I haven't tried if it's really possible to get both sound the same with EQ - there are things that you just can't EQ. I don't know how modern HD 650 measures but compared to current HD 560S (i.e. HD 400 Pro) I do prefer my HD 6XX (with current pads, just replaced) over it. HD 650 being not as...

My HD 6XX (2018) came with the box and it has indeed been very handy.

In my experience HD 660S sound very muffled, muddy and lacks detail and doesn't have as smooth texture as HD 650. My HD 6XX has airier sound Also doesn't have the same full bodies sound as HD 650/600/58X (I do wear glasses, the way 58X and 650 are tuned can very well be beneficial when it comes...

Would be just much more simpler to open Windows volume mixer and mute system sound.

There's no point in sound quality if the headphone is a torture device physically.

Well, that measurement graph looks pretty much how I perceived it. It had "holes". When I wanted to upgrade my HD 595s (because they were falling apart - you might guess where), I bought Sennheiser HD 700. After listening to them one minute I packed them and returned them. Then I bought these...

At least my HD 660S sound very dark and lacks clarity and detail. It sound like the sound comes under the ground or there's billows between the driver and ears. Somehow the 6K area is too pronounced relative to surrounding. It makes the treble sound opposite of smooth but not more detailed. In...

Just received my replacement unit today. That was a long wait but it's finally back. I must say that Topping's apology letter probably doesn't help (in fact, it does the opposite...). I'd highly appreciate it if manuals, website and other documents would be translated properly (by actual...

If you have a microphone enabled & connected it might be a good idea to do this: Sometimes that can mess up the volume depending on the use case.

Looks good up to 1kHz and the rest doesn't make sense.

I do have HD668B... IMO it's a physical and aural torture device. Hurts to use it in so many ways.

Good thing I bought mine from Finland so replacement should be straight forward and the shop is on top of the situation.

I can only use my "HD 600" if I take my HD 58X apart since I happen to have just two HD 600 driver capsules. They do have other differences other than frequency response, fore example, HD 600 plays a bit louder. Out of all HD 600 series headphones (including HD 58X) HD 660S is the most different.

Personally I haven't found anything that I would like more than my HD 6XX. HD 600 is close but sounds a bit artificial and ear straining. HD 6XX just sounds like I expect things to sound and "the feel" is right - how it creates the sound stage, depth, position and all. It "sounds full" and can...

Really? To me L30 11.00 (~40%), E30 -12dB and L30 on unity gain is pretty much the limit. Anything higher and it wouldn't be comfortable and I'd start to worry about my hearing.
