Reply to comment by klogg4 in Hi. For gaming, do you migrate from HD560s to 600, 6xx, 650, or 660? To continue the wide soundstage and directional imaging. by ostuniman

People need to stop that "midrange" rant about Sennheiser, it's not even the tenth reason why they're so good because there're a lot of other headphones that do midrange correctly.

And yes, AKG K612 are one of them.

Still AKG K612, and leave HD560s as your music phones. Trust me, if you're after spatial and imaging characteristics, the whole HD6xx series is not for you, but AKG K6xx/K7xx surely is.

Agreed with u/klogg4 here.

I love my HD650, and I did a lot of gaming with them. But, the 6xx series is not the best with spatial cues or separation.

If you only want to own one pair of cans, primarily for music with only some casual gaming, they're hard to beat.

If you think having a dedicated pair of cans for gaming will suddenly make you an eSports God, then the HD6xx series won't satisfy you.

Sennheiser soundstage and directional imaging under $500 … simply aren’t anywhere near as large or expansive or detailed in that space, when compared to AKG in the same price range.
