    Sony unveiled the first of its ULT speakers last year. Designed to supersede the X-Bass range, ULT devices feature what Sony dubs ‘advanced sound technology’ for more powerful bass. Three new models have just been added to the range, including this ULT Field 5. A medium-sized (144 x 320 x 125mm, HxWxD) portable Bluetooth speaker, the ULT Field 5 offers 25 hours of listening time, multi-point pairing and its IP67 rating lets you know it’s durable enough to be used outside.

    Audio-Technica is a brand with a long legacy in quality audio - it  released its first pair of headphones more than 50 years ago. Its latest offering, the ATH-R70xa, is the successor to the ATH-R70x open-back reference headphones. Unlike their predecessor, the ATH-R70xa don’t rely on damping or acoustic architecture to augment the lower frequencies.

    Beats, which was originally launched by hip-hop star Dr Dre and record executive Jimmy Iovine, is a relatively new brand in the audio space having first emerged in 2008. Its on-ear headphones quickly became extremely popular – so much so that the brand was bought by Apple in 2014. Beats took the plunge into the true wireless earbuds market in May 2019 with the Powerbeats Pro, and made a considerable splash with many - including me, they were my go-to earbuds for quite a few years.

Just had a lady at my door wearing a jacket bearing both @EE and @MoneySavingExp logos (indicated there was a partnership between the two), claiming to be from @bt_uk wanting to talk about fibre broadband upgrades. Got rid of her quick as seemed like a scam! beware
