I understand your excitement for your upcoming headphones, but before speaking C so demonstrably with such assumed authority next time, limit such passionate comments to headphones you have heard in person, over a wide variety of genres and volumes

The Xs will be a very significant upgrade over your M50x, which while decent in the midrange and lower treble, has badly bloated muddy bass

I just referred to reviews and peoples overall opinion on these. Point is they are more recommended than other headphones on 500 dollar class. Rarely bad word about them and they are compared to 2-3 times expensive headphones. Maybe if you have thousands to spend Hifiman is not the best choice but at that price point they seem best you can buy.

They are clear upgrade from hd 600 series OP was wanting to upgrade from. K712 does not seem as good upgrade and K812 is crazy expensive, just like hd800. Hifiman XS seems good middle ground
