    Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) P7 Stereo Headphone review for 2015.

    Here is the review of my second P7 - the first one was traded off in 2013, which I regret. Still, this was an opportunity to see if the current production of this headphone changed in any respect, and also to apply my Audioforge experience to find any major variances from neutral in the sound...

    Angle & Curve CarbonCans "Made in England" Headphone review

    Summary of this new headphone: Shy of neutral on both ends. Very good and prominent midrange sound. Very smooth and clear. This is a most unusual signature in this price range (~$160 USD), and probably won't appeal to users who like a warm bass with significant impact. I like it a lot, and even...

    B&W P5 Series 2 On-ear Stereo Headphone review

    I bought the P5 Series 2 at the Apple Store - it was one of the safest buys I've made, since the B&W quality and decent sound are always a safe bet, even at the premium price. It might not actually sound as good as the original P5 (don't know), but I haven't had the original for more than a...

    Bose QC-25 Around-ear Noise Canceling Stereo Headphone review

    Here's the Bose QC-25 - the most famous of the noise cancelers I think. And it's extremely good at canceling noise, with a couple minor caveats. From what I hear with this headphone, they managed to not only be the best at noise cancellation, but they produced a near-perfect audiophile...

    Noontec Zoro II On-ear Portable Stereo Headphone review

    Here's an interesting headphone - from several sources I've gleaned the opinion that the new Zoro II is aimed toward competing with the Beats Solo2, and given the reviews earned by the Solo2 (particularly at a very prestigous testing site), the Zoro-II's ambition is great indeed. And the...

    Bang & Olufsen (B&O) H2 On-ear Stereo Headphone review

    Here's a nice surprise - when this was announced, of course I wanted one, but I had doubts that it would compare favorably to the B&O H6 that cost twice as much, noting that the H6 was far from perfect itself. Not to worry - the H2 has comparable physical quality, although it's appointed much...

    AIAIAI Tracks On-ear Stereo Headphone review

    I had this AIAIAI Tracks on my radar for a long time, so in this lull after the holidays, I decided to get it and shake it down. It's very bright, or more specifically, has a very large peak around 3 khz, which is the opposite of most small on-ear headphones these days. Still, the magic of...

    Sennheiser PX-100-II On-ear Stereo Headphone review

    This is a long-existing headphone with a well-deserved reputation for sound quality -vs- size and cost, yet being open-back it is severely restricted in where it can be used. I had this in the closet for years due to the earpads being worn out, and taking it out a few days ago the earpads had...

    V-MODA LP Around-Ear Portable Stereo Headphone review

    Here is a headphone that I missed on the original release, but are now being closed out at amazing prices, in the U.S. at least. It's dark, it's bassy, and the details are in the review. I love how comfortable this is, in spite of using the standard earpads. From all I can see, the physical...
