Sennheiser PX200 Closed Mini Headphone

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Sennheiser

July 10, 2006
I recently purchased a Creative Zen 16gb mp3 player, (with which I`m extremely happy,incidently) but the headphones that came with it, although providing good sound quality, sat rather uncomfortably in my ears and had a tendency to keep falling out. So I scoured Amazon and settled upon the Sennheiser PX 200s due to the high number of 5 star reviews.Here are the pros and cons:-

Pros - durable construction
- nice and light
- fold away neatly
- extremely comfortable
- don`t leak too much sound
- cancels out external sound

Cons - poor bass response, most of the action seems to be going on
in the mid-range

Sennheiser RS130 - Wireless Headphones

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Sennheiser

December 05, 2005
I went into several shops and tested many different headphones - these sound-wise were the best. Very good quality.
Good build quality too - they look and feel well made.
Several of Sennheiser's previous models had reviews mentioning the headphones kept slipping off your head - however, i did not experience that with these.
The self charging stand is excellent - dead easy!
No hissing or crackling. Good choice if you willing to spend a little more money - you won't be disappointed.

Online - IPOD CLASSIC 80gb & 160gb LEATHER FLIP CASE - BLACK

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Online - Free Shipping with Full warranty.


As a new iPod owner I quickly found out that - as everyone had told me - they are prone to scratching. So needed a case (although I can't believe, considering the price Apple don't provide one in the price!). I wanted a case that had a clip, so I could use it at the gym, but that was cheap too. The official cases were too expensive and all those on eBay were from Hong Kong and didn't have great feedback. So, good old Amazon had what I needed! The case is simple, good quality and does what it says on the tin. The flip top closes with a hidden magnet, the iPod fits perfectly and the clip can be easily removed so it's also slim enough to slip in your pocket. Perfect!

Kensington Universal FM Transmitter

from: Kensington

Had high hopes for this transmitter but unfortunately let down. There is a high ammount of noise transmitted which results in a lot of hiss, very noticeable during quiet periods of songs. Tried every clear frequency between 88.1 and 107.9 and results do not improve. Thought it could be my player however even without a source hiss is massive. Another couple of gripes are you can only jump in 0.2 MHz steps (88.1, 88.3, ..) and that the frequency you have tuned into is hard to see on the display.
Shame that so much noise is transmitted as it deals with the music modulated alongside very well, dance, rock and pop all coming out crisp and free from distortion.

Belkin iPod Classic Silicon Sleeve - 80Gb - Black

from: Belkin Components

Don't know what some of these other reviewers are on about complaining about this. This skin actually enhances the iPods attractiveness I think, with its silky finish. Knowing that my purchase is totally encased and protected makes it an added bonus that it still looks good.

Ok, the screen protector does need trimming with scissors by about 1mm each edge in order to fit without any air bubbles, but apart from that I see no problem. Click wheel works fine for me and my iTrip fits into the docking port without any problems. Only one drawback I can find is that it doesn't fit into my docking cradle with the skin on - but I use this cradle only when I'm hooking my iPod into my hifi, which isn't often. Most times I sit it on top of the speaker ... Read More:

Sony MDREX85LPB In-Ear Headphones - Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Sony

March 10, 2007
I bought these from Amazon as my other Sony earphones suddenly packed up, I read the reviews and I am pleased with them. The sound quality through my creative Zen is good, the bass response could be slightly better but then you can't push these ones too far into your ear which I did with the previous set and probably caused them to fail. The top end is clear and they seem to cancel pretty much any external noise when in use. They seem to fit quite well and will have to shorten the 1.2m cord to use with the Zen remote, but I can use the plastic widget that came with my previous sony's. It commes with a nice little case and a plastice device to wrap them around when not in use.

Overall I would recommend these even against the ones that cost twice ... Read More:

Logitech OEM S220 2.1 Speaker Black

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Logitech

October 24, 2007
Bought these speakers on impulse, based purely on the low price and because I wanted a sub-woofer for the computer in the study.
VERDICT?
Well they do supply bass so I can't complain there, but to be honest the sound quality is not the best.
Turn the volume up on the PC and the speakers struggle.
The woofer has no on/off switch so power is constantly on (not very energy efficient) and becasue of this it constantly hums when not in use (unless of course you turn it off at the mains)
On they plus side, the black shiny speakers look nice.
Just a pity they don't actually sound as good as they look.

Sennheiser HD205 Closed Back Headphone

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Sennheiser

July 10, 2006
What can I say other than another good effort from Sennheiser. In terms of sound, i preferred them to the HD215 headphones.

The only downside is, like my HD25-1's and HD650's the clamping effect is very hard, and might not be suited to everyone. Build quality is top notch though, and you get one of those handy (not) carrying bag. Out of the sub 50 headphones I have, I've never ever had call to use one of those carrying bags, but you might find one.

Recommended: Oh, absolutely. One of the better Sennheiser's!

Belkin iPod Nano 3G Leather Folio - Black/Chocolate

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > MP3 Player Accessories
from: Belkin Components

October 21, 2007
This case protects the ipod nano well, it fits perfectly and looks really good on the ipod.

The only issue that I had was that you cannot connect your dock connector cable to the ipod while it is in the case. Since the description of the product actually states that you have use of this while in the case, this is actually not true.

I found this a problem because I use an ipod remote with earphones which uses this connection. However I did find a solution. The connection is covered by a bit of elastic which I just trimmed off with a pair of scissors! The ipod is still held firmly in the case and you have use to the connections.

Very neat case though, and I do recommend it.
