BlueAnt Stereo Headphones Hands On

Evan Selleck, Jan 8th 2011 Discuss [0]

While we were impressed with the S3 Compact Bluetooth speakerphone, it was the over-the-ear headphones that got all of our attention pretty quickly. We managed to get some time with the headphones, testing them against the noise of the entire showroom floor at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and we walked away both surprised, and pleased.

JH Audio JH16 Pro Review

Vincent Nguyen, Oct 29th 2010 Discuss [5]

In the world of earphones, there are some obvious tiers: the bundled earbuds that came with your PMP or cellphone and should probably be dumped straight away; their mainstream replacements; off-the-shelf in-ear monitors (IEMs); and then custom-molded IEMs. There’s also a less publicized hierarchy, of the audio craftsmen behind the IEMs themselves. Ask an audiophile their opinion of Jerry Harvey, and you can probably expect an hour or two of hero-worship; having tested out the new JHAudio JH16 Pro custom IEMs, we now know why. Check out the full review after the cut.

CeBIT 2010 isn't all about netbooks and tablets; there are peripherals there too.

Jabra Stone Review

Vincent Nguyen, Oct 19th 2009 Discuss [5]

Up until now, choosing a Bluetooth headset has demanded you pick between outright style and audio performance. Devices like the Plantronics Discovery 975 and the Jawbone PRIME have gone some way in disguising their boom microphones and preserving sound quality, but there’s still no mistaking that you’re wearing a Bluetooth headset. Into the fray steps the Jabra Stone, distinctive both for its curvaceous styling and its promises of boomless natural-sounding audio. Is your next Bluetooth headset a Stone’s throw away?

Sony Ericsson Motion Activated MH907 headphones: your ears’ remote control [Video]

Chris Davies, Sep 21st 2009 Discuss [0]

Sony Ericsson promised to revolutionise personal audio, and while that's so loaded with PR hyperbole we'd normally just throw any subsequent press release straight out of the window, it turns out their Motion Activated MH907 headphones are pretty nifty. The stereo headset is the first to use SensMe, where capacitive sensors in each earbud can track whether they're in your ears or not, and remotely control your cellphone accordingly.
