The E10, E30, EH11 and P30 are SoundMAGIC's latest offerings of low-end, high-quality headphone/earphones. Spotted by us at the SoundMAGIC booth at the HKTDC Electronics Fair back in April, the line ranges from IEMs (including bass boosting ones - the successor the the PL30s?), built-in earhook regular earphones, and thin headphones. There is now a thorough and in-depth review + specs on each of the new offerings over at www.inearmatters.net. The reviews shows off each product, complete with images and full specs, and then goes into packaging & build quality, sound quality and final verdict on the lot. Check out the full review here.

Naturally we made a bee-line to the SoundMagic booth during the HKTDC Electronics Fair yesterday, and what we found on display was their 'Easter delights' - the E10, E30 and EH11 in-ear headphones that we have blogged about before. It was nice seeing these bad boys in person, and despite us not wanting to insert their sample (sampled by many) units in our ears for hygiene sake, we're pretty sure their sound quality was good. To briefly recap you on the specs: the E10 uses a dynamic driver with a frequency of 15Hz~22KHz and a DC resistance of 16Ohms, the E30 and EH11 also uses dynamic drivers and have a frequency range of 15Hz~22KHz and a DC resistance of 12Ohms (for the E30s) and 16Ohms (for the EH11s). The EH11s come with slim ear clips and all of the in-ears come in a vibrant array of
This April sees several new SoundMagic products, the P30, E10, E30 and EH11. We have SoundMagic products in our store, so seeing new babies like these is always a delight. The P30s are portable headphones that come with a sturdy metal band within the headband and plastic (Polycarbonate) covering on the earpieces which is said to be much more impact bearing than other types of plastic. It uses leather for the earpads and headband so comfort and noise isolation are ticked off the list. Its sound signature is said to be well balanced and accurate with excellent soundstage and powerful bass. The headphone also comes with a single-sided cable coming out of the left side and the whole thing is made to be folded up for travel. The P30s come in either black or white. As for specs: dynamic driver

Top 10 Stocking Stuffers for 2009
We get a lot of people sending in support tickets and forums threads asking us every year good gift selections, so this year we thought we would be a little better and make a list of what we think are our top 10 stocking stuffers, which will be followed up with our top 10 gift ideas for products that are sold on MP4 Nation. Our top 10 list after the jump!
10. Nationite OS-81 2GB $59.50
Well its the only MP4 player we would suggest as a stocking stuffer, mainly because of its low price, BUT, don't think that just because it has 2GB that it won't make for a good deal or gift. The OS-81 allows for external memory and the internal memory, for music, to be combined into one playlist, so essentially you can add an 8GB card full of music and have a total of

Tech Power Up SoundMagic PL30 Review
Introducing (finally) the new Beta Brainwavz, our second addition to our Brainwavz earphone line. The Betas are somewhat quite different from what the Alphas are like.

The elongated earphone shaft enables the Betas to have very good isolation which benefit low and high frequencies, but for those that prefer a more tamed highs.
The Betas come with a second attachable grill, which can shave
