Skullcandy; now there’s a naming success. Skullcandy’s a little company that markets a wide selection of headphones, earbuds, and accessories. I’ve never had any trouble remembering this firm’s name! Skullcandy’s target audience is the skater/hiphop crowd, but don’t let that (or their too-cool-for-school website design) drive you away, even if you lean more to the fuddy-duddy side of the spectrum.

Every aspect of these ‘phones is top-notch, but you either are a behind-ear headphone person or you aren’t.
Read MoreEH 150 Headphones
Review
After playing around with cheap headphones I came to the conclusion that many do with devices like this; you get what you pay for. That doesn’t mean you can’t get a decent set of headphones without spending a fortune though. Case in point, the Sennheiser EH 150 headphones.

Review
Audio quality is G-R-E-A-T. You’ll have to spend at least 50 percent more for a comparable in-ear-phone experience. Grado Labs’ SR225 is elegantly simple and minimalist in physical design, but hidden from sight is audio engineering that quickly will make you want to get back to your tracks as soon as you can.

MacAlly PodPro noise-reducing headphones

Review – OWC Mercury Elite Pro FireWire 800/400
Imagine 250GB of storage space on an external drive. Now add in the ability to connect the drive via FireWire 400 or 800, as well as USB 1.1 or 2.0. Make the drive a respectable 7200RPM with a 8MB Data Buffer, as well as Oxford922 chip-set, and you have one mean drive.
