Bowers & Wilkins P5 review

If you're looking for a high-end set of headphones to wear out and about, the P5s will prove well worth a look. They're pricey, but they offer fantastic sound quality, an appealing design and sturdy construction, as well as a useful in-cable remote control for iPods and the iPhone 3GS Read more

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

Sony MDR-570LP review

While the MDR-570LP headphones don't offer the best audio quality we've ever heard, you'll be hard-pressed to beat it at the same price. They're also stylish, well made, and keep a good grip on your bonce. Other than a slightly short cable, there's very little to complain about 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

Monster Beats by Dr Dre Pro review

The Monster Beats by Dr Dre Pros aren't the audiophile-grade cans the price tag would have you believe, and there are a few design niggles. Still, it's a long time since we've had so much fun with a set of headphones. Read more

Monster Beats by Dr Dre Beatbox review

The Monster Beats by Dr Dre Beatbox speaker dock for the iPhone and iPod sings from the same hymn sheet as its bass-heavy headphone cousins. But it's no choirboy -- expect skull-rattling bass, and a bold, brash sound. The Beatbox is sure to get the party started. Read more

Philips Fidelio Primo DS9000 review

The Philips Fidelio Primo DS9000 offers great sound quality and a pleasing design, even if it does have a few sonic quirks. It's no better than the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin iPod speaker, but it's worthy competition. Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-E453 review

The Sony Walkman NWZ-E453 isn't quite as slick or good-looking as its iPod rivals, but its simplicity, affordability and portability make it a worthy competitor none the less. Overall, it's a winner. Read more

Sennheiser OCX 880 review

Not everyone will like the design of the OCX 880 earbuds, due to the rubber loops that fit around your lugholes. But we reckon pretty much everyone will like their audio quality. You'll be hard-pressed to get better sound reproduction for under £100 Read more
