I purchased the 660s a few years back. To my ears there simply wasn’t enough difference between them and the 58X to justify their $400 price at the time. I admit to being a 60+ year old 650/6XX fanboy. The 660s extended bass may be a bit more refined than the 58X. Overall I don’t think my aging ears could distinguish between the two in a blind listening test. Everyone’s hearing and sources differ. At today’s price I can and do recommend trying the 660’s. They are very good, easily driven cans. On the other hand if you love your paid for 650’s then relax and enjoy.

1-T-O-MFrankly, 58X is simply a lesser version of 660S
58X is more likely an introduction into 600 series; 660S is a step up without additional gear.
Both are more mobile devices friendly.
58X sounds much better with MTK platform with headphones jack (same volume level as PC38X and audio is much better than Snapdragon platform)
However, if you managed to get 32bit/384kHz USB-C headphones adapter (it's universal), audio is way better.
Be careful don't mix up with 660S2 because it's like 650 (300 ohms) and it's NOT recommended for mobile devices without amplifier
