The four drivers put out a combined 6 watts per channel, and JBL claims their Slipstream port design increases bass output without… → Read More

Yeah, never mind the missing second “n” in Millenia, because Paradigm’s forte is speakers, not spelling. The Millenia 20 Trio ($999) is an odd beast that combines left, right, and center-channel speakers into a single bar-shaped cabinet. Trying to fool your ears into thinking you’ve got separate speakers instead of a one-piece job is usually an exercise in futility, but the… → Read More

It’s an all-in-one device that clears up even more room on your desk than the Brando USB Hub. The Alibi combines a Web cam, speakers and microphone into a stylish and modern looking thingamabob. → Read More
“Mario? Are you in there?” Subwoofers rock. Sure you can easily listen to music without them, but when a bass-heavy song comes on, you sure as hell wish you had one sitting on the floor next to ya. The only thing better than a regular sub has to be a Super Mario Bros. one. This bitchin’ sub cabinet features two original Mario blocks, including the infamous question-mark block. → Read More

this morning, now check out an as-of-yet unannounced accessory for the Zune. The Zune dock from Altec Lansing seems to be just a set of speakers with controls on top. We say “just”, but this kind of product has fed the families of iPod accessory employees for years now. We don’t know whether the player has a USB port to connect to your computer, or whether it has any kind of AV… → Read More
so you don’t miss out on any mysteries being solved – though that never happens. The device works on a 900MHz frequency so there’s less interference with your Wireless or Bluetooth devices, and transmits from up to 30 feet away.
