So HiFiMan aficionado's Is the extra money worth it for the 6? What about the HE-400 vs the 500? Which is the best bang for the buck?

I like the HE-500 more, however it's not too good of a value when you can grab a HE-400 for $350-400.
But comparing the HE-500 to the HE-6, it's great value.

if u wanna invest into a very powerfull amp also then the he6 is worth every penny. Buts its very expensive!
If u want a in ur face soundsignature with a bit agressive treble and basss then the he400 is ur best bang for ur buck..its also easy to drive!
If ur like me and dont like agressive phones and want more balanced phones..then without doubt the he500 or the even more neutral sounding he5le is ur best bang for ur buck..but also for these 2 u need a quality amp to make them sound on their best.

I have both and a HE-400.
 
Still waiting for my cables to have 100 Hour+ Burn in before i make any sudden judgement.

I doubt it, no Black Widows have shipped yet and only one Silver Widow has yet shipped, and that has already been reviewed.
 
It would also be better that reviews and comparisons of my cables are kept to those i actually made myself and not DIY cables, unless it is stated that the cable is a DIY effort.
 
I also do not, and will not be offering the Silver Widow wire to be purchased for DIY.

I kind of like the brushed finish better, but it makes no difference since they both look stunning.

Frank, did you receive my hard earned money? I just thought to ask since I haven't received an ok email yet.
