Having both on hand, this is absolutely not an HD 660 S. It's also not an HD 580 or an HD 580 Jubilee. It's something else entirely.
See I find it close enough... 660S has a few minor advantages/differences but to me they are just not very significant.
But yes, I do think the choice of naming it after the HD580 might cause some confusion. Ditto the Jubilee terminology. I suspect Sennheiser just wouldn't let them call it an HD66XS...
Is this thing closer in sound signature to the HD600 or the HD660 S?
It's quite close to HD660S, and closer to HD600 than it is to HD650. If that makes any sense.
