8 best headphones of 2016 worth buying
A bunch of wearables that
blend audio quality with a touch of bling
In recent years, the
earbuds that come pack aged with most music-playing devices have significantly
improved, but you'll get much more from spending a little bit extra on a
separate pair of headphones. Those extra features range from wireless
connectivity, to noisecancellation, to choosing between the three major
form-factors, in-ear, on-ear and over-ear headphones. Check out our picks of
headphones you should buy today:
With the appealing candy
apple detailing, Sennheiser gets you in the door. But once you are in, you'll
stay for the killer sound quality that comes from the Momentum In-Ear
earphones. These are among the best deals in the market. The company also has a
version available for all mobile operating systems.
When you wear the B&O
H2, people will look at you curiously, trying to figure out who makes them so
they can buy t hei r ow n.We should know: it's how we found out about them.The
H2 sound performance should please even picky listeners with its warm and
balanced sound.
It's hard not to love the
NuForce HEM6s from Optoma. They come wit h ever y t hi ng you could possibly
need from a highend pair of headphones from multiple detachable cables (one
with a remote and one without for better sound quality) to a range of earbuds
that allow you to choose your level of noise-isolation. But the most important
reason why the NuForce HEM6 are our best pair of in-ear headphones is the sound
quality.
Instead of spending lots of
money on an expensive, heavy construction, AKG has spent the bulk of its money
on the K92's d rivers, which sound appropriately excellent. The K92 might feel
a little plastic-y, but they have a good amount of power where it matters the
most.
If the design of the Bose
QuietComfort 25 is too tame for you, check out the Creative Sound Blaster EVO
ZxR. Its active noise cancellation helps keep your immersion at an all-time
high with support for listening over Bluetooth. You can even tap an NFC-enabled
device for a quick wireless connection.
But i f you feel li ke
keeping things wired, connecting a 3.5mm cable opens up support for PS4, Mac
and PC.
As mentioned earlier, the
design is bold, but it matches the feature-set packed into the offering.
You, like everyone else,
probably want headphones that nail the tricky blend of design , useful features
and incredible sound. At $ 60, the Skullcandy Grind is an invitation to find
everything you want in a set of headphones (and then some) for an unbeatable price.
The Oppo PM-3s are a truly
stunning pair of headphones. They're equally comfortable being plugged into a
headphone amp at home as they are commuting through the hustle and bustle of a
big city, and they stand head and shoulders above rival products from bigger
brands.
Bose has finally brought
its fantastic noise-cancelling technology to a pair of wireless headphones and
it's done so without any of the traditional drawbacks of wireless headphones.
At $349.95, the QuietComfort 35s sits firmly at the premium end of the
spectrum, but i f you wa nt the best noise-cancelling headphones available
right now then you can't get any better.
