The best (as rated by audiophiles alike) are the:
*STAX SR-009
*Audez'e LCD-2
*Sennheiser Orpheus
The headphones that are rated the best of 2013 are Dr. Dre ones. This is the popular choice. It does depend on what specific use they are for because obviously the higher priced ones are going to be of a higher audio quality.
The phrase, "best headphones," is very subjective, in the sense that a lot of factors go into headphones. If you care about the loudness/clarity of bass, The Beats by Dr. Dre are without a doubt the best. There is a large range of Beats audio, but the best are The Beats Pro (~400 USD). However, if you care about noise reduction/overall audio quality, I would say that the Bose Quiet Comfort 15 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones (~300 USD) are the best headphones on the market.
There are a lot of companies competing in the noise-cancelling headphones market. Sennheiser and Sony make some of the best models, but Sony often manages to provide similar quality at a lower cost.
