You can't even go to a big box store these days without seeing a few different bluetooth portable speakers because they're pretty much everywhere. You might be content with the indoor tunes that get pumped out of the one you already have (it may or may not be branded with a name that refers to a bone in the human face), ... continue reading
On a daily basis, we give our headphones a beating akin to something Glass Joe would have experienced. From tossing them in our work bag to ripping them off our head like they were something we got for free on a flight, they usually don't last as long as we would like. With this in mind, AiAiAi went out and built their ... continue reading
You probably already know the benefits of using whiskey stones instead of ice in your drink. Basically, they cool your drink without watering it down so you get all the flavor you expect at a bit more pleasant temperature. With these Icon Whiskey Stones, you can add a bit more fun to your boozing experience. Available ... continue reading
There are plenty of options on the market for a portable speaker that syncs with your smartphone via Bluetooth, but it always comes back to the Jawbone Jambox. The Jambox is awesome, but it’s also pricey. If you want to support “the little guy,” and get a little more bang for your buck, check out the EDGE.sound ... continue reading
When Aiaiai released the TMA-1 DJ headphones, it was all about filling the gap for all the people looking for a great pair of "DJ quality" headphones. The TMA-1 Studio Heaphones pick up where the existing pair left off and take them that final step into the pro audio world. Their are now two types of ear pads(protein ... continue reading
There are products that are just too cool not to post about it. Outside of Bang & Olufsen, this Rock Apple Wood Beats iPhone Speaker Docking Station is probably the most expensive dock/speaker/organizer combo you'll see. It costs $600. That's not exactly chump change in this economy, but it's worth it if you like ... continue reading
The NuForce Cube is like the Swiss Army Knife of gadgets, there's a lot going on in a really small package (that's what she said). Besides being a solid portable speaker, the NuForce Cube is also a headphone amp and a digital-to-analog converter. So basically, you're handling a slew of problems with one crafty ... continue reading
If you've been in the market for a mysterious item to put in your apartment that will make guests say, "What the hell is that thing?" ... congratulations. The AlphaSphere will not only pique interests, but will far exceed whatever your unknowing friends assumed the futuristic-looking ball happened to be. Through ... continue reading
Normally we'd say your daily wardrobe shouldn't include more than one piece of denim. You want to rock some jeans with a denim jacket? Okay, but let's not go too crazy now Levi. We will make an exception, however, for these new Urbanears headphones. The Denim Edition is the latest to join the Plattan ranks, and we're ... continue reading
There are two types of music fans: The casual fan who is okay listening to their tracks through some cheap-o headphones they got at a convenience store, and those that actually care about the quality of their audio. While the latter side can go to extremes, we'd align ourselves more with them than the old guy at the ... continue reading
Spotify has single-handedly changed the way we digest music. We love Grooveshark because the annoying IT guy won't let us install anything on our computers, and it's great for making Mixtapes, but it won't work on our iDevices. With Spotify you don't have to worry about syncing your iPhone or your iPad. You don't have ... continue reading
Rocketfish, otherwise known as the Best Buy house brand, doesn't make too many new-fangled gadgets and doohickeys that you haven't seen before. But since they have a name like Best Buy behind them, what they can do is make all the stuff you were already thinking about buying for a fraction of the price that anyone ... continue reading
When Jawbone decided to make a bigger version of the Jambox, we can only assume that after hours of debating names someone half-jokingly tossed out, "What about 'Big Jambox?'" At that the team, so tired from crafting a kick-ass product, responded with a, "Fine, now can we please get some drinks." And that makes us ... continue reading
Even if you could get perfect sound from a pair of speakers, if they were bright pink and had pictures of Hannah Montana on them (that's what the kids are watching these days, right?) we would never buy them. Are we image obsessed? Hell yeah we are. Is it too much to ask to get something that is well-made and stylish ... continue reading
We love bikes. We love music. We would love to be able to combine the two of them so we could feel like Peter Griffin in that episode of Family Guy when his life has its own soundtrack, but it never seems to be that easy. Earbuds fall out. Studio cans block out all traffic noise, which is a problem when a hook-and-ladder ... continue reading
As we made our way through the various rooms at The New York Audio and AV Show (you can read about it here), we were struck by a common theme: We can't afford any of this. Don't get us wrong, the stuff was amazing, but it left us wishing we had a wallet bursting with bills and not random business cards. Oddly enough, ... continue reading
