If you don't use EQ I'd recommend trying that first.
If you're looking for better timbre won't beat the HD600's for natural sounding timbre. If you're looking for soundstage/headstage you won't find better than H800(S) as an upgrade.

yeah the hd800s is a bit out of my price range sadly. what im looking for mostly is the soundstage, bass, and trebble i assume. tho i would love to hear the headphones first before deciding. but nothing is closeby

I've never actually tried any hifi man headphones so take this with as many grains of salt as required but I've heard that the egg shaped models like Edition XS or the Arya are more similar than they are different. Also that the build quality is spotty so out of the two could go for XS as it's priced better and eq to taste. Plus the XS has better extended bass and more treble than the HD600s which seems like a good fit to your needs, but I'd recommend buying from somewhere with a good return policy to be safe.
