Below is a carefully selected list of the best headphones and earphones money can buy. We've tried them, tested them and stand by our recommendations. Having said all that, buying a set of earphones is extremely subjective - one man's thumping bass can be another man's ear ache so make sure that you've read our Customer Reviews and Press Reviews carefully to see what others think.

Disagree with our choices? Would you recommend something different? Contact us and let us know. We've been known to give out rewards for such chivalry.
