If you're on a tighter budget and primarily want to enjoy music at home with an expansive sound and don't need wireless connectivity, the AKG K712 Pro may suit you; however, bear in mind that they're open-back, so they leak sound and don't isolate noise well, they also need an amplifier for optimal use. The Master & Dynamic MW75-Neuro, while more expensive, offers advanced features such as active noise cancelling, wireless capabilities with low latency for gaming and TV, sweatproofing, and integrated AI technology to help optimize your day. These are better all-rounders and suitable for various environments, including travel and exercise, but you pay a premium for these conveniences. Give Feedback
