When I first reviewed the Hifiman Deva couple of years ago, I thought it was a unique product as there were no other open headphones that can be used wirelessly at the time. Two years later, the same still holds true. Now Hifiman has released an updated Deva Pro and the big question is, is […]

Best Noise-Canceling Headphones? | Airpods Max Review
Never thought I’d get my hands on a pair of the Apple Airpods Max due to its shortage during its launch. It looks quite funky in pictures but I would say it looks even more so in person. Is this the GOAT of all wireless noise-cancellers? Well, how do we even define that in the […]
Reclaiming the throne? | Bose QC45 Review
The noise-canceling headphone industry will not be where it is without Bose. Starting off with the QC3 in 2006, Bose has pioneered the innovation with succeeding releases that no other audio company does as well as they do, at least initially. In the past decade or so, offerings from Sony, Sennheiser, and more recently Apple, […]
Best Mid-fi Headphone? Hifiman Sundara Review
It’s always a treat to listen to headphones that you can categorize as good-sounding and knowing they don’t cost an arm and leg (still varies from person to person though). The HD660s reviewed last time sort of falls into that category, and so as the Hifiman Sundara that we’re gonna be reviewing today.
The Highly Competent Sennheiser HD660s
It’s hard to find a headphone enthusiast who is unfamiliar with both the Sennheiser HD600 and HD650 and the impact that they’ve had in this hobby. That’s the main reason why the release of the HD660s was such a big deal especially since Sennheiser is touting it be a clear upgrade over those two legendary […]
Hifiman HE400se Review | Audiophile Gateway Drug
If you tell me a couple of years ago that it is possible to get a planar magnetic headphone for less than $250, I would probably just laugh it off. But headphone tech is getting better. As ridiculous as the price of the flagship headphones have become, I think we can agree that the cheaper […]
Sennheiser’s New Studio Cans | The HD400 Pro
I’ve always been lukewarm about studio headphones, for one because I don’t do studio work hence I don’t need most of the features that come with it. Another reason is all of the ones that I’ve had experience with, just don’t sound good by default. Today’s headphones, the Sennheiser HD400 Pro kinda changes that experience […]
Hifiman Arya V2 (Non-Stealth) Review
The Hifiman Arya is arguably one of the most-loved headphones in the sub $2,000 range which is saying something considering the headphone has been out since 2018 and have even gone a couple of minor revisions. I had to pleasure to keep these headphones for more than 3 months which afforded me to produce an […]
