| Bottom line | Sennheiser's exquisite HD 800s sound more like listening to full-size speakers than any other headphones we've heard to date. | The new HD 598's "wow" styling updates the classic Sennheiser look, and the sound has more detail and higher resolution than previous models. We recommend these cans to anyone looking for a pair of headphones with precision sound quality and a wide-open soundstage. | The Sennheiser HD 600 headphones are a good choice for home listening if you're willing to pay for high-quality sound. | The Audio-Technica ATH-M50 Professional Studio Monitor Headphones are among the best available for less than $200, offering excellent sound and build quality. |
