Sony Linkbuds S Impressions Thread
I don't think these new Linkbuds S are getting the attention they deserve! :xf_cool: I took a gamble on a pair of these, doing something I rarely do especially on Sony gear... I paid full retail! My reasoning was pretty simple, all the reviews I read or watched showed a microphone that was...- dweaver

Sony WH-H910N discussion.
I see Sony is releasing a new version on the bluetooth H.ear headphone WH-H910N. I am intrigued. It is obviously meant to be below the MDR-1000XM3 but this does have to mean it will be bad. The use of a 25mm driver intrigues me. Could this driver change bring a more balanced signature? The only...- dweaver

Any advice on adhesive accoustic vents in regards to buying them?
I bought a pair of 100ABN headphones that sound great except for wind noise through the mic holes and the bass port. I have found some foam to fill in bass port which helps a bit and if I taoe the mic holes that works as well. Unfortunately the tape impairs the microphones efficiency. So I have...- dweaver

KEF M100 and M400 impression and review thread.
I noticed 2 new KEF headphones at a local Visions Electronics store here in Canada and tried to find some reviews on them. Sadly both models have almost no information on the internet and only 1 review of the M400 on ear headphone. The M100 is pretty much unknown. So in a moment of weakness and...- dweaver

I picked up a pair of these from Visions Electronics in Canada for $48 (Sale until Sunday) and see them for sale on Monster's website for $49 and at that price they are a steal in my opinion. I have seen comments that they look like the Tributes and that was my initial thought as well...- dweaver
