K601 sounds flatter than my Q701, but with ODAC. With a colored amp/dac, the K601 can sound like poop and be harsh and fatiguing.
K601 has better imaging than the Q701 I think and is a bit warmer and less detailed. It's a bit darker too. It's a nice alternative to the HD-600.
Sorry, off topic..oh and those are just My preferences. Not which is best overall and for everyone. the K501 is nice, but it's soundstage is too larger for me. Larger than the Q701.
how would you rank:
550
601
Q701
?
