We’ve all been there. We see a great deal on the perfect product, but we opt to hold off for a day, in the hope that the price will fall further — and then the deal disappears entirely. It’s an absolute nightmare and we can only blame ourselves

You may be experiencing this regret in the wake of the Black Friday sale. Well we are here to tell you it’s OK, there is no need to scold yourself. That’s if you are looking for speakers, anyway.

Echo vs. Echo Dot: What’s the difference?

sudshr47 November 13, 2018

TwitterFacebook

The smart home concept is increasingly becoming the norm. Over the past few years, we’ve seen an increase in voice recognition assistants and connected devices to make our busy lives more seamless. With a few speaking commands, we don’t have to lift a finger to play music, stream content, turn off the lights, or pick up the phone to call family members. With these advanced products, we can take the stress out of daily life tasks and have time for things we really enjoy.

With this technology boom though, it can be hard to transition your home from “basic” to “smart-home” status. First, there’s the whole convenience factor, considering some gadgets can be too complicated to use or require advanced Wi-Fi to operate. Plus, smart living doesn’t always come cheap, because you’ll most likely be dropping major bucks to access hands-free control, voice recognition, and other advanced features. Seriously though, who has the budget to replicate the high-tech pad in Disney’s Smart Home movie?  Read more…

Take a trip down memory lane with this retro-inspired speaker that’s on sale

We don’t need to tell you that the market is oversaturated with wireless, Bluetooth-enabled speakers.

With so many brands, sizes, and price points to choose from, finding a speaker that meets your needs is often easier said than done. To make matters worse, many of them boast special features like water-resistance and Alexa compatibility that make the search even more difficult.

Sometimes, all you really need — and want — is a quality speaker that’s also easy on the eyes. Lofree’s QTV Wireless Speaker does just that.

Small enough to fit inside your pocket, Lofree’s speaker is designed to look like an old-fashioned television set. You know, the kind your parents (or grandparents) would watch I Love Lucy on. You can pair it with your smartphone to blast a bumpin’ playlist, use it as an alarm clock, or set its built-in timer when you’re whipping up something delicious in the kitchen.  Read more…

Edifier’s S350DB speakers: modern sound with an old-school style

sudshr47 August 6, 2018

Let’s be honest, if you use a receiver as the hub of your home entertainment system, you probably only use about a quarter of the buttons, dials and inputs on it, at most. Not everyone needs all the bells and whistles of a receiver-driven surround sound system. For those looking to get their sound with […]

Roku’s wireless speakers aim to make TV audio more bearable

TV sound quality can vary wildly, but upgrading it can often cost a ton of money.

Roku aims to make better TV sound more accessible with its TV Wireless Speakers, a pair of easy-to-set-up stereo speakers that cost $199.99. The speakers themselves are small rectangles (sitting vertically like a Sonos One) and come in a pair, along with two remotes. However, the company did some neat work with the technology inside them.

The only cable you need is a power cord since connection from the speakers to the TV is via Roku Connect, a proprietary connection that eliminates the need for extra wiring — but also means the TV Wireless Speakers only work with TVs that support Roku’s tech. The setup seems pretty straightforward, but we have to wait to test these out in person. Read more…
