Headphones with the right sound quality settings will allow you to plunge into the world of music, enjoy the game or chat with friends. The user himself can choose the appropriate accessory according to his preferences. After analyzing customer reviews and expert comments, I'm ready to present a rating of the best wired headphones in 2019.
Panasonic RP-HJE125
Top earplugs Panasonic RP-HJE125 open. The model is based on the ergonomic Ergofit design for comfort. The OctaRib speakers are responsible for high-quality sound. The range of reproducible frequencies is 10-24000 Hz with a sensitivity of 97 dB / mW. The body, wires and ear cushions are all in the same color to emphasize the unity of the design. The set includes 3 pairs of sets of ear pads of different sizes for maximum user convenience. Available in 9 colors. Cable length - 1.1 m.

Nice budget Panasonic model with good sound and moderate bass. For this price, you can hardly expect anything outstanding, but I think these headphones do their job well. The only negative is a thin, fragile wire that often breaks. Price - 530 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 87% of buyers recommend this product.
Samsung EO-EG920 Fit
A Samsung model that fits comfortably in the auricle thanks to the ergonomically designed ear tips and earhooks. The hybrid design combines the best of headsets and headphones - combining comfortable earbuds for excellent sound isolation with the comfort of regular on-ear headphones. Optimized for use with Samsung smartphones, the earbuds deliver a clearer, richer sound. A 12mm dynamic driver is responsible for the overall tonal balance and deep bass. The microphone housing is made of sound-absorbing material: you can appreciate the high quality of speech transmission, unlike the Panasonic RP-HJE125 without a headset. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz, the sensitivity is 101 dB / mW. The body, wires and ear cushions are made in the same design. The package includes 3 pairs of ear pads of different sizes. 4 colors. Cable length - 1.2 m.
Benefits:
- volume control;
- microphone;
- comfortable Wing tip inserts;
- good sound insulation;
- quality cord.
Disadvantages:
- outwardly they look unattractive;
- the left earpiece often fails;
- without a sports attachment in the usual version, the headphones periodically fall out.
A very convenient model for sports or everyday needs. There is a volume control and a microphone, which the Panasonic RP-HJE125 lacks, but it has a more attractive design and comes in 9 colors, not 4 like the EO-EG920 Fit. But after 3-4 months the left earpiece fails, less often the right one. Price - 870 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 83% of shoppers recommend this product.
JBL T450
JBL on-ear headphones use lightweight ear cups to fit snugly around your ears, while the foldable design fits easily into a small bag. The headphones use a durable flat cable that does not get tangled, it has a volume control, a microphone. Inside the cabinet is a pair of 32mm speakers capable of producing powerful JBL Pure Bass sound. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz with a sensitivity of 115 dB / mW. 2 colors - black, blue. Cable length - 1.2 m.
Benefits:
- compactness;
- high-quality sound;
- good sound insulation;
- flat cable;
- high-quality body materials.
Disadvantages:
- short wire for on-ear headphones;
- squeeze the ears very strongly;
- lacks low frequencies.
JBL on-ear headphones are more suited for gaming than listening to music or talking. But they cannot be worn for a long time: they squeeze the ears and head very strongly, causing great discomfort. But if you use them to listen to music, then you will definitely need an equalizer to set the high and low frequencies. I consider the Samsung EO-EG920 Fit model more preferable: it is cheaper, has a microphone, volume control, and does not have a headache. Price - 1390 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 84% of buyers recommend this product.
Xiaomi Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro 2
The Xiaomi earbuds have an all-metal body, and a special coating with a unique polish, which gives them an even more elegant look. They are very pleasant to the touch, resistant to mechanical damage. The speaker diaphragm is made of graphite composite, which provides high-quality sound over a wide range. With Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro 2, you can enjoy impressive clarity of high tones, deep bass. The cord is double insulated to provide strength even with frequent and strong bends. The control unit is equipped with a MEMS microphone that transmits voice without distortion, even with ambient noise. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz with a sensitivity of 100 dB / mW. The body, wires and ear cushions are all in the same color to emphasize the unity of the design. The set includes 3 pairs of ear pads of different sizes for user convenience. Cable length - 1.25 m.
Benefits:
- high quality materials;
- durable cord;
- very good sound.
Disadvantages:
- the wire gets tangled easily;
- ear pads rub your ears a lot;
- on MIUI 10, these headphones are not on the Mi sound improvement list;
- inconvenient buttons on the control panel.
Vacuum headphones Mi In-Ear Headphones Pro 2 have high-quality sound because of the reinforcing-dynamic type of speakers, which none of the competitors can boast. The sound is very clear, loud, with a moderate level of bass. But the ear pads from the kit rub your ears a lot, and the wire, although very durable, is constantly tangled. I have no complaints about the sound, but there are negative aspects about practicality. Price - 1650 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 90% of buyers recommend this product.
Apple earpods
Apple technology has always been famous for the quality of new products released. The EarPods model is in two types, they differ in the type of connection - Lightning and 3.5 mm. Unlike the round shape of conventional in-ear headphones, EarPods are designed around the geometry of the auricle. Therefore, for many, they will be more convenient than any other earbuds. Speakers are specially designed for minimal loss of sound and good sound. EarPods have a built-in remote that you can use to adjust volume, control music or video playback, and take or end calls with a single tap. They have more reliable protection against sweat and water. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz with a sensitivity of 109 dB / mW. Cable length - 1.2 m. Available in beautiful white color.
Benefits:
- beautiful view;
- quality, durability;
- the level and quality of sound are at their best
- suitable for Apple technology and other phone models.
Disadvantages:

- overcharge;
- you can often buy a fake.
Headphones from Apple with high quality loud sound. The price is clearly overpriced due to the advertised brand, but in terms of quality they are a cut above the Samsung EO-EG920 Fit and Panasonic RP-HJE125. Great design. But they are not suitable for everyone: for many they simply fall out of their ears, then they have to buy attachments-holders. Price - 2500 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 78% of buyers recommend this product.
Marshall Major III
Major III is an upgraded Major II model. The technical characteristics and design were changed, which made high-quality stylish headphones even more convenient to use. The design has become visually more compact due to the narrowing of the headband. The material has not changed: ear pads, headband are finished with eco-leather. There were complaints about older versions: users noted a high density of the filler of soft structural elements. Headphones pressed, created discomfort - it was difficult to withstand even an hour in them. Now, with the change of filling in Major III, such a feeling does not arise - you can enjoy the music for hours on end in absolute comfort. Such a solution to the problem would be useful for the JBL T450, which put a lot of pressure on the head and ears. The new models feature a detachable connection cable. All new Marshall models, equipped with a detachable cable, provide the ability to connect the cable separately to each bowl thanks to the second connector. You can conveniently position the cable for right-handed or left-handed. Unlike accessories from other manufacturers, here you can use the second connector to connect another pair of headphones, so that two people can listen to music from one device. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz with a sensitivity of 99 dB / mW.
Benefits:
- high quality materials;
- practicality;
- detachable cable;
- you can use the second connector to connect more headphones;
- great sound.
Disadvantages:
- high price;
- all the same, it presses on the head, but not much;
- poor sound insulation;
- the weight.
A beautiful model of the famous Marshall company with a detachable connection cable. You can listen to music with a friend at the same time, none of the TOP models will provide such an opportunity. The headphones are heavy, press on the head - not as hard as the JBL T450, but still perceptible. Price - 3990 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 89% of buyers recommend this product.
Beats urBeats3
The urBeats3 wired in-ear headphones deliver unmatched music listening pleasure thanks to the coaxial dynamic head. The model is in 2 types, like Apple EarPods - Lightning and 3.5 mm. Laser-cut holes deliver powerful, balanced low frequencies, while the dual-chamber speaker system provides synchronization and natural sound. You can enjoy all shades of music of any genre. With RemoteTalk cable you are always connected. Just press one button to answer a call, chat using the built-in microphone, control music, even call Siri. When you take off the headphones, the magnetic ones are attracted to each other. Wires are not tangled. A very practical, convenient solution that competitors in the rating cannot boast of. It remains only to wind them up and remove. The range of reproducible frequencies is 20–20,000 Hz, the sensitivity is 110 dB / mW. Cable length - 1.2 m.
Benefits:
- RemoteTalk cable
- excellent sound quality;
- beautiful view;
- 2 types of connection;
- good sound insulation.
Disadvantages:
- high price;
- sound with a high bass level;
- inconvenient volume rocker.
In terms of sound level, the model is not too different from Apple EarPods, it also has 2 types of connection. I really liked that the headphones are attracted to each other by the magnetic earbuds, this does not allow them to get confused. In addition to high-quality sound, they look good, have good noise isolation, do not fall out of your ears, like EarPods. Price - 5500 rubles. Considering it, I would like to have a more convenient volume rocker that will easily change the volume level or switch music. On the Yandex. Market 78% of buyers recommend this product.
Sony MDR-XB950AP
Over-the-ear headphones with powerful 40mm neodymium drivers for deep, balanced sound even at high volumes thanks to the secure earhook. The advanced direct vibration system creates an acoustically sealed space around the ears without releasing low frequencies. Low-frequency sound is amplified by the Bass Booster function - the sound is deep, balanced. Controlling the frequency range is possible thanks to the curved vents. They are optimized for low frequency airflow, so bass is reproduced without distortion. The headphones have a metal rim and a soft backing. Fitted ear cushions provide comfort and comfort in any situation. The control panel is made of aluminum. This lightweight material guarantees a prestigious appearance, ease of use, suppresses vibration, provides a deep, energetic sound. Sound-insulating dense earpads ensure a comfortable listening experience. The pressure-relieving earbuds fit snugly around your ears for perfect music transmission and no background sounds. The cable is equipped with a convenient built-in remote control system and microphone. You can answer calls in headset mode at any time on Android smartphones, iPhone. The range of reproducible frequencies is 3–28000 Hz. This is the highest indicator in the rating, the sensitivity is 106 dB / mW. Cable length - 1.2 m.
Benefits:
- great design;
- high quality sound;
- sound amplification function Bass Booster;
- maximum reproducible frequency range - 28000 Hz;
- do not put pressure on the head and ears.
Disadvantages:
- high price;
- short cable;
- no volume control button;
- non-removable cable;
- brushed metal inserts on the cups (where the Sony labels are located) are scratched very quickly.
You will feel excellent sound in this model if you listen to music in high quality, music with low quality bitrate will sound like in cheap headphones. Thanks to the Bass Booster function, the sound is really very deep, such an effect was not even with the Marshall Major III. But I would like to have a detachable cable, as in Marshall, since here it is very short. I did not like the lack of volume control: the headset has only 1 call acceptance or rejection button, which is very inconvenient. Another plus - unlike Marshall and JBL, they do not put pressure on the head and ears, it is very comfortable to wear them even for a long time. Price - 5500 rubles. On the Yandex. Market 82% of buyers recommend this product.
Sennheiser HD 280 Pro
The HD 280 Pro is a professional monitor headphone that combines reliability, quality, accurate audio reproduction, and excellent noise isolation. This is one of the successful models of monitor headphones, it has a new headband with an improved folding mechanism for greater reliability, with an ergonomic headband pad for comfort. The model has a flat frequency response and good sound insulation with a decrease in the level of external noise by 32 dB maximum. Other features include light weight, durable, twisted cable with one-way connection, and soft ear cushions for a comfortable fit. The range of reproducible frequencies is 8–25000 Hz, the sensitivity is 113 dB / mW. Cable length - 1.3-3 m. The set includes an adapter for a 6.3 mm jack.

- adapter for jack 6,3 mm;
- high sound quality;
- excellent insulation.
Disadvantages:
- high price;

I think these headphones are intended only for home use: they are very bulky. If you listen to music on your phone, you will not know how high quality sound they can produce. In terms of noise isolation, they surpass even the Sony MDR-XB950AP: no extraneous sounds are heard in them at all. The kit includes an adapter for a 6.3 mm jack, suitable for use in a mixer. With prolonged use, the head does not hurt, but the ears sweat a lot, since the air does not come in at all. Price - 7200 rubles. On the Yandex.Market 95% of buyers recommend this product.
Audio-Technica ATH-M50x
Closing the rating are Audio-Technica ATH-M50X full-size headphones - pure balanced sound, solid construction, attractive design and generous package. The bowls are made of practical matte plastic, although the manufacturer could have used aluminum components for the price. I would like to note the pivoting mechanism and the folding design of the aforementioned cups, which improve mobility. There are soft filling of the headband, tactilely pleasant leather ear cushions that delicately envelop the auricle. I was also pleased with the type of cable used, which received a removable architecture for connecting to the left bowl, as in the Marshall Major III model. The set includes three different cords, one of them is twisted. Audio reproduction is handled by 45mm neodymium magnet speakers. The bass delivery is impeccable: it plays out tightly, legibly and monolithically. The delivery set includes a set of 3 cords, a soft case with an eco-leather drawstring and an adapter for 6.3 mm audio jack. The range of reproducible frequencies is 15–28000 Hz with a sensitivity of 99 dB / mW.
Benefits:

- detachable cable;
- 3 different cables;
- good build quality and materials;
- excellent sound insulation.
Disadvantages:
- high price;
- bulky;
- not suitable for playing music from a smartphone.
The leader of the rating has a high price - 11,520 rubles, but for this money you will get headphones with perfect, clear and loud sound. I was very pleased with the ability to detach the cable, as in the Marshall Major III model - this is sorely lacking in the Sennheiser HD 280 Pro and Sony MDR-XB950AP. If you use these headphones when playing tracks from your phone, you will not reach their full potential, they will be able to show their power to the maximum when listening to music from a computer or on specialized equipment. The set includes 3 cables of various lengths: it's nice that the manufacturer has taken care of this. On the Yandex. Market 88% of buyers recommend this product.
