The Crossfade M-100 from V-Moda produces beautiful sound, and they fold up very well making them great for travel, or just storing in your computer bag. And they are strong! They’ll stand up to amazing punishment! And you can plug your cable into either side. You can even get a custom logo engraved on them.

    Okay guys, I’d have never heard of the Supertooth Freedom headphones if it wasn’t for your episode… now that I want them and can’t do without them… where can I get them in the US? =o(

    Thanks in advance… love the Show!

      Hey Steve,

      Sorry, but at the moment those are only available from the Supertooth website. I know we’re generally spoiled in the US and don’t often have to order our gadgets internationally, but the only thing I can tell you is that you either have to do that… or wait. And it could be a while.

      If it means anything to you… I am carrying mine around in my backpack permanently now. 😉

      Cheers,

      John P.

        Sadly the Euro price point plus shipping places this set at over $200 USD… While I’m sure it’s still a great set, it changes it’s perceived ‘value’ considerably.

        May I ask where you saw the $129 USD price point?

        P.S. If they mean anything to you, you’d better keep them in your backpack… If I happen to see you travelling I’m going to pickpocket you like you were an Assassin’s Creed NPC chump! ;o)

    Thanks! Great overview! Any tips on how to decide between the V-Moda and KEF M500? Oh, and your camera is somehow very black-heavy, isn’t it?

      The main way to decide between the V-Moda and KEF is whether you want ON ear or OVER ear. The V-Moda is going to completely cover your ear and seal up against the side of your head. They are also a little heavier, and more durable.

      If you tend to be hard on equipment, and if you need to really block out surrounding noise, the V-Moda is a better choice. If you want lighter, more accurate sound go with the KEF.
