A great set of headphones for any music lover!

Advantages: Stylish, Great Sound, Look Fantastic, Light, Comfortable, Must have!
Disadvantages: Music can be heard by others at volume, no real problem though!

...Being a great lover of music I was finding that standard head phones and ear buds just weren't doing the music any justice. The "as standards" often made the music crackle and you would lose part of the songs because of the either over the top, or under used bass. Especially at any decent volume. The other problem was that they would always break and seemed to be made out of nothing but toffee. I'm sure everyone has been left with headphones with only one ear working! I decided that I wanted a decent pair of head phones but didn't want to be spending out hundreds of pounds for a pair. I initially looked for some wireless ones but a friend tipped me off that Skull Candy made some great headphones that wouldn't break the bank. After looking around at what Skull Candy had to offer I found that they had a huge range of head phones from...

Mattygroves and Her Unexpectedly Good Earphones

Advantages: Superb sound, comfortable fit, volume control on the cord
Disadvantages: Some earbuds were missing, slighly pricy for in-ear earphones

...I am coming to realise that iPod/MP3 player earphones take quite a beating indeed. I have owned a number of pairs of said earphones over the past two or three years, and inevitably, eventually they break down (normally the wires get frayed or something, and so you receive audio out of only one ear). The durability of the earphones is compromised also by my habit of wrapping the cord around the iPod itself (apparently a no-no, but I've never found a sufficient convenient alternative). I use in the ear soft earphones. I have small ear canals, and so find rigid earpieces uncomfortable. I'd be tempted by over the ear headphones, but they are inconvenient to transport. Now, you can buy earphones for as little as a fiver, or you can spend a small fortune, necessitating a re-mortgage. I have tried the cheaper, and the mid-cheap (say £15 - £20...

Review of Sennheiser CX 500 Headphones

ipod earphones

Advantages: The come packaged when you buy an ipod.
Disadvantages: Poor Sound Quality, Uncomfortable.

...The apple ipod earphones come as standard with all apple ipod products but you can also purchase them from official apple dealers and outlets for around £15-£20. I used my ipod earphones for a few weeks after I got my ipod but as soon as I found a suitable replacement, I got rid of them. The sound quality is very poor, I had to turn my ipod up to full volume (even with the volume limiter off) before I could hear the music properly. The bass sounds I got from these earphones was also very poor, a problem which was not helped by the volume required as it distorted the sound quite a lot. Considering the price you pay for these, they are not even comfortable, I felt them slipping out of my ear one more than one occasion and a few times, after using them for about an hour, I had a severe pain in my ear. The connector of these earphones is...

A good set of earphones

Advantages: Cheap and work well
Disadvantages: Not so durable

...I have had these earphones for 6 months now, they have been of good service and i have not a bad word to say about them in terms of the sound, the sound is excellent, there is lots of bass aswell, which is not always the case with earphones. The only downside is .... About 1 week ago they just started crackeling for no reason, they crackeled until they finally completely blew. BUT... i am ordering a new pair any way as they were so good, and only cost £6.40 (this is what I got them for but it can vairy a little bit some times) off Amazon, which is quite good for everyday 6 months of listening. I highly recomened these brilliant, great value ear phones. By the way: 1. These earphones have 336 reviews (or around that on amazon) so if you need more information just go and check them out on amazon and they will tell you all...

Review of Creative EP 630

A great set of rollers!

Advantages: shiny, full of volume curls!
Disadvantages: Still time consuming!

...I used these a few weeks ago at my friend's house and I was really impressed! When I go out to a wedding or a big occasion I like to spend some time getting ready and making my hair look nice. I have tried using curling tongs and GHDs to curl my hair but i'm always getting it uneven or burning myself or I get half way throguh and decide i'm fed up!! I went to my friend's house and used her roller set and I was really impressed with them! They heated up very quickly and were really easy to use. The box contains 20 rollers which are ceramic. They are in 3 different sizes which is dfferent to what I've used before as they only had two sizes. There are large, medium and small so you can get the right type of curl for the right part of your hair! They secure into place with the grips really easily which again is a bonus, it can be...

In the night garden ninky nonk train set

Advantages: strong, versatile, compact, nice bright colours, fun to play with
Disadvantages: none so far

...I decided to buy the in the night garden ninky nonk train set from Amazon as my young daughter is a big fan of in the night garden and whenever it comes on TV she gets really excited. So as my daughter already had some of the other characters from the show I wanted her to have the whole set and since buying it the train set the ninky nonk train set has become one of her favourite toys to play with on a daily basis. The train set can come apart and be attached on many different ways and my daughter enjoys looking at the nice bright colours and putting some of the other in the night garden characters onto the train set even though it keeps falling of now and again it keeps her busy and sometimes I hear her in fits of giggles. The train set is very cute and versatile and its great as children such as mine can have hours of fun with it...

Review of Hasbro In the Night Garden Ninky Nonk Train Set

5/5 Earphones

Advantages: Stylish design; 10/10 Sound Quality; Stylish earphones pouch;
Disadvantages: Discomfort initially; Expensive; Covers come off too easily

...Got these earphones for my birthday, so it's been about 6 months, and I have nothing but praise for them. Most importantly, the sound quality is perfect 10/10. My girlfriend who borrowed it once was left awestruck by the quality, likening it to being in a top-notch cinema with high-quality surround sound system. The sound quality makes average songs sound like hits. Next, the design. While it may be a little awkward to put it on and some may have difficulty fitting the earphones to the shape of their ears, I'm personally a very big fan of the design. I like the look of it and love the feel of it. You will most probably experience some discomfort when you first put it on, but it'll soon pass, well at least that's always been the case for me. Along with the earphones, there's a stylish black pouch that can be used for storage...

Review of Bang & Olufsen Headphones

Apple iPod Earphones

Advantages: Free with an iPod
Disadvantages: Cost £20 for a new pair, poor sound quality.

...When I got these earphones with my iPod I didn't think the sound quality was awful but it certainly wasn't great either. The bass is pretty shoddy in my opinion. Just how shoddy wasn't something I realised until I bought some Sennheiser and subsequently ended up using some Altec Lansings. The reason I bought other earphones was because my iPod earphones broke. The plug in jack came off from the iPod, stuck in my laptop. Managed to remove it without any damage to my laptop luckily. Considering these earphones cost around £10-20 I fail to see why anyone would buy these. Even if you're a poser and you want to advertise the fact that you have an iPod to everyone else, buy white Sennheiser CX 300 for around £17. The sound quality of the CX 300 is far superior (the bass is much better though that's not the only improvement) and no one...

Wonderful Literary Chick Flick Trilogy Box Set

Advantages: Well acted, Great Book Adaptation Storylines, Fun for All Ages
Disadvantages: Each Movie is About Three Hours Long

...be ignored by the overall storyline. I was slightly disapointed by this third story since it really didn't go by the books my L.M Montgomery at all. The first two movies are at least based on her books , but this movie was almost entirely made up. I was hoping the third movie would follow the other books about Anne as she is grown up with Children. Still, the movie was well made and entertaining. It was good to see the actors again, and the costumes anad attention to detail from the World War I era are fantastic. It's not as good as the first two movies, but well worth a watch. ******Conclusion***** All these movies in the Box Set; Anne of Green Gables, The Sequel , and The Continuing Story, are so much fun. Children around the age of 7 and up will enjoy the first one. While children more around the age of 10 and up would...

Review of Anne Of Green Gables (Box Set) (DVD)

An excellent set of headphones that are well priced

Advantages: good sound, great bass and good treble, comfy and cool
Disadvantages: quite big over the ear, poke out, treble can wash out

...balanced. The treble is also good, while perhaps not as strong, and plays well in classical music and rock and pop, but occasionally washes out when listening to high violins or guitars. VALUE FOR MONEY In terms of value for money, these are good £50 headphones. In the over ear market they don't stand out for value, but the sound is excellent and the design great, as well as very comfy, so yes, I would definitely reccomend them at the available price. CONCLUSION This is an excellent set of headphones at good prices over the web, with nice sound and great comfort. A definite reccomendation...
