this is great. i love that ur video is cut-less. makes it very intemit. like im talking to you. well done!
Awesomeness ❤️ Glad you enjoy the video.
This review will last as long as the headphones themselves bruv. Thanks for the honesty.
My pleasure, you're welcome.
Wow..you were so emotional at the moments, it got me! Like you had some huge descovery! :) and i assume you did
Great and informative review, with detailed descriptions of sound quality that match my experience. One night of opening them around a block a little larger than my head solved the clamping issue for me.
I don't mind them on my Loxjie P20, in balanced mode (they are unusable in single ended), but I do hear the distortion, and there is some music that it doesn't work on. I did order some cheap Soviet tubes, but that was more for the novelty, and less the sound quality. I'll let you know... I generally use the HD 600s with the Archel Pro that I only ordered because I was impressed with the Enog2 Pro and the service of the company. The Archel Pro is nice, clean, and has perty lights.
Thank you for the kind words and watching.
The P20 really befuddled me with the HD600. I thought it would be a good match.
Yes the Geshelli stack has great synergy with the HD600. It's almost like Geno and Sherri built it specifically for the HD600 🤔
A good soundstage as appose to none or very little will create even more seperation and air making them breath even more would stop it getting confused and meshing things together when there is a lot going on in the mix so totally understand what your saying
It is still incredibly close to perfection than most
Lovely review as always Dave. Glad you managed to pick up a pair of these, the HD 580 and 600 are my absolute favourite headphone of all time. Everything I listen to on them sounds just so 'right'. The timbre and tonality is something I've not come across on any other headphone I've tried, including some over three times the price of these. Unfortunately, I feel the new HD 58x and 660s don't rival the overall smoothness and treble 'sweetness' that these have - so I feel you've made a good choice getting these over them, likewise with the Classics over the Argons.
Take care.
Thank you for the kind words. Best timbre and tonality I have heard, besting Focal, ZMF and MrSpeakers and I think very highly of those. And the HD600 is 22 years old 😁👍
@@TheHonestAudiophile I know! It's crazy how good they are considering their age. I have a pair of HD 565 Ovation headphones which preceded the 580/600, and are over 25 years old... Still performing great to this day.
@@dnalekaw4699 That's awesome!!!
@@TheHonestAudiophile Wow!!!!!!!! ''besting Focal, ZMF and MrSpeakers'' that's a huge claim, considering their price point.
Nice review, I very love my HD600 and HD800
Thank you for the kind words and for subscribing.
Lovely video dude xx
Thanks 🙏
Sennheiser hd600 if they had more soundstage you would have more are between seperation which would make everything breath even more and when a lot of things going on will get confused and mesh things together
So reasonable soundstage would turn a nearly perfect headphone into a perfect one
But with all that there still truly awesome and all the series from hd580 all deserve there legendary status in this world

Thank you for this great video Dave. I'm very interested in the HD600, but I want to ask if you think they'll be able to be properly amplified by an iFi Hip-dac2 with an output of 400 mW. Thanks.
Sorry haven't heard a Hip DAC V2 but that is somewhat low for the 300ohm HD600.
Please start comparison videos, specially HD6 series VS Elex.
I have some comparisons planned for the upcoming weeks.
Great review. Please do review HD58X from Massdrop.
I will gladly do a review of the HD58X if I ever come across one. Maybe someone can send one in for review. Thanks for the kind words.
Thank you so much for this important review😊.
In your opinion, which headphones are the best if I want to consider all the important elements in the sound - neutrality, details, resolution, and soundstage? The Sennheiser HD 600 or other headphones?
Thanks in advance
Staying in similar price and with Sennheiser, the 660s2.

Nice review! I have mine for just over 20 years now and thus can vouch for durability. I only recently replaced the stock cable. I am in the market for something new though with all the 600’s qualities but added base and soundstage. I know not an easy task, the Aeon open 2 might be up to the task?
Wow 20 years, awesome. I haven't heard the Aeon Flow 2. What about the Focal Elex? Or do you want to go with a planar?
David Sylvia Not sure yet, I need to try both I think 👍
@@cryptout I love the Focal Elex. I really enjoyed the original Aeon Flow Open.
@suhndog I haven't heard the Grado SR225 but I have heard the SR325 and enjoy them.
Today "I took home" HD600's from the store ( the new version without sparkly headband, and with more humble case. I looked for smth good for producing music, and mixing. I got to compare them to DT880 Edition 600Ohm (comfy while oddly small for my ears..and they had that added Beyer brightness, and they really need substantial power), HD 660s ( complicated to compare - some tracks sounded better, some worse compared to HD 600 - in the end not better enough to squeeze that extra from the pocket), DT1990 ( same comfort remarks as for 880, nice full sound, but still with that nasal smth in treble which was nice on some tracks, but...again - not better enough for extra buck), HD 560s...- maybe they are analytical but by exposing some frequencies...they kind of made me deaf to others. Finally - Ananda...above my budget by a lot, but...hmmm. Yes the space and separation was impressive...and on "The Battle" from the Gladiator soundtrack they managed to reveal a lot in those busy ffff parts - at least it seemed so. BUT - HD 600 are, I'd say: just right. They really seem a bit like actual active studio monitors. All that's needed to be heard is there, but in just the right amount. Interestingly - sure they are a bit quiet from an iPhone ( with Apple dongle), but iPad and MacBook deliver enough power not to have to max out the volume.
Glad you enjoy the HD600. Thanks for the impressions.
@@TheHonestAudiophile - well, actually you are the one to be thanked. Your reviews are usually my “go to” when planning a purchase, and if you say something is good it actually proves to be “good” when I listen to it. So thanks, and looking forward for more.
Awesomeness 😎 Glad you find the reviews helpful.
Thanks for the kind words.
Been watching your channel since the beginning...have you tried the hd6xx?
I haven't had the pleasure of hearing the hd6xx. I heard the HD650 in store when choosing the HD600.
@@TheHonestAudiophile Care to share your impression of the HD650? Thanks
@@massivemikeh Well I don't have a lot of time with them and it was in a store setting and a few months ago so take the following statement very lightly. The HD650 was warmer, bassier and less treble but still had a lovely, smoothness tone.
@@TheHonestAudiophile Thanks for that David. The HD6xx have been reviewed to death. Lol. I was just interested in YOUR take. You are a good reviewer mate. Keep it up! Cheers.
@@massivemikeh You are welcome. Thanks for the kind words.
I find 6xx holding up pretty good on Aune x7s vs my Elex. I know it’s not HD600 but it’s pretty close. I’m having hard time justifying owning the Elex tbh. The tonality on both is so good
The X7S just has a way of being full bodied, energetic and detailed. I really do enjoy the Elex in the X7s. I haven't heard the 6xx/650 on the X7s but I do look forward to comparing the HD600 and Elex.
When my Elex return after being out on loan I will do a comparison of the HD600, Elex and the HD650. I will try to remember to mention the X7s.
Awesome! I’m looking forward to your video
You must smell them ;)
the 2019 are the same??????
Apparently they are grey now instead of granite/pebble but the sound is still the same.
@@TheHonestAudiophile Good because I hate the old original mosaic thing, I prefer the new grey, but my concern is they downgrade or change the quality, you know sound quality is first than design.
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz I personally have not heard the revised version. But from what I have read and been told is that the sound is still the same.
@@TheHonestAudiophile Maybe I buy the news ones, thanks.
@@JohnSmith-zl8rz I look forward to hearing back from you with your thoughts and impressions.
