A rockstar that lives under your TV

Belkin SoundForm Isolate headphones are cheap, and that’s pretty much all they’ve got going for them. They’re uncomfortable and sound like bass took a day off.

The Samsung HW-S801D Ultra Slim soundbar excels in a few areas: size, sound, and ease of use. But for just a 3.1.2 channel setup, it feels costly for what it's offering.

Samsung HW-S60D has good sound, but I wouldn’t say it’s mind-blowing. With the Smart Things app, it’s easy to control, but most features require a Samsung TV.

The Nank Ultra headphones are good value open earbuds with a clip-on design that fits well for running and other workouts.

The Rode Wireless Go Gen 3 is the mic for content creators: just $300 for professional-level 32-bit quality is a force to be reckoned with.

Sony's bass-fueled ULT Field 3 has some stellar features for a sub-$200 Bluetooth speaker but its overreliance on ULT Power Boost and limited portability hold it back.

The bass performance of the Tribit StormBox Lava is earth shattering but the price tag won't shatter your wallet.

EarFun Tune Pro are super-budget headphones with an unbelievable 120 hours battery life, mediocre sound, and comfy cups.

The Belkin SoundForm Adapts are uncomfortable and they make music sound awful, with muffled vocals and muddy instruments. They do have good battery life though.
