No, they won't replace the HD-6xx's. But they are very nice, especially for 20+ y.o. headphones.
They have the Mario Bellini sig, and I do like the styling. Very lightweight Orthodynamics
that you can listen for extended periods. Usually I don't care for supra-aural's and prefer
circum's , but being so light that you don't notice.
I have them running off the Technics "new class A" integrated amp fed thru the laptop's optical
output to a 24/192 dac. In the early hours, I'm up before "the old bear" and therefore cannot run
the 120Ti's.
Anyway, if you get a chance to try some of these, they are quite good.

The Mario Bellini headset design, revolutionary for its day, really was as comfortable as it looked, which explains why so many headsets have used a similar arch-and-strap design in the decades since. The magnets could have been twice as big and heavy (one can only imagine the bass output) and the phones would still have felt good. It's difficult today to imagine how much more comfortable the HP-1 was than the massive, head-clamping competition.
