I think the line between audiophile & what’s subjectively enjoyable to each person based on preference is often blurred. I don’t like most things classified as ’audiophile’ (except my jds element)

I recommend looking into IEMs if you want more of a ‘wow’ factor, plus they’re often cheaper and easier to drive efficiently. Another benefit if you try some IEMs is I always gift extra to friends since they aren’t outrageously priced and anyone can get great sound from their apple dongle. I’m currently satisfied with tygr 300r for over ears and ikko OH10 for IEMs. The Ikko’s block out 100% of outside noise and are insanely wide & immersive.
