Reviews

  • Apple In-Ear headphones

    If you own a new iPod, the Apple In-Ear headphones are great value. Owners of iPhones and older iPods will have to decide whether the mic and remote compatibility issues are worth overlooking for the substantial boost in sound quality.

  • Sennheiser IE 8

    This pair of sound-isolating earphones is one of our all-time favourites, with explosive bass that dance fans will adore.

  • Klipsch Image X5 headphones

    The Klipsch Image X5 earphones are a bit of an investment, but they're worth it if you demand excellent audio quality and have had trouble with ear bud fit in the past.

  • Philips SHE9850 sound-isolating earphones

    An excellent all-rounder, with good detail, a balanced, warm sound and superb comfort and fit. Deeper bass and brighter treble exists in competing models, but for almost all genres of music and in most listening environments, the SHE9850s will impress and for a good price.

  • Klipsch Custom-3 earphones

    The Custom-3 'phones are bursting with detail, warmth and power, but their design and fit won't suit everyone.

  • Klipsch Image sound-isolating earphones

    The Images are easily the most comfortable earphones we've ever worn, and possibly the most comfortable in the world. But get ready to pony up some serious dosh.

  • Denon AH-C751 sound-isolating earphones

    Don't consider them a choice for your workouts, but for seriously impressive sound quality without being full-sized headphones, the AH-C751s are practically unrivalled.

  • Creative Aurvana in-ear headphones

    If you need lightweight, quality in-ear earphones and don't want to break the bank, check out the Creative Aurvanas, which match up quite well against the Shure E2cs.
