I don't have any Beyers, so I can't really make any claim with regards to them, but what I can say is it's possible that you're not used to them, and are probably just super used to how your Logitech headset sounds.

Gaming headsets are generally designed to be a bit boomier, so that sounds like gunfire, explosions, engine noises and the like are put greater emphasis on. They're great for playing games for that reason, because they emphasise what's going on on-screen at any one time. Whilst I primarily use Meze 99 Neos on my PC, even for playing games, it's clear this isn't really what they're designed to be dealing with.

I'm in a similar situation right now, though not quite as bad. Having been a user of KZ ZS10 IEMs for about eight months, the right ear decided to stop sealing properly, so I bought some new IEMs - in particular, the Mee Audio Pinnacle PX IEMs from Drop.

They sound hollow to me; even after being used for a few weeks, I'm still trying to overcome the sense that it sounds a bit empty. There is a lot of detail, and I am picking up sounds in music I didn't notice before in a way that's cool, but it doesn't quite have the oomph (for want of a better way to put it) that I got from the KZs. Really good IEMs, and I'll still gladly use them, but I'm not used to them. Given enough time, I'm sure I'll adjust.
