Headphones for spatial audio

Hi all, I’m aware that one doesn’t “need” a special pair of cans for spatial audio listening but are there any considerations for mixing on Logic Pro? I’m going to start dabbling in it before creating a mixing room and was wondering. Is it worth getting Apple AirPods Max? The latency concerns me. 
I have various studio-grade open and closed back sets which I enjoy, just not sure if they’re suitable for mixing in Atmos. 
 

thanks team.

Have you tried APL Virtuoso or Sonarworks Sound ID Reference? I personally wouldn't bother with cans that are for listening to streamed music. Sort of strikes me like something you might use for listening to a master (a bit like the trope about using crappy old speakers to see if the final product still sounds decent).
