100% Agree with your conclusions. I have the HD3's and the S8 sub which is ideal for my PC set up. Any more powerful (and expensive) would be rather pointless 99% of the time. If I was trying to fill an entire studio or room with sound I'd look at the HD6's and the S8 for sure as the 3's just won't cut it being under powered. If I was to do again I'd look at the slightly larger HD4's perhaps for my particular use case (although they don't com in WHITE, I mean wtf). Other VERY important factor for me was a front facing headphone jack which the HD6's just don't have (front or back) this clearly shows they are designed for stand use rather than table top like the HD3'+4's. Bit of a big omission on AE's part imho and would make them useless for me as they work very well with having an on board DAC to use with my Hifiman Sundara's cans for music and gaming. I mean what would it have cost to have integrated a similar headphone out on that lovely front panel (or even on the rear at a push). AE you dumb a**es you've lost a sale I would have loved to have gone all out for these to blow my socks off at my desk. ☹ Someone else can have my hard earned money then....
Your compression and your editing is top notch very enjoying your video to the last sec. I appreciate your time taken to put this out. May i know whats your desk size and your monitor size? Cant decide between the HD4 or the HD6 ?
Hello, Thank you for your appreciation. my desk is I think around 120x60 if you dont' include the part where it meets the L shaped long table on the side. My Monitor is 27" The HD3 is already perfect for the size of my setup as well as my room, the HD6 is a bit overkill but won't hurt to have.
I have the HD3s and just ordered the HD6s, but your vid has me doubting my decision. The HD6s sound muddier. Yes, it could be your testing setup ... but damn.

If anyone wants to make HD3 sounds warmer and more beautiful when relaxing, just buy Mojo 2 DAC.
Almost like 100% be a different speakers
Good Evening Kuya Marvin 🧡
kuya techbroll what's the white led screen clock?

make a review of Gigabyte g24f 2
Nice vid. Can you compare it to the HD4?
@techbroll how do you like the HD6 four months later? And how are you connecting them to your music source without a USB like the HD three
Ang ganda naman ng set up ng video mo ngayon Kuya Marvin ganda ng lighting mo ngayon po

Any other recommendations? I’m eyeing the HD6 but isn’t it outdated?
No these are revamped
Thank you sa great comparison!
Thank you for the appreciation!
Good Companion well detailed
Thank you John!
I have the HD3s and just ordered the HD6s, but your vid has me doubting my decision. The HD6s sound muddier.

So much muddier right!
HD3s are crispy in comparison.
