I'm sure this topic could potentially be offensive to true audiophiles, but as the headline states... I want my first pair of headphones to be all I need. For month's now I've become obsessed with closely following this community, and have spent dozens of hours watching every review possible of all the high-end headphones favored by this Sub.. What I have narrowed it down to, essentially, is the HE1000SE, Focal Clear MG, Arya Stealth Magnet.. If I purchase one of these, will I ever be truly satisfied with just the one pair? Or will I long for an experience that other pair's of headphones have to offer?

HE1000 v3 is my end game but I’m not sure I would appreciate them without the journey through gaming headsets, HD650, Elegia, and LCD-X (which is now my end gaming headphones). Hopefully you have access to a retailer that will let you demo so you find something that suits your taste. We have definitely heard from first time purchasers that take a big swing and wonder why they prefer their Beats to a $3k set.
