Denon AH-D5000 headphones review
Quite simply, the Denon AH-D5000 blew us away. Although they are encased in mahogany, this set of cans is surprisingly light. More importantly, listening to music through these headphones is like an orgy for your ears, but are you ready for this calibre of sound? 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

Shure SE530 noise-isolating headphones review
If you're obsessive about music you owe your ears Shure's SE530 noise-cancelling headphones. They may cost £330, but they're worth every penny -- they make every other pair of earbuds seem vastly inferior Read more

Denon AH-D7000 headphones review
These Denon AH-D7000s are the most exciting headphones of the year, and they've trumped our previous favourites, the D5000s. At £800 they're very expensive, but they also provide excellent sound quality with rock, folk, acoustic, electronic and metal alike Read more

Sennheiser IE 7 sound-isolating earphones review
If you read our reviews, you'll know that as far as mid-range sound-isolating earphones go, we have a soft spot for the Klipsch Custom-3s. Well, now we have been introduced to the Sennheiser IE 7s, and boy are they giving the Klipsches a run for their money. The IE 7s are reasonably-priced, superb all-rounders 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
