Sony makes some of the best headphones around at the higher end but it has a broad range of options available at other price points as well.

In fact, we believe that Sony has done a better job of implementing its bass boost tech here than in previous models. We gave the ULT Wear headphones , highlighting the comfortable design, generally strong audio quality and improvements to active noise cancellation.

However, the ULT boost feature can prove to be a bit much.
