If you prioritize budget and still seek quality sound with the convenience of wireless connectivity for activities like commuting or casual listening, the 1More Sonoflow might be the better choice. On the other hand, if you are seeking top-notch sound fidelity and don't mind the higher cost and wired connection, the Sennheiser 560S could be superior, especially for critical listening sessions. Note that the Sennheiser likely offers a more detailed soundstage, which can enhance the enjoyment of complex musical arrangements and is ideal for home use where mobility isn't a concern.

"The SonoFlow is cheap and fun, without going too far into being overly warm or annoyingly grating, or sharp sounding. The ANC features are lovely with strong app integration and excellent battery life."
"Sennheiser made a near perfect pair of studio monitors with the HD 560S. Flat bass response? Check. Neutral and uncolored midrange? Check. Extended treble with a bit of lower-treble emphasis to highlight mastering flaws? Check. Fairly easy to drive? Check. Good soundstage and imaging? Check, and check."
