Well, you said upper and higher, not lower and higher
Let's go step by step.
First thing, buy all possible HM5 versions (flat leatherette, flat velour, angled leatherette, angled velour, and flat hybrid) and see what happens. You should be able to find them in Amazon. If not, you find them in Mp4Nation.
Then, whatever you will want to EQ, you should change your way of EQing, because that is all very wrong what you are doing.
Then, well, if even with HM5 and even with a better EQ and a correct way to use it you still don't like the WS99BT, maybe it's just not meant to be.
Sometimes people are more sensitive to one or another frequency, or give importance to this or that aspect of the sound, and what is wonderful for one person is not for the other.
I have tested in the last 2 months almost 120 Bluetooth Headphones. Basically all the existing ones apart for the very cheap irrelevant ones.
I have not found many HP which can get close to the level of transparency and detail of the WS99BT. 5 or so... And they all are not perfect. One feels more detailed in something, and less in something else.
I personally had always the very opposite impression of you. One of the things I have always loved the most on the WS99BT is the detail and presence in the mids, especially in the female vocals.
I remember very well when I have compared the WS99BT with AKG K845BT and Momentum M2AEBT for @ruthieandjohn, and I used the songs he gave me, to tell him which one sounded better with those songs.
I remember that each time I was listening to Spanish Harlem of Rebecca Pidgeon with the WS99BT I was thinking "holy $h!t this is just amazing".
Maybe you are used to even better (wired) HP.
In that case I suppose you will have to go for trial and error because I think we describe the sound with different terms and I do not know what I should suggest you, because I just can't agree with your description of how the WS99BT sound. And I can't suggest you anything different till I do not understand what you can like.
But, as said, you should try them with the HM5 first.
And change way of EQing.
