One must remember that the ability to hear subtle differences in sound and the ability to recognize subtle differences in sound must be present in order for said differences to be ... heard and recognized.
One of the reasons some people spend insane amounts on audio and others are happy with their clock radio is that some people can hear decidedly better than others. Some people just can't hear some of the things people on this forum talk about. But it's okay. Life will go on.
Then there's having an audiophile ear. Even if you have excellent hearing -- you can hear dog whistles and light bulbs, say -- you might not be able to hear the difference between two close pieces of audio gear. That's because you don't know what to listen for. This is an acquired skill -- whether acquiring it is a good thing is obviously up to your discretion.
I haven't heard the HD580 or the HD600. I don't know if a difference exists. But I trust that it does based on the many opinions I've read on this board.
