#55 Sivga Oriole: $239.00 HiFiGo eBay
Pros: A preference score of 83 from a closed back design, with sub-bass extension right on target at 30 Hz, so it delivers deep, solid bass while blocking outside noise. Its 32 ohm impedance and 108 dB sensitivity mean a phone or laptop drives it to full volume without an amp. At 280 g it is light, and the bassy, warm balance suits listeners who like a fuller sound.
Cons: An 8.5 dB dip near 5.6 kHz pulls the presence band 3.8 dB below target, softening vocal clarity and the attack of guitars and snares. Low mids sit 2 dB under target, which can thin out the body of voices slightly. The AKG K371 shares the same rating at a much lower price.
