can not be beat in my book.

Sold the Asgard.Bought the lyr.
I'm guessing when you say the bass was lacking is because you were using the HD-600 with it. That makes more sense now. Clip+ only has so much power
I bet the HD-600 needs 100% volume from the Clip+. That's what my KRK KNS-8400 needs. Around 100% for classical.
After much more research, I decided to put the hifiman he400 on the list to compete with the 650 and beyer 990.
At 360 usd, its the same price as the 650. Replaceable cable and pads also add the plus comparing to 650. But the expensive equipment needed for 650 are now a minus point vs the easier to drive he400.
One issue with the he400 is comfort. At 440 grams an posibly tight clamp, I dont know if can accept this cans or not. I can buy velour pads no problem, but still the clamp and weight issue is there.
Any comment for the he 400 compared to the 650?
I find the m50 clamp is too much post stretch and the pad is smaller than my ear. It becomes on my ear and add the clamp, serious pain and discomfort after 30-45 mins.
if the he400 got the same issue, then its a no. Will try it later with 990pro when have the time.
