Best over-ear headphones of 2020
Summary
Released in late 2019, these clean and detailed sounding over-ear headphones have excellent bass response, and the cushy ear cups mean theyre also comfortable to wear. While its noise cancellation and comfort level doesnt quite measure up to the noise cancellation and comfort of Sony WH-1000XM3s, it has well padded ear cups covered with sheep leather and I had no trouble rocking it for a two-hour music listening session, to say nothing of the battery life. The companys new PX7, released in the fall of 2019, improves on both fronts, with excellent sound, four noise-canceling settings (Automatic, Low, High and Off) and well padded ear cups in a sturdy, eye-catching design. It supports AAC and aptX, uses Bluetooth 5.0, charges via USB-C and has up to 30 hours of battery life at moderate volume levels. Grado, which is based in Brooklyn, New York, and builds most of its products there, has not changed the iconic exterior design of the headphones and like its SR325 predecessors (the previous model was the SR325i), his model has the same firm, bowl-shaped foam pads that apply a little more pressure to the outer edges of your ears than the more simple foam pads of the step-down SR80e, which are arguably more comfortable.
