Final Audio's ZE3000 takes its name from its wired namesake's E3000, the brand's most widely recognised wired earphones. It's "a perfect companion for long listens without any fatigue" to Headfonics. Headfonia welcomed this wireless wonder, and Major HiFi gave it a Gold Award. ZE3000's sweet, intense vocal emphasis follows its owner where ever they may go. Overcoming the issues of distortion levels and space constraints in each earbud were carried out in typically novel Final manner. [See Product Desc. For More] f-Core for Wireless is what ZE3000's 6mm dynamic driver has been christened, its ability to act as if it was a much wider radiating surface a particular breakthrough. ZE3000 also brings f-LINK Damping System to bear, optimising the pressure in the acoustic space inside the earbuds housing to create a sound equivalent to wired earphones without the need for external vents. This makes it possible to properly control the low frequencies and reproduce vocals simultaneously, both issues that have been traditionally difficult to achieve with true wireless earbuds. The usual TWS paraphernalia accompanies ZE3000 here, with Final adding Qualcomm aptX, aptX Adaptive and IPX4 water resistance so it keeps up fully with the times on connectivity and function.

Technics did not decide to enter the market for fun. Whilst the world has claimed "audiophile quality" for almost every true wireless earbud out there, this one gets the Zepp stamp of approval and our highest recommendation. It's not just us: Headfonics rate this one of the top TWS options out there.Technical specifications on paper are available at a glance, but we all know that discernment in sound is more abstract, and nuanced, but not less instinctive. We are all capable of the differentiation, so now give yourself a chance and have a listen. "More", you say? [See Product Desc.

The countdown began with the IT01 leading iBasso Audio to release this entry-level king's successor, the IT00. Headfonia highlights this dynamic driver IEM's "mellower signature and better vocals" in comparison to its predecessor. [See Product Desc. For More] Its spotless feel clothed in white prepares you for an uber-clean sound you'd normally expect of a statement price tag. That's ensured by IT00's overachieving thin graphene driver, Helmholtz resonator and a high magnetic flux of nearly one tesla. Major HiFi found themselves asking "why you would need anything more than this". Prime Audio Review says IT00 "has bass to die for, a full-bodied, clear midrange and a lively but sweet treble", putting it straight on his Best IEM list. Audio-PH adds that iBasso "held a practical master class for us and showed that they can design a cool thing in any price segment". This is a great pick to begin with on your audiophile route. Twister6 loved turning these into an instantly gratifying pair of audiophile true wireless buds with iBasso's CF01 Bluetooth adapter.  Both join the rest of iBasso's hits here, while you can also browse our other earphones here.

***Switchless version of the Viento-R The model that captures the most unawares: Hidition's Viento may not be the most glamorous, but it's proof that how you use four balanced armature drivers, and not how many you have, is what leads to final sound quality. Seemingly unfailing in all aspects, Viento's customisable nature is yet another surprise up its sleeve... Viento can be made to order in custom (CIEM) form. You can also explore the rest of Zepp's Hidition range or view our other universal (UIEM) options here. / Photography by Zepp Crew.===+ All Hidition UIEMs are built to order as design can be customised.+ Price indicated does not include artwork fees.+ For appointments on ear-impressions taking or to consult on your artwork, click here to reach the crew.

Elysian Acoustic Labs aptly named their six balanced armature driver Diva, because of the way she sings and sparkles for every genre. Far from being just one size fits all though, a tunable bass switch allows users to select between three levels of bass for the best synergy with their music and listening preferences.

Technics arrived in TWS with a bang with EAH-AZ70W, and its direct descendent EAH-AZ60 builds on that initial wave of excitement from one of Japan's most cherished Hi-Fi manufactures. AZ60 was a Sound & Vision Top Pick. It scored for "awesome" sound and noise-cancelling on Digital Trends and Android Central. Headphonesty says it ups the game. [See Product Desc. For More] EAH-AZ60 respects all the basics that good sound reproduction requires, its 8mm biocellulose dynamic driver working in a specially tuned acoustic chamber and harmoniser for precise, exciting sound. LDAC and an IPX4 rating take you outdoors with confidence. Technics build on that by turning their most affordable TWS option into a work-from-home facilitator, adding eight mics and wind noise reduction managed by JustMyVoice™ DSP that isolates and amplifies words while minimising surrounding disturbances.

Final Audio continue to prove that audio innovation can take place at all price levels with the new A4000.  This single dynamic driver IEM takes lessons from the beryllium flagship A8000, aiming to be more versatile in servicing all genres of music and playback sources so you can wear and listen to it without undue fuss or hassle. Its 6mm dynamic driver comes built with an internal brass housing to combine speed and control with an exciting emphasis in its bass and treble as satisfying as its fit. These made quite the impression on Everyday Listening. A4000 is a gem for lovers of pop and other modern music and Headfonics praises its "strong treble performance that makes J-pop and K-pop thrilling". "More bass engagement, a clean and presentable midrange, and most of all, a highly detailed treble rendering" gets Ear Fidelity's nod.

Sennheiser re-establish themselves as the brand every budding audiophile should begin with, with the launch of the IE300. Decades of heritage and expertise were poured into producing an earphone enjoyable at any level of the hobby.  A wonderful sense of mid-range space greets you. Details pour through with a real zeal, and an elevated sub-bass and treble response mixes accuracy with a sense of thrill whenever you put IE300 on. [See Product Desc. For More] "Instrumental timbre is resolved very well and often with uncanny clarity", says StereoNET. It finds itself on Headfonia's Recommended Buys list since "bass is impressive and addictive, the mid timbre is to die for and the treble is energetic". At the heart of IE300 is a 7mm dynamic driver christened XWB (Extra Wide Bandwidth). Its effects would certainly be greater than its size suggests, with a wide frequency response producing the purest form of bass down to the nether frequencies. Building XWB from an all-new, proprietary material aside, IE300 uses a special absorption Helmholtz resonator designed to cancel out any remaining distortion and stray frequencies in the tiny enclosure that makes this one of Head-Fi's best fits, bar none. There's no compressed treble and mid-range thanks to such an absorption chamber – technology like that is found all the way up in Sennheiser's HD800S. That makes IE300 a brilliant entry to taste the innovations that continue to establish this historic German manufacturer as one of personal audio's enduring greats.  Also view all of Sennheiser's other releases here, or check out our other earphones here.

iBasso Audio releasing a flagship UIEM is exciting, and certainly tuned for excitement is the brand-new IT07.  This seven-driver hybrid puts top quality components at your service, as a graphene dynamic driver for bass props up six premium Knowles balanced armatures. [See Product Desc. For More] IT07 proves its worth at the bottom and at the top of the spectrum, thrilling with its bass and treble performance. There's the option to dial these in further yet, with included interchangeable acoustic filters within reach to suit multiple sources, tastes and music genres. Tasteful emphasis of the frequency extremes flank a lucid and spacious mid-range performance that flows effortlessly, its liquidity reminiscent of AM05. Emotive vocals never risk being overshadowed.  Audio123 sees this as a legitimate step up from iBasso's previous IT04 in a comparison with today's popular flagship UIEMs. Headfonics has "no complaints because it does so many things very well ... Tesla driver can dig deep into the bass, the vocals sound very smooth and clear and the highs are clean and crisp with an overall balanced frequency response". MOONSTAR Reviews and Twister6 compare it favouribly with other flagships of its day, with IT07 holding its own against Meze's Rai Penta and 64 Audio's tia Trió, among the rest. An excellent stock cable terminated in balanced 2.5mm comes included, to work from the box with iBasso's DC01 USB-C DAC dongle, or one of our music players here.  // RECOMMENDED: Upgrade with the IBASSO CB16 if you're part of the 4.4mm club.

Some sounds are bigger than their price tags here in Zepp, and Shozy BG is one of them. For those who like the details laid out in their layers without overpowering or losing vocals in the middle, this one checks across any rock, pop, jazz and more. [See Product Desc. For More] Bonus: It fits most ears snug and nice. Cons: It's always sold out, expect a short wait when that happens. You might also be interested in the Form 1.1, another spectacular product that is easily labelled #bestbangforbuck. 

How many times can a classic be reborn, over and over again? We herald the arrival of another Andromeda by Campfire Audio. It's a recipe Ken Ball has perfected since it wowed Head-Fi for the first time in 2016, and Twister6 says 2020 sees this legend "give vocals more focus and improved definition, changing the signature to more balanced". [See Product Desc. For More] It's a pocket miracle of soundstage, soaring highs and wow factor. Familiar elements return in its five balanced armatures and T.A.E.C., but throw out everything you thought you knew about it. The characters are the same, the script not so. This is an Andromeda fit for a brave new decade. Darko.Audio was left rummaging through his audiophile vocabulary to describe what he was hearing. Headfonics adds it's more complete than predecessors, potentially pleasing more ears. If Andromeda sounds like reason to get into the Campfire 2020 spirit then look out also for ARA and Solaris.

600 means so much more than a number to Sennheiser. After the HD600 proved so much of a generational product, naming the IE600 shows exactly the expectations Sennheiser have for their next genre-defining IEM. StereoNET gave it an Applause Award and didn't expect Sennheiser's middle-child to mount such a shot at the top. Sure enough, IE600 is the name on every audiophile's lips. The iconic number permeates all levels of Head-Fi, and it's impossible not to be excited by another watershed release that will become so much more than a great transducer to gravitate around. We know we've reached another height of research and development – Sennheiser's buzzwords – when this single dynamic driver wonder swept to multiple awards at launch. "Ad perfectum compromissum" is what Headfonia say "IE600 really is, the perfect blend between the reference IE900 and the super-fun IE300". [See Product Desc. For More] T3 and LBTechreviews both score IE600 full marks. the Ear cites it's a great example of a premium wired earbud's supremacy. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Sennheiser have tuned IE600 with the best form of neutrality, the kind that every discerning – even mildly – music lover can come to enjoy. Universally. Because there is always something to love from a transducer that can simultaneously render accurate bass, and properly judged vocals. Being able to deliver detail without compromise, yet not needing to die by being able to hear everything as its only asset. IE600 gets so much right without even trying, a veritable sweet spot everyone loves. The real significance of the 600 moniker, on show. Pairs of by-now standard 7mm TrueResponse drivers built in Wedemark, Germany, form IE600's beating heart. An acoustic back volume to the dynamic driver's rear, and dual resonator chambers to the front, give this the basis to perform.  Sennheiser unlock IE600's tuning potential from the drawing board, 7mm diameter small enough to climb in frequency without cone or modal break-up, while supplying it with enough air volume to move and manifest a long, slow bass wave with full authority. Moving up, IE600 wouldn't be a Sennheiser if it was without soundstage. So its dual resonator chambers D2CA manage airflow to your ear such that voices and instruments in a realistic headspace get delivered with solid images to your ear. Close your eyes, listen with your ears, and you're there at the venue. Delicately assembled in Ireland, these Sennheisers are built tough. The zirconium alloy IE600 is encased in has triple the hardness and flexural strength of high-performance steel: truly a space-age material found on the drill of the Mars Rover. A 4.4mm balanced cable comes in the package, ensuring your prized IE600 is ready for use up to its full potential immediately from our range of music players and portable DAC/amps. To rediscover your music through the newly-iconic IE600 is to invite you to listen to the IE300 and IE900 for different views into your tunes too.
