How to make your music sound better
Feb 29 2008
Like most good things in life, the more you invest in improving your music-listening experience, the more satisfaction you'll get from it. True, some people can go overboard on this stuff, but for most of us, a modest investment can reap huge payoffs in the sound quality and the emotional impact derived from your music collection. Whether it's listening to an iPod during your commute, or enjoying streaming Internet radio from your computer, there are some worthwhile purchases you can make to take your music experience to the next level.

Noise-canceling headphones
Anyone who's ever tried listening to their MP3 player on a bus or the subway can attest to the fact that noise can ruin music, as well as cause you to crank the volume to unsafe levels. Active noise-canceling headphones such as the Bose QuietComfort 3s are a marvel of the modern age. Even if you work in relatively quiet office, noise-canceling headphones provide the kind of sonic solitude that can rescue your sanity and set an ideal stage for your music. While the Bose are probably the best in class for noise-canceling headphones, there are plenty of other, less expensive, options to consider.
