Editor's note
These quietly became my default work-from-home pair. The tuning is so even that I stop noticing the headphones and just hear the music, which is exactly what I want for a long session. I do wish the clamp was a touch lighter, the first week it pressed a little until the band loosened up.
Why we picked it
Best for: Aspiring audiophiles who want honest, do-everything sound under $200.
Reference-neutral sound that punches way above its price. The smart-money pick.
What we like
- + Very neutral, accurate reference tuning
- + Wide soundstage and strong imaging
- + Light and comfortable with plush velour pads
- + Only needs a modest source to sing
Watch outs
- - Polite bass with little low-end slam
- - Can feel clinical until you adjust

- - No isolation (open-back)
