You probably know of the Marshall brand of guitar amplifiers, which have been rocking clubs and arenas since the 60s.

I’m lucky enough to be able to try out all the latest audio gear, so sometimes friends and family are surprised to see I’m not donning Bluetooth headphones.

Focal Elegia Review: Neutral hi-fi headphones you can actually commute with
The Focal Elegia is not your typical high-end headphone. After the highly successful Utopia and Clear, the Elegia is Focal Audio’s first contribution into the high-end closed market. Closed-back headphones have traditionally been something of a rarity in the high-end market, simply because physics makes it harder to reduce resonances and distortion on closed headphones, and limits the sense of space compared to open-back cans. дальше »

Google makes it easier to pair Bluetooth headphones to all your Android devices
Bluetooth headphones sound a lot better than they did a few years ago, but they’re still generally a pain in the butt to pair to multiple devices.

Review: Sennheiser’s Momentum True Wireless are the AirPods upgrade I’ve been waiting for

How to use Windows 10’s awesome 3D sound for headphones

Review: Sennheiser’s HD820 are superb, imperfect headphones like no other

Google’s USB-C Pixel Buds are kind of a steal at $30
I’ll be honest with you. When I reviewed the Pixel 3, I didn’t bother to give the included USB-C Pixel Buds – available separately for $30 – a fair shot. Just another cheap pair of plastic EarPod lookalikes, right? The first time I really listened to them happened to be right after spending an hour testing to the $4,000 Focal Utopia – some of the best headphones in the world – out of my $600 desktop amp. дальше »

Fidue Sirius A91 Review: Stellar earbuds with a sky-high price
Do you need to spend $900 for good earbuds? No. But spend a few minutes listening to the Fidue Sirius A91, and you might want to. I had to get the price out of the way. Not many people are willing to drop that amount of dough on full-size headphones, let alone earbuds – or more precisely, IEMs or in-ear monitors. дальше »

The Focal Elegia are $899 closed-back headphones that promise open-back sound
Earlier this year, I raved about the Focal Clear, a $1,500 pair of high-end heaphones. Not only does it sound good enough to justify the price – assuming you’re the type of person to even consider dropping $1,500 on headphones – they are also unusually easy to power from a smartphone or laptop. дальше »
