This super-cheap soundbar system doesn’t hit all the right notes, but it’s still a decent option for those on a budget.

You won't find many soundbars with a lower price tag than the Saiyin DS6305, but it's far from perfect.

The Ultimea Nova S50 bundles a super-small soundbar and solid subwoofer, but it doesn’t offer particularly three-dimensional audio (despite the Dolby Atmos badge).

The Sennheiser IE 600 paint an intricate sonic picture, and they’re built to last; but the premium quality means a premium price tag.

The SoundMagic E80D offer up excellent sound quality for the price you pay, making them a very good wired option.

The SoundMagic E11D earbuds serve up solid audio at a great price, and are only held back by a couple of design choices.

These light and comfortable in-ear monitors plate up meaty audio with elegance.

The AONIC 3 make a statement with sharp separation and nifty passive noise isolation.

The Skullcandy Set USB-C earbuds make for an elegant pick for those seeking trustworthy wired earbuds.

The JBL Xtreme 4 will hit the highs and lay down the lows no matter the environment, but it costs a pretty penny.

The Soundcore Boom 2 delivers more than enough bass for a party setting, and despite imperfect audio, makes for a good-value pick.
