I have both the 600 and 650
running through a Musical fidelity x -cans tube amp
The 650 have slightly better bass punch but they lose the midrange magic of the 600
I can here so much more midrange detail with the 600.
The 600 pulls the sound of the mid back a bit to get more bass but I find the 600 draws you into the music better then the 650.
You think the 650 sounds better then the 600 at first but the trick of getting out of the way and just enjoying the music is better with the 600
IMHO
IN fact I also have the AKG 701 and I still go back to the 600 !
