Mount Rushmore of headphones? (alien.top)

I was just curious as a newcomer to this hobby what your “Mt Rushmore” of headphones would be and why? Maybe one ubiquitous, one iconic, one studio headphone, and one high end / audiophile pick? If that’s too broad you could just focus on whichever category is most relevant to you. Let me know if this discussion already exists on this sub or elsewhere!

Are you aware of any amazing sets that include a microphone? I'm interested in a high-quality set.. but would appreciate microphone functionality

Honestly your best bet is going for a well regarded standalone headphone and combine it with something like the Antlion Modmic. Add some cable ties (preferably the twisty ones, or velcro) so you're only dealing with one wire effectively and you get the headset form factor with the flexibility of two separate devices.

Thanks for the insight here!
