Overhead Headphones

I saw a lovely set in John Lewis today by Sonos. Sound was utterly amazing but they were £500 which is way beyond my budget. Can anyone suggest a good set up to £250. Must be overhead ones.

I bought some great headphones, they are great for music and podcasts, comfy to wear and the battery life is amazing and charge really quickly

Forgot pic (I'm crap with links) they cost £15!! Everyone I've recommended them to, think they are great too

I have these and they are fantastic, and under £250 now as there is a newer version out. They're lasted well too, I bought mine in 2021.

Apologies for using "great" so many times :)

Fully second these. I upgraded to the 5s and regret it - they're not a patch on the 4s!

Agree the Sony ones. Much better than beats. Noise cancelling system is awesome

toobusytothink · 30/06/2024 19:56

These are the ones Sony WH-1000XM3 Just under £250

I have Bose QC ones and they are outstanding. Very comfortable. Excellent sound and fantastic noise cancelling. I paid £250 during lockdown so they're probably still around that price.

Oh wow xm4s now under £250 too! Might have to get a pair myself
