#132 Razer Barracuda X: $69.00 Amazon eBay

Pros: Wireless with a rated 50 hours of battery, Bluetooth 5.2, a built-in microphone and a wired option. At 250 g with 32 ohms and 96 dB sensitivity it is easy to drive. It has no active noise cancelling, so the battery goes a long way.

Cons: Crinacle’s measurement gives a preference score of just 7, among the furthest from the Harman target in the class, with a warm tilt and a very uneven response. Without noise cancelling it offers no real isolation from outside noise. The Logitech G Pro X is rated higher at a somewhat higher price.
