Grundig DAB+ Micro System

For audiophiles on a budget, Grundig has released its first DAB+ Micro System, which the company is claiming is also one of the first speakers in Australia to combine digital radio in a Micro system.
Sennheiser PX 100-II

The Sennheiser PX 100-II is a very good, stylish set of headphones that will nevertheless live in the shadow of the excellent original.
Sony Walkman B Series (NWZ-B143F)

It has none of the elegance of the iPod Shuffle, but it's cheaper and has a built-in screen, FM radio and recording capabilities. Minor concerns aside, the NWZ-B142F is a good performer with an attractive price tag.
Creative Zen MX

Creative's latest player may have some drawbacks, but it still is a strong contender that provides great value for money.
Sennheiser PXC 310 headset

Noise-cancelling headphones are a necessity for any frequent flyer, and if you have the money, the PXC 310 is an excellent example of what you'll need.
Sennheiser HD 438

The HD 438 just falls shy of a fully immersive audio experience, but these mid-range headphones are very comfortable for the home listener.
Philips GoGear Mix (4GB)

The GoGear Mix is exactly what people are looking for in an MP3 player. It's easy to load with music, simple to operate and a pleasure to listen to.
Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

The GoGear Aria may be cheaper than a comparable iPod Nano, but it's leagues behind in terms of quality.
