Best wireless over-ear headphones for bass

Top pick: Sony ULT Wear — it's built around Sony's ULT bass mode, so you get a big, adjustable low end without losing clarity, plus noise cancelling and long battery life. The best all-rounder for bass-first listening.

Who the others suit:

• Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2 — the most extreme bass; its Crusher slider physically thumps, for people who want that over accuracy.
• Skullcandy Crusher PLYR 720 — bass-heavy gaming and movies, with spatial audio and head tracking.
• Sony WH-1000XM6 — best if you want top-tier noise cancelling with strong (not exaggerated) bass.
• Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 — bass with a more balanced, audiophile tuning and huge battery life.
• JBL Live 780NC — a solid, comfortable everyday option with punchy bass.
• Heavys H1H — tuned for heavy metal and hard rock, with six drivers.
• Budget picks (E7, Bloydek E7, WH-CH720N, Soundcore Life Q20) — cheap entry points; bass is boosted but detail and build are a step down.
