Grado SR60i headphone review

Grado SR60i headphone Grado headphones have been a long time and some of the models in the catalog are a significant part of the history of the company. Only once in a while 'time something has changed, however, and recently the company has "improved" version of the classic model SR60 - hence the "i" suffix.


The long start-hours model sports a new driver diaphragm, and slightly revised housing, to reduce the transient distortion. It also has a new design of the foam Earp, comfort is improved immediately.


Like all Grado headphones open back is a model based on the back ventilation of the diaphragm to reduce the frequency of resonance and low gravity, for clarity and extended bass.


At the top end of the spectrum, control of distortion and feedback has been the design of the membrane itself, and, to this end, a degree of de-emphasizing "the diaphragm.


The engine uses high-purity diaphragm, neodymium magnets and copper and the impedance of 32 ohms makes this model suitable for home and mobile use - will not be as strong as most boys in the ear with a portable reader, but the fulfillment of the requirements yet to be reached in May.


The usual combination of plug-in 3.5 mm and 6.3 mm jack adapter, gold is, of course. Degree of simple habit is still with his head, though it seems a little 'more convenient for us to age.


The cable is very soft and flexible, and we are pleased to announce that almost no noise from friction as rubs against skin or clothing.


Sound quality
In many ways this is a great capability for the earphones. It 'very enlightening and is one of the most beautiful tonal balance, which we heard in this price category. Headsets often sound a little 'get used to something does not vary according to the ears of every listener, but in general, this model has a large neutral mids and a good bassist, but not too extended emphasized.


Heights is a po 'black, with some exaggeration of the area in which they are sibilant voice. This makes the noise is stronger, but it is noteworthy that the models in this competition show much effect. Grado GS1000 precisely to avoid, but at ten times the price!


These are all the details, however. In musical terms, this is a model of success, which is equally at home in rock, without voice, piano and orchestra. A happy gift of music through the message in a way to forget all the strengths and weaknesses.


Almost the only record we have tried to wish us a 'more of a vision is very difficult for violin and piano in which the instruments seem slightly mixed. However, also known as a disco dance tracks all night from Mavericks have been exposed in detail and with a good rhythm and unity.


The most successful of all was the choral music, as many here Cuffie trip, the concentration of the vote and lose the focus. Revelle SR60i but not that good and gave us some of the best images from the depths far below, we have high-end models.


We are pleased with the changes made to Grado. It offers a very respectable an important model for the leg, so that there is a strong recommendation in its category.

Radiopaque Custom Tuned headphones Review

Radiopaque Custom Tuned headphones  What color is the sea? A strange question to start a review, headphones, but you soon see where we are with this. You see, on a good day, the sea is green or blue, gray or a bad coffee, and that before you begin to see what kind of green or blue. Difficult is not it? Now the question on their headphones and begin to wonder if the sound of a universal solution is the best option available.
This is the condition for its Radiopaq headphones. Instead of a unique sound match that offer, Radiopaq has four different types of headphones for different types of music. That is all, apparently, about the election.


Instead of a choice of four, especially for those who listen to pop music, classical, rock and jazz. Every music has its own sound, something like headphones Radiopaq tried to stress, and the balance of certain sounds of music.

Radiopaque Custom Tuned headphones
Radiopaq that skirt is a warm sound, with tight control low, while the rhythm of jazz, rhythm and sound perfectly restored. Classic promises 25% more detail in the high bandwidth of standard headphones Pop, while his voice strong, full of up to 30% more midrange. "


In practice, this means that all the jazz band headphones is down all the fluff and give you a clean sound, as if it were in the bar to listen to his appointment as Coltrane. The skirt is rounded Bassier tender offers to try the guitars and drums. Pop is "Poppy" with the bass and treble tones represent Classic and the offer is a 'weak bottom.


Currently, the collection of differences is a kind of challenge, but sound different. Well, not so long with a clear difference between rock and pop, which is composed and classical and jazz, which is at the other end of the scale. In addition, and agreed that they prefer the sound is a challenge all its own.
To help, we have focused our solution for the love supreme John Coltrane EP for the Jazz-headphones, Cathy Dennis "all night moving in this album of pop-(Old Skool to know), the result of Michael Nyman, the film Gattaca and Johnny Cash Hurt is the rock. Moreover, we also tested the headphones on a number of other songs, but when we felt the majority.


The low at the beginning of the resolution was the easiest to identify when one of the four headsets. Personally, I liked the jazz-rock, followed by ear headphones offer here, the Jazz are set for a clean sound, but then maybe prefer the weaker or nervous Pop Classic offers more security.


It 'hard to make the choice. Even more difficult, as you probably have a selection of music in your collection. Radiopaq informs us that the idea is to discuss the need for equality in the digital music player, the moods of these headphones. Every game has been optimized and built for a different kind of sound. Although different types of music from your collection, you may prefer the sound of rock in general, and thus probably suitable rock headphones.


Skip slight differences in the sound and see that good headphones, especially for the price of £ 50 The cable is long enough for most and the default is hearing things. There are several outbreaks in the table to the ears (more options), but they are all standard dome, but as those who seem to offer Christmas trees that are found in groups of foam or Shure Sennheiser offers in the fields.

JayBird Endorphin Rush Athletic Headphones Review

JayBird Endorphin Rush Athletic Headphones Jaybird a name for himself as a Bluetooth-company, providing a set of stereo headphones with a discreet but assured that the projects were presented with the iPod in mind. So it was surprising and not so much if the company elected to enter the cable market with two in-ear models to determine the adequacy of mentality. What is surprising is the apparent step backward in technology, but in reality it was a step in line with jaybird focus on active users. Between the two new series, the endorphin Rush Athletic headphones ($ 99) are slightly more expensive and less elegant of the two.


If this is a matter of endorphins headphones that come from packaging, is the duration. The cable is very gruesa y de la deslizador has a Y enredos avoid that can conducir a la Rotura de cable de estrés y con el tiempo, y que en un enchufe Termiņa reforzado L-Resistive que parece apto para la prueba del tiempo. Jaybird a hinged, hard face on the package, so you can protect your investment, unless you use headphones. Moreover, there is a wire to wrap the cable in a perfect relax.


Jaybird is not everything. The box also contains a series of removable clip and seven series eartips in a variety of sizes and structures, including a double and a triple-flange flange (deeper behind the ears). Both elements are in place to ensure that all places of safety - an important aspect for the "sport" headphones. It should be noted, however, that the headphones are quite large and bulbous, but the ear is to be taken into consideration, can not fit comfortably. If you are a good shape, but these 'phones offer a good sound insulation, so that, taking into account the runners outdoors: This is more for the gym.


Another important aspect is, of course, the sound quality, and the endorphin Rush jaybird headphones seem to be global. We note that some songs have a tendency to sound hollow and not in heat, but that was no problem - at least not enough to deduct points. The excursions were not as tinkly like us, and had a tendency to roll, but not so much that I do not recommend this series for 99 U. S. Dollar. The highlight is the bottom, and covers the superthumpy. The depth of the bottom end is really impressive for headphones this size. Hip-hop and electronica are real stars on the tests, but that will not lead to an expansion of public multi-genre, such as endorphins. Indeed, another advantage for some people is that these headphones require very little energy per unit, in the sense of headphone amplifier can be less (we listened to music for about 10 percent lower than those with the Klipsch Image S4).


Ultimately, the jaybird endorphin Rush headphones are a solid buy in the price range of $ 100, especially for active people, thanks to its super-secure fit. (But is not the best option for hikers and skiers because of road noise insulation.) Bass addicts will be very satisfied with the amount of thrust offered.

Grado PS1000 The Best Headphones

Grado PS1000 The Grado PS1000 is the alleged “best headphone Grado has ever produced." That’s a hefty statement from Grado, and it’s no surprise – these puppies aren’t cheap. However, if we didn’t deem them to be worth the cost, they wouldn’t be on our website. Always a fan of the GS1000’s, I was ecstatic to try the PS1000’s hot off the belt. I must admit I was a bit skeptical about their claims that the PS1000’s are better than the GS model, because I’m a major fan of those, but wow – the Grado PS1000 phones emit a sound that is absolutely seductive in its quality. Music, even music of the punk or hard rock variety, sounds velvety smooth. You’ll pick up on musical notes you’ve never heard before, even in the most familiar tunes.


Consistent with Grado’s trademark space age appearance, the PS1000’s have the familiar gigantic cushy ear pads. Audiophiles generally enjoy this feature; style slaves typically do not. Then again, people more concerned with style than sound probably run for the hills after one glance at the steep price tag. These comfortable ear pieces actually play a role in performance. They hold the speakers further away from your ears, creating a sound stage that allows for actual surround sound. They have a combination metal alloy outer housing and wood inner housing for low resonance and vibration – in human speak this means they eliminate factors that could destroy the sound. I get chills every time I slip them on. The spouse is starting to get a little jealous. It’s ok though, our couch is comfortable...yeah...

Grado PS1000 box Grado PS1000 box
The bad? Must I? I suppose I have to find something negative about them. They are a bit bulky, a somewhat obtrusive characteristic for people with smaller heads. However, when you’re entering musical Nirvana (perhaps listening to Nirvana?) this feature ceases to be a nuisance. These headphones were designed with the true, blue audiophile in mind, and every last detail caters to those needs. Are they for everyone? Not necessarily - this is a lot of money to pay for headphones if you don't appreciate and understand all the features. However, for the audiophile in search of the perfect pair of headphones, the Grado PS1000 headphones are the Holy Grail of audio equipment.

 

*UPDATE*
This is the information we have gathered so far, some official, straight from Gradolabs.com and others are from secondary sources, i.e. dealers.


First the things we know-
• A new flagship can is being released by Grado being called the PS1000.
• It will be a hybrid. The exterior housing is metal but the interior housing is wood.
• Pre-Orders are being accepted by Todd -TTVJ
• The entire Grado line has been changed and “i =improved ”
• The Wooden Grado Box is returning at the cost of $75 + shipping.

 

• Cost is $1695

Altec Lansing BackBeat 903 Bluetooth headphones Review

Altec Lansing BackBeat 903 Bluetooth headphonesWe all want to get rid of the wires when it comes to music on the road, but the  Altec Lansing Backbeat 903 Bluetooth headphones how to do this? We have come to listen and talk to find out.


While these wireless headsets are inclined in the music lover in you, it is important to note that the headset and the phone manufacturer Altec Lansing Plantronics. As you can imagine much of this technology can be found here at Backbeat 903s.


Out of the box and the headphones and you get a simple USB charger (not micro mini). Headphones with a headset in the ear canal of silicon, and thus receive large units will depend on both ears. Glass is not liable to be happy. Both headsets have a thickness of about cable fits the back of the neck.


The headphones are very discreet and not only when it comes to design. On the right side has a button, Play / Pause, and then a multi-functional switch, the band, back and forth and jump the tracks, depending on how. In the accident, there is a call / end call button, so you can answer a call when you use wireless headsets for mobile phones without diving into a bag. All the buttons are easy to manage the transition is not surprisingly difficult to tackle.
The last element of the project is that the height of the ear of settlement, presumably for people with big ears (who would have thought).


Press "ON" button for the first time and was asked to pair with any Bluetooth device that is above and around. We opted for a BlackBerry Bold and within seconds we were up and running.


Provided that you have a device enabled with A2DP (stereo Bluetooth) and then was fine and dandy. Those who can not opt for a 'more expensive Backbeat 906, in conjunction with a key that can connect your MP3 player (iPod for example) through the headphone jack, so you can experience the magic there.


Once connected, you can make your heart desires, provided they do not deviate more than 10 meters (30 feet) away from the source device. Of course, most of the phone in your pocket or on the desktop, but it also means that if you have a Hi-Fi, Bluetooth, you can sit on the sofa and know you're in the area.


If connected to the mobile phone rings music stops, you get a warning beep and you can call. When you are finished with the music again. Who has spoken to the headset through loud and clear with a complaint that does not sound cool as a package (usually the headset is rubbish).


Battery life is already in 7 hours and up to now, so we managed to live up to that claim.


Disadvantages? Now there are some, especially in design and style of headphones: it is not just sexy. Yes, I am comfortable and do not refer to a term, but it will be like an extra from Star Wars Empire Strikes Back (The type of fog in the city, but not so difficult) or some Stargate.


If it is not style, is the design. We found that surround the cable uncomfortable when wearing a shirt, just because it is fairly low at the top of our series. Perhaps not using a T-shirt (with the children and all that) but there is something to consider if this is the kind of person you are.

Phiaton Primal PS 200 Headphone Review

Nothing says quality at first glance like the metal, and the use of many PS 200 The conductor cylindrical aluminum housing has been crushed - much on the outside, then tapered thin plastic, which is in the ear of the silicon tips. The exterior is a black piece of plastic in the form of a turbine eng. A small metal along the west side, where the cable. The whole package is very strong, and to some extent.

image


Despite the use of metal objects, the headphones are still relatively easy, and operates the cable resistance, without being too heavy. A plastic slider allows the cable to each ear splitting.


Phiaton offers three types of ear tips in PS-200: small, medium and large. All three use the same rounded shape hive. We've found that fit comfortably, with ambient noise seal very well, and felt relatively comfortable for a long time of listening. But our large, medium sized ears fit perfectly in small batches, we must ask whether listeners with small ears had some difficulty in finding the right format.


PS 200 Primal Phiaton During the event complained Phiaton Modern MS400 provides its headsets, including the case of PS 200 is one of the best in the industry. True to the series Primal style pocket format is enabled wrapped in black leather with false rigid sewing, and coated with black velvet. A strong magnet holds the lid closed higher authority, which opens to a block of plastic storage segmented. Delete the elements in the silicon ear tips, an airplane adapter, and headphones that are perfect in and then wrap around the outside, and also a notch to prevent fray. In short, these guys thought of everything. It may be the case in most, but to protect his $ 249 investment than any you've ever seen and use before.

 

Testing
Since each EarBud is basically like a giant cone (and has a clearly marked with an L or R), the PS 200 is easy to pop into your ears and sat down, without a lot of finagling. They sit very superficial in the ear compared to other species, so that they are comfortable, but not as reliable as some models of use "on the fly."


Unlike most low-end headphones, the PS 200 with a dual-driver, with the different drivers for different frequencies in the same manner as in a full-size speakers. In theory, so that a better response because every driver can more closely to a particular area.


The results show clearly at the top, which sounded Phiatons airy, transparent and comprehensive solution. Also conveniently stacked in comparison to other headsets and stellar quality over the ear headphones. With the PS-200, we heard the old songs they have not heard before, and by the clear voice on some issues, such as the singers were in the same room.


But the bass, not very bright, like the brightness of a number of other models, specifically to replace what is lost, often in the headset, such as the Klipsch Image S4. Even after playing with the equalizer, are very difficult, under PS 200 coax. It can not be outrageous by any means, but also for the music is about - and the price of these things - the 200 hp is not very difficult to drive.

Conclusion
Top Industrial Design, where a perfect fit and healthy all the recommended maximum PS-200. But how much high-end audio equipment, be aware that the price is definitely overshadowed strictly the quality of the sound. In addition, we are after Bowler, by a little more authority to the price. PS 200 to recommend to the style, but pointed out that the discerning music lovers have a few models in this price category first ruling on the PS-200.

AIAIAI Y-com Headphone Review

There is a decrease in love with the look of the S-com, or hatred. Cable color purple, aquamarine and thick accents glad all pulled back in early 1990, but as the popularity of Retro Air Jordan and other relics from that time show is not necessarily a bad thing. Black and chrome held incognito in a subway, but if you try to create a fashion statement, with the choice of audio devices, P-Com, surely says something. Of course, if you are less adventurous, with a black Aiaiai Tamer, too.

The unusual strength of the wire of these units makes these outbreaks are more durable than the average Featherweight, with most MP3 players, but also makes them heavier. Aiaiai recommends the strings go over the ear for the support that prevents them get their ears pulled by the weight, but is not yet in a position to meet the strong influence of everything jumps around when the cable continued. Of course, not to recommend its implementation, especially in the big map and makes it impossible for when the cable, as do many other headphones with a small slider.

 
AIAIAI Y-com Headphone The packaging of the headphones with the creativity of their headphones: They come in a transparent acrylic pipe with caps at the ends, acting as storage areas for at least five different types of interchangeable ear tips. Out of the box, the phones are equipped with memory foam yellow tips, while the other four groups of clear silicon tips in different sizes (with two more). The foam indications that a decent job of sealing the sound, but too much pressure on our ears in the long-term comfort. We have tried all the others and find the perfect medium size, although all had a tendency to squash plastic, when you're in the ear, and I still fail to meet the convenience of some of our favorite headsets, Klipsch Image S4 .

E-com Aiaiai Aftermarket performance Headphone Y-Com through her steps with some of our favorite songs, we were immediately impressed by the relatively low offer. Down Low, managing a respectable roar of their size. However, at higher frequencies, the S-Com, the clarity and the lack of some details, especially in voice frequency. Singers seemed to be buried in the noise of half a dozen instruments in rock songs, but as boring as some of our favorites from our mobile phones, like the Grado SR60 Prestige excellent, and the Klipsch Image S4. Percussion instruments, as well as light meals not higher. Equalizer settings have helped us a little, "a solid pair of decent phones that only appears to lack any nuance.


As a phone headphones, the microphone to Y-Com is working admirably, if ever so slightly dull on the receiver. How many headphones with microphone, speak with your ears closed, it's hard to say how much we speak, so you want to pop the left ear bud to talk.
AIAIAI Y-com Headphone

Conclusion
DKK 450 for the price of Y-Com (approx. $ 82 USD), one can not compare with the $ 80 Klipsch Image S4, the edges of the buds on the Danish sound quality. But for those digging rhythm style Y-Com, there are substitutes that can be exactly the same screen, and microphone, without doubt, is a nice addition to the phone listening to music, too.

Aiaiai Pipe headphones Review

How Y-Com, squiggled pipe comes in a clear acrylic tube seems to fit that of the tire tube on the local banking sector. The ends of each hole is filled by the addition of silicone-gel ear for a total of four different sizes: small, medium, large, and a further Bizzaro shape, like a child from the pacifier. Perhaps only to rave complaint - that the couple does not hold the phone in our ears.


Aiaiai Pipe headphones Both headphones use a badge in the form of a Y-com Aiaiai columns to a stereo plug cable to two mono cables each EarBud - rather annoyingly when the cursor left and right cable through the skin. But beyond that we found some commonalities. The stiffness of the cable to the S-com has been replaced by a subtle on the farm, and the headphones are small, which helps its members in the ears. We have never had a problem with the gel is to be expected, or seems to be happening with the persistence of Y-Com.

However, not all changes for the better. Aiaiai inexplicably seems to have forgotten, to the left and right headphone, which means that you will never know whether the right ear. Industrious types just this with their own brands, for the hearing is that (a strip of tape, perhaps?) But nobody has to guess how Aiaiai slipped and forgot to send in this way.


Aiaiai Pipe Sound quality of the tube looks like a hair better for us that the S-com, despite the fact that the driver minus 1 mm in diameter. Do you have the same great Punchy and downs, but with three times that seems a little more together. But rival Klipsch Image S4S4 Grado SR60 or the brightness and clarity at the upper end, but we suspect that the rock and hip-hop fans who prefer a little "over the ear is very satisfied with the grunt to make them. Just do not choose to add new instruments and nuances in your favorite jazz songs.

Aiaiai Pipe headphones


Conclusion
For about $ 30 less than S-com, Aiaiai offers a pair of headphones, the better, more appropriate, and ever so slightly better sound for our ears. Audiophile not online up to sing the praise for these cheap headphones, but music lovers Looking for a low-key pair of headphones everyday is safe - and some heavy blows - in Aiaiai pipe .

Jays v-Jays Headphones Review

Jays v-Jays Headphones Buyers looking for a pair of shiny headphones that actually cancel its triple-digit price could be a little disappointed by the decision of the low-key approach jays are with the Jays V-Jays, but we liked. Only a small group of black polished stress in the vicinity of the headphones - the rest of the bill with an opaque plastic, rubber feeling that reminds us of the long duration of the finishing ThinkPad. Every song fits perfectly, giving the impression of quality, and the little touches, like a strip of fake leather lining at the bottom of the head, helps ensure that a clear distinction of the least expensive alternative. It should be noted, however, that, as a lot of premium brands Scandinavian sound, actually built in Europe, but China.


Unlike traditional in-ear headphones, with the Walkman in 1991, with the V-Jays headphones folds 40 degrees of vibration in the head when you listen to a compact headphones in a backpack-friendly size. There are usually very skeptical of all things curve on the basis of the problems of life, but as resistant hinges, arms, bend enough to get that appears and close tightly on the head that seems to actual situation.


Jays have opted for a unique place pads that look like giant, foam wrapped Chiclete. We have a rectangular shape is less comfortable in our ears definitely not square, but the filling is soft and smooth rotating system that allows you to rotate and vary greatly from one to the head is better suited surprising - Aerie, which weighs only 59 grams No not bad, O. The film can also be adapted to more than two inches from each side to compensate for the size of the skull boys Leno size.


The V-Jays is physically in an ultra-short cable to life, even if you're using, and then connect to a 27.5-inch extension to the completion of an acceptable length. It is a clever way to create some options, but very briefly with the original cable, not many opportunities for use, without the extension - maybe with a wrist-mounted MP3 player, but that's all. The robust 3 millimeters thick, the V-Jays cable makes heavy as the wires, which was terminated Aiaiai Y-Com headset, but with a head, the weight is not so bulky. Unfortunately there are no controls to ensure the cables are connected to each phone, but then the connection fixing the position.


Sound quality from us completely on the first listen. For such a small headphones - a pair of 40 mm modest external drivers, which actually managed to enforce Jays "the promise of" Strike Hard "Caps. Smooth, low Punchy appeared to be in everything we hear, but especially in areas such as Red Hot Chili Peppers "Give It Away, where fleas" funky bass seemed extraordinary courage, but not boomy, muddy sound, the man with the frequency ramps. mids highs and does not seem to suffer so much for the effort. eyewear by the strong and clear voice high frequencies seemed to be difficult, without entering the territory - if it is not as clean as the legendary Grado SR60s that we use as a reference. This is a pair of headphones energy to dance with.


We note that these drivers are no longer effective, but probably not important for most people. In order to obtain the low to sing, we were constantly pushed to production is much higher in most devices. But far from being sufficient to produce a silk has amp.

Jays v-Jays Headphones

Conclusion
Wanted Punchy bass, without the burden of clunky studio cans? The trench choose earrings and a pair of these mighty Welterweight Champs. Price € 98 pushes the upper edge of the largest part of which the average consumer could, but the sound quality is justified for those who want to go to the headset without any soil, from a real system. SR60s to win even more comfortable for clarity and a better choice for the whole house, but most modern, portability and low v-Jays finally win one of them after a few users.

Phiaton Moderna MS 400 Headphones Review

Phiaton Moderna MS 400 Headphones Do not go so far as to say that the copper is directly Phiaton style monster rhythm by Dre headphones a few months ago, but ultimately there are some similarities between the two - particularly the red accents. Phiaton wrapped their heads in the earpieces and headphones on a lot of silk, leather, plush, and each additional inch is drenched in red. It is too hard for the large deposits of coal outside the enclosed driver. Bright colors have destroyed all the designs, but the charm of this high-end material, but we must still admit that his form is very authentic, as in Phiatons: in a thick layer of epoxy resin, the material come to life in from three dimensions.


Like most studio-style headphones with adjustable straps with Phiatons Ratchet rotating U-shaped earpieces media, allowing them to be the head. Two other hinges portability: Turn your head 180 degrees, the less space, and rotate it 90 degrees to the inside to determine flat.The difficult side zipper case with the MS-400 is a nice touch, but we want the headset is easily folded into its borders. We felt like we are packing the suitcase designed for the use of a case. No clear, it takes some finagling to understand how the package, and also in the right position, it is hardly enough space to liquidate.


Just four meter cable felt good, the MS 400 in any location with an MP3 player, but stay at home is far below the comfortable, even with a pair of computer speakers with a built in headphones. Because it is clear that for home and portable, it would be prudent Phiaton an extension to Jay and his V-Jays headphones - especially given the price of $ 250. Fortunately, you will receive a ¼-inch mini-headphone adapter 3.5 mm to use the MS-400 with full-size stereo system (if not mind sitting feet away from your equipment rack).

Test and use
Delete "left" and "right" in each earcup brands (even the word!) For the implementation of Member States and the adaptation of a simple case of the 400 - and the slight angle of the jaw-word immediately say whether it is back. We had hoped to make a place cheaper than the quality of the skin on these things, but the old is also suitable, then we say that is soft as a baby in the background. Soft feathers. Enough to almost disappear in the head and ears. However, like most circumaural (ear closed) headphones, which tend to warm the ears with some "extended wear.

Phiaton Moderna MS 400 Headphones


Even if the upper part of the way, we were skeptical that these phones could actually disguised the aspirations of their prices, just a few minutes of listening to our questions to rest quickly.


E 'un po' di couple cans by the door, not with toys groped an equalizer only to elicit the sound, but seemed nice MS 400, out of the box. Bass is insistent and the freight powerful, driving rock songs, songs move ears ringing like floods flabbiness cheap imitators do. But there is a clear voice, strong and high enough to seem to float and hover in the air.


The MS400 also features the image: Each instrument seems to occupy its place in space. Click tambourines expected, Radiohead's In Rainbows sounded like a couple of meters, and long percussive instruments clanga quietly in the distance, Thom Yorke crooner in the middle of traffic fatalities and serious injuries rose from below. If you are ever a pair of headphones with eyes closed and the place is dead in the middle of the study or the phase in which the song was recorded, the Phiatons is it.

Conclusion
Fifty years of experience of the parent company Cresyn brightness through the 400 Member States. Are rare headphones, the sound as alluring good looks to every problem associated with the innovative style, breathtaking sound. You need for the privilege, but we feel only € 250, if a little high price for entry into the world of superlative audio unlock these doses. Of course, as any audiophile products, be aware that the law of diminishing returns, are in full force, and a pair of sub-$ 100 phones in your vicinity. One in the fields of transport and other accessories (like a headphone extension) is also much more than the price to justify, and that the little-known in line with the big ones. Phiaton not have won praise for implementation in the Hall of Fame with the desire of headphones Sennheiser, AKG and Grado, but is on the right track.

Ultrasone HFI-2200 Headphones Review

Ultrasone HFI-2200 Headdphones Ultrasone seeking to carve out a share of the UK market with its portfolio of high-end headphones Headphone HFI. The Ultrasone HFI-2200 at the beginning of the set of headphones, the right to a natural surround sound of a big stage.


The first call on the HFI-2200 is the construction. Hate a bum note, but if you paid £ 230 for a headset you expect a little more than this. 2200 The most plastic, brown plastic, which is a kind of orange felt on the mat.


Not that something as superficial as the color scheme would be for someone who was looking for some headphones, because they are not to leave their home or studio, but the design is very acute. As in the seams by hand cry. Fortunately, this does not occur if we are really in the head when the moving parts squeak resolved in a comfortable position, the ear, with the pads resting lightly felt.


The 2200 How are comfortable for long listening sessions, and materials in connection with secured and open, not too hot, with a closed helmet to 5 hours before we stopped for a hook with a little tension in the neck . The headphones are easy to 292g without cable.


Anything that squeaks, something we have not only a goal, as these headphones will fold so that, after more than portable - you can see the cans after the head into a ball, or twisting of the dose if flattened when the package in a bag for example. This is a velvet bag for them too.


As open headphones do not want to wear in public, or anywhere that might annoy other people, of course, that the open nature means that it does not isolate the noise: noise is or internal or external to stop the noise is always through. Therefore, if you're looking for a good headset for air travel, and are totally inadequate.


What are these sitting in a quiet room where you can enjoy an immersive audio experience without worrying about the neighbors, if your crank hi-fi or home cinema. The opening has the advantage that the sound experience on the phone or door bell followed in May.


The cable is 3 meters long, given the task of home remedies that you can count on the sofa and TV without problem. Connected to your laptop, you can see, how are the feet or wheels on your desktop, however.

Supplied with connectors or 3.5 mm screws in the headphone jack on the left. This provides a secure connection, but we were given the length of the peg, it restricts the movement to the left so that, for practical reasons, the point of view it would be nice if it was a bit higher. You also get an adapter for 6.3 mm of gold, stick to hi-fi amplifier or your headphones.


When it comes to sound quality, which were a little skeptical at first. Perhaps because the last helmet, we tried the sublime Sennheiser HD 800, but you are with the HFI-2200 the call. Using roughly the same technology as the Sennheiser, not only in their free copy of nature but also in the transfer of sound projection.


The idea is not that the sound of blows to the ear at an angle, the length of the stage and give the impression that the sound comes out of the room, in the context of management: how to separate high stereo speakers. In the world of ultrasound is called S-Logic.


The result is not only sound natural, but also greater 3D sound stage. During normal listening to music, to be honest, May you find that it is not much difference, but not in live recordings and get a noticeable difference, it is also true for films, if you have a 3D effect with sound in the background before in a way that is often not the level of stereo speakers into a TV.

This is the kind of headphones if it means more than normal, so is the collection of data that you have not seen before. But this is not to say everything is fantastic. The work is fairly typical and we have found that sometimes things are not as different as one might expect, with the bottom of slopes subjected to intense deformation, which combines all low.


The same problem seems to be an obstacle to high intensity, so it is difficult to define the subtle elements, the HFI-2200 standout in this price is a bit disappointing.

Plantronics Audio 655 Headphones Review

Plantronics Audio 655 Headphones There are a lot of headphones, can be considered, with your PC. If you regularly listen to music or the game, and a headset. But if you have VoIP in the context of these games, or using a VoIP application like Skype for calling, it is worth investing in a headset, to meet those needs.


Of course, if you are a player, something like the Plantronics Audio 655 offers a good combination of features, so you use a headset with boom microphone, ideal for issuing orders to co-op missions or taunting his opponents. If you are a Skype user with a camera, you may feel a little more confidence in himself aware that this type of headphones - something to consider before investing.


The helmet is made of gray plastic and completely to help you get the right shape, it is normal to adjust the team, and some of Swing in the ear can cans. The choice of materials is not brilliant, but at this price, it is preferable that you would expect, and the construction is sufficiently robust.


Are quite large, however, and there is no way to wrinkles, so they do not actually practice on the road with you.


The boom microphone, but sometimes fall on the left side, with a flexible arm so you can use for your mouth. The end is painted red, like canned food, which is very active in these areas. You will also receive a 2-meter cable, should be sufficient to enable roaming on your desktop without it.


As I said, the 655 is quite thick, but more compact than some games, we have seen headphones in the past. The ear can not completely surround the ears (unless you have ears, especially small ones), but with a lot of padding at contact points on the edges and along the bar, we found that there many work overtime 655s. They are easy, if you do not need to worry about fatigue in the neck.


And why not take full ears are not very hot, even in summer or if you have the heater on to warm the ears after a while, as with most hearing aids. Isolation of noise is virtually non-existent, if we still hear noises outside. It is a double-edged sword, because they may silence your PC and listen to someone talk about you, without the device, as some would like.


The headset is very high. In fact, our MacBook had the volume at the lower end of the scale. As the entire journey was painfully difficult for us but also the quality of the band, and we found that there is very little distortion, as we have done up to volume.


On the left you will find a lot of control, so you can adjust the volume on your PC or Mac, without touching it, making the USB connection. The microphone and the silence of their own - simply lift it in the upright position, and cut a good opportunity to participate in conference calls with the on-line to worry about the microphone.


Microphone noise reduction, and we tried a few test calls and the results were very good, so that you can not worry about the radio in the background while you speak. Of course, the best results, turn off the radio is ultimately a much better result.


It is also known as a device for VoIP applications like Skype, Plantronics, and we say that the Skype headset is optimized for the new super high-speed designed for the audio codec Skype 4.0 for Windows. In our test calls, all loud and clear, so that the microphone works well. Upon receipt, the advantage of having a headset is to cut the distractions at the time of your computer.


Setting up the integration of VoIP and games aside, it remains impressive, with headphones for listening to music. As part of the service is very good, that players, how the sound is rich in the quality of the flesh. We found that listening to music education is great, but without the noise and tend to the same level of noise there is a leak something to consider if you're in a quiet area, like a train .


The impressive low vector that sometimes you find that the calls sound a little too Bassy - especially macho men, but less of a problem with women callers.

Etymotic hf2 Custom fit headphones

Etymotic hf2 Custom fit headphones The adaptation of Etymotic Headphones an interesting premise. Buy a pair of earphones Etymotic HF2 standard, and then pass through a single procedure to make them for you. But the result is worth?


To be honest: You can stop reading and get your opinion: it is one of the best games of headphones we've tested here at Pocket-Lint. Why? Well, you're not only comfortable, but also sound amazing. Better still, because the ear is perfect, not at its height.


So now we have our views on the table, we will inform you on how that process is installed and, more importantly, why I love them both.
Users to buy the helmet, which cost £ 99.99, which may be in one of 300 outlets allowed to print his own ear, as a new £ 90th Consequently, on the table, yes, it is a headset.


The whole is an interesting experience. You, a man RAMS (read push in) a small cotton swab of the ear before using it with the blue goo. It is completely painless and very comfortable, even if you feel as if you were in the context of the world.


After sitting there for about 5 minutes to allow the impression of being outside the United States under the ear (read politely removed), bag and label. A few weeks later, get a pair of handles, which clearly, as a specific form of the inner ear.


Why all the problems? The idea is that the headset is perfect when you and your ear.


Once the back of the sleeves (the service takes about 2 weeks), then all you have to do is useful to society HF2 headphones and you're ready to go.
"Most customers can Etymotic a comfortable fit with the series of tips in the ear of our products, but the adjustment HF2 offers the same comfort level, need musicians for live performances, producers say.


Enter the ear, the first time can be a frustrating experience, because it is moving a little and you have the right helmet for the right ear is important - it can not be otherwise.


Even after a few goes we will soon have the opportunity for us is a case of a 90 degree angle shot, and the headset while driving in the ears (which is really not as horrible as it sounds) then 'll hear / feel a pop and that's all his doing. You use a headset that nobody else can use.


The results of the HF2 speak for themselves, but the main advantage we have found is that because it is a perfect fit, there is very little noise in the world, and the noise isolation is excellent. This means that you do not need the music too loud and if you do not need, it is not so bad, damaging your ears.


Listen to the network in a number of devices from an iPod touch to a Denon amp, the results were impressive. Find banda accompanying light very clearly, when you click on a Mac On banda 16 bars, you can easily listen to a single bar of the banda on a train, compared to a standard pair of Apple headphones required 12 bar or more. The iPod touch is necessary, the level of no more than a quarter en route to the volume control.


But it is not only the volume, the headphones are very good, something is missing in a rich bass prefer not to bad performance and the wall of sound is more than enough for them.


For phone calls on the iPhone, the Etymotic HF2 microphone online so that you can use the headphones as a headset and that is good enough to make calls. In our tests, the microphone is similar to using a mobile, but of course we must take into account the bill is not connected to wireless headsets. You have a clip to attach to your shirt or jacket, however.

Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170 Headphones Review

Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170 Logitech when he purchased the venerable manufacturer of headphones, Ultimate Ears, which asks whether the European Union the top of the platform audio engineering team to remain in force. Logitech has assured us that the same team behind the Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170 ($ 49.99 list), which is the first since the acquisition. And we think: This game does not disappoint. The headphones offer a frequency response with low power and excellent support, all for an affordable price. Things seem a little 'too severe in the medium and high frequencies, but for $ 50, the couple is still impressive enough to earn our Editors' Choice earphones.

 

It budget is also important to note that there are 59, $ 99 for the iPhone The MetroFi 170vi with a microphone in line and answer a call button.Weighing of 0.44 ounces, MetroFi, the 170 remains in its place with the kit comes with three sizes of silicon ear tips. (A pitch adjustment with a seal, it is important for achieving an adequate response to low frequency and to maintain the stereo image.) In my test, the headphones never slipped out of my ears or loss and the closure of all - has never felt uncomfortable, even during extended listening sessions. In the box you will find a small window pop open the plastic wrap if MetroFi 170, 46-inch cord. A shirt clip would be a good complement, especially since the headphones have a small problem with the shock cord (which makes the sound when it hits the wire against his chest or touching). Not a big problem when you are sitting or standing still, but is rather 'disturbing, if you want to use this pair, especially in the conduct of the race, where the cable hitting his head several times in the chest. Our acoustic frequency response tests show that, although its lower price, the 170 is a MetroFi similar but less nuanced, frequency response curve than the Ultimate Ears' premium bid, the EU usually 11 Pro ($ 1150 list). In fact, it seems a little 'low-frequency response, which is surprising given the EU included in the Pro 11 subwoofer. Even so, there is no comparison between the quality of these two couples. MetroFi But the 170 is capable of driving under the intense end of these objectives. The couple is distorted in the sub-100-Hz range in the high-volume, which is impressive for $ 50 pair of headphones. Our test of linear frequency response, which compares the curve of the left ear to right ear, with a difference: Why is the adaptation of the course, some differences, probably due to drivers, obviously, does not adapt. However, the budget for a helmet, carrying a little 'better than expected in this regard.


In songs with deep, resonant bass, as Thom Yorke of "Cymbal Rush", the depth 170 transmits MetroFi analog drum hits and is capable of resonance for the larger volume. Although some 'distortion is minimal. (Do not listen to his music so much, anyway.) One of the more subtle clues, such as Bernard Herrmann Vertigo Suite of loud sounds and the orchestra, though sometimes a little 'heavy on the lower half - the range. From time to time, especially in rock music, with distorted guitars, the MetroFi 170 may seem a little 'hard. However, only $ 10 more convenient for our preferred low-end headphones, Radius' Atomic Bass earphones ($ 39.99 list), the most refined MetroFi offers 170 low-end response and a better overall sound signature.

Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170 is a good option if you want to improve your MP3 player headphones, and you will notice an improvement in sound quality without paying a fortune. The couple of small flaws and a few hard blows lead in certain frequency ranges are exceeded by their strong performance and excellent acoustics. If you can afford, to $ 99.99 Shure SE115 is more balanced, but it offers a serious response. In addition, 170, big brother, the MetroFi 220 ($ 79.99 list), offers a response very similar, with a weight, with deep bass.

Phiaton PS 300NC

Phiaton PS 300NC Headphons When we last checked with Phiaton, this new competitor in the high market caps powerful and deep MS-400. While Dr. Dre headphones Monster which expire, and it also seems a little 'like them. With its latest model, the PS 300NC ($ 299 list) takes Phiaton icon noise suppression of Bose, the Phiaton PS 300NC QuietComfort 3. In addition to cost less than the QC3, PS managed respectable 300NC Noise Cancellation and strong (if not brilliant) performance audio, and comes with lots of accessories. However, prices at about $ 300, our Editors' Choice, Creative Aurvana X-Fi Noise Canceling Headphones, is even higher.

Light (5 ounces) PS 300NC is a po 'like the QC3. Both couples are supra-aural, meaning that the rest of the ear instead of blocking and any sealing. The cans are black metallic platinum / gold (as opposed to the QC3, whose coffers are mainly silver) and black on the outside of the house is real leather. The pads look almost identical to the impression that QC3 and plush, but the QC3 is a lot more comfortable and lighter in the head for long periods of time. A reversing switch is in the accident, and is easy to activate and deactivate the ignition. A surprising choice of design: Bass Boost switch on each ear. It 'good to be able to add or subtract the low end, but because two switches? Anyone can grow under the left ear, but to give up right?

Phiaton PS 300NC Headphons
With PS 300NC has a lot of accessories: a second rechargeable battery, adapter quarter inch helmet, detachable audio cable terminating in a 3.5-mm, various power supplies, a charger base with a USB cable and a dual plug adapter for aircraft. All this together with the helmet in the shape of a sturdy black seems that comes with the QC3.

PS 300NC and QC3 is doing a good job of noise suppression, although in different ways. Each pair of large blocks of frequency bands, but in different ranges. Sometimes the QC3 might seem as if the introduction of a number of very thin high-frequency whistle, however, the PS 300NC cut a little 'less ambient noise outside, but does not hiss. The Aurvana X-Fi sounds like a couple of Bose, a little 'less hiss.


You can use the PS 300NC when the noise cancellation does not become a feature of Bose has not yet adopted. With the removal of the noise off, the lower switches do a good job to compensate for the driver is activated and an increase in power with low noise, when the cancellation is active, but the effect is more subtle. Paradoxically, the best on a headset without noise cancellation, which should not be the case: When the noise cancellation is activated, the depth of the bass tends to distort at high volume.


The PS provides 300NC respectable bass and clarity in the midrange and above. But it can not handle lower deeper in large volumes and, unfortunately, you may want to listen at high volume, because these headphones are quieter than others in general. The distortion is not unbearable, but marked, it is necessary to reduce the volume a little 'when you hear. While the QC3 does not suffer from these problems of distortion or volume, the frequency response and nasal sounds metallic Phiaton wins pair in this account. However, the superior sound, a little 'nice balanced Creative Aurvana X-Fi won two couples.


If your priority is comfort, it's easy to choose the Phiaton PS 300NC on Creative Aurvana X-Fi is the best comparable Phiaton and noise reduction to offer the same price ($ 300), but the pair of Creative offers a better quality sound in general. (The two pairs of its good enough for the  350 Bose QuietComfort 3 seem overpriced.) Any person wishing to obtain a true audio excellence, however, waive the cancellation of noise or be prepared to drop about $ 450 from Sennheiser PXC 450 NoiseGard.

Genius GHP-04NC Headphones Review

Genius GHP-04NC Headphones Not surprisingly, then, to $ 49.99 (list)-pair of noise-canceling headphones is only partially effective to eliminate the noise, after all, most couples are decent about $ 250. But it is surprising that the same results thundering from below. The Genius GHP-04NC blows my mind. I do not know if anyone buys it to reduce the noise of the train or plane that all the emotions, but for fans of low cost, is a good option. Speaking with an error of marketing!


The GHP-04NC can not cope with the Bose QuietComfort 2 $ 299 $ 349 or QC3 in terms of design or noise suppression. In short, this pair is no longer comfortable. The circumaural (around the ear) is to put pressure on the structure of all the wrong places: the top of the skull near the temples and the front of the ear. The couple is portable, but these days companies such as Bose, Sennheiser and Sony have a comfort factor of science, not only with headphones. In addition, Sony MDR-XB300 also costs $ 50, even if they do not constitute an offer to cancel the noise at low height, more practical, and plush ear cups. And even though most of the cables included noise-canceling headphones so you can use as a blocker is not the noise when listening to music, GHP-04NC wired cable.


$ 50, with any pair of noise-canceling headphones do not have complaints. So the way: The GHP-04NC requires two AAA rechargeable batteries instead of a whole, is not a matter of convenience and the elimination of noise is low. (One point for GHP-04NC: Unlike the Bose QuietComfort series, even if the audio output of the noise suppression is not activated, the volume and bass response was significantly reduced, however.) How many Al cheaper unit to cancel the noise, GHP-04NC adds a good amount of hiss range (similar to what you have heard the tapes) in the treatment available to all other outside of frequencies.


But the bass response! The GHP-04NC the sound quality is much better than the average of $ 50 per pair, which reproduces the low frequencies are powerful and articulate. Audiophiles should not go near this couple, but people who want a little 'more power in his hip-hop, electronic, hard rock or the love of tracks to deal with these headphones, sub-bass frequencies. The top half and high frequencies are crisp, even if sometimes too bright. But when the balance of work on issues such as the Knife "Silent Shout", the resonance of the lower end thuds is palpable. At the highest level of listening is not only a degree of distortion is not in any degree, kicks and drums, analog synthesizers, guitars and intense sound without hiding under the rest of the music.


Nothing more to say about the genius of the bass surprisingly heavy pair of noise suppression. It comes with an airplane adapter, headphone adapter quarter inch, two AAA batteries (which can work for say 50 hours), a travel bag in leather and a manual. Engineering GHP-04NC can not compete with one of our Editors' Choice Noise Canceling Headphones, $ 300 Creative Aurvana X-Fi or Bose offers nothing but the couples are in a different area prices. For $ 50, you get this link to the cancellation of the noise, it seems as if it were integrated into the subwoofer and high net enough to balance things. If you do not need active noise cancellation and are open to the headphones, the purchase of $ 50 last excellent Ears MetroFi 170th

Shure SRH440 Professional Studio Headphones Review

Shure SRH440 Professional Studio Headphones My only problem with the design: the helmet became uncomfortable after an hour or two of constant use, this should not be a problem with a pair of long recording sessions. In the table, you can get a detachable cable, a carry case and an adapter for the most 1/4-inch headphone jack. The headphones fold easily inside the bag. Since the cable is usually the first thing to do in most headsets and headphones, you can easily replace, it's a good thing. And you rarely see a cable with a headphone in this price range.


I like how the handles SRH440 low frequencies. The drivers are able to reproduce the frequencies normally handled by a subwoofer, even at high volume, I noticed no distortion. In my testing, pumping, synthesizer and drum strokes resonance Silent Shout The Knife treated with grace, there is much more to provide a thrust of flat response, the bass response, but far from overwhelming. I could even say ideal. The high-end frequency response is very strong, and only occasionally a little 'too bright for my tastes. A note for musicians, high volume, there are significant losses that could take a vocal microphone, but it is quite normal, even with headphones for the investigation.
Benchmark Audio


Our Head Acoustics frequency response tests show a significant increase of about 10kHz, which in some cases, adds brightness to the whole sound, but others can make things seem a little 'too severe. Compared to the excellent Grado SR60, the SRH440 not so lucky along the entire frequency range. Although less than $ 30 a pair of Shure, the SR60, with its open design (the headphones in your ears sit instead of creating a seal around it) projects sound to the outside, it is not appropriate for registration. Un po 'more expensive, Sennheiser HD238 ($ 139.95) are comparable to SRH440 both in terms of price and sound quality, but also projects for the development of sound, so it is not easy registration. But for music lovers to search for the lowest frequency of the subwoofer, the HD238 pack a little 'more than a handful SRH440, and also less bright in the high frequencies, as well as our head of graphics illustrate Acoustics.


Most headphones quality recording comes with two things that SRH440: a plan of response and a high price. It is not uncommon to pay more than $ 200 for a pair of Sennheiser or AKG, the two brands. Therefore, the incursion into the Shure earbuds with a low-cost models shakes things a little '. The SRH440 is accessible and offers more low-end response that the typical studio headphones, as the musicians rap, electronic, or hard rock are more likely to benefit from this pair, like the music fans are fans of these genres

Auvio In-Ear Armature Headphones Review

Auvio In-Ear Armature Headphones It seems that every Tom, Dick and Harry is to turn off the headset these days, and Radio Shack is now out in the cold. Electronics is becoming an online retailer of branded sports Auvio helmet. The line includes a series of models ranging from very cheap ($ 15) at the beginning of the line and In-Ear Armor shown here. This series is still available for $ 80, but it is almost impossible to recommend to the comparison between prices Klipsch Image S4. In the headphones battery Auvio not only in terms of sound quality, although we appreciate the comfort and the foam ear.


In Auvio earphones are fairly standard - nothing on the issue of "Bloom points out, however, that could be positive for some. Earphones are slightly tapered so as to resemble miniature Cupcakes corner, oversize sails for the audio port. In these, you can connect a of the six types of earphones that come with the package. surely appreciate the fact that three of the Council have foam in different sizes. compressible material, tend to offer more secure and comfortable and block most outside noise. In fact, isolation passive noise is perhaps the only place where Auvio "buttons image S4S rhythm.

Descent of Auvio headphones that are available in two color choices (black or blue) - is a black cable that measure 4 meters and ends in a gold. The cable is rather 'a mix, actually. Even if the segment is often more impressive and flexible, the upper part is thin and the surface that gives the 'buds are weak. Only time will tell us how you can support the long term. On the positive side, there is a slider S to help prevent tangles when the headphones are not used, and the package includes a nice travel bag with two compartments.


Unfortunately, our praise In-Ear Auvio Armor stops there. The sound quality is not. When playing music is not terrible, not that we expect in this price range. That is, the clarity is not great, with almost all the rocks and other fast songs that suffer most. Sounds tend to track at any musher who have a lot of complexity - which come in a box as unruly cacophony. We also noticed that some pieces are slightly 'choked in terms of quality, and the response was very low in most cases sentimental. In fact, the low is not as deep as we would like general.


You can not say that it is disappointed with the Auvio In-Ear - we have great hopes for the headphones in this price range, which is a little 'sweet a place. Unfortunately, there's nothing to do here, or even more the image S4. The only result of isolation Auvios noise exceeds the capacity.
