Let's Talk Tech
TCL is such a fun company to cover. The MOVEAUDIO S600 fall right in line with the company’s other offerings. Tech forward earbuds with good sound quality at a VERY competitive price.

I certainly have a reputation for being the CABLED audio nerd. I genuinely believe in cabled audio as the best solution for quality and consistency. That does NOT mean I don’t enjoy some Bluetooth solutions for convenience and noise reduction. I’m not about to take my really fancy open-back cans on a road trip or flight.
The headphones I’ve been using the most over the last two years took a dive onto tile, and unfortunately did not survive. My Wife took pity on me, and for my birthday, she hooked me up with a pair of Sony WH-1000XM4s!
In a fancy blue color no less.
Using them for a couple days now, I’m as impressed as I was when I got to test drive some XM3’s, and I already have some thoughts on what Sony might do for the XM5’s.
Let’s nerd out on some GOOD travel audio! Continue reading “Six Things Sony NEEDS to NOT do to Their Next Headphones! WH-1000XM5 Success?”
Premium earbuds that feel fresh. The Ikko gems bring a hybrid dual driver design, but the tuning is lighter than I was expecting. They look good. They sound good. And I LOVE the way the Ikko accessorizes their products. Let’s take a listen!

Audeze’s FIRST Electrostatic Headphones!
These kinda blew my mind.
The CRBN are PREMIUM tier headphones, but beyond just “sounding gooder”, they come from a real medical grade need. The story of how they were built, in cooperation with UCLA, is kind of incredible.
I was excited to take a listen, and here are my thoughts!

Audeze Mobius REVISITED!
I spent a VERY little time with the Audeze Mobius while producing some content for Newegg. Now, with Spatial audio becoming more popular, it’s a good time to look back. Does this premium experiment hold up today? Is 3D Audio a practical feature or a fad? In a world of Airpods Max, can this headset be worth it?

Not a review, but sharing some thoughts on using the Pixel Buds A-Series for about a week. Refining is the name of the game, and while the A-Series might not have all the same features as the 2020 Pixel Buds, they might perform better for a lot of folks out there.

Performance 880 review!
The fun thing about premium audio, it’s less about “quality”, and more about crafting a specific sound. When you start figuring out what kind of tone or tuning you really like. Ultrasone delivers a specific vibe on the Performance 880, and it’s kind of delicious… Continue reading “Ultrasone Performance 880 Headphones: Sweet and Mellow”
