Feeling sound, Skullcandy Lowrider

Advantages: Price, excellent audio response, trendy colors
Disadvantages: Read the review

...so on. The Skullcandy has a great range of quality headphones and most of them are reasonably priced. Now it’s quite pertinent to ask why not go for the best. There are two main factors:a) The price. 2) The necessity of requirement. Bose makes great headphones but their deletion from list of brands is automatic. (On both counts). At around £26 it’s definitely quality available at a reasonable price. They are designed so intelligently, a high comfort ...
...schemes and a DJ-style swiveling ear cups. They are available in both leather and headband (a bit thicker) and they fit in snugly which eliminates noise and audio spill out. The Lowrider’s 40 mm drives guarantees that much of extra bass without effecting the high frequency spectrum to any noticeable extent. They are foldable, which is a big plus. I just can not help but look at its technical specifications: Headphones Type: Headphones - Binaural ...

Review of Skullcandy Lowrider

Sennheiser, affordable & sound great

Advantages: Sound great
Disadvantages: May feel cheap

What do you want in a good set of headphones, good sound, and a nice fit. Well these cover the nice fit, with extendable bands to match your head, and cusioned pads on the band so you dont feel any rubbing. The sound? that's covered too, these are over-ear headphones so they accomodate larger speakers, and much better base, than convensional in-ears, and the treble is just as good. Basically they sound great, especially when you consider the price ...
...expect to pay £60! The ear pads are just as comfortable too, cusioned as you'd expect but they also fit well so you get less sound seeping out, and more is contained to travel to your ears and noone elses, which also means you don't hear much from the outside, no annoying children on the bus, or the sound of tracks in the tube. They come with a handy carry case to stop annoying wire tangles and it protects the headphones very well. I will never ...

Review of Sennheiser PX200

Who is Bose trying to trick

Advantages: good feel, comfortable, good mid-range, and treble
Disadvantages: Terrible garbage base that drowns out midrange and treble

There are some good things and some bad things with these headphones.First off, they are amazingly comfortable and you could wear them all day. There is very little sound leak meaning they provide very good sound insulation reducing the need for noise cancelling technology. Great because you don't need to fool around with batteries.The soundThe treble and mid range are great, it's just too bad that they are almost completely overwhelmed by a terrible ...
...base as opposed to actually playing the correct frequency. This base blasts out a range of low frequencies in an attempt to hit the one it's looking for. I beleive that phono experts refer to this as garbage base.The base and the quality and whether it hurts your head or not depends on the song you play. If you catch a bad song you end up reducing the volume to avoid spilling your brains and then find yourself straining to hear the music.This overbearing ...

Review of Bose ON-EAR

Sound of this one is no joke.

Advantages: Sound reproduction. Carry Case. Portability. Very CHEAP! BEST value for money.
Disadvantages: Hmmm...nada..

What can I say. This is my buddy. I owned this pair of px100 way back 2006. Excellent Sound. Sleek Design. Carrying Case. What can you ask for? I do recommend this on newbies. If you own this. You'll not gonna look for other headphones. Promise. Was able to test this one using a iTouch (+9), Sony's NWS203F (8) but this sounds perfect using a Sony Video Walkman the NWZA816 (10). Not suitable for small mp3 players like the Shuffle and the Pebble of ...

Review of Sennheiser PX100

Can't complain with Sennheiser

Advantages: Clear excellent bass sound. Well fitted.
Disadvantages: None

...it!!! After I received the Sennheiser HD 228 headphone from Amazon for only £30.99 including delivery, I took my time opening it. My first impression was 'wow, cool, it's smaller than I expected which is good, and you can twist the two ends of the headphone so it can be flat pack too. Then I plug the headphone into my portable CD player, listen to one of my best tracks and I was hooked. The sound was clear, the bass (described on the package as ...
...couldn't agree more. The soft padding was so comfortable, the headphone fit snugly over my head and ears which block out any outside noise perfectly. My 11 years old daughter tried the headphone on and her first comment was 'awesome =D'. One disadvantage though, now every time my daughter got this headphone on, I have to come look for her and tap her on the shoulder when I want to speak to her. But I really can't complain when it comes to my turn ...
