Listening to my favorite music tracks in high volume levels has always been one of my favorite hobbies and that applies not only when I’m at home or in my car but also when I’m on vacation (like now). However although both when I’m at home or in my car I’ve made certain to have a decent amount of volume to cover my needs the same does not really apply when I’m away since the majority of portable speakers are not much larger than a can of soda and thus the volume levels produced (although quite good in some cases) are nowhere close to the ones a complete speaker system is able to. Well luckily this industry never ceases to amaze me and so today we will be taking a look at the latest wireless portable speaker by TDK the quite massive A73 Boombox.

Although the trend of our times demands from pretty much every electronic device to be connected wirelessly to others i doubt we will see the end of wires any time soon since as we all know they do allow data (regardless of type) to be transferred better and faster. This is even more important to audiophiles since audio streaming using both Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi connections is indeed inferior to that of regular wired connections and thus i don't think the day when they will choose to replace that is near. Needless to say the same applies for earphones but with the current number of available models in the market from low and up to enthusiast grade ones choosing the right one for you is not an easy task even if you know what you want. Naturally high and enthusiast level audio products always tend to cost many times more than low/mid-end ones but fortunately Nuforce with their latest NE-700M earset aims to change that for the best.

Zowie nous a envoyé un Hammer, casque indéniablement spécifique au niveau du look et de la couleur. Mais, il s'agissait aussi d'un casque qui n'a pas évolué depuis un bout de temps. Du coup, nous l'avons reçu quasiment en même temps que la nouveauté casque Zowie, le Mashu. Casque qui arbore un look bien plus moderne et plus consensuel. Cela dit, comme à chaque fois, en bons intransigeants que nous sommes, nous préférons un casque moche à l'excellent son à un beau casque accompagné d'une bouillie sonore. Du coup, nous allons soumettre le Mashu à l'épreuve de nos DAC mais aussi de nos délicates et sensibles oreilles.

Mit dem neuen QPAD QH-90 High-End-Headset versucht QPAD sich nun auch im mittleren bis oberen Preissegment und will somit gegen bekannte Platzhirschen wie Sennheiser, Creative oder Logitech antreten. Ob dies dem Unternehmen mit schwedischen Wurzeln sowie dem 100 Euro teuren QH-90 Headset gelingt, klären wir im nachfolgenden Testbericht und erörtern die Stärken und Schwächen des Kopfhörers.

There’s lots of gaming headsets compatible with computers and gaming consoles, but until now, there wasn’t a headset that had a solution to receiving phone calls during gaming sessions. Plantronics newly announced RIG allows one to continue to play their game while receiving and answering calls from the headset alone. It’s rather ingenious how it’s implemented, probably inspired by Plantronics experience with mobile and business headsets. An in-line switch toggles the microphone to receive between Game Mode and Mobile Mode...

Nous avons eu le plaisir de recevoir un pack envoyé par Attitude One. Pour la petite histoire, Attitude One est basé au pays des hamburgers et des Dodge Viper, et est créé en 2011. Ce fabricant se lance sur le secteur du matériel gaming. Pour ce faire, il va proposer un certain nombre de tapis, simples tissus, un repose-poignet mais aussi des casques. Ceux-ci seront disponibles en deux versions. Le Tungunska, c'est son petit nom, existe donc en 7.1 et en classique stéréo. A priori, le leitmotiv d'Attitude One se résume à : agressivité sur les prix puisque effectivement, le positionnement tarifaire est plutôt placé vers le bas. Reste à savoir encore une fois si ce leitmotiv s'accompagne de qualité.

Whenever we hear the term Bluetooth wireless headsets the first thing that naturally comes to mind are the typical around the ear models we use with smartphones for hands free calls like the Voyager Legend by Plantronics or the MOTION by Jabra. However lately many people turn towards another less popular type which basically consists from two parts, a set of earphones and a Bluetooth receiver/transmitter. The overall size of the unit may not be as "portable" as the usual Bluetooth wireless headsets but it has three positives that we can't simply ignore. So first of all it offers stereo sound which means that not only can you answer/make calls and listen to the other person from both ears but you can also listen to music a lot better than with a single monophonic headset. The other plus is that since the Bluetooth receiver/transmitter is placed on the far end you can place it far away from your head and although so far there are no indications that Bluetooth connectivity can affect us in any way still this makes people feel safer and i can understand the why. Finally since the earphones have very little weight it can be used by people while jogging or exercising without falling off (or at least not as much). Antec mobile products chose to go with this solution and so today we will be taking a look at their ISO Noise-Canceling Bluetooth Headphones.

Obwohl Logitech hauptsächlich im Bereich des Computer-Zubehörs präsent ist, bietet der Schweizer Hersteller seit geraumer Zeit unter dem "Ultimate Ears"-Brand unter anderem hochwertige Kopfhörer an, welche auf die Nutzung mit dem Smartphone oder MP3-Player angepasst sind. Wir haben uns gleich drei Modelle der Ultimate-Ears-Serie in Form der UE 4000, UE 6000 und UE 9000 in die Redaktion geholt und testen, ob die Headphones dem Preis von 100 bis hin zu 350 Euro gerecht werden.
