"rolled off" is a really misused term. I bet none of the new headphones commonly discussed here actually have rolled off treble.
The argument with the LCD-2 is just that roll off is the wrong term because it means a lack of extension into the upper treble, and the LCD-2 extends to like 50khz or something ridiculous. The term to use is "recessed" if you think the LCD-2 lacks treble. The K240 Sextett on the other hand, seems to be rolled off.
I personally think rolling off either end of the spectrum is a much smaller offense compared to what modern headphones seem to have to sacrifice to get that extension. Rolloff often seems to make it easier to get the more important midrange right. But I guess that doesn't always happen...
