The D8000 Pro meticulously balances summit-fi technicality with an inviting, balanced and genre-flexible tonality that I haven’t yet heard in such equal measure.
Plussound Copper+ Apollonian Review – Greater Than the Sum
The Copper+ is a complex and well-realised take on a copper custom cable defined by an especially wide stage, immaculate background and robust, powerful bass.

Should you enjoy a balanced and spacious sound with excellent control throughout, the Cerberus makes for a unique and immensely rewarding listen and continues to surprise after every hour of listening.

The SX-8s stack represents a scaled down versions of SMSL’s higher end SX-9 devices, upholding a similar character while taking a step back in both technical performance and price.
Master & Dynamic MW08 Sport Review – Less is More
If you’re looking for a premium TWS earphone purely for exercise, then the MW08S’ powerful sound, stable fit and effective ANC make it a good contender. However, the drop in sonic balance and finesse does make this a far more situational purchase than the MW08
See Audio Bravery Review – Pedigree
If you enjoy an open, high-clarity sound and a powerful bass performance, the Bravery punches well above its weight.
ikko OH1s Review – Master of None
The OH1s is a beautifully designed earphone with excellent build quality and a super svelte form factor. The sound has a unique character that will no doubt appeal to some but cannot be universally praised and recommended.

If you have the luxury of purchasing this cable, expect unmatched opulence and a listening experience accomplished in equal measure.

Yaxi Earpads for Koss ESP/95X Review – Balance is Best
xi’s ESP/95X earpads are a very smart upgrade for current users and something to consider for buyers on the fence about dipping their toes in electrostatic headphones on a budget.
Soundz NOVA Review – Stratospheric
If you don’t mind a drier vocal presentation, the NOVA is a well-considered, versatile and technically impressive performer. It has no glaring weaknesses, but some idiosyncrasies that will limit mass appeal.
ag TWS04K Review – More than a Rebrand
The TWS04K nails the fundamentals of a non-frills wireless experience, remaining a strong value proposition despite the price jump.
