Give them some time. The purchase will be useless if you just sell them before giving them a chance. Even if you wind up selling them, you should get to know them better first.
If you like the general sound of the HD650, but want less bass and more treble and more "clarity", you should definitely try the HD600. Since you like the ath-M50, it seems you like a balanced sound signature, which is pretty rare in headphones, so I think trying the HD600 would be a good bet.
But if you want a brighter sound than the M50, then you have lots of options. Like a Beyer DT880 or an AKG or a Dennon.
I'm mystified as to why the HD650 doesn't sound more open than the M50. Listen to the 650 for a while, and I bet you'll start seeing how the M50 sounds closed in. But the M50 is very open and spacious for a closed can.
