First let me say hello! I been trying to decide on a new pair of headphones for a long time and I figured I'd stop by and ask you all for some recommendations.

Currently I have Focal Clears and LCD-2 Fazors. I have a Burson Conductor 3 Reference as my main source. I been wanting to upgrade my setup for a long time. I love the bass on my LCD-2's and the clarity of my Focal Clears. I also have DT-1990 Pros but there just too bright. Basically I'm looking for a Focal Clear and LCD-2 hybrid of sorts. My budget is around $1000. I been considering the HifiMan Arya Stealth and at $600 its a easy purchase. What else should I consider and is this a good choice? I mainly listen to Techno, EDM, and R&B for my music but I also use these for all my movie and cinema needs.

P.S. If you think theres a better amp/DAC for my needs and have compared it to the Burson please let me know!

 
As you are already at a high level with the Focal and Audeze headphones, you might not be happy with cheaper headphones. If I had those two, I would keep them and use whichever works best for the music you want to listen to. If you really want new ones, why not try closed back? If you choose carefully you should be able get the detail and clarity you want, combined with more low-end weight. One I have thought about is the Dan Clark Aeon 2.
