I really loved my old hd595 120ohm version, They fell apart in the end, Cracks on both sides and the headband snapped so I sent them into sennheiser for repairs thinking they would just install give me a new headband for me but they sent back a brand new pair of hd598 beige and they were so...

The HD600 (to me !) are the best hd6*** as they change in tone with every different song i play much much more than the hd660s2 hd650 does . When i had the hd660s2 they sounded the same playing different types of music ...It's like the tone of the headphone never goes away your stuck with it on...

Luckily i've never had that problem only with cables breaking under the strain relief at the headphone socket connection ... the problem you talk about with springs failing is why i sold my cardas cable as i didnt wanna risk it . I did once snap the very thin wire on an old hd580 driver once...

I've only tried a few aftermarket pads but none of them sounded good as stock. The ones I've tried are Elite Velour and these sounded horrible with the hd600 the yaxi pads were better but not as good. Saying this tho I prefer the sound of the stock pads when they go flatter ....but then I hate...

The new updated sennheiser pads I like as they don't go flat as quickly as the old ones ... but both of my newer pads have come away from the plastic retaining ring never happen on the old pads The old ones were softy too

If you are using a Windows PC get the Creative ZxR soundcard and use the older sbx pro software (not the new sound command software ) Then you have of 24db ...HD600 sound awesome with this card and it will blow away what you have now and you can keep the hd600 Just use the eq without the sound...

Hello , Has anyone ever tried fitting the Beyerdynamic headbands to the HD600 like the one on the TYGR 300R headphone ? I've gone through so many sennheisers headband padding as they dont last long I even tried the aftermarket gel pad from dekoni and that one is rubbish way worse than stock...

My hd660s2 came with the 4.4mm cable not sure about the newer600/650

My 1st impression are they are better than the hd650 for me.. i wasn't a massive fan of hd650 tho i much prefer the hd600 The sound is more powerful and it sounds like a in-between hd650 hd600 more so hd650 ..in the middle. It's missing the lovely treble sparkle of the hd600 have and mids are...

my excellent sounding hd600

I've never heard the hd540 yes the hd580 are very similar to the hd600 :)

Hi, The black silk version does belong to the Precision model and it's most popular difference from white and black ..not much hard to say really ! But my white version might have a little more bass

They probably are the black silk version you have . Pull the earpads off and take a look Here are 2 different types white and black silk . Also comes in black paper version these are rarer ( I can't remember if the black paper came in the precision version someone will correct me) around...

I wish sennheiser would redesign the ear cups and make them a little bigger and deeper as wearing them all day its little uncomfortable for me. I think the new pads from the hd660s are better than the old tho as they don't go as flat a quickly , think they get a little hotter than old ones

exactly how I felt with the speedball too At first I didn't like it then i used the 5998 with mullard then I was like yes! sold it after years as I wasn't using it bought another one a year later with no speedball and loved it with my old tubes So so that bought a crackatwo but for some...
