It's a pretty subjective thing to say "overly bright". Can you list off other headphones you have owned/listened to and if you found them to be too bright.
I think the T1s are still what I would consider to be a "bright headphone", but I agree less bright than the HD800. I actually really don't like the HD800 because I think it sounds too much like the old Sony SA5000 which are super clear and detailed, but at the cost of really draining out the bass.
Well as long as it doesn't sound overly bright I'm good. I care a lot about sound stage and clarity when listening to instrumentals. The HD800 is supposed to have the best sound stage of all dynamics but the bass was almost non-existent and the treble gave me headaches when I tried them. That's why I look at the T1 since I heard they are less bright and not as amp dependent.
