The treble improved but still was relatively rolled off compared to my other phones.
I've said this unnumerable times but it's always worth a repeat: most cans are waaaaaaaay too bright. That doesn't mean you shouldn't prefer them, or they're crap or whatever, just that in comparison to live music heard from a typical listening distance they're not realistic. If anyone thinks the 650 is too dull he should take himself off to the nearest live concert, preferably with acoustic not electric instruments, seat himself at a middle distance and see if what he hears more resembles the balance of the 650 or the cans by which he's judging the 650. If he's honest he'll admit that the 650 is the best balanced in terms of realism, which of course doesn't mean he should necessarily choose them for home listening. He may still think they're too dull, but at least he'll know they're realistic.
