TL;DR: Audeze Maxwell, should I go for it?

I was first looking at either the FiiO FT5 or FT7 but Gemini talked me out of it (recommending the Audeze Maxwell above all else for my purposes). I don't have any consoles btw, so IDK what version I should get, also don't need a mic, I have an AT2020 at my desk.
>Location
Germany
>Budget
500€, but if there's something amazing just beyond I would go the extra mile.
>Intended use
Home, Uni, Office and everything in between / on the go: Walking, Cycling, Gym, Work, etc.
>Kind (open or closed, over-ear or on-ear)
Wanted open back planars, must be over ear, but it shouldn't be a nuisance (in terms of noise pollution towards people around me, which is why the LLM pivoted me to the Maxwells).
>Preferred tonal balance (or genres you like)
I like "fast" music (EDM, Techno, Rock, etc) here's some artists I listen to:
Kavinsky, Pacifica, Dutch Melrose, Rammstein, Kenya Grace, Linkin Park, Metric, Jfarrari, Imagine Dragons, WesGhost, Siames, etc.
>Past headphones and your thoughts on them
No real headphones, only gaymer shit (ironic ikr) or iems. The most expensive stuff I've ever owned are my current Nothing Ear (3) but wearing those for more than an hour gives my an burning sensation in my ear canals (always happens with in ears, docs can't find shit, hurr durr "psychosomatic").
>Source(s) (PC, interface, headphone amp, phone, ...)
Linux PC with some audio interface I want to get later (for now it's a Focusrite Scarlet Gen4 Solo), Phone (S25 Ultra with some dongle I guess or Bluetooth if it has stopped being gay), work laptop with the same dongle I would use with the phone or also bluetooth.
>Other requirements
Aesthetically they shouldn't look like a deformed sextoy or alien peanus (Dan Clark Audio, etc), I really like industrial design (the FT5's design is literally perfect).
I also don't want to pay what's left of a monthly salary on some shitass dynamic driverlet headphones.
