David and David tell you about the best on-ear headphones of 2021. This is a follow-up video to one we recorded in January. We read your comments and added several new pairs of headphones, including the Marshall Major IV, JBL Tune660NC, and AKG Y45 BT.
To our surprise, some of our least favorite on-ear headphones from January catapulted to the top in our rankings, while most of the newcomers failed to impress.
