Yes, thank you very much Though, those ones seem wired, does that improve sound quality, or is it just to plug it into an interface?

Ah, then it could also be the HD400S i.e. the wired version of the BT450 afaik.

Cable connection is certainly better in terms of latency, but modern Bluetooth codecs like LDAC or AptX HD are very good quality wise and virtually indistinguishable from a wired connection.

In terms of audio quality there’s no meaningful difference, but sometimes there is an EQ difference if the headphone has built in DSP, which is bypassed in wired mode. The Focal Bathys is an exception to that, it routes sound through its DSP even in wired mode (and as a result, consumes battery even in wired mode).
