Okay another noob question, (sorry in advance) If I already own a HD800S & HD700 with a Jot/Modi multibit can anyone foresee If I would even need these? Would they be possibly a nice middle ground between the 2 HP's? Since I got the HD800s last year the HD700 has been relegated to portable porch sitting with my Opus 1.
Are the cables interchangeable with the HD800S?

Easy, get rid of the 700 and buy the 6XX.

Edit: To be more clear, the 700 is like the person child of the 800, I don't see any point in having both. The 650 will be a much better pair of phones to compliment the 800.

Are these going to be made in Germany or at a different plant like China? 

 
 
Made in Ireland just like the "regular" HD600 and HD650.

Article says made in Ireland.

I just requested them on massdrop but looks like I'll have to wait as over 9000 have already requested. I need to sell some headphones anyways.

Massdrop doesnt work like that... Jude mentioned they will drop at 10.00am PDT with only 5000 being available. So you havent missed them.. once they are available at 10.00am you will probably need to be quick with your buy reservation.

Well that's good to know. So I just need to be quick when they do drop I'm assuming?

Also, has anyone used the 650s with an ibasso dx80? I assume they will need ample power to sound their best.

So I have to wake up at 3am. Great.

Actually i am trying to read it right... Maybe they go active on the 8th of November..??

Its worth looking into the new law that says imports amounting to less than Php10,000.00 is not going to be taxed. 

Just read through it. States that this applies to anything with a de minimis value of 10,000 or lower. Not mentioned was whether shipping costs adds onto the value.

That's what I heard. But if it's 10am pdt that's 3am for me.

Massdrop says Nov 8th at 6am PT

Edit: I guess you are in straya so your time would be different than mine

This is a question unrelated to this post, but as I was browsing Jude's profile, I came across a headphone he noted as "Sennheiser HD 469". I have never heard or seen the HD 469 before and a google search reveals absolutely nothing on it whatsoever. Does anyone know what the Sennheiser HD 469 is?? It's bothering me

Oh that was a special collaboration between Jude and Sennheiser. He's the only person who owns one. I'm kidding of course. If it doesn't show on google then he probably just mistyped it. He probably meant HD439.

Always wanted to check the HD650 out. For $200 bucks I'll definately be getting a pair and probably recommending them to others.

I'm very interested, but I have no idea if my current sources can power this properly. I'm coming from an HD598, and I have:
 

1. HTC 10
2. Fiio E11

 
Can either of these drive the HD6xx properly?
