Blue Microphones Mikey review

It may not have all the features we'd like, but recordings from the Mikey sound better than those of any other iPod recorder in its price range. In fact, even some more expensive rivals can't match the realism and detail of its recordings. Add in a pleasingly retro design, and you've got a winner Read more

Two massive earcups shelter your fragile lugs, and a soft velvety coating keep these massive cans comfy atop your discerning bonce. The Sennheiser HD 595s welcome you to the world of high-end headphones, without requiring a bank heist to pay for them. Their open-back design may make you less than popular, however Read more

Sennheiser CX 400 sound-isolating earphones review

You can spend hundreds of pounds on earphones, but if you're looking for a decent upgrade without spending loads of dosh, you could spend less than £40 on these comfortable, quality Sennheiser CX 400s. Good all-'rounders, these 'phones could suit your needs down to the ground Read more

Sony NWZ-E436F Walkman review

It can't be avoided: any new MP3 player is in direct competition with the Apple iPod, and manufacturers are well aware of this fact. The Sony E-Series Walkman is just as easy to use as the iPod nano, offers a similar array of features and delivers great sound quality -- but costs less Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-X1060 (X series) review

Expensive it may be, but the Sony Walkman NWZ-X1060 offers some distinct advantages over its rivals. With its effective on-board noise-cancelling technology, great OLED touchscreen and truly excellent audio quality, the question is: can it dethrone the iPod touch? Read more

Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 review

The stylish Bowers & Wilkins MM-1 PC speakers produce stellar audio that's out of all proportion to their tiny size. They're not particularly portable and they're very expensive, but the MM-1s are the best speakers of their type that we've heard. You can use them with an MP3 player or smart phone too Read more

Cowon iAudio U3 (2GB) review

The U3 features a dazzling, albeit tiny (just 30mm across), colour screen and video playback capabilities -- amazing for a player of this size. It sounds great, too. However, it's only £20 less than a 30GB video iPod and you can't use it with subscription services 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
