When I first listened to them they sounded like they were missing treble, compared to the HD-600. Now I realize that it wasn't that it was missing, it was just more refined. I really do like this headphone now and I have had the 600s as my only headphone for the last 8 years.
Some headphones give an instant wow factor and show off and others take a little time for you to appreciate, the former while being impressive at first usually becomes fatiguing but the latter are the headphones that become the keepers for long term listening. HD600/650/660 fit this discription quite well. I personally prefer musicality over pure technical ability. I find many headphones/ IEMS that have this incredible technical ability lack soul and sound too "mechanical".
