I recently upgraded my DT990 pro to Sony MDR-MV1.
Still using Blaster G6 as dac/amp.
I live in a country with very limited choices of dac and amp everything has to be bought via online but for many reasons that is out of equation.
We do have a local store which has some Topping products .
I am looking to upgrade my listening experience and i have 500-650 euro to spent.
I am not sure if is possible but looking something more on warm side I think MDR-MV1 on it own is analytical enough.
If you were me what would the choice be (site is in Albanian (Konvertues=DAC) ):

Topping DX5 will be perfect. DX3 if you can't get the 5. Fiio K9 if you can afford it is good.

so no DAC only DX5 ?

I have two DX5's and they're well worth it. All in one solution and plenty of power.

The DX5 is a DAC and an amp

Fiio K7?

does it make the sound warmer if that makes sense?

I truly appreciate all of the invaluable advice you've given me. It has made a significant impact on my decision-making process. Thank you!

What was the final choice and what Dac Amp was purchased, what made the decision?

Fiio K5 dac/amp is all you need. DX5 is a good choice as well.
