Argon Audio Quiet Storm

It was with some anticipation that we received the Argon Audio Quiet Storm for testing. The competition for wireless headphones is admittedly fierce and relentless. But we’ve tested a number of products from Argon, and they’ve often impressed us with their sound quality at a very accessible price. The Argon Audio Forte A5 MK 2, …

JBL Tour Pro 2

When I tested the Tour Pro+, I was very excited, especially about the EQ settings. It was possible to adjust the frequency curve just enough to achieve the desired sound. The ease of use, on the other hand, is so similar on most good earplugs that it was difficult to distinguish the Tour Pro+ from …

Yamaha TW-E7B

The market for completely wireless earbuds has become very crowded, with a few standing out among a large crowd of mediocre ones. With its new top model TW-E7B, Yamaha wants to carve out a place for itself in the premium segment and has invested in large 10 mm drivers to reproduce the music with the …

Bowers & Wilkins Px8

When I tested the Px7 S2, I had no doubt that this was a new favourite in the all-important premium class around €400. At that level, you’re up against giants like Sony and Bose, and while B&W may not be at the top of the noise reduction league, it has significantly better sound quality. And …

Nothing’s stated goal is to make consumer electronics products exciting again. In a market that has become a bit boring, this is a noble intention. And …

Focal Bathys

It’s been five years since Focal launched its first wireless headphones, Listen Wireless. The price was affordable, by Focal standards, with a price tag of around €270. With good and potent sound, just a tad harsh. Active noise cancellation, on the other hand, was lacking. The Listen Wireless was a real addition to the headphone …

Jabra Elite 5

It’s not often that I get to review earbuds. Or any audio products for that matter. My hi-fi enthusiast colleagues are much better at that than I am. But every once in a while, a product comes along that really speaks to everyone, and that’s when I get to give it a try. Such a …

Sony LinkBuds S SPREAD

Sony LinkBuds S

Just recently, Sony launched LinkBuds, a completely new type of product. Namely, a pair of wireless and completely open earbuds. The idea was that they could stay in your ears all day, as sound from the environment gets through while you listen to audiobooks, podcasts, news or even music. And while you’re fishing, in the …

Shure Aonic 40

When Shure launched their first noise-cancelling headphones, the Aonic 50, I was more than excited. Superb sound quality, EQ in the app and great fit. The noise reduction was only so-so, but it did what it was supposed to. Shure had simply nailed it on the first try! What I missed most was the ability …

Sony WH 1000XM5 2 scaled 1

Sony WH-1000XM5

Every time Sony has launched a new top-of-the-range wireless noise-cancelling headphone in recent years, they’ve been their own worst competitor. But as long as they made something better than its predecessor, they knew they had a winner. And I brought out the superlatives myself when I tested the WH-1000XM4 in the fall of 2020. But …
