Listening to music while relaxing in your swimming pool just got a whole lot easier. Neiman Marcus’ website is selling a floating wireless speaker for $150, which includes the base and one speaker. Any additional speakers would be an extra $100. The speakers are able to go up to 9-feet underwater for up to 30 minutes, just in case you dive on top of one. But no worries, as they can “swim” better than most people, as they won’t stay... Continue reading

While the rest of the details are extremely intricate, anyone who can... Continue reading

Until science figured out a cure for blindness, you would never get to see the blue sky on a clear day or how green the grass can get in the spring.

The Bright-F detects and translates brightness, saturation, and color into unique sounds. Forget about... Continue reading

Silence can be so uncomfortable. Even when you’re chilling with friends, there’s that awkward silence that is deafening with its nothingness. Otto (Greek for “ear”) is a device which you can hook up to just about any dynamic object or situation to hear sounds that are otherwise inaudible. Otto then amplifies the sound, creating a whole new ambient experience. For example, hook Otto up to a glass of water and drift into the noise of ice clinking together and liquid... Continue reading

Yamaha has been working on an interesting sound delivery technology with their sound systems, they call this the “Sound Beam”, which essentially is a more focused chain of sound wave adjusted to give the loudest intensity to the listener and the listener only. With that, you will still be able to listen to your music at a house party with everybody screaming around, and your music will pretty much not be affected or affect the background music. If you feel... Continue reading

ZVOX just came out with the ultimate sound system for just about anywhere. The ZVOX 325 is a whole surround sound... Continue reading

Not only does this beautiful piece of technology (the Philips AmbiSound HTS8100) look as if God himself made it, it also has such an inmense amount of technology inside of it that it won the Innovations Award at CES 2007.

The SoundBar itself has what is called precise driver positioning (a new technology) that gives... Continue reading
