You're probably aware already, but if not, you could request through their custom shop to get the split part higher up.

pre 2017 / till mid ish 2017 .... then sennheiser changed the design to black. So about 17-20 years of this colour design.

I agree. Bought one 600 a week ago. Not the best sound but a great standard and the looks are so timeless to me.

Same here, right now running the Elites with a cheaper ef400 setup and it really is just getting better and better as both break in! I auditioned many of the same as well.

I go back and forth between them every few days, and every time I switch, I go "yup this is my favorite." Probably the 660S by a hair though. If I could only have one it'd be it because it's more of a catch-all for my music preferences.
The DT 1990 is more aggressive and punchy (in a good way), the staging is more open and wider by bit (660s is decently wide but I perceive it more around my head than infront of me, both are cool with me), it's also clinically analytical where the 660 is warm and dark. I feel like the 660 gives music it's own presentation, while the 1990 just shows you it as is.

I see Hart cables. Loved them at first on my Sundara but had to swap them out because the thingy where the left and right cables meet is placed too low down, and it would catch on the edge of my desk when I lean forward to prop myself back up after slouching in my chair. Then it would rip one or both sides of the cable off from the Sundara.
After 4-5 times I couldn't stand it anymore. But it attests to how well built those things are. If I ever set up a dedicated listening couch I'm going back to those cables.
Both of my Sundara pads started peeling off this month at the underside and the left pad seam also opened up, showing the green foam inside. Bought it in Jan 2021 so the pads lasted 2 years. Although I swap out my headphones every couple of months, so I'd estimate actual use at around 1 year or so. It seems like 1-1.5 years is how long these pads generally last before they start tearing and peeling.
Currently using the Dekoni Elite Sheepskin for HiFiMan HE Series, makes the sound quite a bit warmer (hopefully I'm using the right terminology), which is fine really since I tend to reach for the TrueBass button on my ZEN DAC when I'm on my Sundara. I get no urge to go for the bass boost with these Dekoni pads.

I love how everyone has a pair of 660S. I thought they were just some ordinary expensive headphones until I bought them and realized that everyone has them as well 😂

I had a friend come over who thinks the airpod max is the very best of sound quality. Made him listen to my focal clears. He tried to max out the volume straight away so it would start clipping and I've never felt such fear in my life

Correct, just brotherly tomfoolery and a little bit of embellishment.

Having brothers myself, I've been on both sides of this kind of tomfoolery. Just childishly avoiding/disliking things either of us like just to spite each other
