Forget Sony, Bose and JBL — I've been testing these on-ear headphones for a week and they've left me gobsmacked

A pair of Beyerdynamic Aventho 100 on-ear headphones.

I'm a music aficionado. A bit of an audiophile. A reviewer of audio gear. A playlist connoisseur. I listen to music almost entirely throughout the day — on my commute, at work, sometimes while playing video games, you name it. I'd like my favorite tunes to be injected straight into my bloodstream, actually.

Of course, to fully enjoy my music, I need the best headphones, and I've been using my trusty Marshall Monitor III over-ear cans for nearly a year now. I love everything about them: the way they look, the way they make music sound angelic, their long battery life, you get the gist. But as is the nature of my job, I test many headphones and earbuds, and I've spent the last week testing the Beyerdynamic Aventho 100 on-ear cans.
