I would agree with this analysis as well. I have heard HD600 from better rigs than mine and they scale very nicely and sound even better but they sound darn fine with my lower cost amp and sound pretty darn sweet even from my Auzentech Forte card. The HD595 on the other hand are really designed to be used on lower impdence systems and do not change alot in the way they sound if the OP gets a better amp down the road.
BTW the Nuforce amp HeadphoneAddict is recommending will balance out the sound of the HD600 quite well since it's a colder amp (something I get from my amp as well) and as he has said if you get an even better amp later you can still use the Nuforce amp as a USB based DAC. You get decent sound today without throwing away your investment tomorrow.
