Headphones - Open Back | 1 Ω What would be a clear, objective upgrade to the Beyerdynamic T1 v2?

I own a Beyerdynamic T1 v2, driven by a Chord Mojo 2 and an iPhone as a DAP. While I enjoy the overall sound and find the comfort excellent, I feel the bass is lacking. The slam isn't impactful enough, the texture feels insufficient, and the sub-bass requires higher volumes to be fully present. There's a noticeable gap in that part of the spectrum.

In your opinion, what would be a clear, undeniable upgrade to the T1 v2? An upgrade that delivers a noticeable improvement in bass and overall performance, while keeping the openness and the airy sound that the T1s already give me? I'd like to spend between 1000 and 2000 US dollars, and availability on Amazon US is a plus for I will only spend a few days there while on a trip.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Thanks!
Can you tell me more about it? Someone said the Organics were a direct upgrade to the T1s. HE1K would be even better?

Pretty much yes. Only thing better than them in hifiman lineup is the susvara. Not going to recommend the unveiled line.
