When it comes to high-end earbuds for on-the-go listening, you’re probably familiar with brands such as Bose, Sony, Shure, and Audio Technica, but perhaps the best boutique headphone manufacturer is one you might not have heard of: Ultimate Ears. Ultimate Ears makes custom earbuds that are molded to fit the inside of your ears exactly — costing upwards of $1,200 in the process. But in addition to these super-high-end offerings, they also offer earbuds for regular folks that have the same high-quality innards as the pricey models.
The metro.fi 2 earbud is one of the best sets of headphones you’ll be able to find from any manufacturer for under $100. Coming with a set of different sized cups, they’ll fit comfortably in your ears, helping block out sounds like the subway or panhandlers. They’ve got high quality drivers inside, keeping the sound quality of your music crisp and clear even at high volumes. And they’re small enough to stash in your pocket, which is nice if you’re used to having to lug around a pair of over-the-ear headphones. When it comes to earbuds, nobody makes them quite as well as Ultimate Ears.
