Last year I reviewed the superb Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+, and now I have a brand new pair that I am giving away in a competition.
Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ Summary
The new plus model is a minor upgrade from the standard Melomania, switching the microUSB to USB-C.
The earbuds themselves are some of the best-reviewed earbuds on Amazon, and they have been universally well-reviewed by critics such as myself.
They don’t have any fancy active noise cancellation, but they make up for it with the overall sound quality. Unlike many of the random affordable Chinese brands that are available on Amazon, these are not excessively bass-heavy, so they are well-suited to people that prefer a more neutral sound.
The earbuds also have a companion app, and within this, you can customise the EQ. This will allow you to increase the bass if you do prefer that additional low end to your music.
These earbuds have an exceptional battery life, and they also have an extensive range of ear tips. This allows you to get the best fit possible which will then help you achieve the best sound possible.
At the time I reviewed them, they cost about £100, and they were a good buy back then. Recently, they have dropped the price down to an absolute bargain price of just £40 (for the white model). It looks like they are popular enough that the black ones are sold out.
These are such a good buy, I recommended them in my audio Christmas gift guide.

Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+ Giveaway
My normal giveaways are used review samples but don’t worry, I don’t give away used earbuds. These are brand new and in the cellophane wrap.
To enter, please follow me on Twitter (@mighty_gadget) or Instagram (mighty.gadget) and leave a comment below stating your Twitter/Insta handle and why you would like to win the Cambridge Audio Melomania 1+.
I will announce the winner on the morning of the 21st and aim to post them before Christmas (hopefully by the afternoon). They will probably be sent out by Royal Mail, so I’d say it is unlikely they will arrive for Christmas day, but I will try my best.

The earbuds definitely tick the boxes for me, I’ve never been too much of a fan of the extra bass a lot of headphones gives you. But interesting to have that equaliser to play around with too. You’ve got me interested!
I’m looking for a pair for the commute to work that doesn’t tangle me up!

Would love these to make listening to music at work easier
