Shure SE535 review

The SE535s are the best sound-isolating earphones we've ever heard, but one glimpse of their price tag may cause your wallet to spontaneously combust. If you're an audiophile, you should check them out, since they may well help you to discover sounds in your songs that you never knew were there Read more

Klipsch Image S3 review

The Klipsch Image S3s are a fantastic option if you want to upgrade from the abysmal earphones that are bundled with most MP3 players. They sound good, feel comfortable and won't break the bank. Read more

Klipsch ProMedia In-Ear review

The Klipsch ProMedia In-Ear earphones are a worthy option, thanks to their precise sound, comfortable design and handy microphone. If you're a fan of thumping bass, though, look elsewhere. Read more

Monster Diddybeats review

The Monster Diddybeats earbuds offer brilliant sound quality, and notably punchy bass. They're quite heavy, though, so you might struggle to keep these audacious 'buds inside your ears. Read more

Sleek Audio SA6 wireless earphones review

The SA6 wireless earphones are lightweight and comfortable. They can also be plugged into a traditional headphone cable for wired use, which is fortunate, as wireless reception when on the move isn't perfect. Nevertheless, the SA6s remain fantastic performers, especially with acoustic, vocal and softer music Read more

Shure SE115m+ review

There's not a great deal wrong with these Shure SE115m+ headphones. They hardly blow us away, but if you've just bought an iPhone or iPod and are looking for a sonic upgrade, these should serve you well. Read more

Monster Powerbeats by Dr Dre review

If you're after a sporty, cool set of earphones for your workouts, the Monster Powerbeats by Dr Dre earbuds will be a good bet. But they're expensive and, because they don't isolate outside noise, you won't get the signature bassy Beats sound. Read more

Sony MDR-NC100D review

The Sony MDR-NC100D earphones have an unusual design and actively filter out ambient noise. Sadly, they're let down by their sound quality. Read more
