After-market Replacement cables for the Senns are available and are worth trying. The 650's are a touch crystalline at the top end for me - although that is to some extent the hallmark Senn sound. I'm surprised you don't like the x-can - they normally sound sweet. We used to use Senns (not 650's) all the time in the studio, but switched to AKG's in the end; they were less physically comfortable but less fatiguing on the ears over many hours. I use Stax these days... Personally I think you will need a proper headamp to drive your 650's, but you should try the Touch circuit first. It's not bad, but its not the best IMO.
