Headphones

From Star-Lord's orange Sony foams to Andy Dufresne's Grados — the headphones that made cinema personal.

As Seen On Screen

Andy Dufresne's Grado HP 1000 in The Shawshank Redemption is the most emotional headphone scene in cinema. Star-Lord's orange Sony MDR foams in Guardians of the Galaxy turned ‘80s foam headphones into a collectible. On screen, headphones aren't just audio gear — they're character.

Over-Ear On-Ear & Open-Back Studio & Monitoring

Over-Ear

$100 – $500

Full-size cans that envelop your ears. The best isolation, the biggest soundstage, and the most comfortable for long sessions.

Sennheiser
HD 650

The reference open-back that every other headphone gets compared to. Warm, detailed, and revealing without being fatiguing. A studio legend and an audiophile staple for over two decades.

~$320

Beyerdynamic
DT 770 Pro

Closed-back with a wide soundstage that defies the design. Velour pads, built like a tank, and a bass response that hits without bloating. The studio workhorse that producers swear by.

~$160

Sony
WH-1000XM5

The noise-cancelling king. 30 hours of battery, multipoint Bluetooth, and Sony's best ANC technology. When you need silence and music, nothing else comes close.

~$350

On-Ear & Open-Back

$80 – $500

Lighter, smaller, and — in the case of open-backs — more natural-sounding. The audiophile's choice for critical listening at home.

Grado
SR325x

Handmade in Brooklyn with Grado's fourth-generation drivers. Open-back, on-ear, and brutally revealing. The modern descendant of the HP 1000 that Andy Dufresne wore in Shawshank.

~$295
Same family as the Shawshank headphones

~$120

HiFiMan
Sundara

Planar magnetic drivers at a price point that used to be impossible. Faster transients and lower distortion than any dynamic driver at this price. The audiophile gateway drug.

~$300

Studio & Monitoring

$60 – $300

Flat, honest, built for mixing and mastering. What the producers and engineers use to hear every flaw — and every detail.

Audio-Technica
ATH-M50x

The industry standard for portable monitoring. Foldable, 45mm large-aperture drivers, three detachable cables. Found in every recording studio, radio station, and DJ booth on the planet.

~$150

Beyerdynamic
DT 990 Pro

Open-back studio reference with a bright, detailed top end. 250 ohm impedance wants a proper headphone amp. The mixing engineer's second opinion.

~$160

AKG

Open-back reference with a wide soundstage and accurate imaging. Austrian-engineered with genuine leather headband. Used in mastering studios where spatial accuracy is everything.
