Reply to comment by BOER777 in Sennheiser 6XX's don't come with the fancy hardshell box anymore? by DNewWin

They sound really really good but I think the 660s is easier to drive and has better imaging for sure. The 6XX has 3 modes, left, right and center.

How would you describe the difference 660 vs 6xx sound wise?

They sound 90% the same. 660s is technically better, but both of their tones are very similar. I’d say the 6XX is better sounding tone wise, but the 660s does everything else better.

Is it true that 660s has more “veil” than 6xx?

No. I hear no veil in either to be honest

Thanks. Because that’s what always bothered me in other reviews.

I think I read that they’ve changed them over the years. The old 650s had a much darker sound.
