For example, is the bright dt880/990, akg k701 or hd800 more detailed than darker more laidback headphones like lcd-2 or hd650? Or do they just push details more upfront?

So bright headphones isnt more detailed, they just push things more forward which is also means more fatigue. In other other, its redundant to buy a bright headphone unless you are an engineer?
My 15 year old car I feel has just as much clarity in the treble as my dt990, but it deosnt sound as bright or artifical if you know what I mean. The car speakers sound just as detailed, but they doesnt hurt my ears. Its quite strange. Why artificially boost the treble so much if it doesnt add anything to the treble detail?
So you mean like the hd800 and dt990, they are both bright.
I find it amusing that people are saying the dt990 is "v-shaped" and tinny sounding, while Imo the hd800 is the same but because they cost 1500 dollars they are "detailed" and "amazing" and not bright?
I tried them and compared during a meet. 320 mp3's, schiit lyr. I found the hd800 to be the refined dt990, like the T1 sounded like a refined dt880.
