Another Basshead Can: JBL J55 Headphone Review

If you’re like me and think that JBL only makes speakers then you’re in for a surprise. Because they recently have started making headphones again and this time , the headphones are catered more to the general consumers. Let’s start  with their entry level can, the JBL J55.

The Fantastic Etymotic HF5 IEM

For Etymotic, it’s always been neutrality and accuracy. Aside from in-ear monitors, they’re also known for making hearing aids and they’ve been doing this for a long time. That gives you an idea that they really know their stuff.  In this review, we will be showcasing the Etymotic HF5 which sits under their flagship ER4.

The AKG K518LE Basshead Cans

Like most headphone enthusiasts, I prefer a sound signature that is as close as possible to neutrality. Sure I can use some warmth here or an extra sparkle there but ideally a flat signature is what I would say the ideal one for my preference. However, there are times where I enjoy a ‘fun sound’ signature and by that I’m referring to one having an accentuated bass response.  That said, it’s not surprising that I liked AKG K518LE which is the featured headphone in this review.

Merry Christmas to Everyone!

Make sure to enjoy the holidays and eat a lot of good food as this only happens once a year. Well, maybe not for others. 🙂

Sony MDR-1R Headphone Preview

Depending on who you talk to, Sony is either a good or bad headphone company. Their most popular headphone is the V6 and the variations of it but aside from that, most of their offerings I would say are tuned for the typical music listener’s ears and not really for audiophiles (i.e. lots of ‘oomph’ on the sound signature).  However, not a lot of people realize that Sony made some expensive headphones as well with the MDR R10 and even Sony Qualia which both cost well over $1000. Both headphones have been discontinued since.

Then there’s the Sony MDR-1R line.
