Like I said, if you want Beats because they’re Beats, go for it. I know, a lot of money, but if you have a chance to check them out, they’re pretty awesome and can give some perspective on the range of sound quality with headphones. Switching to yet another league, the big over-ear $2,000 Audeze LCD-3 open-back headphones, or the closed-back $1,800 Audeze LCD-XC are incredible. While $1,000, they're in a whole other league. Or if you want to go really crazy, check out the Oppo PM-1s. The aforementioned B&W P7s are also good, and I’m particularly fond of the Sennheiser Momentums. They were designed by the same guy who designed the M4U 2s. If you don’t mind dropping the noise cancelling, Brent Butterworth over at really likes the NAD VISO HP-50 over-ear headphones (shown here). The non-noise cancelling version, the M4 U1s, are Wirecutter's pick for the best $300 headphone (and rightly so). For similar money, the PSB M4U 2 headphones offer decent noise cancelling, and much better sound. This category is pretty easy too, as I’ve heard and reviewed a LOT of headphones both in the same price range as the Beats, and above and below in price. I mention these and a bunch of others in my 5 Great In-Ear Headphones article. Certainly a different price range, at $1,000, but an interesting perspective of what's out there. Stepping up a bit in price, the $500 NuForce Primo 8 are a noise-isolating headphone with some fantastic sound quality.Īt the other extreme are the Shure SE846, which are some of the best sounding headphones I've ever heard. The even cheaper Forte Audio Impact, at $50, are a little bass heavy, but still very, very good. I also like the $130 Beyerdynamic DX 160 iE. Wirecutter’s pick for earbuds in this range are the $150 Sony XBA-H1, which were pretty much universally liked by their listening panel. Lots of bass, but solid mid-range and treble.

I haven't had a chance to listen to the new C5 Series 2 yet, though. The $100 NHT Superbuds are my favorite in that price range. I like the original B&W C5s, which I mentioned in my 5 Best Travel Headphones article.

There are several excellent sounding earbud options. I know this after extensive objective and subjective testing for TheWirecutter.Ĭheck out Bose QuietComfort 25 Vs QuietComfort 20 for the pros and cons of both. If you're looking for something more portable, the QuietComfort 20s are the in-ear versions, and are fantastic. The Bose QuietComfort 25s have the best noise cancelling available in an over-ear headphone. Noise Isolating Headphones and Are Noise Cancelling Headphones Worth It? for more on what that means (and how it works). The certain Beats models have active noise cancelling. The RHA T10i's are some gorgeous in-ear headphones.Īlso check out my review of the gorgeous on-ear Harman Kardon Sohos that fold compact and flat.įor a few others, check out 5 Great Over-Ear Headphones and 5 Great In-Ear Headphones. The Parrot Zik 2.0's are probably the best looking over-ear headphones going right now, though they have some quirks. Two options to get your started that do sound great are the $180 Onkyo ES-HF300 (shown above) and the $400 B&W P7. There are lots of cool looking headphones, but many don’t sound great. It may come as a shock, but I have no idea what kind of style you like. This is, obviously, the most difficult and highly subjective. Oh, and the product links are to respected reviews (either ahem mine, or reviewers I trust). I’ve put together a few categories that should help narrow down your search.
