Not heard of BSE? We did not have that either, until we were contacted by the Swedish dealer. The abbreviation stands for Best Sound Electronics, and the company is from South Korea. The earplugs we have received for testing are made to specifications from Swedish Ilicon, which specializes in molded silicone pads. Which in turn …
Chinese ikko came straight into the favorites list when we tested the in-ear model ikko OH1 last year.

We recently tested the third generation of Bang & Olufsen Beoplay E8, which had been corrected for childhood diseases from the first two generations of completely wireless earplugs. But Bang & Olufsen had more up their sleeve: a sports version of the Beoplay E8 that has just landed in the reviewer’s ears. The Beoplay E8 …
They look like cheap AirPods copy. But the Timekettle M2 is more than the “original” can dream of. The great thing about these cheap earbuds is neither the protruding microphones, nor that they, unlike AirPods, can play music in aptX format. Instead, Timekettle with the M2 earbuds can translate everything you say into virtually any …

The JBL …
Wireless earbuds that are wholly free of wires are hugely popular. Two small earbuds are all you need to hear music on your way to work, just relaxing or exercising.

Last winter, we tested the wireless Jabra Elite 75t earbuds, which we praised to the skies for highly effective passive noise reduction, excellent fit and outstanding sound quality with plenty of depth.

Sennheiser is among our all-time favourites for completely wireless earbuds. Momentum True Wireless 1 was brilliant with a beautiful sound and a good fit and a real premium feel. There aren’t many wireless earbuds on the market that can match Momentum True Wireless in terms of sound quality. Perhaps none, because if I were to …
Sol Republic is a slightly forgotten brand in Scandinavia, which is a pity. For this price range, they are a set of really nice headphones for a youthful target market. Considering the target market, the black model looks slightly subdued, but the blue is considerably more flashy. They feel a bit like plastic, but are …
Autumn is here, and with the turn of the season, the diseases also come in a row. And what is worse than lying down and coughing and raking in bed, and chewing headache tablets and throat lozenges, while all you want is a good night’s sleep? Yes, I will tell you this: to lie beside a man …
With the launch of Beoplay E6, Bang & Olufsen is trying to rectify one of the failures of the past – the otherwise quite well-playing Beoplay H5. As mentioned, the Beoplay E6 builds on the Beoplay H5, which can be seen in the design, but can also be heard on the sound profile. The two models …
Bose is known for making some well-fitting, in-ear headphones that, in particular, perform well. Soundsport Pulse is no exception. The model builds further on the SoundSport Wireless, and has. as its name suggests, a heart rate monitor thrown in on the one side.
