Yeah, the MDRV6 with Beyerdynamic Velour earcushions are my secret sauce for getting in the zone. The stock pleather earpads will give you "hot ears" that make long shifts uncomfortable.
If you keep going down the audiophile rabbit hole like I did, next up is a DAC or a tube amp. A good starter cheap one (sub $100) is the Qinpu:

I have them also, you might want to look to get some replacement ear pads

I have the twin headphone Sony-MDRV6. They are awesome, but suffer from the same earpad issue. I've had them for 10 years now (yikes).
The earpads will go and start flaking (for me after 5 years). They are easy to replace though.

Yes, the ear pads are a big improvement on the V6s/7506s for sure.
