Noob upgrade question, I am currently running Sennheiser 650’s, with a Feliks Audio Elise Tube amp, and a Schiit Modi 1 DAC off my MacBook Pro. I enjoy rolling tubes but lately I’ve been thinking of cheating on my Feliks and buying another tube amp. But that’s quite an investment. So is there something else I can add to my setup to improve it? What would be the next step up DAC and Headphones that my amp can drive? TIA

A logical upgrade from the HD650 is the Focal Clear, with tighter bass, more coherent mids, much sparklier highs, and a more transparent background:

However, if are still happy with your HD650 and just want more details across the entire sound spectrum with a larger soundstage for medium-to-large jazz ensembles or classical orchestras, etc., then check out the Drop HD8XX:
