1. AKG K72 (£35 at time of writing)
Stylish and comfy, this is a closed-back design that sits over the ears and is light in weight. The mids are quite smooth in nature, but the bass performs well, too. A nice blend of the two.

2. GRADO SR80e (£89 at time of writing)
It’s the ‘e’ bit that makes all the difference. Detail fiends will love these, with impressive treble and midrange and a cool design.
3. PHILIPS’ SHB8850NC (£90 at time of writing)
If you are set on wireless headphones, these are a great choice. They offer decent detail and space around the soundstage, a compact design and excellent value for money.
