The Best Head Phones For 2020

The world's first headphones were invented in the 1880s, weighed over 11 pounds, and had no padding. Needless to say, they were not on our list. But the ones that did are amazing in every way. And to the question: are the best headphones of 2020 really much better than, say, the best of three or five years ago? In almost all cases, yes.

Two reasons: 

1, With a headphone market projected to surpass $ 15 billion by 2025, the world's top headphone makers are struggling to dominate. Every step-by-step upgrade, whether it's giants like Sony and Bose, or audio purists like Focal and Audeze, is a mutual benefit for consumers. (You will find the best deals for Audeze here)

Audeze has recently launched its new driver for headphones and said;

We are pleased to announce a new driver for Audeze Mobius. The driver provides an ASIO compliant interface that integrates with 32 and 64 bit Windows 7 and up as a standard WDM/DirectX compatible sound device.

To meet professional audio requirements, the driver is optimized for low latency and low CPU load. The driver provides a bit-perfect playback option and control panel in which buffer depths can be adjusted by the user to optimize settings for their system. The control panel also includes a volume mixer that allows the individual channel volume to be adjusted.

2 A few years ago, wireless headphones were especially new with often patchy and undersized results. Today, it is increasingly difficult to differentiate the quality of sound between wired and wireless and even truly wireless, and listening is believing.

With that in mind, we asked our world stereo audio experts to apply their combined decades of experience to choose the best headphones today, by category, without a hitch. And yes, it was hard work (no it wasn't), but we stood our ground (more like "I loved every second") and now we are proud to announce (after some pretty tough discussions) the "Best Headphones of 2020 to Present.
