Frequently Asked Questions

The HD 650s have a slightly warmer and more intimate sound than the HD 600s, with a bit more bass presence, though both require a good amplifier.
They're excellent for critical listening and monitoring, but some engineers might prefer a flatter response for mixing – it's a matter of personal preference.
Given the 300-ohm impedance, a dedicated headphone amplifier is highly recommended to provide sufficient power and avoid a thin or lifeless sound.
