Shure E500PTH review

Shure E500PTH review

The Shure E500PTHs are the crème de la crème of sound-isolating earbuds -- and they certainly look the part. With the noise of the outside world almost completely excluded, the E500PTHs are left to pump music directly, it seems, into your brain, resulting in a sound quality that's nothing short of awesome Read more

Sennheiser IE 8 sound-isolating earphones review

We loved the way the Sennheiser IE 8 sound-isolating earphones added warmth and depth to our broad music collection. With the added bonus of being able to manually adjust the bass, these earphones are more than worthy competitors to the Shure SE530s. Be prepared to have your music rocked Read more

Sennheiser HD 800 review

If huge price tags cause you to suffer nosebleeds, then you may want to ring your local hospital to arrange a blood transfusion before reading this review of the Sennheiser HD 800 headphones.

Sennheiser RS 160 review

The RS 160 wireless headphones aren't exactly cheap, and they lack some of the features sported by similarly priced rivals. But they cut no corners when it comes to sound quality. In fact, they're probably the best-sounding wireless cans we've come across, and they're comfortable too Read more

Klipsch Image One review

The Klipsch Image One headphones are a solid set of cans, offering decent sound quality and good looks. Other headphones in the same price bracket offer slightly better audio, but these are still great all-rounders. Read more

Shure SE310 Sound Isolating Earphones review

Shure's SE series is a new sound-isolating line of earphones that promises to be just as good as the company's top-of-the-range E series. The SE310s have outstanding audio quality -- as you might expect from a £170 pair 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

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

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
