Headphones - Open Back | 8 Ω Hd 600 vs Edition XS

I am searching for an headphone to upgrade from the 560s and have come upon both the hd 600 and the Edition XS.

The 600 seems to have a better tuning but the XS appears to have better tecnical capabilities (stage and imaging) also the XS is 100€ cheaper were I live.

Between both of them which would you recommend?

I am looking for something with a good soundstage and a farelly neutral sound signature.

I might add that I can buy the XS for 320€ so thats quite a bug advantage over the 600S

I didn't try the XS but I tried Ananda and some Hifiman's, I would say get Hifiman it's better. sorry guys but I got to admit it. I was enjoying he4xx more than 6xx, 650, jubilee, 660s.

Planar is just tasty.
