I am a big fan of the Jabra Elite earbuds, and I think they are the best brand for anyone that uses earbuds for a lot of fitness. Most brands only provide an IPX4 rating for their earbuds, which is generally good enough, but Jabra offers a far superior IP55 or IP57 rating, depending on…
Yesterday, Creative announced the Stage SE soundbar, which is designed to be small enough to fit under a monitor. It is on the affordable end of the spectrum, priced at just £70. Only the Creative Stage Air V2 is cheaper. Looking at the specification and price, it seems like a bit of an odd fit….
I reviewed the Jabra Elite 75t back in 2019 and loved them; they were perfect for my fitness focussed needs. A year later, I reviewed the flagship Jabra Elite 85t, which I was equally impressed with. I review a lot of earbuds, and I have around six pairs in rotation that suit my personal needs….
The Sony LinkBuds S are the first earbuds I have had a chance to review from Sony. They were announced in May 2022. Even though these share the same name as the original LinkBuds, they are not alike. The original LinkBuds had that weird open-ring concept that allows you to have conversations and be environmentally…
Earlier this week, Sonos announced two new speakers, the Era 300 and Era 100. The Era 100 is a replacement for the Sonos One, with the One only being available until stock runs out. The Sonos Era 300 appears to be a new product or a replacement for the long-dead Play:3. The Play:3 was discontinued…
A couple of days ago, Sonos had one of its biggest product launches in a couple of years. They announced the Era 100 and Era 300, ditching the previous naming scheme they have used for years. The Sonos Era 300 is perhaps the most interesting of the two as it doesn’t really replace any speaker….
I have previously reviewed the attractive Audio Pro C5 MKII and the superb Audio Pro A48 floor-standing speakers. I have now been sent the Audio Pro A15. This is one of the few portable speakers on the market that uses both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It is also IP-rated, making it suitable for outdoor use. It…
Final is a renowned Japanese brand known for its audiophile-grade earphones and headphones. They have traditionally focussed on wired overhead headphones and in-ear earphones covering a wide spectrum of price points. The Final E1000 earphones can be bought for just £15, but on the other end of the spectrum, you have the A8000 earphones at…
The Edifier WH950NB ANC headphones are the latest launch from Edifier and their new flagship ANC headphones which I assume replace the ageing W860NB. The Edifier WH950NB borders on premium-priced products, but they have sensibly priced them well below options from top brands, including Sony’s WH-1000XM5 or the Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700. Specification Design…
I previously reviewed the Anker Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro and loved them, I still recommend them now. Recently, Anker launched the Soundcore Liberty 4, these are not the Pro model, but they seem to be the direct replacement for the Liberty 3 Pro. Perhaps a Pro model will come at a later date, but if…
