Owns both the HD 560S and HD 599 SE. Finds the 560S leaner, more neutral and clearer, easier to follow busy tracks, and would pick it for its clarity and balance, though the 599 is better built and more comfortable.
“while the HD 560S sounds leaner and more neutral. The 560S also sounds clearer to me, especially with busy tracks, where I find it easier to pick out individual instruments.”
