This was my entry in the audiophile world, and for a lot of reasons, I'm still love this and will love to the last day. I don't see too much talk or praise to this guy, and I think that's not fair at all! I like this more than the 600, more than the 6XX and belive it or not, I don't hear much (or any) difference from him to a 660S. He is cheaper than all his brothers, and much easier to drive proppely, has more bass and clarity to me, and continues being one of the best headphones in the world to me, even comparing with my others much more expensive stuff. I did not saw any 58X in the Sennie day, so here is my humble contribution to the king!

I also like the 58X better than the other HD6 series. I used the 650 for years, 58X improves upon it with tighter bass and less forward upper midrange. On top of that, I also agree the 660S sound basically the same (except more bass extension on the 58X).

they are still my favorite open back under $200. Definitely the most fun Senny I’ve tried because of the bass it provides

Haha solid unit! I dropped mine and dented the mesh all the way up against the driver. Still sounds exactly the same and now with the added dent i know for sure which side is right or left lol.

The biggest difference is that the HD600 is much more forward in the upper mids around 3 KHz. I'm pretty sensitive in that area, so it makes the HD600 unpleasant at higher listening volumes. A lesser difference is that the HD58X has better extended and tighter sounding bass, though that might mostly just be because I can comfortably listen a bit louder than with the HD600.

It's been years since I've had the HD600, but I would say that on treble quality (extension and evenness) the HD600 is probably better than the HD58X, so if you listen to a lot of acoustic music, especially string instruments, and you don't mind the shout around 3KHz, the HD600 is probably a better choice.

I would take the 6XX's over the 58X's. I appreciate the warmth with the 58X's, but as soon as you start to crank 'em, they distort pretty badly.

That stand is wicked. Not very functional though by the looks?

I use this stand to my LCD 2, he embrace each side of it perfectly from the top and works fine, but in that photo was in that position just for the sake of the cool effect lol.
