actually color temperature does change the performance somewhat. the higher the color temperature, the less the usable lights. so theoretically 6000k gives out less light than 5500k
and moreover, different brand can have different results too. high quality bulbs (philips, osram, etc...) they have more consistency and better light output. i have seen some cheap quality "6000k" bulbs and they are nothing close to my previous philips 6000k
I had just received the Philips Ultinon 6000K D4S bulb from Japan thanks to Dave. I am going to install it and see how it looks this afternoon and might have a few pictures up for you guys. This might be it guys........
Take care

Hey KY.. How does these Philips 6000k compare to your previous PIAA 5500k in color wise? I got the same philips bulbs 6 months ago and been using them. They are very bright and illuminates the whole road , but still think they are a bit yellowish for my taste.

I think compare with the PIAA 5500K they are a bit bluer in output but you do loose a little bit of the visibility. But it is still better then a lot of the 6000K bulbs that I have had in the past. overall a very good bulb.
Haha......But they are real quality bulbs tho Kev.

I will have to agree with KY on this one. I have them and they are superb in quality comparing from all the different bulbs i've tried. These are super bright, lights up the whole road like OEM bulbs, the light output is crystal white, NO BLUE or PURPLE effect.

holiday is around the corner, this is too rich of a bulb for my blood
very surprised ebay doesn't have any for sale... why are they not mass producing this..
Kev:
I dont think you wont find them on ebay, b/c these bulbs are not permitted for sale on the USA. On the base of the bulbs its has a stamp saying "europe and asia use only"
