If you're looking for high-quality headphones for a reasonable price, look no further than these closed-back models. Their soundstages aren't as large and immersive as open-back models but they still offer great audio fidelity.
These over-ear wireless headphones are comfortable for long listening sessions and provide an excellent level of ANC. They also have an app that can be used as a companion with EQ presets as well as a replacement cable that is coiled.

Its headband is padded with foam and can be easily secured to the ears. The cups can be adjusted to accommodate larger heads.

These headphones require an amplifier to function correctly. The amp will make the frequencies more smooth and even and reduce distortion. Use an audiophile headphones stand to keep the headphones from being damaged by foreign objects. The headphone stand also keeps the cord out of the way. This is advantageous because it's long.
Sennheiser HD600 headphones are perfect for listening to music in a neutral environment and offer precise reproduction of high-resolution audio. They feature a large soundstage, and their open design makes them ideal for audio systems in the home. The HD 600s are compatible with CDs, vinyl, and digital files. They also have a great frequency response, and their neodymium magnets produce superior sound.

Mixing engineers will find them headphones beats a excellent choice for those who wish to hear all the details in their mixes without getting fatigued by headphones that place an focus on certain frequencies. The HD 650 also have above-average consistency in the bass range, meaning they will sound identical regardless of how you position and wear them. They are not as consistent in the treble range, and you can hear a 6dB difference depending on the shape of your ear and the way you wear them.
The headband and ear pads are made of a soft and comfortable material, making the HD 650s comfortable for long-lasting sessions. The headband offers a decent amount of cushion to ensure that it doesn't put pressure too heavily on your ears, and the ear cups are large and elliptical, which fit comfortably around any shape of ear.

MOMENTUM
Sennheiser's MOMENTUM headphones are one of its most sought-after active noise cancellation (ANC) headphones. With a proven track record and a price, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless headphones are up against tough competition from the latest offerings from Bose, Sony, and Apple however, they provide many advantages that make them worth your consideration if you're in the market for ANC headphones.
The ear cups are cushioned and designed to comfortably fit around your ears. They also have soft leatherette material on the top portion of the band that goes around your head. The band is flexible enough to accommodate glasses. I found it to be comfortable for long periods of time.
The MOMENTUM Wireless is a balanced headphone, unlike other ANC headphones that emphasize highs or bass. This is a good thing as it provides a more balanced representation of speech and music. They can boost lower frequencies but this is a common feature of headphones made for commuters in areas where noise can be a challenge to low-frequency speech and music.
Like other frontrunners in the ANC category The MOMENTUM 4 Wireless noise reduction is good. It's not as impressive as our top ANC headphones however it's very close. You can also defer projects by two clicks until the next quarter which makes them a great choice for school or work.
The MOMENTUM Wireless can be connected to an Bluetooth device and you can select from SBC AAC, aptX, or aAC codecs. You can also utilize the headphone's 3.5mm connector to listen to sources that do not have Bluetooth support.
The MOMENTUM 4 Wireless features a microphone array that lets you make and receive calls. The microphone does a decent job, but it's not going to give the highest quality audio for phone conversations. The microphone is still better than the ones on most entry-level headphones.
