I broke my nice headphones and have been in the market for something for a few weeks. Found this on ebay today, Factory refurbished HD660S for $299 and you can apply the 15% off code (SAVEONCR15) to take $44 off. I live in a state with sales tax so ended up $281 out the door.
These headphones are $500 brand new

Nice try though troll.
I love both, just sayin (and as a hobbyist I've spent about $15k in headphones this year alone, buying/flipping everything under the sun).

6xx really need a dedicated amp, which I don't have. If I'm going for that route, I may want to try those planar.
$99 Atom amp from jds labs gets glowing review. That's where I would start first if I i didn't have any amp. After that when you go higher end, it is more like taste-oriented.
This, or a DT1990 Pro for $150 (no box, no hard case, no replacement pads, no cables) from a friend (but the headset itself is almost unused and like new)?

Sure, the warranty is worse, but the overall experience--detail, presentation, soundstage, comfort. Soo much better, IMHO. Everyone's ears are different, but yeah-- no comparison for me.
