As a HD 600 owner, I waited on the HD660s because of so many negative reviews. After I received my "refurb pair" this week, I can tell you I don't know what these guys are hearing. The HD660s is absolutely great. I feel like i've been cheating out of years of possible enjoyment...

I applaud Tyll here for staying true to his ears. He's become somewhat of the black sheep in the headphone community lately, but I think we need those differing opinions that give a point of view that isn't part of the "hype train". It's important to be critical in these matters and is very helpful hearing some possible downsides with this set of cans. As was the case for the Sony Z1R, time will tell if the 660s captures the hearts of the masses.

Speaking as someone who owns both the HD650 and HD660S, I can easily recommend taking this review with a grain of salt. I respect Tyll's opinions on the HD660S, but I found the new sound signature to be a welcome change and a great overall improvement. Also - Sennheiser isn't discontinuing the HD650 anytime soon.

To me to FR sounds about the same between the two, with the 660S being slightly more crisp and impactful because of the faster driver. I personally like them better than the 650.

For people that are still wondering about what Tyll's taking about, he is right to some extent. So, the 600 and 650 are indeed smoother sounding headphones because of the drivers, but it's not that the 660S is a grainy headphone, it's just that it's not a forgiving headphone. In my experience I love the 660S because of how detailed and wider they are in comparison (even tho the treble isn't as extended as it should be) but the fact is, I feel exhausted after a while of using the headphone because they have too much detail and texture, it's not grain, just giving you all the flaws there are in the recording. While the 600 and 650 can be heard for hours without issues, losing the detail the 660S has. It's your choice, both are great headphones.

I'm already anxious abouw the "new" version of the HD600 and if it's REALLY E X A C T L Y the same as the old ones while having a peek at the 660S. Back then I chose the 600 over the 650 on purpose.

This is the worst... Tyl video of all time. I have the HD 660s and I couldn't disagree more. The HD 660s do everything that the HD 650s do but slightly better. For example more detail, less dark, imaging more precise, and to me mids wonderfully engaging. In any case, ears and tastes differ a lot from person to person, so I might believe that someone might disagree (although I find it really weird to be honest). However, one thing is sure: this level of disappointment makes no sense, and neither does yours and that of people who liked your msg. Tyl must have had a faulty unit, a faulty amp or a faulty pair of ears that day. Regarding the price difference... People compare the price of the HD 660s with that of the Massdrop 6xx, which is already misleading: they should compare it with the price of the HD 650s. The price difference with the 6xx is mostly given by the Massdrop business model, and many reviewers 'forget' to say that. If Massdrop decides to sell a version HD 660s, the price difference would be significantly smaller, I would say around 50 - 60 dollars.

I own the 660s and had the 650s as well. The 660s is more capable technically - it's quicker and appears to be more resolving. But it doesn't give me goosebumps. It sounds slightly off and the timbre is slightly metallic and homogeneous. It has a massive dip in the upper treble region, by as much as 10db, so while everything sounds clearer, everything sounds a bit dull and lifeless on these. Like Tyll says, music sounds quite compressed on these. Clear and super resolving but with frequency response of a cassette almost. There's a lot of detail in the midrange and lower treble, then it just dies off. It's still a great headphone and I enjoy them but you're losing some of that natural sound the HD600 and 650 are famous for for some extra detail and clarity.

Now it seems all we really have for somewhat relevant reviews is Zeos and I have had more purchases sound nothing like he described than ones that do.

I had no yearning to buy the 660's, but decided to look them up randomly on here. It seems like he still has his integrity + will enjoy this hobby for the rest of his life. The 580's were one of the "wow" moments for him in headphones, so you can see why he was emotional about these. I definitely value his opinion.

@o.f.ftrack34445 жыл бұрын
Two things i'll agree with Tyll on here. One is that the 660 shouldn't be considered a successor. Not because they aren't good enough, but because the 600 and 650 shouldn't be discontinue(if they are). Two, the lack of a cable designed for portable use. It's pretty foolish to advertise that ability while not providing a cable to do so. Outside of that the 660 is simply better than the 650 and 600. I was confused the majority of the time by some his comments, most of which were emphasizing the smoothness or lack of smoothness in the different headphones. While a "creamy" sound is enjoyable, it doesn't mean that the headphone is better. The 660 most certainly has more detail and the imaging is also better. I can't speak on its ability to scale with different amps but there's not much that I can point to that the 660 isn't better at than the 600 & 650.

i went and bought the 660s after seeing zeos and metal571s reviews. I also have the hd600 for quite a while and when i started comparing the two i wasnt really sure if i liked the 660s more or if they where just different. they where clearly the faster headphone specialy in the bass. drums sounded a lot snappier. but there was also something unnatural about them. it was something in the treble that didnt feel totally right. However now that they had some time to burn in (i guess) they really do sound right and i actualy like them more than the 600s now. when i first listen to the 600 and then switch to 660 its like taking of some foam that muffles the sound a little bit. the music seems to have more air between the instruments and therefore sounds more ''fresh". i still like the 600s specialy for vocals but they often make me sleepy cause they are soo relaxed and lean sounding. the 660s are not the opposite of that but for me they are just in the right spot between pumpin and relaxed sounding. i also have the beyerdynamic dt770pro 80 ohms, akg q701 and hd599 and to me the 660s sounds the best out of all of them. i think they are the fastest with the tightest bass which i like. I do like to use eq apo to bring down the midbass just a bit(1 or 2 db) boost subbass by 5db and boost uppermids(3500hz) by 2 db. for me this makes them just that much more balanced.

dtz1000 i dont think this is really the case. In my experience the 660s sounds a little bit faster and more dynamic than the 600s and vocals are a bit less forward witch makes them more balanced imo. The 600s are more neutral though. So for accoustic or classical they are the best i think but with some modern music they can be boring compared to the 660s. I have them both beside me but i use the 660s more often.
@stemplar00075 жыл бұрын
It's the truth . Alongside many subjects. I have a 660s / 650. There was no EQ for the 650. The 660 gives you a small (+ 15-25%) bass, in which case spatial / instrument separation, bass / middle / difference diverts the 660 right (!) Sound (more modern/faster) However, short cables can be purchased. This does not change, it may not be a continuation of a radical novelty. But do not be conservative. (I really like 650's voice too.)

I got my pair of 660 s's two days ago, and I absolutely LOVE them. My audio source is a very good motherboard (AsRock Z390 Phantom 9), a Kiio K3 DAC/Amplifier, using Equalizer Pro as my EQ, and listening to mostly DSD files and streaming high bit-rate audio from Qobuz.com, and man, when all of those things are in place, these headphones sound perfect. The clarity and balance of the sound comes through, even though I like to play with the EQ settings on certain types of songs. Just remember that if you're going to spend several hundred dollars on headphones, your audio source, amplifier, EQ, and file format, are all HUGE factors in the sound. Don't buy these if you're using an older/cheap motherboard, no amp, no EQ, and you're going to listen to lower-quality files like mp3's or streaming from Apple Music or Pandora. Might as well just buy a pair of $50 headphones if you don't want to do all of the other things needed to get the best possible sound out of these.

In a German review here on youtube the reviewer favoured an X2 over the 650, but he recently did the 660s and that is now his new reference headphone. But only after a serious break-in period. Right out of the box they didn't sound good in the highs.
@shameite746 жыл бұрын
I own the HD600's and the X2's and they are very close in sound signature except for the X2's having more bass. The only problem is that the X2's are not a good match for the Bottlehead Crack or other OTL amps due to it's impedance. And they are no where near as comfortable as the HD600's to me. Not sure about X2's scaling. I am scared to try the HD660S because Tyll is usually spot on and he likes the Sennheiser brand. So for him to say this about them, I would bet on him before I would bet against him. I am going to wait until I can hear them somewhere. I do not want to loose $500.00.

@@carageaelvis6321 You're welcome. I've listened to them few days back on a hybrid xDuoo TA-10 and just today with a Chord Mojo. They sound great and while different than the HD600, there is zero reason to be disappointed or dramatic as Tyll is here. They are much better in detail and speed and trade only a bit of that smoothness.

@MorriganJade6 жыл бұрын
I think this headphone would be suited for my applications. I don't use the HD 558 as a portable solution, but do love having it at my desk, without AMP or DAC (since I don't hear any problem that I'm considering getting one). I'm also on a tight budget and will probably be left without being able to get proper AMP/DACs with proper headphones in a very long time. This headphone however makes it (probably) possible for me to use it behind my PC without any other device required that would cost me extra. Maybe if I'm getting older and get a proper income I might actually be able to jump into the "personal end-game". But this headphone, for me, sounds like a perfect "access to high end, at a lower cost for people with a tighter budget". Yes, the headphone might be "expensive", but I won't be needing anything else for some time, yet still have a great sound (though lacking in some aspects compared to the older family members).

@lumntoob9996 жыл бұрын
Mr2pint if they discontinue anything it will be either the 600 or both 600 and 650, both are much more likely to be discontinued than just the 650.

Tyll, has your opinion changed in any aspect on these cans since reviewing? You are the only KZfaq review I have seen that did not think these we superior over the 600 and 650. I have always valued your reviews and that is why I am asking if you have any review changes on these. In my opinion you are always spot on. Thanks in advance for the reply!

I really enjoy your measurement and logic/mostly objective reviews. It's a refreshing change from the hi-fi media that overhypes things because they don't want to lose ad revenue, or rabid fanboys that can't seem to ever find anything wrong with the brand. Based on your review, I'd place those cans BELOW my $100 Audio-Technica.

They get mellower once they break in a bit, including the pads, they are quite stiff out of the box and the drivers are a bit too far from your ears, you can tell a new pair sounds a tad tinny compared to a one used a couple of months.
