Apologies for the length of this post - unfortunately I've always been incapable of being concise - and thanks for any advice...
I'm hoping to establish how the upper frequencies of LCD-2.2 and Fazor compare to my two current reference points, Sennheiser HD580s and Beyer T1s. As background, I'm looking for a single pair of headphones to complement my (currently hypothetical) speaker setup, which won't be able to fill a critical niche in my listening - mostly 80s/90s/00s indie rock/post-punk, with some electronic thrown in - as I find these demand to be played at volumes that aren't entirely appropriate for my listening environment.
Although I probably prefer the T1s (despite their flaws) as an all-rounder, the HD580s are more often than not decisively better-suited to that kind of material, where elevated bass is usually desirable given the general characteristics of those genres and the ubiquity of bass-thin/treble-hot recordings. And from owning LCD-2.1s in the past, I know their low-frequency extension and performance easily surpasses that of the 580s, which is why I'm looking to go back to them.
However, as a not-entirely-recovered former detail addict, I tend to find with all but the most searingly bright recordings on the 580s that I crave a little more bite with the guitars, crack with the snares etc. I'm abnormally tolerant of treble harshness, so in an ideal world I'd take quite a bit extra on top, but I appreciate it's a zero-sum game where I can't gain anything without something else (bass/mids) being taken away, so I think I'm only looking to move fractionally closer to neutral.
I know the 2.1s take things slightly in the other direction from HD580/600, but would I be right in thinking that the 2Fs have enough added treble presence to edge past the Senns while still remaining some way off the Beyers? And if not, is there anywhere else I should be looking? I'd like to consider LCD-3 but my budget and European location make that unrealistic, so if neither 2.2 nor 2F is suited I'll probably have to consider other brands.
