Guessing that "sharpness" you hear is probably the upper mids. I find it to be a bit shouty/obnoxious and fatiguing.

I also thought that the HD6x0 series can sound a little boring, but certain source gear does seem to add a lot of life.

Did you mention what you were using to drive those headphones?

You'll probably get different advice but IME the HD600s are fairly hard to drive and benefits from a more powerful source. s

Could try some different amps but frankly, you might be better off trying different headphones.
