I tried to do as much research before posting as I could. I will if I may go into a brief history to put things into perspective.
I have always loved music and gaming as they are my two hobbies now. About a year ago I decided that I was sick and tired of gamer headsets and bought a pair of 598sr's after reading reviews and asking around. When I first tried them on they were amazing. I loved the sound stage and how you can hear the space and distance between instruments. I listen to all genres and for me they seem to do well with 80's pop, 70's rock and some new rap and death metal. After about six months of adjusting I noticed that they sounded muddy or flat. The bass was soft and not detailed though I am not a bass enthusiast. It really started to bug me and was keeping me from enjoying them. So I decided that I would keep them and get another pair. I tried on a pair of old crappy gamer head sets and noticed I am missing some treble. I also currently have a fiio k3. So what I am looking at.
DT 1990- Looks like more treble and better definition I hope is the word in the bass.
Beyerdynamic T1- Looks like a step up form the DT 1990and a good all around headphone for all types of music and gaming.
Audeze LCD-2 - Looks expensive buy has a warmer sound and not as neutral as the other two.
Sennheiser - 600 or 660 - I see these all over the place on the forums however I am a little worried about the flat nature of my last pair.
DAC/AMP
A JDS Atom and a Khadas Tone board. This was the combo suggested in another thread.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
