I currently have an Aimpoint T1 in a Daniel Defense mount. It allows lower 1/3 co witness with irons.

I am looking to get anaimpoint 3x magnifier and was wondering which one would allow the magnifier to line up best/closest to the T1 with Daniel Defense mount ?

The DD mount is lower 1/3 as is the LT660 so this picture would be applicable.

That is extremely helpful. Any suggestions between LaRue's offerings vs the factory mount ?

The principal advantage of the magnifier is that you can easily remove it and have just the aimpoint - the LT system does precisely that. Not sure if that's what you're after, but QD magnifier is an improvement.

I use a DD mount for my H1 and a Larue FTS for my magnifier.
The magnifier sits a hair higher than the H1, but its almost imperceptible. It has had NO negative effect WRT shift in zero, accuracy, or eye relief/shadow.
