Really depends on what you're looking for in a set of cans. Something really different than the 650s? Or along the same lines sound wise? Personally, I'd suggest the 1990 pros from Beyerdynamic. Or, if you prefer more bass, maybe the Fostex TH-610, or one of the Massdrop Fostex offerings. The 610s aren't really bass heavy, but are more subdued treble wise compared to the 1990s. Want to go in a totally different direction, maybe a pair of Grados would suit you. Like I said, it really depends on you and what you're ultimate target is.
I have Schiit vali 2 amp with electro harmonics tube. And I'm happy with it. But I need something with less impedanceHonestly I would just upgrade your amplifier. The HD650 scales so well that if its the sound you like you will struggle to find something as good. A headphone that compliments the HD650, however, might just be the ticket. Have you tried modifying the hd650?

so I can plug it directly to DAP more suitable for mobile use.
No I have not tried modding the HD650. I believe Sennheiser engineers know what they are doing. You know what I'm sayin'?
Keep the HD650s. They are sheer gold, perhaps the most musical and smooth cans out there
I disagree. I did not find the hd650 did not compare to planars. Once I auditioned the Oppo Pm-1 for a week I decided it was time for the hd650 to go and it was time for planars. I enjoy my Lcd2c more than I ever did my hd650.Keep the HD650s. They are sheer gold, perhaps the most musical and smooth cans out there
