I love my 20+ year old HD600 and for between 300-400€ I would consider buying an improved refresh, but at almost 600€, the S2 it's not for me, maybe if my unit fails, the regular HD660 may do.
Also, Fiio has just released a new headphone that FR wise, seems to be close to the Sennheiser HD6?? family, but with increased bass, anyway it's very new so I'll wait for more reviews, these are some measurements from Kuulokenurkka, compared to HD650 and HD600 (I haven't been able to add the HD660) :
(edit): I correct myself, there's an important difference at aprox. 10Khz, at the same website there's an extra measurement with felt that tames that peak, so at stock these seem to have hotter treble than the Sennheisers.
