Audio-Technica ATH-WP900
The 53mm diamond-like carbon drivers and flamed maple housings deliver a 5Hz-50kHz frequency response for detailed Hi-Res audio in a closed-back, 243-gram on-ear design. Its foldable frame, detachable A2DC cables, and handcrafted maple earcups that age gracefully ensure portable, comfortable long-listening sessions. This headphone best suits home-bound audiophiles focused on detailed music playback and isolation, not calls.
