Someone from another forum I talked to had a HD580 and a HD600 - the original version with black silk screen and a brass ring around the inner coil. offer to sell at RM620 and RM700. Sounds like a good deal. Should I get hold either of this? I remember PcWork commented this being the best sounding of all??

These are pictures he sent of the HD600.

My 1st Gen HD600 has finally arrived. Comparison with a recent HD600 with the metallic screen (made in 2007 I think from the date printed on the driver inside) definitely shows some sonic differences.

The 1st gen HD600 sounds fuller, more spacious and depth in soundstaging. It is not so piercingly bright yet very clear and airy. In fact details and timbre seems very close to a HD800 without HD800's upper treble brightness and without HD800 timbral refinement.

Tried the Cardas cable and the DHC Aftermarket cables on both. The 1st gen definitely sounded so much more natural in its instrument presentation, while using the DHC cable make it sound harsh and a bit grainy. So I suppose the often talked about synergy between HD600 and Cardas cable is true after all.

As for the recent HD600, it seems that the cardas and DHC makes it sound even brighter so perhaps just a upgrade to a HD650 cable will be better.

Didn't really believe there was a difference until I get one because I was always bothered by the newer HD600 brightness compared to the rest of the Sennheiser that I have and listened to.

I am very amazed by the fact a 10 year old HD600 sound so close to a HD800... It has the Sennheiser house sound...This must be what the first batch when reviews define the HD600's legendary neutralilty and natural presentation of instruments. Definitely will keep this.

The box they give is really nice and can act as a storage box whereas others only give cardbox most of the time even if it cost an arm and leg.

was planning straight go for HD800, but from what i read here, HD 800 really need good source and it need good amp to drive it.
So better just get HD 650.

u cannot only cincai go for hd800
+ u wont know the pairing well 1st even u go for just the cables upgrade...matching is a b!t@^ with it
u will get headache/a lot of holes in wallet just to pair this monster with source and amp....
later u will blame that yur source and amp not up to task....that is the problem with high end headphones
unless u r keen into focus yur heart and attention into playing headphones and have deep wallet then it will reward u in near future....but not all ppl r keen into playing ...they rather go for hifi and it is about the same price as amp/dac/ hd800 setup....think carefully whether u wan to jump into it 1st or not....

haha.. i oso have similar problem..
found out clip+/fuze not bringing out full details..
need a gmod..
then.. amp is a b****.. secret amp can drive proper.. but still got rooms to improve..
dunno what else can.. not to mention finding one that drives good... i like w1 better, but its soo underpowered that soundstage is still closed and crammed... sweat.gif
dunno what cable to pair with it too.. shakehead.gif
seems like need a really good amp to get it to fly.. cant seem to replicate the memory on at timesquare TT on how good the vtg sounds....
er.. wait.. this is senns thread.. should i go to my hd201 (needs to reassemble first.. ) laugh.gif

Hahaha...quite agree there...getting source, amp to match the HD800 is a real pain... Spent almost close to the price of a HD800 just for the gear to match it now...
