Sineaptic SE-1 Preview: What the Heck is a Ribbon Headphone?!?!

Sineaptic SE-1 First Listen!

This is one of the most exotic diaphragm designs I’ve ever taken for a test drive, but thankfully this isn’t an exotically priced headphone. Sineaptic delivers one of the most articulate sounds I’ve ever heard near this price point, and it’s a Bluetooth headphone too!

But what the heck is a RIBBON Headphone??? Continue reading “Sineaptic SE-1 Preview: What the Heck is a Ribbon Headphone?!?!”

OnePlus Buds Pro 2 Review: Putting AirPods Pro 2 on Notice…

OnePlus took the wraps off their new phone, and I have a series of videos out now to see how the OnePlus 11 is performing and competing.

OnePlus ALSO revealed their new true wireless OnePlus Buds Pro 2, and I can share some thoughts on using them WITH the OnePlus 11!

I don’t feel OnePlus really gets enough credit for making nice accessories.

Sure, the watch was a bit of a bust, but chargers, cases, and audio gear have generally been top tier. As an ecosystem of products, OnePlus punches higher than the coverage they usually receive.

Specifically audio gear, I’ve genuinely been pleased with OP earbuds going all the way back to their dual driver neckband.

The OnePlus Buds Pro 2 carry on this tradition, with fantastic tech features, very good audio quality, and a terrific performance for the price. Continue reading “OnePlus Buds Pro 2 Review: Putting AirPods Pro 2 on Notice…”

JBL Quantum TWS: The BEST Wireless Earbuds for the Steam Deck!

This is a great option I hope becomes a more popular trend…

MediaTek sent me the JBL Quantum True Wireless earbuds to take on a test drive, and I’m really glad they did.

We’re trying to do a lot with Bluetooth these days, and sometimes we’re forcing Bluetooth into situations it wasn’t really designed for. We’ve gotten pretty good at augmenting Bluetooth for better quality and latency, but at the end of the day, it’s still Bluetooth.

There’s a frustrating aspect to our current earbud market, where host devices and earbuds have to match to get all the benefits of a new audio codec. We have several flavors of audio signal now. If your phone, tablet, console, or PC don’t speak the same codec “language” as your headphones, then you don’t get all the fancy new features.

There is a way around that, and gamers have been using it for YEARS on wireless gaming headsets. Continue reading “JBL Quantum TWS: The BEST Wireless Earbuds for the Steam Deck!”
