RE: How does one find great headphones unheard?

Posted by Helge Gundersen on April 19, 2025 at 04:28:39:
headphones.com is an exceptionally good site for a dealer, I think, with a number of overviews. Perhaps it can give you a good starting point for further investigation elsewhere.

Closed-backs are for not disturbing people around you -- and vice versa, sort of. They tend to sound a bit closed-in, although this will vary from model to model, I guess. Open models tend to sound more ... open. :-)
