I have used several pairs of both wired and wireless headphones and will walk you through a few of the big pros and cons of each to help you make a well-informed decision.

Wired headphones are always the winner for me. The same goes for computer mice. I think my preference is because I don't like replacing batteries or having to recharge them now and then.

Most of my music is only 256kbps bit rate and that's perfect for wireless but I do have about 200 songs that are .AIFF and have 1411 kbps bit rate which blue-tooth may struggle to transfer.

There definitely a lot of positives to having wireless headphones but just my personal preference.

For general music enjoyment when I'm not in my car, I prefer to use my wireless Bose QC-35 headset, but when I want to "listen" to music I prefer my wired Audio-Technica ATH-M40x headset. So which headphones should I get? The answer is both wired and wireless...

Wired?...what's that? Must be a trick question up there with what's a washboard, or a light bulb with a string attached to it, or maybe when I was the TV remote control....LOL .
All jokes aside. Go with wireless and thank me later.

I have bought dozens of wired headphones and they all entangled only to render earbuds useless. I prefer wireless.
