And now I own HD 650. Thanks for enabling me--10 minutes in and I don't think I'll regret this. Very different presentation than LCD 2! Jul 26, 2019

  Main take is that HD 650 feels a little slow. I might not have the language to express this, but here's my try: it excels at "clean" sounds (piano, acoustic guitar, strings) but can't give "dirty" sounds (electric guitar, drums) all of the fullness? weight? harmonics? that I'm used to.
  
  It's very different. Very complimentary. I think I'm really going to enjoy being able listen to either LCD2rev2 or HD 650.

  Tl;dr today I learned what everyone else here already knew. HD 650 is a good headphone.

  You need to try it with a tube amp before you pass judgment on how it behaves with guitars. I'd say the 650+Jot is one of my least favorite combinations I've heard.

Worth it to buy a hd6xx just to be able to follow people's comparisons vs it?

  If you buy used, yes, as it’s an easy resale.

  It's definitely possible to buy much worse reference headphones. Believe it or not I still listen to mine for enjoyment purposes.

  Yup, same! Even when I had Verite, Utopia etc HD650 was always rotated in.
