Posted July 25, 2017 all good, 6XX is my choice although you might need an AMP and/or DAC for them to perform to their true potential -----> Official Unofficial Favorite Keyswitch Type Survey <----- OWNER OF THE FASTEST INTEL iGPU ON LTT UNIGINE SUPERPOSITION [lol] GAMING RIG "SNOWBLIND" CPU i5-13600k | COOLING Corsair H150i Elite Capellix 360mm (White) | MOTHERBOARD Gigabyte Z690 Aero G DDR4 | GPU Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision OC (White) | RAM 16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB (White) | SSD Samsung 980 Pro 1TB | PSU ASUS STRIX 850W (White) | CASE Phanteks G360a (White) | HEADPHONES Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro | KEYBOARD Zoom75 (KTT Strawberry w/ GMK British Racing Green keycaps) | MOUSE Cooler Master MM711 (White) | MONITOR HP X32 1440p 165hz IPS WORK RIG "OVERPRICED BRICK" Mac Studio (M2 Ultra / 128GB / 1TB) | HEADPHONES AirPods Pro 2 | KEYBOARD Logitech MX Mechanical Mini | MOUSE Logitech MX Master 3S | MONITOR 2x Dell 4K 32" SECONDARY RIG "ALCATRAZ" CPU i7-4770K OC @ 4.3GHz | COOLING Cryorig M9i (review) | MOTHERBOARD ASUS Z87-PRO | GPU Gigabyte 1650 Super Windforce OC | RAM 16GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600 MHz | SSD Samsung 860 Evo 512GB | HDD Toshiba 3TB 7200RPM | PSU EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 750W | CASE NZXT H230 | HEADPHONES Sony WH-1000XM3 | KEYBOARD Corsair STRAFE - Cherry MX Brown | MOUSE Logitech G602 | MONITOR LG 34UM58-P 34" Ultrawide HOLA NIGHT THEMERS GET YOUR ASS ON NIGHT THEME OTHER TECH I OWN: MacBook Pro 16" [M1 Pro/32GB/1TB] | 2022 Volkswagen GTI | iPhone 14 Pro | Sony a6000 | Apple Watch Series 8 45mm | 2018 MBP 15" | Lenovo Flex 3 [i7-5500U, HD5500 (fastest on the forum), 8GB RAM, 256GB Samsung 840 Evo] | PS5, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch [Home Theater setup] | DJI Phantom 3 Standard | AirPods 2 | Jaybird Freedom (two pairs) & X2 [long story, PM if you want to know why I have 3 pairs of Jaybirds] Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/812387-which-one-should-i-get/#findComment-10195542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty cool actually... so you could (kinda) use them on a subway or something if you really wanted to. -----> Official Unofficial Favorite Keyswitch Type Survey <----- OWNER OF THE FASTEST INTEL iGPU ON LTT UNIGINE SUPERPOSITION [lol] GAMING RIG "SNOWBLIND" CPU i5-13600k | COOLING Corsair H150i Elite Capellix 360mm (White) | MOTHERBOARD Gigabyte Z690 Aero G DDR4 | GPU Gigabyte RTX 3070 Vision OC (White) | RAM 16GB Corsair Vengeance Pro RGB (White) | SSD Samsung 980 Pro 1TB | PSU ASUS STRIX 850W (White) | CASE Phanteks G360a (White) | HEADPHONES Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro | KEYBOARD Zoom75 (KTT Strawberry w/ GMK British Racing Green keycaps) | MOUSE Cooler Master MM711 (White) | MONITOR HP X32 1440p 165hz IPS WORK RIG "OVERPRICED BRICK" Mac Studio (M2 Ultra / 128GB / 1TB) | HEADPHONES AirPods Pro 2 | KEYBOARD Logitech MX Mechanical Mini | MOUSE Logitech MX Master 3S | MONITOR 2x Dell 4K 32" SECONDARY RIG "ALCATRAZ" CPU i7-4770K OC @ 4.3GHz | COOLING Cryorig M9i (review) | MOTHERBOARD ASUS Z87-PRO | GPU Gigabyte 1650 Super Windforce OC | RAM 16GB Crucial Ballistix Sport DDR3 1600 MHz | SSD Samsung 860 Evo 512GB | HDD Toshiba 3TB 7200RPM | PSU EVGA SuperNOVA NEX 750W | CASE NZXT H230 | HEADPHONES Sony WH-1000XM3 | KEYBOARD Corsair STRAFE - Cherry MX Brown | MOUSE Logitech G602 | MONITOR LG 34UM58-P 34" Ultrawide HOLA NIGHT THEMERS GET YOUR ASS ON NIGHT THEME OTHER TECH I OWN: MacBook Pro 16" [M1 Pro/32GB/1TB] | 2022 Volkswagen GTI | iPhone 14 Pro | Sony a6000 | Apple Watch Series 8 45mm | 2018 MBP 15" | Lenovo Flex 3 [i7-5500U, HD5500 (fastest on the forum), 8GB RAM, 256GB Samsung 840 Evo] | PS5, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch [Home Theater setup] | DJI Phantom 3 Standard | AirPods 2 | Jaybird Freedom (two pairs) & X2 [long story, PM if you want to know why I have 3 pairs of Jaybirds] Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/812387-which-one-should-i-get/#findComment-10195896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted July 25, 2017 Everyone is different and will prefer different things. Don't get HD598's to start with when HD558's are so much cheaper, though. You won't regret owning HD6XX's; they have a unique signature that won't offend anyone's tastes and don't do anything poorly. Based on your last threads I think you'd be better off with HD600's if you can get them for the same price. Nobody will know what's best for you until you try something out. Try trying something out. Check your local subreddit(s)/universities/Craigslist for audition opportunities, visit an audio store. Listen to the things you're considering buying, see if you'd like to have them or if you think spending this much on audio is worth it (it's not for everyone). You're the only one who knows everything about your preferences. IMO it's not worth waiting until December and would get the K7XX or try finding a used pair of Senn HD580/600/650/6XX's. You may feel waiting longer for the better valued HD6XX's is worth it. All up to you.
