Hello,

I need a new headphone to replace my Audeze Mobius that they broke a few days ago.
The other headphones that I've owned were sennheiser Pc360/350, AKG 712 Pro and B&W P7.

My top priority is music and occasionally watch a movie or tv show and last is gaming mostly single player campaigns.

One caveat I am also inclined to buy a DAC because I need to connect to my MacBook and as bonus additional
inputs to be able to connect to my Smart TV trough S/PIDF are welcome.

From what I've seen I am most inclined to buy the Hifiman Arya Organic when they begin to ship them to Europe and for the DAC I am looking this one Topping D90se or save some money and change the headphones for a Sennheiser HD600/650 maybe?

Preference Wise regarding sound I listen most genres of music less hip-hop and classical, I like soundstage and separation of instruments while being able to pinpoint the direction where the sound is coming.

My initial pick where the focal clear mg but after reading some reviews a problem was referenced a lot which was they were fatiguing after a while.

After reading this review https://www.reddit.com/r/headphones/comments/145v41w/hifiman_arya_organic_review/
and what Hifiman claims this headphone to be my initial thought seems good.

What you guys think, would you change anything and why?

Best Regards.

Considering what you have owned and what you still want right now and provided that shipping and other fees are not too much, check out the Drop x DCA Ether CX and this SMSL DAC/amp stack with cables that will connect this stack together in balanced mode:
