Just curious. What is everyone using for their work/office headphone setup?

I assume most are using either closedback or IEM's for the isolation? Anyone using openbacks? How about full blown DAC/amp setups?

Photos would be great as well :)

For me, I wanted something simple/inexpensive so it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if they got swiped by someone at work while I leave them there. Isolation is a must too. Having said that, I'm using a Centrance DACport HD feeding an AKG K371. Gives me great all-around sound for music, YouTube videos, and training videos required for work while being comfortable and providing good isolation (and not breaking the bank).

What do you guys use?

HE-400i
DAC’s: Topping E30, Schiit Modius
Amps: Drop THX 789, Schiit Heresy, Topping L30
Optical out to DAC

I’m lucky to not share a workspace so I can listen to open headphones. That and my Aeon Flow Open is packed.

I mostly listen to Amazon Prime Music.

No pics at the moment but I was using:
1. Pro-Ject Head Box S2 Digital DAC/Amp with InEar StageDiver 5 or Oppo PM3
and
2. LG V30 with AT DSR7BT.

Now I am using the Pro-Ject Head Box S2 with 64 Audio Nio. I feel like I need to upgrade my source now!
I will sometimes rotate in other IEMs. I typically use Tidal, and sometimes hires files I have on a flash drive or my phone.
