Altec Lansing inMotion MIX iMT800 Portable Digital Boom Box

Wacker — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 04:25:07 +0000

This Altec Lansing inMotion MIX iMT800 does reminds me the cassette boom boxes that I saw in 70’s and 80’s movies. This is the reborn for the boom box, but not for cassettes anymore, instead includes many advance features of the digital age.

The Altec Lansing inMotion MIX can work with iPhones, iPods, portable players and music phones. It is completely portable as you can put it on your shoulder like the eighties does and bring it down to the streets or go to any party. It got a average battery life of 30 Hours, which is quite enough for whole day non-stop music playback. And it also has come with FM radio too. In front of it got a high contrast LCD displays song info (song name, artist, album) and FM radio information (RDS) and you can remote control for song and playlist navigation.

Features:

Booming Stereo Sound

Of course, the combo of “DJ” and “party” requires loud and booming sound, and the MIX will deliver. Loaded with a 5.25-inch side-firing subwoofer and 5.25-inch tuned passive radiator, the MIX pumps out big natural bass, further enhanced with XdB technology for extra heavy punch. The sound is complete with a pair of 3-inch full-range drivers, a pair of 1-inch silk dome tweeters in a horn-loaded configuration. Beyond looking cool, the front-facing horns are engineered to disperse the high frequencies — which are otherwise highly directional — for great sound throughout the entire room. Quite frankly, the MIX gets loud.

The MIX also features a brightly lit LCD display that tells you the track, artist and album being played from your docked iPhone or iPod. Also, FM station data is displayed when the radio is playing.

Tailored EQ

The MIX has various EQ options that allow the user to tailor or personalize the sound. The simplest and most familiar is an adjustment of separate bass and treble controls. For more technical tuning, a digital 7-band graphic equalizer allows custom cutting or boosting of specific frequencies. Or, there are four EQ presets where just a touch of a button will tune the EQ for specific music genres, either for rock, pop, hip-hop or simply flat.

FM Radio Tuner

Moves with the Party

For entertainment beyond the iPhone and iPod, the MIX has an FM radio tuner with four station pre-sets.

Thoughtfully Designed Remote Control

True to its retro boombox roots, the MIX runs on AC or battery power. You’ll always know how much battery life you have because the MIX will tell you on its display. You can expect up to 30 hours of play with eight “D” sized batteries. And, the MIX has nicely weight-balanced handles so you can take it on the road or around the house just as easily. Between parties the remote control stows away conveniently in its own cubby. At party time, use the clip-on carabineer so the remote is always handy to command the jams. The remote allows you to toggle between all of your music sources, including the FM radio and lets you control the on/off power, volume minus, volume plus, track back, track forward, EQ, play/pause, and the four preset buttons. The four preset buttons are used for both the FM preset mode and the EQ preset mode.

Sound Card Intergrated In Mini Ball USB Speaker

Wacker — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 12:16:16 +0000

Now this is a gadget that keeps things nice and simple. If you for some reason don’t have a sound card, it still allows for you to listen to your music. It has a built-in sound card along with a tiny speaker. It’s not going to have fantastic sound, but when you don’t have a sound card, things can get fairly desperate. This would be a nice and affordable temporary fix for the issue. That or if you’re not really worried about it, it could be a permanent fix.

The little ball speakers come in 4 different colors, blue, orange, pink and finally white. With that selection it’d be easy for just about anyone to find a color they’d enjoy. The speaker itself comes on a flexible cord, so you can adjust it to get it to the most convenient position. The USB speaker can be purchased for $19 from Gadget4all. Which really isn’t a bad price, even if it has only mediocre sound quality.

FH001 Transparent Eco Friendly Speakers

Wacker — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 16:46:11 +0000

The new FH001 speakers are massive! These big boys are made of a transparent acrylic and have a super efficient design which lets them play loud and clear with as little as 3 to 50 watts. This means you don’t need a power sucking amplifier to get good sound and thus allows the manufacturer, Ferguson Hill, to call them “green”. I’m not sure if I buy that since they’re made of plastic- how about “greener”.

The clear design means that despite the huge size of these speakers, they won’t take over your whole room visually and will sort of disappear into the background. Then again, if you have room for such a large speaker and can afford the $26,000 price tag, then you probably have enough room in your home for just about anything. Personally I barely have room for a pair of earbuds, much less gigantic speakers.

USB Monkey Head Speaker

Wacker — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 16:14:28 +0000

Nothing gets your Monday off to a fresh start better than MONKEY MANIA! It’s monkey head speakers! Powered by USB, these small speakers pack a monkey punch… and by small, I mean small.. take a look at this photo for scale:

That’s a tiny monkey head. They have a rechargeable lithium ion battery inside and can connect to any device with a headphone jack. These simians will run you $10 and they come in yellow or orange, just like real monkeys. Personally I think they’re more ape-like than monkey-like but I’m definitely not a monkey expert- just a fan.
