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

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

Cowon iAudio X5 (30GB) review

On paper, the 30GB, iPod-size X5 has everything that Apple's ice-white wonder does -- including music playback, a photo viewer and on-the-fly playlists -- then it piles on video playback, an FM radio, voice and line-in recording, and even the ability to read and save images directly from a digital camera. But it doesn't have anything to match iTunes Read more

Roth Music Cocoon MC4 review

The Roth Music Cocoon MC4 valve amp for iPods produces smooth sounds that are warm and pleasing. Bass is natural, while cymbals and hi-hats have an organic feel to them. It also comes with plenty of connections for hooking up MP3 players or the TV for video-playing iPods Read more

Klipsch Image X10i review

The sound on the Klipsch Image X10is won't be to everyone's taste, but if you value faithful reproduction and audio clarity over booming bass, these headphones are unlikely to disappoint. Read more

Apple iPod (80GB, video) review

The '5.5-gen' iPod -- wiser and more able than its one-year-old predecessor -- gains many incremental improvements, including a brighter screen and better video battery life, but probably the most appealing aspect is the tantalising price, especially for the 30GB version Read more

Apple iPod touch (3rd gen, 64GB) review

Apple's third-generation iPod touch may lack a camera, but it's the best portable media player that you can currently get your hands on. As well as sporting a number of useful new features, such as voice control, a faster processor means it performs even more smoothly than before Read more

Sony Giga Juke NAS-50HDE review

At £500, Sony's Giga Juke might seem somewhat expensive for a hi-fi, but it can store 40,000 tracks internally, and its great CD player, DAB tuner and fantastic sound quality make it a very appealing option Read more

Creative Zen Vision:M (30GB) review

Though it's not as small as the new iPod, and its interface doesn't trump the Clickwheel, the 30GB Zen Vision:M is a real video player -- while on the iPod, video remains a novelty. It's slightly more expensive than Apple's world-conqueror, but the improved screen and number of video formats available more than make up for it Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-A829 review

Sony's players never fail to win style points, and we're definitely impressed by the classy look of the new Walkman NWZ-A829 music and video player. It blows us away with its stellar audio performance and vivid, bright screen quality, making it one of our favourites Read more
