When you are consistently using Apple’s Earbuds, it is hard to fathom sitting still to listen to music, especially when the premise of the Earbuds is to have your music available to you while you are on-the-go. So, when a set of headphones come along that force you to sit back and just listen to the music it is almost …

We are at a bit of a loss right now as…well to start from the beginning we received a set of headphones unexpectedly last month and never thought much of them…so they sat.  To start, the exterior packaging was no more than a small 3″x3″ cardboard case, something that one might find if they walked into Wal-Mart looking for a …

Gaming headsets typically only require a few main aspects to gain elite status. To achieve this status headsets must provide superior audio quality through the headset, the microphone must accurately reproduce your voice to your fellow guild members or Ventrilo group, and that the headset itself is comfortable to wear.

I’m sitting here 30,000 feet above ground level, listening to remixes of old songs while tapping away at my computer. While the roar of the engines might not be silenced by the pair of Fanny Wang Earbuds pressed into my ears, nor is the sound blasting through their speakers anything to write about, they are comfortable and I haven’t even …

Earlier this year Sennheiser released Presence, a Bluetooth headset geared towards business professional’s on-the-go, and Technology X got the opportunity of taking one for a test drive. For those of you who are not familiar with Sennheiser, they are a German based company that has been producing audio electronics for the past 70 years. Their focus ranges from aviation headsets …

There’s nothing worse than yanking your laptop off the table as you stand up or pulling the headphones right out of your ears when they get caught on something. Mobility has become a major focus for everyone, and bluetooth technology has been at the center of it, many devices and products having some sort of wireless alternative. The Motorola S10-HD …
