    Sennheiser HD660 S vs HD650 - Which side are you on?

    I remember vocals being noticeably more forward in the mix on the 600 compared to the 650. Vocals on the 650 seemed slighty recessed and less "clear". How does the 660 S render vocals? Are they as forward as the 600, as recessed as the 650 or are they somewhere in between?

    The DT 770, 880 & 990 cost less than half as much than the HD 650 & 600 and I think you get what you paid for. Out of curiosity, I bought the DT 770, 880 & 990 and to my ears, all 3 sound like they belong in the ATH-M50X class of headphones, which I use for monitoring purposes at my job. The...
