I am new to the headphone scene and have moondrop IEMs which to me are my start into the high end field of headphones. I came across Audeze LCD-5 which are like 4,500$ I wouldn't mind paying it but I kinda want to work my way up to them and were wondering if any similar or recommended headphones for maybe $1000? They can be open or closed back. I love hardcore techno and rap but mostly techno. Also if it isn't too much if you also have a recommendation for a AMP/DAC that can pair up with the headphones you suggest let me know!

if you want to work your way up, the 6xx is where most start. and the thing most will keep forever. depending on ur source u will likely not need a dac. any solid state amp will work if it measures well and has enough power. I hear the magni has plenty of power.
