My everyday listen used to be a Cyrus CD6 connected to a Cyrus Linkport and then fed to my Linn Power amp via the Linkports fixed audio output. it was not mid-fi, it was a high-end system. I'll leave you to do the maths.For high-end headphones it is very important the synergy of the whole audio chain, and also to have the proper headphone for the genre you are listening. The difference exists, but if you do not match them with the proper amp / dac and music genre you will reach the conclusion you mentioned.
I used to listen to all kinds of music with that system using such headphones as Denon AH-D5000, Astell & Kern T5P, Sennheiser HD700, not what I would consider mid-fi headphones.
My initial reaction the first time I heard that system was "WOW..HOLY screw " but over time I began to get used to it and then I realised that spending so much money on that kind of hifi equipment was not really worth it. I can get close to the same level of performance with much cheaper headphones/speakers and equipment now. I do not expect most people here to agree with me as the kind of conclusion i've reached is not one most people are willing to accept.
Cheers!

The AudioQuest Perch would look nice with your rack. I have one and its very solid build.

That's what I use for my Atticus. It's sturdy, very stable. Does the job perfectly. Expensive? Yes. But definitely worth it. The Woo stand is good too.The AudioQuest Perch would look nice with your rack. I have one and its very solid build.
