Mad Catz/Tritton’s Primer gaming headset arriving this week, we go ears-on

On January 11, 2012, In Gadgets, by bambalunga303

With these gamer cans ready to bask in their full Xbox-certified glory in stores this week, we took the chance to hit up Tritton’s stand here at CES to try on its Primer . Despite the call-center employee appearance [above], the earphones are relatively comfortable, although the head band seemed a bit tight. While the Primer offers a 33 foot reception radius, we found its limits of receiving audio were closer to 40 feet.

Bose BT2 Bluetooth headset cruises through the FCC, unsurprisingly mum on specifications

On September 9, 2011, In Gadgets, by lsderotes

We’re surmising that Bose has at least one other thing on the docket for its September 15th press event, but for those who still think Bluetooth headsets are must-have accessories… well, this guy ought to be hitting store shelves soon. The BT2 just passed through the FCC’s database, showcasing a left ear placement and letting us know that it’ll be “powered by a rechargeable, non-replaceable lithium-ion polymer battery.” We’re guessing it’ll be priced accordingly (read: incomprehensibly out of reach for most), and will have precisely zero specifications printed on the box.

Marshall updates Major headphone with in-line mic for more talkin’ between rockin’

On June 20, 2011, In Gadgets, by mbanku

Marshall struck solid gold when it lent spare amp parts to Zound Industries ( Urbanears ) for the Major and Minor headphones, and is now releasing a remixed version of the original smash hit. The updated headset is by all means a Major headphone, but it now features an in-line remote with a mic that’s sure to please on-the-move fans of the supra-aural fit

Turtle Beach’s XP500 headset brings totally wireless 7.1 to the Xbox 360, PX5 is mildly jealous

On June 7, 2011, In Gadgets, by klamka13303

Turtle Beach’s PS3-oriented PX5 performed great in our recent review , and just after we’ve arrived at E3 the company has announced another new release for the show: the XP500 for the Xbox 360. It’s essentially a PX5, featuring the same design and programmable Dolby virtual 7.1 goodness, but with a Microsoft loving green trim and a rechargeable Xbox 360 Bluetooth Chat Adapter — the latter plugs into your controller for some wireless chatting action. This makes it the only other completely wireless Xbox headset besides the Tritton / Microsoft cans we got a glimpse of last week .

Sony’s NC-13 buds cancel noise, RF865 cans transmit across a football field

On March 30, 2011, In Gadgets, by brumek13

Given the one-size-fits-few nature of most audio products, it’s good to have choices, and Sony happens to have two new pairs of headphones designed for very particular segments of your life.

Westone 4 earphones review

On March 28, 2011, In Gadgets, by klamka13303

Westone isn’t exactly a household name, even in the earphone universe. But what the company lacks in recognition, it more than makes up for in quality. If you’ll recall, we had a listen to its ES5 custom in-ear monitors earlier in the year, and while they cost a staggering $950, they also managed to melt our brain and thoroughly spoil us in the process

Skullcandy Fix versus Yurbuds Ironman … battle of the in-ear headphones! (video)

On January 8, 2011, In Gadgets, Technology, by Lobo

Skullcandy is hitting CES with a characteristically bold claim: its new Fix in-ear headphones are touted as the first to never fall out of your ears, irrespective of the intensity of your physical activity. We’ve matched them up against the Yurbuds Ironman Series, a rather larger pair of in-ear speakers, which makes the exact same claim

Wicked Audio’s 3D headphones aren’t what you think, border on unsightly

On December 29, 2010, In Gadgets, by Lobo

Okay, so maybe “border” is being generous. Wicked Audio is well known for its — shall we say, vivacious — line of earbuds and headphones , but none compare to the outfit’s new 3D series of cans. Set to officially debut at CES next week, this line actually has embossed logos on each ear cup, enabling you to “feel” the graphics on the side
