Audio-Technica ATH A500 - Headphones

The 3D Wing Support Housing actually makes these comfortable to wear for hours, and the closed-back design blocks out enough noise for focused listening. Sound is clear across the whole frequency range without being harsh.

The 53mm drivers give these headphones a really clean, detailed sound across the whole frequency range for the price. The ear-fitting pads are also noticeably more comfortable than average for long listening sessions.

The 3D Wing Support system really takes the pressure off my ears during long listening sessions, and the frequency range down to 5Hz gives sub-bass a surprising amount of detail for closed-back cans.
