Do you have any suggestions for good wired headphones?

Also, follow your topics.

 

It depends on what kind of music you listen to and what you will be using them for.

I have never bought a pair of expensive headphones personally - I use my JVC HA-RX300 when I'm indoors and an unknown brand of chinese bluetooth headphones. I can tell absolutely no difference between the two. Both cost me under £15 GBP.

 

*BUT* When getting bluetooth headphones (or any headphones for that matter) make sure the device that you're streaming the music from is capable of processing a wide range of frequencies. Let me explain this more. I tried both my JVC headphones and Bluetooth headphones on my Samsung device - very powerful bass and lyrics as crisp as they'll get at 320Kbits/s. Played the song back over another cheaper mobile device and the difference was very noticeable - very flat bass and a lot of emphasis on the high-end(particularly the lyrics) The equaliser on the cheaper device did little justice either.

I then tried the same setup on my Windows PC (Yes, Windows supports bluetooth headphones too!) which showed a considerable improvement over the Samsung device, being able to push even more bass through my Bluetooth headphones without them spluttering. The on-board Realtek card crapped out when trying my JVCs.

 

Make sure the device you'll be listening to your music from is decent - ie does not have crappy audio processing

Buy headphones from trusted manufacturers - if you're buying online, check reviews to make sure the headphones frequency response range match your taste of music

 

I am no expert in audio whatsoever so take what I say as a grain of salt

It's completely blown out of proportion. Also if you're the least bit worried about data gathering then you should go live in a cave a 1000Km from the nearest establishment simply because every device and every entity gathers information these days. In the current era privacy is just fallacy and nothing more.
