Hello, I am looking for a quality and durable headphone with high audio quality on a budget around $200, I want it to last long and be comfortable when I wear it for hours, I primarily listen to music and audio-books and do some casual gaming like story games and Minecraft, I don’t usually carry headphones around but portability would be nice, preferably it’s not from a niche brand since the availability of brands is low in my country does anyone have any recommendations?


Does anyone else rely on the media controls on headphones? I feel like once you add that requirement the options are a short list. I checked out a few mentioned here but none seem to have media controls. What does everyone else do when they listen to podcasts or something?
I think thats a technological limitation, you probably only find those on bluetooth headphones. How about looking for a little DAC+Amp? Just don’t get roped into spending hundreds by the thousands of websites and youtubers telling you how amazing they supposedly sound
