Refusal to take responsibility.
Hi, Just thought I would make a note here of your handling of my issues. I ordered a pair of HD6xx headphones and then earlier today recieved the package. I drive to go and get it, as I like in the UK I had to pay import tax and handling fees. These total £47.92. The breakdown being £35.92 in tax and £12 in fees. These taxes were calculated of the shipping label of the box, which marked the shipment as the 6xx headphones of $199 value. Before leaving the parcel depot, I open the box to find a $35 lord of the rings mousepad. So now the problem is not only do I not have the headphones, but you have marked the shipment wrong so I have paid £47.92 fees for the handling of the mousepad. Which would have acrued £0 of fees if marked correctly as it is under £135. I go back to the desk but as I have already paid the fees I am unable to reject the shipment, but as the box said 6xx, there was no way for me to know before opening it. I contact support and they offer me a replacement, which...

If you're already used to hi fidelity sound, then these will greatly reduce fatigue, and have you listening to music for hours on end as the design is super comfortable.
Note that it falls way short on being airy or open, compared to the 4xx so soundstage is the only drawback... but in no way a deal breaker.
I just purchased the audio-gd R2R-11 and now my schiit stack has finally powered down for a few days... think it's going to my wall of retirement soon.
Note that there are discussions about schiit being full of noise, distortion, etc... i don't hear it, just sharper than I'd like, but matches well with the darker 6xx tones.
Note that my littledot mk2 (with voskhod tubes) is a beautiful match with the 6xx. People say the darkvoice is even better, but I think the upgrade step is too shallow for me to make a purchase.
