Audio-Technica ATH-M50x
Sennheiser HD 560S
The Sennheiser HD 560S are better headphones if you want a better PRTF performance, which can be indicative of a more immersive sound. The Sennheiser are open-back headphones that are more comfortable and have significantly better-matched L/R drivers. However, the Audio-Technica are closed-back headphones that are better built and more versatile if you need headphones that don't leak sound and provide some passive isolation.
