Shure SE425 review
The Shure SE425s offer great sound quality, and the detachable cable could save you some hassle. There are a few sonic niggles though, and if you can stretch to it, the Shure SE535s offer better sound quality. Read more

Sennheiser OCX 880 review
Not everyone will like the design of the OCX 880 earbuds, due to the rubber loops that fit around your lugholes. But we reckon pretty much everyone will like their audio quality. You'll be hard-pressed to get better sound reproduction for under £100 Read more

AKG K 601 review
AKG's K 601 headphones feature large, comfortable cushions and a leather and metal headband. Users can enjoy bigger sound and precisely focused stereo left-to-right positioning, but a bulky design and poor performance with MP3 players means that the K 601s are better for home use Read more

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

The entry-level model in Sennheiser's IE range, the IE 6s are a cracking pair of earphones, with a warm sound and a voice suitable for pretty much any kind of music. Available at under £100, they're also sensibly priced compared to the competition Read more
