Audio

Some time ago… Two audiophiles were seated in a bar when one was overheard suggesting wireless speakers.  He hasn’t been heard of since.  No seriously.  Friends don’t let friends mention wireless and high quality audio in the same sentence.  The mere thought of such is unheard of in audio enthusiast circles and I remember my forum search a few years …

A few weeks ago we did a report on the Platin Monaco 5.1 Wireless Home Cinema System and, well, we just can’t say enough about this system.  In a home where drilling holes in the floor and hiding speaker wires just isn’t possible, this COMPLETELY wireless speaker system did something that hasn’t been achieved in some four years of searching …

I hate wires!  I can remember a time several years back where my wife stood there hollering at me as I ripped the walls apart to bury cabling, and better yet, drilled holes in the hardwood to position the surround speakers.  Up until this moment in fact, I never considered the drop ceiling in the lower level of that home …

As a music lover, I have never been one for things that claim to boost sound or signal external to the music device itself.  I even hummed and hawed when  Ari asked, but hesitantly agreed to try out Helm Audio’s newest DB12 AAAMP Mobile Headphone Amplifier.  The DB 12, at least in my vision of things, is meant for smartphones …

The term of the day in the portable audio world is True Wireless Stereo, or TWS, and it is a  feature typically present in higher end Bluetooth headsets. We have in hand (or rather ear) the newest Huawei Freebuds 3 earphones and many seem to have tied the term TWS to this product.  Oddly enough, you won’t find it used …

Some time ago, I received an e-mail from a reader who introduced me to what he believed just may be the best in-ear ‘monitors’ ever made.  First off, I had never really considered the term ‘monitors’ for ear buds or in-ear headphones but I can promise you one thing… I will never again use the term ‘buds’ when it comes …

Let’s start this report by stating that I have never even come close to finding wireless headphones of any type appealing or worth my time.  Whether it be fit, battery life, or simple functionality, there has always been something that kept me away from jumping aboard.  In fact, the last time I gave a set any serious effort was back …

The easiest method of telling whether you really favor the sound and fit of a particular set of headphones is, quite simply, how much they are on your head.  In my case, I have long passed the burn in phase of these 1More H1707 Triple Driver’ and somehow find myself having returned to those old habits of late late night …

One can argue that the most intricate sense in the human body is the ability to listen. HyperX has been in the business of peripherals for a while now and today we are greatful for the opportunity to review their new Cloud Alpha headset.As HyperX is the leading sponsor at the Intel Masters gaming competition in addition to sponsoring many …
