I would agree its probably your hearing as you are getting the same results with various sources.
I feel i may have a similar effect from my hearing, tho maybe to a lesser extent
It would also make sense that the PMC 23 would be the worse offender as they appeared quite forward in the highs, at least when i auditioned them. In fact when i auditioned them with a Naim system (which i feel is also quite forward and excitable) i was getting a continuous ringing where the high frequencies seemed to merge together. The only time i managed to tame this is to switch the music down to something like Bob Marley.
Out of curiosity what was your experience with the Sennheiser HD800? they are known for edging on the bright side
