Open-back headphones will leak sound quite a bit, meaning people around you will be able to hear it. What are your favorite genres? What is your projected use case? Is portability a concern? If they are IEMs, do they need to be workout-safe? Will these headphones take a beating from your everyday use? Do you have an older pair of headphones or IEMs that you really enjoy and would like something similar to them and if so, what are they? Do they need to be wireless?
