A few months ago vorlon1 and I got together and compared the K501 w/ K601, and the K701. All un-modded and as I recall all three sounded quite different. In a way I feel the K601 splits the difference between the K501 and the K501 but not quite excelling and IMO ending up as an "also ran". I will qualify my statement that unless you have the three side by side you would have a hard time making the call.
We also compared them w/ a Senn HD600 stock and w/ various re-cables. I am not a Senn guy so I ended up choosing the K501 as my favorite followed by the K701, both w/ an APureSound re-cable.
