      Drum me out of the High End if you must, but I have a shameful confession to make: I love headphones. I know, I know, I'm supposed to preface my comment with a lofty disclaimer, such as, "Of course, given my refined sensibilities, I could never derive satisfaction from such a compromised listening apparatus, but many of you seem to enjoy them." Well, pardon me for saying so, but pfffftttt!Read more

                On a tonal level, there is a meaningful difference. The HD580 sounds lighter, with more upper mids presence to it to make it feel more open and alive despite having the same soundstage. Or to put it another way, the HD600 sounds dull in comparison.Aug 7, 2022
