IEMs and headphones have different presentations, so it's more about your preference (I personally prefer IEM even when at desk), although being an open back edition xs will surely have better soundstage and likely better detail too. BTR 5 will run them just fine, heck I even used cheap DC03 to run old inefficient Audeze LCDs. Not sure if headphones respond to cable though.

Thanks for the reply. Sure, they will definitely sound very different, I'm thinking more of how they compare on the 'hierarchy' ladder - a side-grade or definite upgrade.
