Detailed Comparison Review:
Design & Comfort	The AKG Pro Audio K72 studio headphones were designed by a company whose mic and headphones will help you create the most iconic recordings in the world. Its self-adjusting headband and lightweight are beautifully designed and crafted, which will make you comfortable for hours on end. This headband design keeps K72 over-ear headphones comfortable without compromising on driver size. These lightweight ear pads fit well on your ears and wrap nicely around them instead of pressing against them. It is connected to a one-way cable that will give you the freedom to move.	COWIN SE7 is very comfy and light. They fold up responsively for gym bags. Battery life is fantastic! The sound quality is pristine. Great noise cancellation. , are convenient on the earpiece. These headphones are attractive and super functional. The only thing is the tightness of the headband worn over time, it feels a little loose. I would highly recommend it.
Conclusion	This is the best headphone for $ 50 for studio monitoring. If you like a balanced and flat sound, you can go shopping for this AKG Pro Audio K72 on Amazon to listen to music. Otherwise, if you like more bass, use this extra bass headphone, Sennheiser HD 559. An audiophile loves sound clarity rather than bass, so I find it OK for casual music listening.	It would be an excellent deal for the money; the price is reasonable and entirely worth it to buy this perfect pair of ANC headphones. Furthermore, if you’re looking for headphones at a lower price, then I suggest you get the best-selling COWIN E7 active noise canceling wireless Bluetooth headphones or COWIN E7 Pro. Both of these headphones are excellent for noise-canceling with deep bass sound listening. Otherwise, if you’re looking for expensive soundstage and premium quality noise-canceling, check our guide on the top 10 noise-canceling headphones.
