Call me crazy, but I went ahead and got both the 6XXs and the 58Xs and I can say is, that if you have the money for the 58X, but not the 6XX, buy the 58X and you won’t be disappointe. If you have the money for the 6XXs, buy them, after all over 54,000 of the 6XXs have been bought and actually the58Xs have sold over 12,000 units and the Sennheiser gaming headphones have sold over 15,000 pairs. To me this marriage has been good for Massdrop and Sennheiser!

NateBI did the same and while I’m happy to have both (they each serve a different and distinct purpose with my gear), I could easily live with just one and it would be the 58X. I find it more versatile than the 6XX—better for movies and some rock/blues/jazz (more “fun”), though not quite as good for critical music listening. No regrets for getting both, but would recommend the 58X if only one is within reach.

OvationI got a third party balanced cable from Periapt for my HD-600s I should try the cable on the 6XXs and the 58Xs see what i find out, since I’ve only listen to the latter 2 headphones on my DarkVoice 336 SE and not my Aune S7 and my S.M.S.L. SU-8.

NateBI bought both too, they are different enough to own both.

ClosDeLaRocheMore than a year later, I have sold the 58X, and I found another cable to use on my HD 600s and my HD 6XX.
