Abstract: Ultrasone’s iCans feature the same S-Logic technology that prompted us to name the company’s Proline 750 headphones to our 2006 Best of the Best list. However, as wonderful as they sound with an iPod, they can’t displace the Shure E4g earbuds in their ...
SLogicâ„¢ technology is still nice, just not as potent as in higher end Ultrasone models, Includes a nice durable case (albeit rather large), Metallic shielding reduces electromagnetic radiation up to 98%
Overall value is less than desirable, Less than impressive overall sound quality considering the price, Looks pretty silly when worn, Headband is unnecessarily uncomfortable, Relatively easy to break and not have it covered under warranty, No active or pa...
Lets go back and take a look at each of the design objectives identified earlier and see how well the iCans performed in each category. In terms of portability the iCans are mediocre. If you transport them in the supplied carrying case youll get good...
Abstract: We attempted to put our preferences partially aside when testing Ultrasone’s iCans ($129), a pair of on-ear headphones designed to appeal to iPod users. With a light gray band, chrome sides, and white cabling, they take after the white fifth-generat...
Abstract: It’s easy to let novel headphone features distract from great sound. Ultrasone’s new simple, silver, flat-folding phones go straight for the prize, eschewing gimmicks in favor of audio quality. The ultra-lightweight design may not tickle every...

Abstract: The headphones are very oddly shaped. When you put them on your head, the come off of your head at the top right and top left a good amount… to the point where it looks like you have horns… but hey, who am I to judge, horns can be good!?...
Abstract: The iCans from Ultrasone are excellent iPod compatible earphones that will mostly appeal to an upscale audience with their US$129 price tag. However, since they’re designed to prevent ear damage and potential hearing loss, the cost seems justified...
Abstract: <b>Good:</b> The elegantly designed Ultrasone iCans feature S-Logic Natural Surround Sound technology and Ultra Low Emission shielding that reduces electromagnetic radiation. These headphones are also ultralightweight, and they fold for compact storage. A metal travel case is included.<br /> <b>Bad:</b> The Ultrasone iCans are bulkier than most portable headphones.<br /> <b>Bottomline:</b> High style meets high performance in the iPod-inspired Ultrasone iCans headphones.<br />
