I've tested dozens of wireless headphones, and this $500 pair is the best I've used
Jeff Dunn/Business Insider
When you go wireless, you accept trade-offs. The questions become "Does the connection avoid freaking out all the time?" and "Do they sound that much worse than a normal pair?" Everyone would love a world without wires, and that desire goes a long way, but cords are still reliable little things from a quality perspective.
Because of those technical challenges, very few Bluetooth headphones manage to be polished enough to provide a genuinely delightful experience. But Sennheiser's HD 1 Wireless are an exception.
They've been around for a while now - they used to be called the "Momentum Wireless" - and I am far from the first person to say they're great. They also cost a whopping $500.
But that high price is really the only thing you could call a "flaw." The HD 1 Wireless aren't much of a value, but they're the type of product that just feels pleasant whenever you need them. If you must go wireless, and you simply want the best, they should be near the top of your shortlist. Here's why:
