Another pair of strong headphones from Beyerdynamic. If you’re after a smooth, weighty sound, these will do nicely.

[Review] Beyerdynamic DX 160 iE | Nasi Lemak Tech

Beyerdynamic's 2014 lineup of new earphones are something to look at - especially the DX series, which they claim are premium pair of earphones. Now, this does look and a lot like the DX 120 iE, but I can assure you that this pair of earphones is something that just blew my ears apart.

A bona fide audiophile in-ear headphone that costs less than you'd think

The Beyerdynamic DX 160 iE and step-down DX 120 iE are among the best sounding in-ear headphones in their price range.
