Headphones

We like Sennheiser's CX880i's a lot, with their great sense of verve and drive, but there's also a thin edge there that some might not like

There's a lot to like about these Phonak cans, and despite the lack of some dynamics we'd recommend them

They're trying to break the mould with a new type of fit, but these Urbanears just haven't got what it takes

The styling is certainly in-your-face, but these Powerbeats have great accuracy and control to offer

These Shure buds have a great sense of detailing, although some may find them too analytical in their presentation

An accomplished design that's pretty much nailed the microphone-meets-headphones category

These Audio Technica's aren't all bad - we like that microphone positioning, but unfortunately the sound and build belies the budget feel

First off the blocks for Swedish manufacturer Nocs, the NS200s are a weighty and enjoyable listen that are great value for the money

Possessing more then a touch of bling, the iBeats offer a great noise-isolation seal and smooth, flexible bass as well

There's much to recommend these over-ear cans, but at the money we'd want a better tonal balance
