I’ve tested a ton of wireless earbuds, but I keep coming back to this affordable wired set – here’s why

Sennheiser IE 200 plugged into music player.

Here at TechRadar, I’ve been lucky enough to test out some of the best headphones, including the newly released Sony WH-1000XM6 and the five-star Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3, to name a couple. And not only that – I’ve also got hands on with some of the best wireless earbuds like the LG Tone Free T90S, which were a real highlight.

But despite trying all of this fancy Bluetooth-enabled listening gear, I have to admit something: I can’t stop going back to my trusty wired earbuds. Specifically, I really can’t get enough of my Sennheiser IE 200 in-ear monitors, which are Sennheiser's entry-level wired in-ear offering (below the mid-range IE 600 and flagship IE 900). They're simply some of the best wired earbuds I’ve ever reviewed – especially if we’re talking value for money.
