Summer is round the corner so we thought it was about time to suggest some great travel headphones for your journeys abroad, long train trips and flights to distant lands. Or a stroll down to the supermarket.

If you are looking for a general use headphone with good isolation, look no further. Any and every music type sounds excellent with plenty of space and the feeling that these headphones are enjoying themselves just as much as the listener is!

The Pioneer SE-MS7BT are a great performer for the price, they offer an engaging, upfront sound that is sure to please fans of rock music.

For some years now the fine E10 from SoundMAGIC has assaulted our shores and needs no introduction; it has remained a firm favourite everywhere and shows no signs of losing that favour despite being in its 6th year since its release.

The London Marathon is back, and promises to torture participants with its gruelling tour of the Big Smoke.

The Sennheiser PXC550 is excellent at noise cancellation; watch out Bose! Also the build quality is what we'd expect of a premium Sennheiser product; it's light but solid.

With the B&W P7 Wireless, Bowers have made a great little portable headphone, with a fun and engaging sound signature in an understated, yet executive look.

The Koss Porta Pros are still very popular after more than 30 years, even amongst people who own other headphones costing an arm and a leg.

The GS2000e has a slightly understated sound when compared to the GS1000e; the emphasis on bass and treble is reduced, which makes the midrange more of a centrepiece. Harmonics and therefore imaging will be a little stronger on the GS2000e, thanks to the relatively present midrange.

A very able earphone for the asking price; the RHA S500 is not typical of models in this price range with its present midrange so will be a good option for those who prefer acoustic or vocal recordings.
