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...

Vs the rest of the 58x/6xx series is a much closer comparison. They sound closest to the 650s, full, warm, bassy, encompassing. But they emphasise the treble details more, and sparkle a bit more. They also are punchier and less liquid smooth than the 650s. I think I'd probably choose these if I had to keep just a single pair.
If someone stuck these on my head and told me they were HD-650s, I'd probably believe them. If they told me they were 600s, nope.
Listning to the 600 for a couple of hours then switching to these, the bass and thickness is almost overwhelming in the same way it is with the 650.
Listening to either of these and then moving to the 600, the 600 feels like it's missing something.
