If superior sound quality and an immersive listening experience while listening to music or watching TV are your top priorities and you have an amplifier, then the HifiMan Edition XS would be a better choice. However, keep in mind that these headphones are bulky, don't have wireless capabilities, lack a microphone, and are not suitable for exercise or travel. On the other hand, if you need headphones that are versatile for everyday use, including exercising, calls, and meetings, and you appreciate additional health tracking features, then the Mojawa HaptiFit Terra would be more suitable. They provide bone conduction technology that allows situational awareness, sweat and dust resistance, and built-in heart rate and accelerometer sensors, but with the tradeoff of lower sound quality.

"The Edition XS easily compete with headphones in their price range with a very high price-to-performance ratio. The XS are an amazing value and offer performance not far off from headphones more than twice their cost. These will be a mind-blowing revelation for enthusiasts and music lovers who have only heard standard big-brand mainstream headphones."
