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

Great Sound, But Alas, I Cannot Use These Anymore

Advantages: Great Sound, Comfortable, Stylish
Disadvantages: Durability

...look cool. The market that Skullcandy have created with stylish headphones is admirable, and putting them on can make anyone look a little bit more trendy. So a big thumbs up in this department. Now, in terms of value for money, these things have been a bit confusing for me. I picked them up on play.com for £18 last year (the price has gone up since then, presumably these were discounted). However one of my friends, who was buying almost at the same ...
...(I plumped for the black) for around £40. So I think it depends on the price you get them for really. For £18 they have been great. And the most important aspect, the sound. It's fantastic. That's no exaggeration, these really opened my eyes. Songs sounded so much clearer and bassier, without sounding overly thumpy. So yes, if your looking for a great sounding pair of headphones, these really hit the mark. What I will say though, is that, at least ...

Philips SBCHC8440 Review

Advantages: light, smallish, built-in volume control, good sound quality
Disadvantages: crackle when moved, strange base

I bought this wireless headphone from argos for £33.99. I have only had one main issue with these headphones, and that is when i move my head slightly, the headphones lose connection, or crackle and that is only resolved by smacking the headphones or moving again. Other irritating things about this set is that the base has its own headphone jack built in, so you cant do certain things with it. the other odd thing about these is that the base uses ...
...i just found that a bit wierd. The headphones also dont give you much of a heads-up about a low battery level. when it first went dead, the headphones just died suddenly, right in the middle of an action scene in the film i was watching. I was happy with the built in volume control on the headphones as well. the headphones are comfortable to wear and the headphones are light. that is one major issue i find with some wireless headphones, is that ...

Review of Philips SBC-HC 8440

Wired For Sound

Advantages: Brilliant sound for the price
Disadvantages: No sound limiter, long cable

...before I decided on the Sennheiser HD201 closed back headphones which were selling on Amazon.co.uk for just £14.99. The black and silver headphones are really comfortable to wear, the padded headband is adjustable so even if you have a big head they should fit you nicely. The part that sits on your ears swivels slightly from side to side giving it a bit of leeway to make sure the ear cups sit exactly in the right position over your ears and this ...
...going to be much use. Sennheiser claim that these headphones are responsive between 21-18000Hz and when I tested this out I found it to be accurate. The test I did on YouTube also showed impressive surround sound qualities with the sound coming from different directions provided of courser you remember to check the cups for the mini L and R icons before you put them on! A test is one thing but the headphones also perform well with all of my listening ...
