I’m sure a lot of us are wondering the same thing. I have not heard or read any first hand experience on this matter. In due time I’m sure someone will make the comparison. Until then, I will continue enjoying my 601s but never say never

Not a comparison but rather a review by a member here who bought a pair and gave his thoughts.: https://www.audioaficionado.org/show...ighlight=mc611

I listened to the 601s and 611s side by side with the c1100 as preamp and D1100 as a Dac. We played the same songs and no one could hear any difference. I have a pair of 601s and they'll be the last amps I'll ever buy for the Great Room system. Love them. DACs are always evolving so that's something I keep an eye on.
