A speaker with 'egg-cellent' sound

May 8th 2008 05:34

There's no question that the iPod and other MP3 players have revolutionalised the way we listen to music both on the go or at home when attached to a docking station or a set of speakers.

This egg shaped speaker and docking station by designer Nathan Gabriele is the perfect complement to your state-of-the-art iPod. There are four transformations for this speaker - charge, use in base, standalone and take out while the basic egg shaped can be unmounted to form two speakers, a subwoofer and a base for docking a MP3 player or for recharging purposes.

And when the need for portability arises, it also comes with its own custom-fit carry bag - we bet people will look on in interest at what you're carrying! [yankodesign.com]

March 10th 2008 22:08

Sure, the Apple iPod still reigns supreme - by quite a margin - in the heavily congested portable MP3 player market but that hasn't stopped the likes of rival companies such as Sony trying to get a stronger foothold or market share in this highly competitive segment

Listen to music underwater

October 27th 2006 07:35

Bring the audio experience with you the next time you head out for a swim with the SwiMP3 player. This device is 100% waterproof and offers a very different method of input. There are no headphones to contend with - instead, you use a couple of pads that rest against your cheek bone to transmit the sounds into your ear with unprecedented clarity via bone conduction technology.

Too bad the SwiMP3 is extremely expensive for a 128MB digital audio player, chalking up $250 at the cash register. The 4 hours battery life is also questionable, but chances are you won't be swimming for four hours in a row.

Woofer redefines speaker design

October 25th 2006 00:51

Don't go running to the SPCA just yet - what you're seeing is actually a rather grotesque design for a speaker system. Known as the Woofer for obvious reasons, these headless speakers weigh 5kg a pop and has a living room friendly measurement of 21.5" x 17.6" x 9.8". Sound quality is pretty good at 60 watts R.M.S. being "barked" by each. The Woofer consists of a a co-axial two-way speaker system and will definitely set tongues wagging whenever a stranger steps foot into your house. They're not cheap though, and will cost you €599. You can pick up an obedient guard dog for less.
