Title kind of explains it. My HD6XX sound incredible but the sound goes all over when I really turn it up. What does the community recommend for this situation? I'm driving them with a modi/magni stack if that helps. Thanks y'all.

Grab a decent closed back or an IEM that you can afford, and then use autoEQ to EQ it to the overall tuning of the HD6XX. It won't be a 6XX replacement, but I do this exact thing when I want to listen to my K702 but want the isolation of a closed back - I use autoEQ to EQ my CAL! or HD25 -> the tuning of the K702, and listen with one of those. It's obviously not quite the same experience but it's close enough to be great for those times when open back just isn't possible.
