Just got my NT6, and now I'm curious how much that extra treble would help as I don't think it's that bright. My V3 are more forward than it, especially the bass, which isn't very controlled. As for X5, it's laid back. I'm perplexed why you would think the X5 would be forward. I would say DX90 is forward and warm as it has more bass or aire, and the treble is forward. With the NT6, the DX90 is more appreciable as it tightens the sound. I don't mind the DX90 with the NT6, but with the V3 I mind a bit since the V3 is forward in the bass department and DX90 does push the bass a bit compared to the X5. I feel since X5 is laid back, it sounds clearer with the NT6, whereas the DX90 with it's forward treble, the highend is more pronounced and more noticible.
