Over-Ear Headphones

Over-ear headphones, or circumaural headphones, feature large cushioned cups that fully enclose the ears, providing excellent long-term comfort and natural noise isolation. This design accommodates larger drivers, generally resulting in superior sound quality, deeper bass, and a wider soundstage compared to smaller models. While they offer the most immersive listening experience, their bulky frame makes them less portable than on-ear or in-ear alternatives.
