This might simply be a result of what you're used to. My dad had a nice Stax system for 10 years or so, and that was my gold standard for years. When I first bought headphones (mostly for listening with computer-based sources) I found every can I used disappointing. As I upgraded sources and moved up the ladder in headphone quality, I finally found a headphone I could live with in the LCD-2's. A couple of weeks ago I was visiting my dad and listened to his system. Not sure which Stax model these are, maybe 007? Anyway, I was once again thrilled with the presentation from his system and spent many hours enjoying it. Coming home to the LCD-2's I felt somewhat the way you do, based on your descriptions.
But after listening to them again for a couple of weeks, I've re-adjusted, and I'm quite happy with them again.
Are you by any chance a Stax guy?
