Spacious sounding?
my beloved Meze 109 pro no doubt!

Atrium, no question. Endless of hours of listening without fatigue. It's a headphone that can be insanely dynamic, yet also be fatigue free, relaxing and warm at the same time.

HD6XX for me right now on a budget.

HD6XX for me right now on a budget.

One of my finest listening memories involved the HD600, the Meier Audio HeadFive, an EVS-modded Samsung CD player and The Dave Brubeck Quartet's "Time Out" album.

Gotta go with the Hifiman HE-500. Runners-up would be LCD-3 and Sony CD900ST, although the latter has a tiny soundstage.

Beyerdynamic T1 Gen 3 and the HD 650 and HD 660S. Can listen to those three all day without issue. Probably the 660S2 and HD 600 as well.

For me, it's the Hifiman Shangri-La Jr. I can listen, and have listened, to that headphone for hours at a time without ever wanting to stop. It has well-extended treble that's very airy yet smooth, and for me, airy treble is relaxing. Soundstage is quite good and sound placement seems natural to me (in comparison, I thought the HD800S was disproportionately wider than it was deep in soundstage), but above all, the SGL Jr is very open sounding, creating a convincing illusion that sounds are radiating into a space around me rather than being shot directly at me. I love an airy, open, slightly sparkly sound in headphones, and the Jr delivers that in spades. It's not the most "natural" tonality, but it works well for classical music, while for vocal EDM the midrange tuning pulls vocals back (overly forward vocals quickly annoy me) and gives them a bit of a "breathy" or "whisper-like" character which I enjoy. I run it on the Ferrum Erco DAC to give it more dynamic kick and a modded Stax SRM-006tS that adds a slight bit of warmth to the sound.
Fatigue-free? Yes.
Laid back? Sort of, at least it is in the ways that matter to me.
Natural? Not quite, but natural enough.
Spacious? Definitely!

“What's your favorite fatigue-free, laid back, natural and spacious sounding headphone at any price?”

Well, that is what my Susvara is to me when I want a relaxing headphone to just listen to all day. If I am in the opposite mood and want to do some critical listening, I use my SR1a.

 

[csch92]

but do they sound 7k good?

 

[Saberpunch]

On my setup, yeah.

 

[SLAFL]

LCD-3 for sure for relaxing sound... I go for IEMs for more tight/fast sound.

 

[OceansRise]

Probably either LCD-3 or HD600. I find them both quite laid back and non-fatiguing.
