Monster Beats by Dr Dre Pro review

The Monster Beats by Dr Dre Pros aren't the audiophile-grade cans the price tag would have you believe, and there are a few design niggles. Still, it's a long time since we've had so much fun with a set of headphones. Read more

House of Marley Destiny TTR review

The Destiny TTR won't satisfy hardcore audiophiles, but they deliver a powerful, rich, bass-oriented sound that we absolutely love. Read more

Grado RS-2 Reference Series review

The RS-2s' handcrafted wooden parts are specially cured over many production steps to perfect the 'Grado sound'. Other top-notch components include oxygen-free copper cables and high-power neodymium magnets. This adds up to the best headphones we've ever heard -- but they're insanely, eye-wateringly expensive Read more

Ultimate Ears triple.fi 10 Headphones review

If you're searching for stellar-sounding in-ear headphones from a reliable, high-quality brand, the Ultimate Ears triple.fi 10 earphones fit the bill -- just make sure the gigantic earbuds fit in your ears. With three balanced armatures in each ear piece, the buds are large and potentially uncomfortable for the smaller-eared among us Read more

Bose QuietComfort 15 review

The QuietComfort 15s are no bargain, but they're ludicrously comfortable, and deliver the best sound quality that we've heard so far from noise-cancelling headphones. In fact, the level of detail that they offer may inspire you to relisten to your entire music library Read more

Klipsch Image sound-isolating earphones review

The Klipsch Image sound-isolating earphones could be the most comfortable pair of 'phones in the world. Say goodbye to 'ear fatigue' and hello to compact comfort. The Images aren't light on sound, though, with plenty of isolation and a well-balanced, warm voice Read more

AKG Q 701 review

The AKG Q 701 headphones deliver superb sound quality with a high-end clarity that's all too rare. But we were slightly underwhelmed by their bass response. Read more

Sony MDR-NC500D review

The over-the-ear MDR-NC500Ds are, according to Sony, the world's first digital noise-cancelling headphones. Lightweight and extremely comfortable, they certainly provide the best noise-cancelling experience we've had to date. We just wish the bass response was better Read more

Klipsch Image X10 review

The tiny Image X10 headphones carry a hefty price tag, but they're super-comfortable, do a good job of blocking out external noise, and offer excellent sound quality, with plenty of bass. If you're willing to fork out the required dosh, we doubt you'll be disappointed Read more
