I have the A900 (work)and HD595 (bed). I think the HD595s (50 ohm) are better overall and improve more with an amp. Course I'm an open unless closed is needed guy. Situation dictates much of owning one over another or both. Still if properly amped (which sometimes seems never ending upgrade) the HD650 beats the HD595 on almost every level (as does the K701 above) except low power requirements. The HD595 (especially at current street prices) is a great deal though. I'd have no problem recommending it for anyone with or without an amp. Although the HD555 or MS1 may make more sense is some cases, the price difference is getting smaller all the time.
