Need new headphone setup.


I have a speaker oriented system that is very satisfying to me. But because of a need to maintain domestic tranquility I’m looking to go to a less noisy alternative: i..e. headphones.
I want to spend a total of about $1000. So, nothing too fancy. Not the equivalent of my much more expensive speaker system.
What do I need to assemble a headphone system independent of my regular system which is accessible from my listening chair and side table?
I plan on solely streaming. My present system contains a WiFi streamer.
Can that be incorporated, or do I need a new streamer?
I understand that I need a headphone preamp along with the cans.
I know my budget is not too high, but can I get something relatively decent at it?

Currently, I listen though cheap ear buds and stream through an iPad.

Hey, wait a minute.  You didn't give me enough time.😊

I have ideas, opinions, thoughts.  These take time to contemplate and compose.  You can't ask us early in the morning on a Tuesday and then tell us later that day you have made your decision and ordered your new gear.  That violates sub-section 4, article b(8) of the audiophile code of conduct.
