Meze 105 aer. Great headphones. Super comfortable. Sound is like a 560s with slightly more bass. They're just superb.  And they are easily serviceable if needed

Secret option #3. Meze 105 AER.

Why not? To my hears it has smoother high end, warmer sound overall, nicer low end, and is levels above in comfort. Build quality also worth mentioning, although the Senn are absolutely well built also.

You could go for a Meze headphone and add their boom mic accessory (https://mezeaudio.com/products/boom-mic) Depending on your budget you could go for a 99 Neo https://mezeaudio.com/products/99-neo for $199 99 classic walnut for $309 https://mezeaudio.com/products/meze-99-classics-walnut-silver-wood-headphones Or the open back 105 AER for $399 https://mezeaudio.com/products/105-aer In my opinion they sound really good for the price, and they look really good, at least to me. All locally crafted in Romania so you're directly supporting the European economy. The one caveat being that they're not wireless. Edit : and I think they'd look dope in meetings, no flashy lights, and the walnut is really classy if you're going for that one. No gamer design here

If you're on a budget or want to buy second-hand: I liked the Meze 105 AER. With a bit of EQ I could be happy with it (for rock/techno). Others are better at classical music.

A lot of good recs here. But as you came from a bassy headphone, maybe you prefer that, so I will say add Meze 105 AER to your shortlist, demo it if you can. I prefer a bassy sound and they suprised me when I tried them. So much so I may get a pair. But one to check either way.

Personally the HD600s doesn't sound great to me either. I am not sure about the hype, but the Meze AER 105 are fantastic in a similar price range.
