$100-headphone review: What does a Benjamin get you?

Every type of electronic gadget has pricey, top-of-the-line models that provide phenomenal performance. But most of us have a gadget-shopping sweet spot: We look for the products that make us happy enough that spending more would be a waste.</p><p>
Though many audio fans tout pricey audiophile headphones that cost hundreds of dollars (or more!), the sweet spot for full-size cans has, over the past decade, gotten less and less expensive. I tested five popular models that you can easily find for under $100, as well as one that competes with them for significantly less, to see what a reasonable budget gets you. All the models I tested use a full-size, closed design. Some are intended for home or studio use, while others include mobile-friendly features. (For more about the different types of headphones, consult our headphone buying guide (http://www.macworld.com/article/1144708/headphones_buying_guide_2010.html).)</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2101309/100-headphone-review-what-does-a-benjamin-get-you.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
