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

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.

But you are using a HD650?

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.
