HD-681 Evo WH : Bang for bucks

Bought this because the cable on my 668b was breaking (the short cable between the male jack and the headphone), maybe not the best idea to get another set of headphones with the same problem but I liked the sound and wanted to get something with a different sound signature but still similar, I think I made the right choice, I believed this was going to be too muffled on the highs compared to the 668b but that's not the case, the highs are mellower but not by that much, I think the bigger difference is actually on the lower mids that pump more on the 681 evo, overall I like it better for listening to music, though both are awesome for the price.

The velour pads are a bit disappointing, they are not as soft as the aftermarket pads I got for the 668b, but they are compatible so used them on the 681.

I've got also a 662f, however I think that one is more fitting for critical listening, the highs are quite fatiguing so it's not in the same league as the 681 evo and 668b if you want to listen to music
