500+ Head-Fier
yeah i read somewhere in youtube comment section that some people prefer the hd 58x jubilee rather the hd 6xx? But why though ? I thought the bigger numbers means the its the better headphones LOL. Is the hd 58x uses some kind of new driver than the hd 6xx ? In my country the hd 58x is being sold around the same price of the hf 580
Basically, the HD58X has less roll off in the bass compared to the 6XX and slightly smoother treble. It does feature a new driver that's easier to drive and it's cheaper. There are still people that prefer the 6XX over the 58X but I think if you're starting out the 58X would be a better choice because it's a similar experience but less dependent on the audio chain than the 6XX. The HD58X's advantages over the HF 580 is that it's lighter, has a replaceable cable, and is easier to drive from a portable source like a phone. Other things to consider would be the cost of the pads and mods for the HF 580 if you decide to go that route. The only common mod that I have seen on the HD58X is removing the foam behind the driver which is free and not strictly necessary. But sound-wise, I doubt you could go wrong with either headphone.
