If you don't like the idea of paying $350 to $500 for a set of flagship headphones, Anker's Soundcore line offers a lot of performance at much lower prices. Over the years, the company has refined its formula by balancing sound and features in various packages so as to compete with the likes of Apple, Bose, Sony and Sennheiser. With the Space 2 Pro, Anker put its new Thus audio chip in headphones for the first time, making lofty claims about the upgraded voice clarity as a result. At $200, these aren't just an affordable alternative to the big names in headphones, they're a worthy contender in their own right.
