Want to upgrade the sound quality produced by your headphones but don't want to invest in a brand new set? FiiO have just made this easy.

These are some new products recently to join the AMP3 range and they are quite literally flying off the shelves- so i thought i should make everyone who isn't aware, aware...it's only fair that no one misses out!

The FiiO E5 and E1 are portable headphitsone amplifiers - all you have to do is plug them into your MP3 player and your headphones into the FiiO and your good to go! The difference is obvious from the moment you connect and start to listening to your music!

The FiiO E1 is dedicated to the iPhone, and iPod users out there while the E5 is universal for all other MP3 players.


Looking for an improvement from your PC/Notebook? Simply plug in the FiiO E7!

Ever used one of our FiiO Amplifier Range (check them out here)?
let us know how you got on...


The Gadget Show’s Sound Challenge featuring the Aquabeat and SwiMP3!

Share

Browsing the Gadget Show website, I stumbled across this sound challenge that a couple of our Waterproof gadgets are involved in! It was a sound comparison - the Speedo Aquabeat certainly stole the light from the Finis SwiMP3.

From the off it was clear during the Gadget Shows Sound challenge that the Aquabeat was more impressive with its “Big…Bold…intuitive and ergonomic buttons” that made it “Really easy to use.”

The Aquabeat took the advantage in this test not only through ease of use but the fact they have inner ear buds which allow you to “feel completely immersed in the music.”

All in the Aquabeat was declared the overall winner of the two players through its ease of use and the fact “it worked beautifully in the water.”

Aquabeat’s are a very popular waterproof music device, here is the question for you though?

Does having music give you that little bit extra when swimming, does the music give you extra drive? Let us know what you think!

Splitting them into categories of headphones for on the go, when you are enjoying sport and heaphones for home listening. Pollyanna highlights three big products!

The CX300 – II where the pick for the in-ear headphones. Producing a great sound that can tackle the big guns in the headphone range!

Looking for sporting headphones – Sony and their NWZ-252’s have the answer. Designed for ease of use, the headphones are in fact an MP3 player too! They elimate the worry of dropping your MP3 player on the go meaning you are free to sprint jog or walk without holding your MP3 player.

For you audiophiles out there – Great for home entertainment use, Denon’s AH-D5000’s! These are over the ear headphones with active noise cancellation meaning that all outside noise and interference is reduced. A booming review from Pollyanna on these pups.

The Gadget Show give us an insight into the J3!

Share
The Gadget expert Jon Bentley got his teeth sunk into Cowon's J3 in The Gadget Shows online 'Web TV 94 Cowon J3 & Headphone buyers guide'.

"Do they(Cowon) manage to keep the bar still raised? Or do they fail where they have previously succeeded."

After testing the J3's audio ability through Shures SE535's he goes on to describe the audio quality in the most positive manner...

"brilliant...bright and detailed but at the same time very natural...Significantly better, i think, than the iPod touch 2nd and 3rd gen".

Full of praise Jon continues to describe the J3 as having a "great screen" and a being a "relief" breaking away from iTunes.

Jon's concluding statement says it all...
"Overall this is one of the best sounding and most desirable music players you can buy!"
