I am a basic user, I only use headphones to listen to music and watch movies, I have bought wireless headphones up to 30 euros (I know they are very cheap) the problem is that all the headphones hurt me, the headband headphones are very uncomfortable for me, I have bought many wireless headphones but for some reason they all sound very bad for me, I have a sony MDR-E9LP headphones and they are fantastic for me, they sound very good, but I bought the xiaomi bus 4 lite and I have the feeling that they sound worse than the sony headphones of 5 euros, in addition, the xiaomi have a delay in the audio and it is impossible to play or watch movies, is it just my feeling or the MDR-E9LP sound better?

For most people, a decent pair of wireless earphones/headphones from companies like Sony, bose, sennheiser, etc. in the $200-$500 price range will be the perfect mix of quality, convenience, and price. Obviously, if quality is of the utmost importance, more pricy options from even better brands, that have much better DACs and sound systems exist, so if you're really wanting quality you can explore that route. That said, those options are for the much more extreme audiophiles. For every day use, I personally think those options are overkill. That said, I would never buy anything in the $30ish price range, you are almost guaranteed to get something that sounds and operates like trash.

I just want to listen to music and watch movies, do you recommend some wired headphones? I can spend 60€. Thank you for the help ^^
