Audio Technica ATH-W1000 headphones review

Like their more expensive older siblings, the Audio Technica ATH-W1000s provide an emphasis on brightness and exceptional musical clarity. While they lack some low-end emphasis, these comfortable, closed-back headphones are excellent for reference use in a studio 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

Sony DR-BT50 Bluetooth headphones review

Sony's new DR-BT50s are ultra-stylish headphones aimed at the trendy 20-somethings who want to rock out with their MP3-laden mobile phone. With a built-in microphone, a set of music-player controls and even folder-navigation buttons, the DR-BT50s have potential Read more

Atomic Floyd SuperDarts review

Atomic Floyd's SuperDarts' powerful bass and hot styling will appeal to electronic music fans, but their mid-range tones are underwhelming. Read more

AKG Q 701 review

The AKG Q 701 headphones deliver superb sound quality with a high-end clarity that's all too rare. But we were slightly underwhelmed by their bass response. Read more

Denon AH-C751 sound-isolating earphones review

The Denon AH-C751s are a stonking good pair of earphones. Like their predecessors, they produce beautiful highs and smooth, deep bass, and mids with even more punch. While they're too heavy for the gym, their sound-isolating qualities make them perfect for your commute Read more

Ultimate Ears triple.fi 10 Headphones review

If you're searching for stellar-sounding in-ear headphones from a reliable, high-quality brand, the Ultimate Ears triple.fi 10 earphones fit the bill -- just make sure the gigantic earbuds fit in your ears. With three balanced armatures in each ear piece, the buds are large and potentially uncomfortable for the smaller-eared among us Read more

V-Moda Bass Freq headphones review

V-moda's Bass Freq headphones come in a range of eight bright colours, making them stand out from the crowd of drab headphones currently found on the market. As their name suggests they're heavy on the bass, and priced at around £30 they won't put a huge hole in your wallet Read more

Bose QuietComfort 3 review

Bose's luxuriously designed QuietComfort models have set the standard for premium noise-cancelling headphones. The QuietComfort 3s are significantly smaller than their predecessors, and they feature an on-ear design rather than the over-the-ear format of the QuietComfort 2s. They also usefully come with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery Read more

Klipsch Image X5 earphones review

Superbly compact, extremely comfortable and delivering excellent all-round audio quality, we prefer the sound-isolating X5s to their more costly X10 predecessors. Although rivals can offer even deeper bass, these are some of Klipsch's best earphones to date Read more
