First, a big thanks to Rocky (rockywu0204 on Head-Fi) at DUNU for the review sample!  This is the DUNU DN-23 Landmine in-ear headphone. It's an incredible headphone. Preferred tips - Stock narrow nozzle tips, Shure Orange foam, Monster Supertips Foam Accessories - Hard case, Soft pouch, 3 sets of single flange tips in 3 sizes (Narrow nozzle, wide nozzle, and hybrid styles), 1 pair of bi-flange tips, 1/4' adapter, airplane adapter, shirt clip. Packaging - DUNU uses similar packaging for all of its IEMs. If you're familiar with it, then...

Thanks to NoiseHush for the review sample!! Here we have the NoiseHush i7 Noise Cancelling headphones.    These headphones have some high points, but fall a bit short in terms of sound.   Accessories - Carrying case, airplane adapter, 3.5mm to 3.5mm headphone cable (around 6' I would guess)   Build - The i7 is made almost entirely out of plastic. It doesn't feel too sturdy, but I don't think I would call it flimsy. It's pretty lightweight overall. On the left cup, the electroplated plastic (I'm not sure if that's actually what it is, or if...

Before I begin, I must thank the great folks over at Audio Technica for sending me a pair of these headphones for review! Audio Technica is a well-known brand here on Head-Fi, and rightfully so.  The ATH-PRO500MK2 are easily one of the best headphones that I've heard at the street value of $100. No doubt about it. Here we go! Accessories - Pleather carrying pouch, 3.5mm to 6.3mm (1/8" to 1/4") adapter, 2 cables: One straight, one coiled Build - On terms of build quality, my expectations were not only met, but they were exceeded. The...

Thanks to iDance again for the review sample! Now, you might be thinking to yourself right now, 'Why would a company name their headphones 'Kiss Me?" Or possibly, "They look strange, and probably sound worse." Surprisingly, the iDance Kiss Me is not bad.  Unlike some other iDance headphones I have reviewed, these have proven to be surprisingly decent. These come with a voucher for two softwares: PCDJ 3DEX LE (a DJ software) and Magix Mufin (a music player) Build and Design - While the Kiss Me headphones look blatantly flashy and...

Here, we have the new Revo Wireless on-ear headphones from Jabra, a company that's probably pretty obscure here on the lands of Head-Fi. Now, before I begin, I have to give a big thanks to the people over at Jabra for sending me a pair of these to review.  When I received the package, I noticed that the Revo Wireless box was very well made. The outer portion is made completely of hard plastic. It has a yellow silicone stripe on the front with an indent that reads "Revo Wireless' Inside was a nice plethora of papers and such (Including the...

Thanks to iDance for the headphone sample to review! I'm just going to get right to the review Build - Other than the thin cable, it doesn't feel too bad. The cups have a nice matte finish. Headband also has a nice material on it. The hinges are a bit stiff though. Like I said though, the cable is pretty thin. It does, however, have an in-line mic, so that's a plus for smartphone users.  As for durability, the Disco feels pretty sturdy overall, except for the cable.  Comfort - The gold-covered pads can get really warm pretty quickly. I...

Thanks again to iDance for the review sample! These are another victim of the 'fashion-over-performance' trend Build and Design - Sure, they look flashy and attractive, but they don't feel it. Right away, I could tell that these were very poorly built. Very cheap feeling cups, skimpy and flimsy cup sliders, thin cable, stiff pads. Yeah, a lot of fashion headphones are similar to that, but how do they feel when worn? They're atrocious. The cup sliders are at an angle that doesn't accommodate the human head. When extended, the bottom parts of...

Thanks to iDance for sending these to me to review! We all know that headphones can be fashionable and sound good at the same time, right? A few companies combine those two things into a headphone and you get a great product! But these.. Appearance to functionality ratio is so lopsided towards appearance, that I can't even begin to explain it without giving a good planning ahead of time. Now, let's begin. Build - Right away, as I opened the box to these, I could feel that they were pretty poorly built. The plastic cups are very fragile...

Thanks to RHA for sending me a pair of these to review! What we have here is a headphone that I can only describe as incredible. Very impressive Accessories - 3 sizes of round silicone tips and soft carrying pouch. Build and Design- The MA-350 has a very nice aluminum housing that holds the driver. Simple, yet shows some elegance. Long strain reliefs show increased durability. Cloth-sheathed cord appears very durable. Doesn't appear to be prone to memory effects. With the cable being covered in cloth, microphonics can be quite bothersome if...

First, I would like to thank Rockit Sounds for giving me a 50% discount on these for this review.   The Rockit Sounds R-50 is unreal.   The moment the R-50 arrived at my house, I was ecstatic and literally jumping for joy. I had heard so much about these, I just had to have the experience of actually hearing them.  I took them out of their container and gazed upon what would become my favorite IEM. Dual balanced armatures, braided cables; it was perfect. I put them in, and began to have a sonic experience that I'd not ever heard from an IEM...

Big thanks to the people at Yurbuds for sending me these for review! Now, before I begin, I feel the need to point out a few things first about these headphones: The Yurbuds Duro, or even the entire Yurbuds lineup as a whole, is definitely not created with our audience (audio enthusiasts) in mind. These headphones are aimed at athletes, and that's who they work best for. Onto the review! The Yurbuds Ironman Inspire Duro are a unique set of headphones. They offer athletes a fit that will not only be very comfortable, but will never fall...

First, let me thank the people over at Audio-Technica for sending me a sample of these for review. You rock! I was a bit skeptical at first about how these would sound, but when I put them on and started listening, I was instantly blown away. These headphones really make electronic music shine, especially with more atmospheric songs. DnB, electro and dubstep are perfectly reproduced. However, these don't just make electronic music sound incredible, but everything I tried with them sounded incredible; from Mozart, to Styx, all the way to Skrillex...

How can I start this review.. There are so many incredible things that I can say about the VSonic VC02. So, so many. I came across the VC02 thread one day, and I felt compelled to buy a pair within minutes of reading. From what others were saying, it seemed the VC02 was outstanding.  When my VC02 arrived, I was extremely excited. Never had I been so excited about a pair of headphones before. The box was similar to other VSonic boxes- it showcased the VC02 and its very large selection of colorful hybrid tips. When I opened the box, I was...

What can I say about these? I saw a lot of people going for the Awei branded items on eBay, so I got one myself. They were surprisingly good and surprisingly bad at the same time. I will explain. Pros Housing build - For $2, an aluminum housing is quite exceptional. Accessories - While the Awei K80 only comes with one pair of tips, they are surprisingly pretty high quality. Somewhat thick silicone and a sturdy center hole. Another wow-factor was that these come with a carrying pouch! It feels made out of pleather or even actual leather, but...

I purchased these IEMs after reading about them in ljokerl's Multi IEM review thread. Needless to say, the sound was different than what I expected.  Build - These are very, very well built IEMs. Iron housing, good stress relievers, and a cable that flexes with ease. Build was absolutely stunning.  Isolation -  These isolated very well, at least for me. Never had better isolation from an IEM in this price range before. Comfort - The comfort on these were absolutely atrocious. I literally got a headache within minutes of use. They really did...

I got these because they were cheap. No other reason. I wasn't expecting much at all, but I was expecting them to be better than $1 buds by Vibe Sound. They weren't.   Sound - No earbud/IEM/whatever has ever sounded this bad to me.    Highs - What highs?   Mids - I've never heard an earphone that has overpowering mids before these. Overpowering and sound like a piece of mud inside of a cotton ball wrapped in masking tape, placed 20 feet to one's sides.   Bass - Sounds distant, if it even shows up at all.   Design - I like the...

I honestly don't even know why I got these. But I did.   For $7, these are very nice, closed, on-ear headphones. I haven't really seen a pair this cheap that has anything other than cheap foam earpads. It still surprises me. Frequency Response - 60Hz - 20KHz Isolation - These isolate pretty well, astonishingly. Of course they fail in comparison to more expensive on-ear and over-ear headphones, but for what they are, they isolate well.   Comfort - Eh. Earpads are nice, but the headband is pretty uncomfortable. Hurts my head after about...

For a pair of headphones that are only $30, I was blown away by these. They are the best headphones I've heard out of all headphones at this price.   Compared these to some headphones in a similar price range   Auvio HF202 ($40) Koss UR/20 ($25) EarPollution Mogul ($36)   Note- Yes, I realize that the Mogul headphones are terrible, but they fit the price range.   Highs - Highs are clean, crisp, and definitely not fatiguing whatsoever. Better than all of the ones I compared it to.   Mids - Surprisingly good sounding. Like most...

I've heard the XB500 many times before actually being able to give a good review on it. Each time I put it on, I'm always very disappointed. Back before I was into higher quality audio like I am now, I had always judged a headphone on how clean sounding it was. Mid bass bloat was what I tried to stay away from most. I am SO glad I didn't purchase these before then. I would have been upset with how they sound. When the term 'bass' comes to mind, I think of earth-shaking lows at or under 80Hz. To my ears, these are warm bloat cans that don't have...

I purchased these headphones back when I didn't know that much about headphones, but, now that I know a lot more (thanks to you guys), I can see that these headphones were definitely a good purchase.   Highs - The highs produced with these headphones are extremely crisp sounding and clear. Little distortion. They are not harsh whatsoever either.   Mids - Mids are present and not generally recessed. Clean and clear.   Lows/Bass - These headphones have clear bass that doesn't overpower any other range of frequencies    Soundstage - Not...
