All your problems with the sound quality(music enjoyment, soundstage) of the HD560S simply boil down to them having less treble than the Cloud II. Use them exclusively for at least a week and then form an opinion. Your mind already has an idea of what the music SHOULD sound like and needs time to adjust, we call it “brain burn-in”.
I own both the Cloud II and HD560S btw. If I switch to the clouds from any of my other headphones they sound like pure earrape, even though I used them for 8 years previously. It’s all to do with what you’re used to at the time.
