I’m looking for an upgrade from my Hifiman Ed. XS, should I look at the Arya stealth or organic?

Unlike most people, I actually find the XS quite comfortable. I have a big head and I lucked out and they fit perfectly. With that being said, I’m purely looking for a upgrade in sound and I’ve heard a lot of conflicting opinions on the arya stealth and organic. I’ve seen some say that the stealth is more or less the same headphone with better build quality (which I don’t care about) and that the organics, while better, still don’t justify the nearly 600 dollar price difference. I’m extremely impressed with hifimans sound for the money, I think the soundstage is incredible and the bass is deep and colorful without being punchy or overbearing.

Would either the stealth or the organic really get me a more immersive listening experience, or would I be paying hundreds more for an imperceptible difference in sound?

How would you rank each DL game? Including the following

for me it’s

  1. DL2 (5/10)
  2. The Beast (7.5/10)
  3. DL1 (9/10)
  4. The Following (10/10)

I think the beast is honestly great and a step up from dl2 in all the ways that made the original so great. It kinda feels like a sequel to the following in a lot of ways, less focus on parkour and more on map environment and exploration. I put almost a couple hundred hours on DL2 so I’d say I got my moneys worth, but I honestly don’t ever feel like going back to that game. DL1 is still fun to play even after hundreds of hours. I don’t really have much optimism going forward in the franchise to be honest though.

rpms started dropping completely (down to 1-200) when letting off the throttle on the way home/ combined with rough idle. There’s also an extremely loud fan sound that I haven’t noticed before. This is my first car and I’m not used to running into issues so any help would be appreciated.
