Just received my HD6XX today, even though the tracking wasn’t updated since June.11. For the people on here ordering from Canada, I had to pay $48.86 at the door. That’s gst/hst and a 9.95 handling fee, I’m happy with that, was worried about how much it would be. So the grand total for these headphones was $336.43CAD, currently on amazon.ca it would cost me a total of $629.77CAD for the HD650.
These sound much better than my HD598. I chose as my first song “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac. I’m very familiar with this song and noticed a difference from the beginning. The bass is much improved, more detail in the midrange and I found a big difference with Stevie’s voice. It felt like she was singing in the same room with me. I felt giddy just listening after a few minutes, the same way I did the first time that I used an amp/dac. The clamping force is stronger than the 598 but doesn’t bother me, I used the 280pro for years and had no problem with those. I’m using the Topping D3 amp/dac to power these and it’s doing a fine job.
So happy with my purchase, thank you Massdrop!

FlyByNightI feel your pain, @FlyByNight ... we Canadians get hosed at the border. If one were to buy the HD650 at a bricks-and-mortar store, we'd be paying double the price. Re: Fleetwood Mac. Stevie Nix can belt it out. Just wait until you spin up her solo album, eh... Cheers from Hogtown.
