I don't own the Ghost, but I highly recommend at least further looking into them. They are compared with the Meze 109 Pro, an 800$ headphone. Of course, they are not as good as them, but for their price, they come close.
They have, for example, broken this guy:

I highly, HIGHLY recommend checking out Fog City Audio's shop for this. They have cables for a ton of different headphone brands that can be customized by length, end connection, and even a bunch of color patterns. I recently ordered a 4.4mm balanced cable from them for my Arya Stealths, and it's just wonderful. They're braided too, so quite flexible with pretty much no fuss compared to some stock cables.

Brand new pads are always going to sound different from worn pads; this has been measured and validated:
-
New pads = https://www.dropbox.com/s/sqb4mgfgq86idwc/Beyerdynamic%20DT990%20%28fresh%20earpads%29.pdf?dl=0
-
Old pads = https://www.dropbox.com/s/afcv3lfncnl9mwk/Beyerdynamic%20DT990%20%28worn%20earpads%29.pdf?dl=0
I'm sure some "silent" manufacturing revisions have occurred over the years as well, but the quickest validation you can do for yourself is to swap your old pads onto the new headphones. Assuming it sounds largely the same, then it's just a matter of allowing the new pads to break in naturally over time.

I tested a bunch and ended up with HD800s. For gaming and music. It feels comfortable for long sessions.

I have used this cable for nearly 2 years with my Sundaras. They are soft, tangle free and have a good fit. They use 2x 3.5mm to the cans and terminate in a 4.4mm plug for your source. Picture of the cable.

No, but they were on my short list of headphones to purchase when I wanted to upgrade. I ended up bumping my budget quite a bit for a used pair of HD8XX, but at the ~$200 mark I was planning on getting the DT900 Pro X.

Reply to comment by iWazzmatazz in FINALLY AptX is now free to use by BernabethWarners
There's a dell Bluetooth audio driver that unlocked aptX on windows 8 and above. There's also an experimental LDAC driver made by the same people who developed Bluetooth tweaker. You'll need to manually delete ACVRP driver in device manager to get remote control to work, though

Op this is WRONG.
The termination on the K7 is 4.4 balanced, not 2.5

Those are for the terminations that plug into the headphones. You need a 3.5mm for the Sundara, and then select a 2.5mm TRRS as the single end termination for balanced.
