#56 Audio-Technica ATH-CK2000Ti: $750.00 Amazon eBay

Pros: The dual phase push-pull design uses two dynamic drivers (9.8mm and 8.8mm) per side, and the manufacturer quotes a very wide 5 Hz to 45 kHz range. At 10 ohms and 100 dB/mW it works from a phone or portable player without a dedicated amp. Crinacle’s measurement gives a preference score of 60, with a mild warm tilt of about 0.8 dB.

Cons: A preference score of 60 and a 2.97 dB deviation from the target mean the tonal balance is noticeably off for most listeners. It is rated below the FiiO FH5 and well below the HIFIMAN RE2000, which offer more accurate tuning at similar money. No inline microphone or other convenience features are listed.
