I have the 58Xs at the office and my 6XXs at home. They're very similar overall.
58X has a touch more bass. 6XX has a slightly wider soundstage and clearer/more forward mids and vocals. 58Xs sound their best on basically any source. The 6XXs demand proper amplification, something like an O2 amp or similar is all that's needed.
When I have them home together I always grab the 6XXs. They just sound "right" to me. I recommend them all day long.
