Unitone HD-3030 stereo headphones

Advantages: Stereo sound
Disadvantages: Gets hot, especially if you are drinking a cup of tea at the time you are wearing them.

...Here are the specifications for the headphones: 1) The type of headphones are Electrodynamic 2) The frequency response is between 20 and 18,000Hz 3) The impedance is 32 ohms +/- 5% 4) The sensitivity is 105dB S.P.L. at 1kHz 5) There is an adapter plug which changes the plug size from 3.5mm to 6.3mm. The headphones have a stereo/mono switch. The stereo sound that comes from them is excellent. The headphones also have independent volume controls, which enable the user to vary them to suit the hearing capabilities of each ear. The headphones can feel very hot after a while. If you drink cold drinks, you can cool down when you have them on. If you have a hot drink when wearing the headphones, you will sweat. As you can see from the above picture, the cable on the headphones is coiled. If you are wiring them...

Review of Unitone HD-3030 stereo headphones

A mixed bag...

Advantages: Great quality audio, Rechargeable, about 8 hours per charge
Disadvantages: A little heavy, SERIOUS design flaw exists resulting in breakage.

...Bought from Ebay, brand new and unopened Price: £45 including delivery HP Branded but manufactured by Logitech. When my headphones arrived, I opened the package and found a charger and adaptor for the headphones, CD with drivers for palmtop, worldwide plug adaptors for the charger, spare foam pads for the headphones, carry case/bag and of course the headphones. Unfortunately these headphones cannot be used straight out of the box; they need charging before use and a new Bluetooth stack needs to be installed on your palmtop via the CDrom and your PC. On the side there are 5 buttons, one in the middle for Play and Pause, then four smaller buttons for Next and Last Tracks, Volume Up and Down. After setting everything up and charging, I paired the headphones with my iPAQ and it worked straight away. I couldn't believe...

Review of HP Bluetooth Stereo Headphones Headphones

Decent stereo headphones for home

Advantages: Price, durability and length of cable (long)
Disadvantages: Bulky, loose, lows sound average

...Okay, so I got these headphones because I needed some good stereo headphones to plug into my guitar amp for some late-night guitar practice. I found these at a Border's shop, and they came with the stereo jack adapter thing for an amp, so I bought it without a second thought (them being Sony an all). I really didn't like them at first because they made my guitar sound horrible, but now I suspect that something was wrong with my amp, as it sounds great with mp3 players and computers. Sound Quality Pretty good. Of course, being stereo headphones, they are supposed to represent loudspeakers, and so the sound pans from left to right very obviously. Though I enjoy that, some people don't, so take that into consideration. As I sit here listening to some jazz, I can say that the mid to high tones are very pronounced and dynamic...

Review of Sony MDR-XD 100

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

Sennheiser PX200 Stereo Bass Boost headphones

Advantages: Excellent sound reproduction, Lightweight
Disadvantages: Case a bit flimsy

...These sennheiser PX200 headphones are a pair of stereo headphnes with added bass boost. They give excellent sound reproduction, particularly with the bass frequencies, and no distorion of sound at high volumes. The gold plated stereo jack improves sound conductivity. The headphones come complete with carry case for easy storage. The headphones fold into the case and when closed, the case can be carried easily in a pocket or elsewhere. Getting the headphones working is easy, just pull them out of the case, unfold the sides and the earpieces and you're away. The earpads are cushioned bi-aural ones with a semi-bare centre, allowing sound waves to travel around the ear giving a surround-sound effect. The headphones are extremely light on the head and do not dig into your scalp or ears like many others do. To put away...

Review of Sennheiser PX200

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...

Review of Apple iPod Earphones

All join in with the Chorus: UC200 stereo pedal from Behringer.

Advantages: Great Value for money, Solidly built,
Disadvantages: battery access is a bit fiddly

...Oh my God, I here you say, not another effects pedal review. Don't worry, there's only one more to go in my collection. As with the other pedals this one has a solid plastic moulding with a slightly awkward to open battery compartment, accessed by pushing in the pedal hinge pins and lifting it off. Much better to use an external power supply, it saves money and broken fingernails. So what does a Chorus pedal do? Well it sits in the line between the guitar and amplifier and alters the signal. Basically it is a modulating effect which adds a slight highlight and a lowlight, to create a softened, even slightly ethereal tone to the sound. There are four controls that allow you to adjust the effect, Level, Tone, Rate and Depth, an input jack and two outputs so that you can use two amplifiers to create stereo effects. The controls...

Review of Behringer UC200 Ultra Chorus Stereo Effects Pedal

Get Connected to the STEREO MC's

Advantages: Good catchy tunes
Disadvantages: I can't find the disc

...I have liked the stereo Mc's for about a decade and had the album, but unfortunately due to my constant moving it got mislaid or lent out and forgotten. Anyhow I was recently asked if I would like a new album, after much deliberation I choose Connected. ***Band Members*** Rob, The Head, Owen If, Cath Coffey, Verona Davis and Andrea Groves. ***Front sleeve and inlay*** The front cover depicts the 6 band members on a stary, stormy night with the moon shining brightly behind them, with the earth looking like it should be the moon. The forground is a wild collection of plants, trees, flowers, mushrooms, a volcano and a snake The inlay has the lyrics to all 12 songs with white letters on a black background. ***Back Sleeve*** A black background with the playlist written on it in white, nice and simple ***Playlist...

Review of Connected - Stereo MC's

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...
