Headphones & Headsets: High-end

High-end headphones represent the point at which audio reproduction stops being a compromise. Every engineering decision — driver design, materials selection, acoustic tuning, headband construction — is made in pursuit of the most faithful, detailed and immersive listening experience possible, regardless of cost.

The result is headphones that reveal layers in recordings that entry and mid-level models simply cannot resolve: the room a
piano was recorded in, the breath before a vocal phrase, the space between instruments in a well-mixed track. In addition, they may even offer additional functionality and features compared to entry level headphones and headsets.
