We’ve stated a time or three before that we’re big audio junkies here at GS. And we’ll be honest with you right up front: “pretty” headphones that look stylish rarely sound good. Ok. For the general public they could be worth a listen. But we’re somewhere in between tone deaf and audiophile — emphasis on the latter. So when we were given the chance to test out V-MODA’s “stylish” Vibrato Remote headphones we...
We here at Gadgetsteria love things make produce music. Whether it is a device that plays it or the little ear buds that carries the sound. We have a wide love of musical likes and finding the right device that will give us the sound we want to hear is sometimes hard to come by. Stereos are a dime a dozen. iDevice docks are as well, with so many brands around, it’s really hard to find something that produces superb sound quality, yet is pleasing to the eyes. I mean,...

Today we’ve got the Wicked Audio Metalics earphones in-house and have given them a once over. Check out our thoughts after the break… The Specs Frequency 20 Hz - 20,000...
Bluetooth earpieces are a dime a dozen these days, with most options being at least of average quality. That wasn’t always the case, however. Several years back when Bluetooth earpieces were just starting to catch on, it used to take a heavy toll on your wallet if quality was what you cherished most. But the ECO Sound Engineering V268 we have here today only costs $10. Is it really all that great? Gadgetsteria investigates… Design & Features The...
Being an audiophile in the modern digital world while also considering mobility is almost impossible. At uncompressed bitrates, single CDs can easily approach 600-900MB in size.
