Thanks to Decibullz Contour Custom Molded Headphones, with a little hot water, and your thumbs, you can make a pair of off-the-shelf earbuds fit like custom in-ear monitors. This review is primarily about the Contour Custom Molded Headphones, but we’ll also talk a little about the Custom Molded...

It sounds like you have a pretty nice system right now. You may want to ask yourself why do you want to upgrade? What are you unhappy about with your current speakers? Have you address speaker placement, seating placement, room acoustics first? What are you looking for in new speakers that...

Yes but this is meant to be an all contained unit that is portable. For an all-in-one solution, this thing amazes me at such a modest price.

I just got a sample of the fi50 in for review. I am stunned by the performance! I never got this excited about a portable audio device. It's that good!

Fixed. thx guys.

Despite the flawed conventional wisdom, in-wall speakers can be as good as their freestanding counterparts. In fact, there are areas where in-walls even offer advantages over conventional box speakers. And while a bad speaker is a bad speaker; in-wall or in-room; good in-wall speakers can solve...

The terms wireless and audiophile sound have been known to be quite oxymoronic in the community of avid listeners. One company however proposes to change this notion of conflicting ideals and make these terms synonymous with one another. Enter, the Pendulumic Stance S1+ Wireless Headphones– a...

RBH Sound has long been on our Audioholics short list of high performance, high value speakers and now they are revamping their subwoofer to target the very competitive ID marketplace. These new Impression Series of subwoofers leverages some of the core technology, design, and materials from...

No that doesn't work like that above the room transition frequency (300Hz or so). At low F, the room dictates the bass but at high F the speaker is the biggest influence. For discrete sources a center channel is a must IMO. However for 2CH music, I don't like the matrixed sound of a center...
