- Ultrasone Edition 8
- We've reviewed a number of Ultrasone headphones over the years--everything from iPod-inspired iCans to the luxurious HFI-2200s. But the new Edition 8s are, in so many ways, a very different Ultrasone. First, the Edition 8s have, according to Ultrasone, a completely original design that doesn't share any parts with...

- Sennheiser HD 800
- Model changes at the upper end of Sennheiser's headphone line don't happen very often. The previous flagship--the still available HD 650s--were introduced in 2003, and remain in the line. Their predecessor, the HD 600s, came out more than a decade ago, and are still popular with audiophiles. I've reviewed both,...

- Consumers only want 3D HDTVs, Blu-ray players if they don't cost extra
- Here's one point#1 Blu-ray is basically an evolutionary step up from DVD. DVD from VHS was a revolutionary jump in quality, sound, and durability. Blu-ray? Just more lines, maybe better sound. Nothing major there.#2 HDTV: Because of manufacturers screwing around, some shows/movies are 720, others are 1040. Also it...
