AIAIAI TMA-2 Uncrate Preset Modular Headphones

In our search for a more customized sound and fit, we've dialed-in a pair of headphones from Copenhagen-based AIAIAI tuned by Uncrate editors. These TMA-2 modular headphones provide a warm, balanced sound that's perfect for extended listening. With a focus on clear low-end dynamics, the headphones unleash deep bass with a wide sound stage and high isolation — meaning, your Run The Jewels and Com Truise tracks will sound their best ever. The speaker units are engineered with a 40mm titanium-coated driver to reduce distortion, and built with a fully sealed housing, providing full and rich sound. Up top is a reinforced headband with super comfortable PU leather padding, while memory foam PU leather-covered earpads and a coiled cable that extends up to 10 feet round out the pair. Pretty much every surface is coated with thin rubber to give a matte look with a soft-touch feeling.

Bragi Dash Pro Smart Earphones

The original Dash earphones broke ground with their ability to serve as fitness trackers and let you hear a mix of your audio and the world around you. Bragi Dash Pro Smart Earphones up the ante with an even more impressive trick: translation. Thanks to a partnership with iTranslate, they offer real-time translation in over 40 languages, making your globe-trotting adventures that much more rewarding. It has a five-hour battery life, with an extra five charges available via the charging case, 4 GB of built-in storage for standalone usage, and Knowles Balanced Armature Speakers for outstanding sound.

Conduit Sport Headphones

In-ear buds offer great sound but isolate you from the world. Bone conduction is ideal for when you want to hear your music but stay aware of what's going on around you. Conduit Sport Headphones give you the best of both. The built-in in-ear buds let the band wrap around your neck while providing full sound and isolation. When you'd rather hear your surroundings, the buds clip in place with magnets, and the band sits over your ears, vibrating the bones on the side of your skull to create a private listening experience while leaving your ear canals open. Either way, you get up to six hours of audio, onboard controls, and noise-cancelling mics in case you need to take a call.

Colorware Apple AirPods

Colorware has years of experience making custom-colored versions of Apple's various devices. So while they might not be the first to offer custom AirPods, they're likely the most reliable. Unlike the Blackpods, Colorware Apple AirPods are available in a rainbow of hues to match your style. Nearly 30 colors are available, in both solid or metallic, with your choice of a glossy or matte finish. Even the case can be customized, and each component painted a unique shade, so you can mix-and-match any crazy combination you can dream up.

Blackpods Airpods

The Jet Black iPhone 7 was one of the highlights of Apple's September 2016 media event. So were Airpods. Blackpods Airpods go ahead and do what Apple should have in the first place: mix the two together. Based in Brooklyn, they can either paint your existing set or sell you an all-new pair. Either way, the 'pods go through a three-phase process to arrive at a scratch-resistant brilliant black finish. Just be careful not to lose one — unlike Apple, they don't sell spares.

Master & Dynamic MW50 Wireless On-Ear Headphones

Thanks to a robust, timeless design that leaves their aluminum antenna exposed, the Master & Dynamic MW50 Wireless On-Ear Headphones offer range to match their sound. They work as far as 100 feet away from the Bluetooth source, while producing outstanding audio thanks to 40mm beryllium drivers. They charge over USB-C, offer 16-hours of battery life, and with a body that's 30% smaller and lighter than their big brother MW60, are ideal for on-the-go use. Available in silver metal with black or brown leather accents and ear pads.

Beyerdynamic Xelento Remote Earphones

Borrowing the Tesla technology of the company's flagship headphones, the Beyerdynamic Xelento Remote Earphones pack incredible sound into a tiny package. With magnets 16 times smaller than the headphones' and micrometer air gaps, the drivers have outstanding range, with a frequency response of 8 - 48,000 Hz that ensures powerful bass and clear highs. They're packed inside robust housings and connect via silver-plated, Kevlar-coated cables with gold-plated plugs and seven sizes of eartips so they'll create a tight seal no matter what your ears' size or shape.

Aedle ODS-1 Earphones

The acoustic chamber and earhooks are made from machined aluminum, with the latter wrapped in Italian calf leather for both looks and comfort.

Available in three different color schemes to match your style.

Apple AirPods

Since 2001, the white headphone cord has been synonymous with the iPod and iPhone. With Apple AirPods, that might finally be a thing of the past. These wireless headphones use the all-new Apple W1 chip to enable one-step connection with all your devices, and provide great sound with great battery life. They also have infrared sensors to detect when they're in your ear, voice accelerometers that work in concert with the stem-mounted microphones to reduce background noise when you're on a call or talking to Siri, and despite their diminutive size, they offer 5 hours of playback and up to 24 when used with the included compact wireless charging case.

Bravo Headphones

If you want to hear the best representation of an album using headphones, then look no further than electrostatic headphones. Of course, you'll have to spend close to $1000, and a big, bulky headphone amp is part of the deal as well. Bravo Headphones takes the expense and bulky amp out of the equation, while still providing a level of clarity and transparency that is ten times better than the headphones you're used to. Bravo Headphones are comfortable and their closed acoustic design provides noise isolation and greater music detail. Listen to your favorite songs and hear things you've never heard before, opening up a new world of fantastic hi-fi sound.

Designed for active use, Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H5 Earphones want to be your new workout partner. They connect to your phone over Bluetooth, and work with the Beoplay app to let you customize your listening experience.

Here One Smart Earphones

Building on the technology and feedback from the Here Active Listening System, the new Here One Smart Earphones aim to be the last ear-bound product you'll ever need. Like the Active, the One can act like an EQ for your surroundings, but instead of just blocking entire frequencies, it can identify and target specific sounds, suppressing or amplifying them based on your preferences. In addition, it supports wireless streaming of music and phone calls, playing audio while letting you stay aware of what's going on around you, and can use its multi-microphone rig to let you communicate with assistants like Siri or Google Now in the most natural way possible. Available in white or black with an included wireless charging case.

Samsung Gear IconX Earphones

Beyond smartphones, the two gadgets you see most often at the gym are fitness trackers and headphones. Samsung Gear IconX Earphones combine these two into a compact package. The 'phones have 4GB of internal storage, so you can play music without taking your phone with you, and built-in sensors record data like heart rate, distance, speed, and calories burned. Of course, you can also stream music to them over Bluetooth, an ambient sound mode ensures you can hear what's going on around you when you're running on/near the road, and the included carrying case doubles as a charger, giving you two extra top-offs before you need to find an outlet.

Nura Headphones

Our ears all look different. Turns out they hear differently, too. Nura Headphones are the first cans to take this into account. Using a microphone to measure both the tones going in and coming out of your ear canal, they adjust the sound automatically to match your hearing. Helping things along is a novel design that uses an in-ear driver to handle highs, and an over-ear cup with a bass driver, letting each note and tone breathe while also doubling up on noise isolation. They're powered by a digital connection to your device, so there's no battery to keep charged, and since the sound is custom tailored, you can leave the volume lower and save your hearing at the same time.

Normal Suit Headphones

Blocking out external noises is one of the best ways to increase your enjoyment of music and movies. So is keeping the sound from your headphones in your ears. Normal Suit Headphones accomplish both with custom-fitted "dots" made from soft silicone that ensure an ideal seal. A five-way articulated design allows the phones to adjust to your body even further, with an arm to help keep them in place during activity and integrated USB that can plug into pretty much any open port for charging. Available in black or brown hand-stitched Napa leather, they offer eight hours of battery life and are also available in a silicone Sport edition.

Halo Sport Neuropriming Headset

Forget powders, pills, or shots — the fastest, most reliable way to boost your athletic performance might be inside your skull. The Halo Sport Neuropriming Headset uses pulses of energy to improve your training. Called neuropriming, it lets your motor cortex send stronger, more easily read signals to your muscles, so more fibers are activated with each rep, and strength is gained faster. Used in conjunction with specially designed workouts, it can also help with the learning and sharpening of skills like swings, kicks, and throws. It connects to your phone wirelessly, and also works as a pair of Bluetooth headphones, so you don't need to take them off once the priming is done and training begins.

Fender FXA7 Pro Earphones

The Fender name is synonymous with quality guitars. And now, the trusted instrument makers are bringing that same quality and attention to detail to the world or earphones with these Fender FXA7 Pro Earphones. The housings were 3D printed using scans of thousands of ears — making each pair feel like a custom fit. And the sound quality is top notch as well, with a pair of balanced armature tweeters and their patented Hybrid-Dynamic tuned Balanced Armature Array. Available in metallic gold or metallic black, they arrive in a deluxe carrying case with SureSeal tips, a cleaning tool, and cable.

Misfit Specter Activity Tracking Headphones

Many of us wear headphones for a good portion of the day. So why not have them do more than just play music? Leveraging the tech used in the company's more traditional wearables, Misfit Specter Activity Tracking Headphones keep tabs on your steps, distance covered, calories, and sleep duration/quality, all while pulling double-duty as personal speakers. Despite their expanded functionality, they don't skimp on the sound, with dual drivers for richer, clearer audio, noise isolation technology to keep external sounds at bay, and multiple microphones to eliminate ambient noise when talking on the phone.

Revols Custom-Fit Earphones

A precise fit is key to enjoying the noise-isolating benefits of in-ear monitors. Revols Custom-Fit Earphones ensure a perfect fit by using a tip that molds to the unique shape of your ear in just 60 seconds. They were developed in partnership with Onkyo, so they have great sound, and they connect to your phone over Bluetooth so there's no messy wires to contend with. The rechargeable battery is good for 8 hours of listening — or 14 using the included inline battery pack — and the outside bezel rotates to help keep them in your ears.

Sennheiser Orpheus Headphones

In 1991, Sennheiser released the original Orpheus. At the time, they were claimed to be the best headphones ever made. The new Sennheiser Orpheus Headphones bring back the nameplate and the world-beating performance. The electrostatic headphones are designed to work with the included tube amplifier and DAC to deliver unrivaled sonic reproduction, with the amp seated in a glass housing, on a solid block of Carrara marble, and using four channels in parallel for both the right and left side for increased accuracy. To further reduce distortion, the headphones have a pair of Cool Class A MOSFET amps integrated into the ear cups to eliminate the reactance of the cable and deliver a dynamic range of 8 Hz to more than 100 kHz, as well as the lowest distortion ever measured in a sound reproduction system.

Bose QuietComfort 25 Triple Black Headphones

Pioneers in the world of clean, quality sound, it's easy to trust Bose when it comes to headphones, especially these QuietComfort 25 Triple Black Headphones. This special edition was customized just for Apple devices, with a triple black look and all the same amenities that make the QuietComfort special. The lightweight, comfortable headphones sit snugly on your head, while the noise cancellation function monitors the noise around you and drowns it out to let you fully experience the deep, crisp sounds of your music collection.

Master & Dynamic ME05 Earphones

Master & Dynamic have already proven that they can deliver the same signature sound you get from their headphones into a pair of earphones, and now they're prepared to take the next step with the MEO5 Earphones. Precision-machined from solid brass and hand-finished, the MEO5 utilizes the sonic qualities that brass provides to take your listening experience to the next level. Featuring custom 8mm titanium-coated dynamic drivers, and balanced weight distribution for a ideal, cozy fit, the MEO5's not only look and feel like the best earphones you've plugged in, but also push the warm, detailed sound profile that is consistent throughout the Master & Dynamic line.

Grado GH1 Brooklyn Tree Headphones

Grado's been making headphones in Brooklyn since the early '50s, and the family has run one business or another out of the same building since 1918. These Grado GH1 Brooklyn Tree Headphones honor that tradition by sourcing some of their materials from the same neighborhood. Built using a maple from Sunset Park that was otherwise destined to become furniture, the GH1 features a wooden body that imparts a dynamic sound with strong bass and crisp highs. The headphones otherwise feature Grado's classic styling, and arrive with a signed letter from third-generation headphone maker Jonathan.

Bowers & Wilkins P5 Wireless Headphones

The P5's weren't in need of fixing. Their blend of style and sound were already a hit. Unless, of course, you're the type of person that doesn't like wires (Hint: we're all that type of person). The Bowers & Wilkins P5 Wireless Headphones offer outstanding sound quality without the wires. Tuned by the engineers at Abbey Road Studios, they use drivers with traditional speaker-like diaphragms for more precise sound, rechargeable batteries with up to 17 hours of playback life, and aptX technology for the best possible wireless audio reproduction.

Kokoon EEG Sleep Headphones

Normally, falling asleep with headphones on isn't a good thing — unless you enjoy cauliflower ear. But Kokoon EEG Sleep Headphones aren't your normal cans. Developed in conjunction with Onkyo, they're designed to be worn overnight, and pack in miniaturized dry EEG sensors that monitor your sleeping patterns. The companion app can adjust both volume and equalization as necessary to help you fall asleep, then block out potential disturbances while you sleep. And when it's nearing time to rise, it will choose the right moment in your sleeping patterns to wake you, providing a much better experience than a buzzing alarm.

Master & Dynamic MH40 Headphones

New York City-based Master & Dynamic continue to set themselves apart in a crowded field with products like their MH40 Over Ear Headphones. Built using high-quality materials like heavy grain cowhide on the headband, soft lambskin for the ear pads, forged aluminum earcups, dual ports for shared listening, stainless steel in every high strain area, and an easy to reach mute button. The sound is equally impressive, with 45mm high-performance Neodymium drivers that provide mid-range and low-end punch without disturbing a co-worker or fellow commuter. Choose from five different color combinations including the brand new navy leather, silver metal option. High-quality sound paired with design that's built to last even longer than most of the bands in your personal collection.
