If you're just starting out and haven't reached Slash-like levels yet, tuning your guitar can be a royal pain in the ass. Assuming you haven't developed the ear for it, whipping out a tuner and tightening up the strings can take up a bit of your precious time. With the new Peavey AT-200 guitar featuring Auto-Tune, ... continue reading
Long before white Apple gear, we remember being amazed by tiny cube speakers from Bose. They were one of our first true pieces of audio love. Now, the company that holds a special place in our ears and hearts has given us an awesome TV sound system setup with a single speaker. The speaker fits neatly under your HDTV ... continue reading
It might be a rare occasion, but if you have ever dropped your pocket knife in a pond while out camping, you know the annoyance involved in retrieving that sucker. The Cork Knife eliminates any fear of cutting rope on the side of a lake or whittling wood over a creek while you're on your next trip. The cork handle ... continue reading
Plenty of companies set out with lofty goals, uncompromising ideas and that last little bit of something that they need to create an awesome product. Most of them don't succeed. And Aedle? Well, damn. Have you seen these headphones? After years in development, the Aedle VK-1 Headphones (both the Classic Edition and ... continue reading
Dropping a large speaker into your home is a decision few make any more. Why buy a big boxy unit when there are minuscule ones that pump out just as delicious of a sound? We would make an exception, however, if the speaker was so good looking that it became a piece of art for our pad. Such is the case with the Transparent ... continue reading
When we first saw the blurb about the Olive ONE HD Music Player, we thought the same thing you're probably thinking right now--I don't need another music player, that's why I have Pandora/Spotify/Airplay. We initially dismissed it, but that was a mistake. Olive (the company, not the martini accoutrement) manufacturers ... continue reading
If we're being completely honest, it takes a lot for a bluetooth speaker to impress us these days. It seems like every company that makes anything involving a circuit board also makes a bluetooth speaker. While any one of them will probably get your music wirelessly from your phone to the speaker to your ears, most ... continue reading
As much as we love our wireless Bluetooth speaker, we have to admit, we're wary about taking it camping or to the beach when the summer hits. Boombot REX is designed to be your new portable music pumper that can stand up to the elements. The small, dual-driver speaker is water-resistant, rugged and can be clamped right ... continue reading
Our musical talents are limited at best. Yeah, we picked up a guitar awhile back to try and impress women, but outside of that, we leave it to the pros. One instrument we can handle, however, is the classic kazoo. Now, we're not going to go around with one of those plastic numbers you get for a quarter in a machine ... continue reading
In a market that is starting to get flooded with Jambox-esque looking Bluetooth speakers, it's starting to become necessary to have something that makes your portable tune blaster stand out. Lowdi makes a worthy case. The new tiny Bluetooth speaker is the smallest on the market, meaning it owns the portability crown. ... continue reading
The opening of the Kickstarter video for ORA pretty aptly describes how we feel about our iPads. They're fantastic for doing a lot of things, but the sound really sucks. There are a lot of options on the market to get better sound out of the little tablet that could, but they're either huge or they don't look all that ... continue reading
We've been known to belt out a little Michael Jackson in the shower from time to time. When you're in the shower, you're a rockstar. You might as well be in front of Madison Square Garden. But there's also neighbors, permanent roommates and other residents to consider. You need a bit of a buffer and that's where actual ... continue reading
When a headphone brand has a name like Harman associated with them, they don't need to dabble in the flashy, trendy and/or cool that seems to be sweeping the rest of the headphone industry. They need to keep the same ridiculous level of quality the customer is used to, but throw in some new innovative features every ... continue reading
Have you ever walked into a party and immediately wanted to hijack the tunes? We'd all like to think we have pretty good taste in music, but sooner or later even the diehard fans are going to be pissed if you put Fun on repeat too many times. For all those occasions, and just throwing a quick DJ setup together without ... continue reading
Beats just released that cool new wireless system called the "Pill," and now there's a new set of headphones joining the ranks of the post-Monster regime of Beats products. The Executive Headphones were designed from the ground up to be good for travel. They're lightweight, comfortable, fold-flat and feature the same ... continue reading
We can tell the difference between nice, warm vinyl and the tinny output of the same track from an iPhone, but we're by no means audiophiles in the classical sense of the word. When we heard about these NuForce Bluetooth 4.0 speakers it was a little bit of a shock to us because we didn't even know there was a Bluetooth ... continue reading
