NuForce NE-600X Sound Isolating Earphones – Review
The NE-600X earbuds provide good value for the price. Bass response is acceptable when listening to classical music, though not particularly noteworthy. On the other hand, I gave them to a 19-year-old who listened to hip-hop with them and thought the bass was terrific.

Headphones Comparison: V-Moda Remix Remote vs. Arctic E461-BM
One of the greatest assets to any iOS device is the ability to listen to your favorite music, audiobooks, or your favorite apps. There is nothing more annoying than trying to do so with earphones that simply ruin the experience with their shoddy qualities. Most of us aren’t in the market for expensive earphones that can cost over $200, so what’s out there for those of us who want to find a balance between sound quality and cost? V-Moda and Arctic each have earphones in their lineups that try to reach such a balance. How do they compare?

BlueAnt Embrace Stereo Headphones – Review
There are headphones and then there are just headphones. BlueAnt has set out to show how headphones should be done, and as far as I’m concerned, they have really succeeded with the Embrace Stereo headphones. Designed specifically for the iPod, iPhone and iPad, the Embrace Stereo headphones also do a fantastic job when plugged into your Mac or PC.

Wicked Audio Reverb Headphones – Review
With iPods, iPhones and iPads everywhere, and they being the way that most people listen to their music, the use of headphones has skyrocketed; be they earbuds, in the ear, on the ear or over the ear models. Since I really enjoy the pleasure of listening to my music without infringing upon others, I am always on the lookout for new things to try out. When the chance came along to try out something new, I went for it and tried out Wicked Audio’s Reverb Headphones that promise music like you’ve never heard before.

Sennheiser CX 680i Headphones – Review
The first thing you notice about the 680i’s are the shark-like fins that protrude from each earbud. These fins look as if they would feel uncomfortable, but they do a great job of holding the earbuds in place, even while working out. You can wear them for several hours, and while you know you’re wearing headphones, you don’t feel any real discomfort. There’s not much that’s more annoying and potentially dangerous than an earbud falling out while running on a treadmill or an elliptical machine. You can feel secure that this won’t ever happen while wearing the 680i’s.

Gaming combo review: Arctic Cooling P531 surround-sound gaming headset and Arctic Cooling M571 gaming mouse
For the price both the Arctic Cooling P531 headset and the Arctic Cooling M571 gaming mouse are good-value products. The lack of Macintosh instructions is a niggle but not a flaw: neither product is sold as a Mac peripheral as such, they just happen to work great when plugged into a Mac.

Read MoreReview – Sennheiser PX210BT Headphones
The Sennheiser PX210BT earphones are a comfortable against-the-ear headset designed to be used wirelessly with any newer Bluetooth compatible device. They also come with a USB cable that can be plugged into an external power source or computer output so that when the built- in rechargeable battery is low or exhausted you can still listen to music as you would with any other set of wired earphones. If you’re going to use them with an iPhone, keep in mind they do not come with a microphone.

GR8 In-Ear Headphones – Review
I spent the last four afternoons outside in the late-winter sun of southern Arizona, evaluating GR8 while listening to dozens of free Amazon download tracks in a wide array of musical styles. The sound is immersive, placing my hearing senses fully and exclusively within the headphones’ immediate performance space.

Skullcandy FMJ iPhone earbuds and microphone – Review
Skullcandy; now there’s a naming success. Skullcandy’s a little company that markets a wide selection of headphones, earbuds, and accessories. I’ve never had any trouble remembering this firm’s name! Skullcandy’s target audience is the skater/hiphop crowd, but don’t let that (or their too-cool-for-school website design) drive you away, even if you lean more to the fuddy-duddy side of the spectrum.
EH 150 Headphones
Review
After playing around with cheap headphones I came to the conclusion that many do with devices like this; you get what you pay for. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a decent set of headphones without spending a fortune though. Case in point, the Sennheiser EH 150 headphones.
