Well, let's keep this short. I am thinking of adding another desktop headphone into my inventory. Hopefully open-back this time. However, I am not really sure which headphone is suitable. A lot of the upper-tier headphones are said to require desktop amps, which I cannot afford to have for more than one reason. Mainly because I travel A LOT and I'd rather not lug another sort of desktop amps around. So, I am looking for a nice, open-back headphone that could be used through portable amps (which will be connected via my uDac-2 from my laptop). Currently, I have a Fischer Audio Mystify coming my way. I am also thinking of getting either Stepdance, Headstage Arrow, or RSA Mustang into my amp selection.
Sound signature-wise, I prefer sounds that are cooler than warmer. Sparkles are very important to me.
Fire away your suggestions or recommendations (amp combination is also really welcome). Budget is around 500USD.
