Benjamin Otterstein

Benjamin Otterstein has already left his mark on the likes of F.A.Z. Kaufkompass, GameStar Tech, Mac Life and Giga, and is now raving on headphonecheck.com. He raves about everything that makes sound - headphones, speakers, home cinema systems - even though he can't sing a note. Instead, he is an incurable film and TV junkie who regularly plunges into new gaming worlds and tries out every tech gadget he can get his hands on. He always has headphones and a tablet with him when he travels, because nothing works for Benjamin without a proper entertainment setup!
