If the OP is missing the warmness of Sennheisers.....the 595 is a great alternative!!! It has the bass extension of the HD600, but is angled towards your ears.....so it's more upfront and has a more distinct brightness from the 600s. Since I'm coming from Sennheiser, I find I like the 595s for all my general rock as well as symphonies. My 600s, I like for jazz, electronica, ambience, and chamber music. Still, I think the in your face nature of Grados might be good for really heavy rock/ metal genres. Since begining Grados are lacking IMHO (rolled off bass, some muddy mids, but clear treble), it seems like the 225 or 325 are the Grados that start to have a clear distinction from Sennheisers.
