Sony Triqii

Tour & DesignNext: Page 3
IsolationSound Quality
Very low distortion. Poor frequency response and tracking.
Frequency Response (7.19)
The Sony Triqii has a decent frequency response. The boost in the middle is a bit rare to see, but not crazy out of the ordinary. The boost doesn’t come on too strongAll in all, the headphones did a good job staying within the limits and didn’t have any abrupt shifts. So far the Triqiis are performing at a level much, much higher than their purchase price would indicate.

Distortion (0.64)
Oh.
This is what can happen with foam pads: grossly distorted bass. Foam doesn’t form a good seal with the side of your head, and the resulting permeation can really do bad things to your playback’s sound.

Tracking (6.41)
Nothing worth complaining about, really. There’s a bit of error towards the higher frequencies, but overall the tracking is even. Again, we’re giving the Triqiis a certain amount of leeway because they’re dirt cheap, but the 4dB shift towards 6kHz isn’t going to be so outrageous you’ll pop your monocle.

$99.954Sennheiser CX 680i
The Sennheiser CX 680i in-ear headphones are a decent set of lower-mid-range headphones with a remote & mic. They don't have the best quality and they're not quite as rugged as we would've expected from a set of in-ears aimed at the gym crew, but they're a great value at $100. Read full 13-part review
