iRiver Clix 2 Red Line 8GB review

The successful Clix 2 has now incorporated a red 'go-faster' stripe that adds a stylish touch to an already sleek and sophisticated player. Even better, the Red Line has doubled in capacity -- now an 8GB version -- so videos won't take up too much room in your music library Read more

Sennheiser HD 600 headphones review

The Sennheiser HD 600 headphones provide a high-end experience for a price that's not over the top. Instead of leather, a cloth padding provides an extremely comfortable listening experience. These cans deliver a wide range of the audio spectrum and deliver it well Read more

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

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

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

iRiver Clix 2 review

The Clix 2 -- officially called Clix 2nd Generation -- is the younger brother to the hugely successful and highly rated Clix, and it's so attractive, it actually looks slightly edible. It also offers a huge range of features, beautiful video playback and sumptuous sound -- a winner all round Read more

Philips GoGear Opus review

The GoGear Opus manages to stand out from the crowd of iPod nano rivals by offering some impressive extra features, such as support for the BBC's iPlayer and the ability to record FM radio. The screen isn't great, but sound quality is good and it's a decent media player overall Read more

Intempo Rebel review

The Intempo Rebel gives you all the best elements of FM radio (good sound, free music) with none of the worst (ads, annoying DJs). It samples FM radio stations to convert analogue tunes into digital MP3s, which it then stores on internal memory or a card to playback or copy 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
