Open Back Headphones under $500 (wired)

Of these 3 headphones, what ones would be the best blend of comfort, sound accuracy, and intimacy (wow factor). This isn't about sheer studio grade quality as that doesn't always relate to in game immersion and overall sound enjoyment/excitement. For example HD490 is fantastic but is very clinical which comes off as stale. I am shooting for something that will draw you into an environment where you can hear all the sounds separately but also in a rich colorful way.

Meze AER 105 - Comfy and good audio for price?

Hifiman Edition XV - Seems like the best audio characteristics but least comfortable?

Focal Hadenys - Balance between comfort and audio? (lacks dual 3.5mm for easy modmic plugin)

Best Vineyard Tour/Tasting Experience?

If you could only go to one vineyard for overall experience of tasting and tour, what one would it be? I prefer white/bubbly wines but am not opposed to reds by any means. It seems like Joseph Phelps is mentioned a lot but the description on the site seems more like a quick tasting rather than an overall experience.

Which Winery for Views/Tour?

I am going to Napa for the first time and need suggestions on what vineyards are great to visit - I am not a wine connoisseur so I am looking more for a good experience and tour. I already am planning to do lunch at Charlies or Mustards.

I've narrowed it down to:

Sterling Vineyards

Del Dotto Estate

Castello De Amorosa

Question, is there anyway to get a sig Sauer M11.a1 from a dealer. I know they typically come with 15rd mags but could someone sell it with a smaller mag?

Looking to get into bird hunting, primarily upland bird such as grouse. However, I would also likely do some but MUCH less duck hunting on occasion. I constantly hear that 12g is excessive for bird hunting and will be a pain to lug around and have no experience to compare to as I have always used 12gauge in the past when I used to hunt turkey and deer. On the flip side people argue that you can get lighter loads for a 12guage and actually have less recoil, but i'm not sure how true that is in the field.

I basically am looking at a browning feather superlight or lightning if that helps.
