Headphones always make for a truly thoughtful gift. In a world awash with headphones where do you find ones that will really bring music alive? Well, right here. We have two suggestions, each unique in their own way: Stax is the ultimate for relaxing at home, and the very elegant Pryma for music on the go. Both are of audiophile quality so you can be assured of your choice.

This is a great way to go if there is someone in your life (or you yourself), who loves listening to their stereo. They would be over the moon to get something which would make it even more enjoyable. Putting in better cables is an easy way to do this. We simply can’t say enough about how good the KLEI cables really are and the improvements they make to music listening. We understand that this can sometimes be a tricky one to know what to get so we are very happy for you to ask our advice. There is a range of types and prices.

Bluetooth has a lot going for it as a wifi system – it’s simple, works almost anywhere and is as close as we come to a universal standard. Yet the simplicity and ubiquity of bluetooth means it’s often seen as a compromise option. The arrival of a new and affordable bluetooth centred product – the iFi Zen Blue at just NZ$280 changes this way of thinking.
