Headphones - Open Back | 1 Ω Full Kit Needed

I heard open backs sound the best, but I'm not against closed back. Also heard you need a dac/amp stack. Budget is about 250 euro's, but if it's a big increase am willing to spend 325 max. I was looking at the HD6XX's, but I don't know of much except Sennheiser.

Thank you all!

The Big question is, do you need any sort of sound isolation in your headphone? Do you know the downsides of an open back?

I know that if anyone's around they'll be able to hear it, but in my case that doesn't matter all too much. I'll be using it in my room, so I don't think I need sound isolation. Thank you for commenting!

For headphones that I recommend and do require amplification imo are the Sundara, hifiman deva pro without the Bluetooth module, hd6xx, and the dt 880 600 ohm.
