That was my impression too when I tried them. They sound absolutely lovely, but quite closed. They didn't sit too comfortably on me head, maybe because they are a tad heavier than 404s.

O2s + the T1 was a bit too soft when I tried. 404s seem rather bright. My Golds are very bright too. I have new cables though, so I'll have to give it all another shot to see if the transformation they had on my dynamic rig translates to a Stax rig.
