Hi! Just wondering what’s the general consensus on Marble vs. Updated design versions of Sennheiser HD 600?

I’m asking this because I noticed that a lot of people prefer Marble one over the new revision.

Is there any audible difference in the sound? Did anyone measure both headphones with the new set of pads on the same measurement rig?

    I have the updated one. I think the old marble looks better, and I prefer the branding on top instead of the side.

      I also like it better in the middle!

      A long time ago when I was trying HD600 vs HD650 out I ended up with a slight preference for the HD650 sound.

      So, I have what imo is best of both worlds. Non-marble look with sennheiser in the middle.

      (I was never a fan of the marble look)
