Hi, For checking for things like channel balance and background noise the phones win out, for overall presentation speakers are my choice. I will actually have both on line when I do such things and can switch back and forth to verify quality and balance. A danger is that regardless of how good the phones are and how good the speakers are there will be sonic differences and it might lead you to make a flawed mix. I suppose in a general way it makes sense to mix them on whatever the end use will be (speakers vs phones).
