Turnroomtested

Turnroomtested is an online platform and community focused on providing unbiased, in-depth reviews of audio equipment, particularly headphones, speakers, and related accessories. Founded in 2014 by a group of audio enthusiasts, the site emphasizes transparency and thorough testing methodologies to deliver credible assessments for consumers.

The platform’s name, "turnroomtested," reflects its core approach: evaluating gear in real-world listening environments, often referred to as "turnrooms," where audio is played back in professional or home settings. This method contrasts with studio-only reviews, aiming to replicate how users experience products daily. Each review typically includes detailed observations on sound signature, build quality, comfort, and value for money, accompanied by objective measurements like frequency response graphs when applicable.

Turnroomtested distinguishes itself by avoiding industry affiliations or sponsorships, ensuring reviews remain independent. The community aspect of the site encourages user engagement through forums, where listeners discuss findings, share personal experiences, and debate technical aspects of audio equipment. Contributors often include audiophiles, engineers, and industry professionals who collaborate to maintain high standards of review integrity.

While primarily centered on headphones, the platform occasionally covers other audio products, such as DACs, amplifiers, and microphones. Its content appeals to both casual listeners and audiophiles seeking informed purchasing decisions. Turnroomtested’s approach has gained recognition in the audio community for its commitment to honesty and detailed analysis, making it a trusted resource for those navigating the complex market of high-fidelity audio gear.
