Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 Studio review

There are plenty of in-ear sets out there in the £80 price range that sound excellent, but the Ultimate Ears Super.fi 3 Studio headphones are probably the best -- they have a relatively flat sound, which makes all types of music sound good. The design is based of comfort and simplicity, too, so they're an excellent option all-round Read more

Klipsch Custom 1 sound-isolating earphones review

The Custom 1s are a great pair of entry-level sound-isolating earphones, as long as your music taste plays to their strengths. With a very balanced, flat tone, they're far more suited to unplugged music than electronica or heavy metal. You also get solid build quality for the price, although the fit takes a while to get used to Read more

Shure SE210 sound isolating headphones review

V-moda Vibe review

Headphone maker V-moda may be a newcomer in the digital audio domain, but you wouldn't realise it listening to the company's products. The premium Vibe in-ear headphones are a fashion-forward set that come with a handy small leather pouch and offer a rich, bass-heavy audio response Read more

Monster Beats by Dr Dre headphones review

They may be pricey, but their style is undeniably cool and you'll definitely turn heads. What's more, the Beats perform very well -- the sound quality is phenomenally crisp and they're comfortable to boot. For a pair endorsed by Dr Dre, they're not excessively heavy on the bass either Read more

Sony PFR-V1 headphones review

The Sony PFR-V1 headphones are nothing if not interesting. While they're not initially very visually appealing, they aim to bridge the gap between headphone and speaker sound. Their unique design helps to create a more believable sound stage, especially for classical and acoustic listening Read more

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

AKG K 518 LE review

The K 518 LEs are well worth a look if you're seeking portable earphones that you don't have to jam inside your head. They offer a compact, folding and stylish design, coming in a range of colours. They can make a few songs sound muddy, but their generally solid audio quality means they should appeal to listeners with eclectic taste Read more

Sony MDR-710LP review

Sony has added to its well designed, high-performance headphones lineup with the MDR-710LPs -- light and portable headphones that strike a good balance between style, comfort, performance and value. You'll hear an exceptional amount of detail in your music, but don't expect lashings of velvety warmth Read more
