CoM - Speaker 2

Whether you’re a fan of music, podcasts, or audiobooks, there’s nothing quite like being able to take your favourite audio with you wherever you go. It’s even better when you don’t have to worry about wires. This Cult of Mac Deals offer takes care of you on both fronts – and at a price that sounds just as sweet.

The Soundbrick is a high-quality Bluetooth speaker that gives you  [Read More...]

The Siri icon Siri defaults to speaking responses back through the speakers of the iPhone and iPad, and often quite loudly at that. Though you can control Siri’s volume level independently of general system audio levels, having the voice of Siri be set to a very quiet level isn’t much of a solution if you actually want to hear responses.

Hey fellas. You know what the laydeez love more than anything? Ferrari-branded gear, that’s what.

iHome iBT24

 

Yeah, that’s a bit of sarcasm up there in the hed; there’s obviously no lack of choice regarding Bluetooth speakers. This year’s CES exploded with Bluetooth, and it doesn’t seem a day goes by that a manufacturer doesn’t release another model.

Three of the colorful Bluetooth boxes are available now: The bare-bones, cube-like iBT16 ($  [Read More...]

The Big Jambox is pretty much the rockingest portable Bluetooth speaker you can get, but at $ 299, it’s not cheap. If you don’t mind a couple of minor aesthetic blemishes, though, you can now get a Big Jambox for about the price of the regular Jambox: around $ 158.

The deal is being made over at All4Cellular, which is offering the Big Jambox speaker (refurbished) for about half off in Graphite  [Read More...]

Iphone diy box

You could easily make your own iPhone amplifier dock from a shoebox. Or better, an old wooden wine case. Or best of all, you could get out your clamps, drills, router and hot glue and go medieval on some pile of wood’s ass. If you choose the latter route, then you should download the plans (totally SFW) from Renee at Red Bird Blue – her amazing creation is what  [Read More...]

Rocksteady XS by Killer Concepts Category: Speakers Works With: Anything Price: $ 100

The Rocksteady XS is meant to be a tough, loud outdoor speaker. And it is. But how does it stack up, sound and feature-wise, against some rather stiff competition?

Rocksteady

The speaker offers some great features. It’s aluminum, and yet costs just $ 100. It has Bluetooth, but also has a jack  [Read More...]
