Headphones

For Bose, the Sport Open Earbuds bring the company’s audio prowess to an unusual design that tries to achieve a functional breakthrough.

Beats by Dr. Dre Studio 3 headphones are now available at Best Buy, and this is a pair of headphones you've got to hear to believe.

 I test a lot of headphones, and while just about any pair you get will insert music into your ears, when it comes to higher priced headphones, you want to make sure the sound quality is top notch. Do the new Sony MDR-XB950BT over-ear wireless headphones deliver?

I’m an easy to please gamer tired of all the clutter in my living room and home office.  I’m tired of having to buy a headset for my PC, XBox, Nintendo and Playstation systems because they’re only made and optimized for that specific console.  How hard would it be to have something that was all-encompassing, doesn’t break the bank and doesn’t skimp on sound quality?  Not hard at all according to Plantronics, who believe their RIG Headset is all this and more.  Click below for my review of this dynamic headset.

Inexpensive headphones are easy to find, and even premium headphones are becoming more common. But there's a lesser known category of ultra premium headphones. They can be quite expensive, but what do you get for the price? Read our review of the ultra-luxurious B&O Beoplay H9 wireless over-ear headphones.

A few weeks ago I launched myself into a fitness program that makes cross-fit look like a walk in the park with a bunch of puppies. Needless to say, it’s tough. So you can imagine how excited I was when I was asked to review three different pairs of wireless ear buds from Jabra. I mean, if any workout was going to test the limits of headphones, the one I’ve embarked on was definitely going to do the trick.

I love music. No matter where I am or what I’m doing, you can be sure that I have headphones of some sort near me, or on me. Needless to say I was pretty excited when I had the opportunity recently to review two models of Sony Wireless Stereo Headsets. After a week of testing, here’s my take on the two models.

When it comes to quality audio products, Bose is almost always at the top of the list. Similarly, as far as minimalistic, yet effective design is concerned, Bose consistently delivers. That’s why I when I was asked to review the Bose SoundLink II Over-Ear Wireless Headphones, I wasn’t at all surprised to discover that they lived up to the Bose reputation … with a couple of caveats, of course.

Chances are you’re too young to remember this, but there was a time when car audio was limited to AM radio or even 8-track tapes. Even today, many new cars ship with a standard entertainment system that doesn’t get much fancier than an in-dash CD player. Fortunately, Best Buy has an entire department dedicated to upgrading your ride with the latest in audio and other high tech gear, including emerging new platforms like Apple’s CarPlay. Whether you want a subwoofer powerful enough to rattle your entire block, Bluetooth handsfree capability, a navigation system, video playback or the ability to use Siri to find a favourite tune, Best Buy has you covered.

The Cristiano Ronaldo Roc Sport by Monster offers a great looking product. Can they live up to the hype and brand of global superstar Ronaldo? Take a closer look at two of the models, the Freedom wireless on-ear and the Black Platinum over-ear headphones to see if they should be on your shortlist.
