BigJohn: I recently moved up from Sennheiser HD580 (which I used for years) to Sennheiser HD595, which definitely are brighter sounding, but they still don't entirely (or even merely satisfactorily) solve my problem. I am a classical music listener, and I have found (paradoxically to both my dismay and pleasure) that ripping my older classic mono cd recordings currently provides me more rewarding listening (obviously due to the more restricted frequency range of those earlier recordings).
