Rant: Frequency Ranges Need To Die

Last Updated: April 19, 2016

Let’s take a look at the HIFIMAN HE400S headphones. Really solid pair of cans, these. They also contain a little piece of marketing information that is complete and utter nonsense.

Review: Monoprice Monolith M1060

How would you like to read a review of the most hyped headphones on the planet? That’s no exaggeration. In the past year, no other pair of headphones has caused as much intrigue...

Review: Periodic Audio Titanium

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

We weren’t too familiar with Periodic Audio before. Yes, we know, perhaps we should be, but there are a lot of audio companies out there and we aren’t omniscient. We should have been paying closer attention...

5.1 vs. 7.1 Home Theater Explained

Last Updated: October 9, 2023

We get it. Home theater can be crazy confusing, especially if you’re just starting out. In one of the biggest decisions you’ll need to make is whether to go for a basic five-speaker system or a more powerful seven-speaker system.

Review: Raumfeld One S

Last Updated: September 16, 2016

You’ve got to have pretty big ambitions to compete with SONOS in the wireless speaker market. That company’s already got most of the action sewn up, and with good reason, but that hasn’t stopped others from trying to get some.

Review: OPPO PM-2

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

It’s not often that a company known for making Blu-ray players creates waves in the audio world. And it’s a little sad that no matter how big OPPO gets, they will always inevitably be introduced with those words.

Review: Focal Spark Wireless

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

Last year, we reviewed the Focal Spark, an excellent pair of buds that retail for a little under $70. When they were shipped to us, they also included the wireless version, unsurprisingly called the Focal Spark Wireless.

Review: Fostex TH610

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

If you love headphones like we do, one of the most annoying things is trying to convince others that they can be objects of beauty. Where we see smooth curves, perfect headband design, and clever use of materials, others only see bulky plastic...

Review: Paradigm PW 600

Last Updated: May 23, 2018

Nothing makes us happier than replacing an already brilliant bit of kit with something even better, because who doesn’t love a challenger? So we were really, really excited to unwrap speaker maker Paradigm’s PW 600.

Review: Master & Dynamic MH40

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

New York’s Master & Dynamic remain one of the most underrated headphone companies around. They produce some absolutely phenomenal gear – such as the wireless MW50s – and it all started with the MH40s.

What are headphone companies doing about Apple?

Last Updated: September 14, 2016

When Apple announced it was dropping the 3.5mm headphone jack from its new iPhone 7, they may as well have said they were going to offer free ebola shots with each preorder...

Review: Optoma NuForce BE2

Last Updated: July 4, 2018

We were curious to try out Optoma NuForce's Be2 earbuds - while the company may be boring, in terms of corporate identity, their equipment has impressed us before.

TAVES 2017 - Day 2

Last Updated: October 14, 2017

We saw EVERYTHING. Concrete speakers. Eight-foot-tall driver stacks. Turntables that look like something from the lair of a Bond villain. A torrent of wonderful noise, issuing forth from the rooms of the Toronto Convention Centre.

Amp, DAC & DAP Reviews

Last Updated: June 28, 2018

We love amps. Adore them. And we have a special spot for DACs and DAPs (pocket audio players, to non-audiophiles) too.

Full Home Theater Systems

Last Updated: June 28, 2018

Surround sound speakers - home theater systems, to use the technical terms - can be huge fun to have around. Once you've had a movie or a Netflix series bombarding you from five, seven, nine or thirteen directions at once, you'll never go back.
