Audio Reviews

The Marshall Middleton II is a surprisingly powerful speaker, with strong sound quality, battery life and waterproofing. It's a little on the pricey side, though.

Adequate listening modes and voice calling aren’t enough to recommend the Sony LinkBuds Clip over other clip-on favorites.

Sennheiser's new ANC headphones are a winning formula with epic sound and a very comfortable fit — but they cost more than just about everything else.

Samsung QS750F goes where few soundbars have gone before. Immensely affordable for a soundbar, sub, and rears, this is one for home theater nerds on a budget.

The Yamaha True X Surround 90A is a premium sound system with near-perfect Dolby Atmos, but the dialogue performance isn’t quite up to scratch.

The JLab JBuds Party is a mid-sized budget speaker with LED lights and party mode, but the sound quality doesn’t do enough to justify the increased price.

The Final ZE300 earbuds feature effective ANC, a well-balanced sound profile across genres, and sport a comfortable fit, all for less than $50.

The Edifier S880DB MKII are bookshelf speakers that pack a major punch. With unbeatable sound and compact size, they’re majorly impressive for the price.

The Shokz OpenFit Pro headphones sound fantastic and offer a comfortable secure fit, but they’re expensive for open buds and the noise reduction feature is underwhelming.

The JLab Pop Party Bluetooth speaker is affordable and portable, but are there too many compromises for the budget price tag?
