I stopped reading after you said the HE-500 and HE-6 have similar tonality...
To a dynamics-only owner, HE4/400/5/5LE/500/6 all have similar tonalities; heck, bundle in all the Audezes too.
To a non-audiophile, most headphones over $200 have similar tonalities.
Sometimes we take being able to tell apart very minute differences for granted, truth is most people don't (maybe because they don't have a solid method of comparison, or have suboptimal listening environments, or simply don't care for small differences).
