You will be going from one of the brightest popular headphones to a fairly warm headphone. Initially you likely will not like it. Also, the Grado is very easy to drive. The 6xx benefits from better upstream gear. If you really like the Grado sound, but want is a little less bright/harsh, I recommend a 225x or RS2e. You also might like beyerdynaic.Hi There,
I have sr60's and looking at the hd6xx as an upgrade I am starting to find my 60s a tiny bit harsh at the top too, what are your thoughts of transitioning from grado to the 6xx?
Obviously you might like the 6xx, but it will be quite a swing for you.
