What about the differences between 3580 and 3680?

I think i may have received these today, they look the exact same except mine have a mic and the housings are white with black tips. Anyway these are seriously confusing me... They sound pretty damn good. Bass extends very low when called upon, when not called upon they sound bright and balanced. They have had no burn in at all, straight out of the box. Vocals are bright and sparkly without sibilance, midrange however is clear and well im hearing detail i havent heard through many many many headphones ive heard over the last few years.
As i said mine may be a totally different model but still fantastic... They have already retired my Xears TD4, Dunu Tridents and TFTA XB's. Without any burn in!

Here's all anyone can wish for regarding comparison between the three models--frequency response graphs
SHE3580 (red) vs CKM50 (black)
SHE3580 (red) vs SHH3580 (black)
I generated these frequency response plots by my two-EQs in series process: one EQ to compensate for my hearing's equal loudness curve and another EQ to make all tones sound as loud while playing with Sinegen. The plots are the inverse of my final EQ settings--I EQ to try to make all phones have the sound signature and pretty much succeed.
So you can see the three phones all have a V-shaped FR to my ears, but CKM50>SHE3580>SHH3580 in V-shape. Also the SHH3580 has significantly less bass, especially subbass. But if I had to listen to music without EQ, I'd choose the SHH3580 out of the three phones. With EQ I think SHE3580>SHH3580>CKM50, because (1) the SHE3580 has more bass reserves than the SHH3580, (2) the CKM50 is less comfortable on my ears than the others.
