I recently got this headset, and wow is it good. My only issue is when certain people talk on discord, I can hear a really high pitched ringing. I fiddled with a bunch of settings, computer audio and discord, and nothing seems to solve the issue. It is primarily if not all in my right ear only. Is there something wrong with my headset, or was that ringing always there I can just hear it cause the headset is THAT good? I haven't had any issues with any other application, though I have yet to test if I can hear the ringing on a different version of discord, say on my xbox instead of my pc. Only other issue I've had is occasional static, but I can't tell if it's from the headset or the show/game/etc.

Deutsche Grammophon famously used Sennheiser HD-600s for mixing orchestral music for years, and I personally think they sound gorgeous and work well for recording despite being a tad relaxed, so they might be another option for you -- esp. when they go on sale before and during Black Friday.
Of course, none of those headphones look as beautiful as the TH-00s, but it appears that sound is the most important thing to you. That said, the MDR-V6 / MDR-7506 has been the most ubiquitous headphone in the studio world for nearly thirty years. I used to see AKG 501s and, occasionally in small studios, Grados, but never as often as the Sony model you own already.
Occasionally, I visit the Brooklyn studio of a producer I partnered with for decades and along with his Telefunken mic pres from Abbey Road (yes, the ones that were used on the most lavishly produced Beatle albums), classic Neve and ProTools setup, he uses your headphones in the control room. They're that reliable.
