The Logitech Ultimate Ears 6000 offer superb bass and treble for great playback

Honestly, we weren't quite expecting to like these headphones as much as we did. They're comfortable for several hours of use, sound great with or without active noise canceling and feel durable enough to take some abuse. They're also quite affordable in Singapore at just S$319, which is a little cheaper than Audio-Technica's top-of-the-line offering, and much more affordable than anything from Bose. However, the minimal noise reduction these cans provide in active-cancellation mode may not be good enough for frequent flyers, despite the stellar sound they produce. The Bose QuietComfort 15 would still be our top recommendation for its still unbeaten active noise-cancellation prowess.
