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. They cost more than wired earbuds and battery life is relatively limited. Four to five hours and if they don’t sit properly in your ears …
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. Now their successor, the Jabra Elite Active 75t earbuds, have landed on our test bench and you must forgive us if reading this …
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 …
The Danish SteelSeries is a popular brand with gamers. Both with its own products and as a supplier for others. Among other uses, their keyboards are used in MSi gaming machines. The Arctis Pro is the big brother to the Arctis series. In the Pro series, the materials are more costly. Steel replaces plastic in …
If you have not heard proper high-end sound before, I would almost call you lucky. Because if you have heard a stereo system for 100,000 kroner and higher, it will be a little shocking to go back to the soundboard in the living room afterwards. Maybe just as well not to know what to miss. …
The Sennheiser headphone giant has not just one, but two top models in active noise reduction (ANC) headphones, and both have now come in new generations: Momentum 3 Wireless for “nice” use in the office and PXC 550-II for commuting and travel use. The Sennheiser PXC 550-II is a discreet and relatively compact over-ear model. …
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 …
When the first Beats model Studio saw the light of day in 2008, the headset market exploded, never to look back. Suddenly they saw the youth with heavy bells on their heads, rather than the pitiful earplugs that came with the music players. The fact that hi-fi enthusiasts frown their nose on Beats is completely …
It’s been two years since Bowers & Wilkins’ first attempt at a noise-canceling headphone called the PX. It gave a real sense of luxury that even B&O had to envy them, and with a round and pleasant sound. But one had made a couple of strange choices, for example in that one cannot choose the …
If you only want one pair of headphones, they should be wireless and definitely feature active noise cancellation. Sony WH-1000XM3! Therefore, it’s no big surprise that Bose QC35 are the best-selling headphones on the market. However, the best performing ones in our opinion are the Sony WH-1000XM2. Better sound than Bose, and slightly better noise cancelling. …
It was a surprise – though not the biggest ever – when Dali launched two headphones at the IFA trade fair in Berlin in September 2019. Surprising because the manufacturer is otherwise only known for its speakers. But still not so shocking, since headphones is a market that just keeps growing. These are the IO-4 …
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 …
These are also available in a wired version, but in this case, it is the wireless that is applicable. As the name suggests, they have a reflex strip on the wire so you are visible when running in the dark. They feel practical more than luxurious, but the quality of the make seems good. Moreover, …
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. It works well, and substitutes nicely for a smartwatch or a tracker. …
