What's the best open back like closed back headphone

>>107888576

>I had Hifiman Arya Stealth connected via XLR, Focal Elegia via 4.4mm, and B&W P7 via 6.35mm.
Dude had 3 headphones connected and playing all at the same time when it happened

>>107888638
Well this is awkward... I have those as well
I don't think I would qualify them that way
>>
>>107888027
Any good dongles to use with a 560s? Got recommended by a friend a fiio ka11 but at that price point i could go a few bucks extra and get a fiio e10k. Any better (potentially cheaper) options?
