Cambridge Audio Melomania 1

I'm looking to get a set of over-ear headphones for home listening after getting some nice wireless earbuds (Cambridge Audio Melomania 1s) recently. I owned a pair of Audiotechnica M40x while I was at university but they got broken and I never got around to replacing them. I really liked the flat sound and they were noticeably better than any cheap earphones I had worn before.

For $130, Cambridge Audio's Melomania 1 sit right in the middle, delivering relatively accurate audio and strong battery life. They just happen to have a lot of competition. The true wireless Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 earphones deliver a strong sonic experience for a reasonable price

I purchased the Melomania 1+, they broke after one week and after months of getting no help from customer service I left the review below. A few hours later I got an email saying "Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website guidelines. Thanks for sharing, and we hope to publish next time!". ​.

On the downside, their battery performance falls short of their advertised claims, and their mic has a sub-par recording quality. .

______. MELOMANIA 1 [BT5.0 - SBC, AAC, AptX].

Plus, you're right: An over-ear headphone could get mighty sweaty during the summer depending on your location. I recommend an in-ear earbud with properly fitting silicone or foam tips. That will give you better portability, less heat and the correct balance between ear seal and safety. Suggestions for less than $100 for your preferred genres: Helm Audio Truly Wireless 5.0 ($99 at Amazon), Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 ($99 at Amazon) or Lypertek Tevi ($79 at Amazon).
