The Bang and Olufsen Beoplay H95 offers superior overall sound quality, active noise cancelling, and high comfort, making them well-suited for air travel and focused listening in noisy environments. They provide a more immersive TV and video experience, and their build quality and included features such as a microphone, app equalization, and thoughtful controls are added benefits. However, the Koss KSC75, while less expensive, are praised for their value, providing decent sound quality and an open design which is typically more breathable, though less isolating. Their clip-on form factor means less head pressure but potentially less secure fit during activities. These are not wireless and lack additional features like active noise cancelling and an app, but can be well-suited for casual use, especially when convenience and cost are concerns. Give Feedback

"The Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H95 offers a near bespoke level of build quality and design with impeccable materials, intuitive controls, and great sound. From an industrial design perspective, they are one of the best wireless headphones we have tested so far."

"Let’s not insult the KSC75 by saying that it’s simply good for the price… because it’s far more than that. It basically has a monopoly at its asking price, and could still give modern budget headphones a run for their money 15 years after its release. The KSC75 is the world’s best not-headphone."
