Reviews

  • 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.

  • Sennheiser CX 400 sound-isolating earphones

    A stunning set of earphones with great bundled accessories and sound quality to utterly destroy the 'phones that came with your MP3 player.

  • Cygnett GrooveZone headphones

    Mmm, shiny: Cygnett's gleaming noise-isolating headphones are a little flimsy but deliver solid audio.

  • Shure E4c headphones

    Shure's E4c earbuds are simply the best in-ear headphones we've ever heard.

  • Shure E3c Headphones

    The E3c is an audiophile's delight, just don't expect Earth-shattering bass.

  • JVC HA-NCX77

    The JVC HA-NCX77 noise canceling earbuds inspire little complaint. Good sound quality, useful extras, and a relatively low price point make them a fine option for commuters and frequent fliers.

  • V-moda Vibe

    The V-moda Vibe headphones are a great option for style-conscious bass-addicts looking for some worthy portable headphones.

  • Bose TriPort In-Ear Headphones

    The Bose In-Ear Headphones are a hybrid set, falling right between regular earbuds and canalphones. They don't block out noise, but they do provide much more bass than stock earbuds -- almost too much, in fact.
