Just When You Need It … The Sound Blaster Roar

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 09:37 AM PST

The Sound Blaster Roar is a portable Bluetooth Wireless speaker, designed to deliver loud and well-balanced audio out of a compact booklet-sized speaker. This is made possible, all thanks to its five-driver design that is housed within an acoustically optimized speaker enclosure. This design encompasses one active 2.5" driver and two side-firing passive radiators to pump out thumping bass, as well as two active 1.5" drivers to deliver far-field, balanced highs.

Details:

  • Versatile ways to connect your devices to the speaker: Bluetooth, NFC, USB and Aux-in;
  • Built-in MP3 player and recorder via microSD card;
  • Dual-purpose 6000mAh built-in battery – up to 8h of battery life, also serves as a battery bank to charge your mobile devices;
  • Charge the speaker via Micro USB or the power adapter that’s included;
  • High Quality Wireless Audio codecs- aptX and AAC;
  • Connect two Sound Blaster Roar with a MegaStereo Cable to enjoy a wider sound stage with twice the punch;

Award-Winning Design

The design of the Sound Blaster Roar aims not to only deliver impressive audio quality; it also stands out as a stylish conversation piece with its metallic finishing and purposeful clean lines. It comes as no surprise that this device won the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2014.

Hear The ROAR

For a portable speaker of its size, the Sound Blaster Roar already delivers accurate, well-balanced, and precise audio. You can also simply boost the loudness, depth and spaciousness of the audio instantly with the Roar feature. This is especially handy for house parties.

Handsome Handmade Lighting

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 04:41 AM PST

From the makers of the super-portable T1 lamp comes an equally minimalist counterpart that feels right at home on the top of your desk. Called the T2 lamp, its thin form is achieved thanks to a custom LED board producing 520 Lux of brightness using only 2 watts of power! In a material mix of natural wood, steel glass, and colorful cording, it’s the best looking T lamp yet.

The Proper Way To Listen To Music

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 12:01 AM PST

Audiophile or not, the basic requirement for enjoying your music is a great speaker. If you add portability, then you have a winner on your hands. I’m talking about the Proper Audio 2, a speaker that offers rich sound and great flexibility. The truth behind portable speakers is that they are mostly used at home or at work, so instead of paying a premium for a tiny speaker, PA2 gives you useful movability, great sound and sleek looks at an amazing price.

Here are a couple of reasons why I’d recommend you back this amazingly awesome Kickstarter project:

  • The speakers are ultra portable and easy to mount.
  • Once elegantly mounted, the speakers create a full room sound experience.
  • The slim, low profile mount disks are barely visible. Simply stick them in each room and move the speakers effortlessly.
  • The mount disks are available in Black or White and install in 2 seconds with simple, residue free 3M adhesive.
  • Excellent for on the go; a single charge makes the battery last for full eight hours.
  • Specs include Bluetooth, compatibility with iOS, Android, Mac OSX, Blackberry, Windows, etc.

What really excited me is that this is also the world's first magnetic iPhone speaker mount. We spoke with the designers to expand on this and Alon Tamir said, “With simple tap and go iPhone mounting, your speaker becomes the best place to leave your iPhone and enjoy movies, music videos, coverflow, facetime, Skype or anything else with great, big sound. It’s a completely new speaker experience.”

Enough said! The speakers are classy and a must-have, so check out the full details here.

No-Brainer Kitchen Strainer

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 12:01 AM PST

To ensure produce is free of dangerous pesticides and other residue, it is recommended they’re submerged for 20-30 minutes, but running water for that long is unrealistic and wasteful. To aid in the process, the Anton Strainer Bowl is designed to keep the contents submerged until you’re ready to strain with a simple filter and spout placed on the side rather than bottom. Better yet the placement avoids overfilling and its long spout doubles as a handle for easy maneuvering in the kitchen. Vid after the jump!

DIY Matter Maker

Posted: 20 Nov 2014 12:01 AM PST

The Alchemist Matter kit teaches you how to create DIY matter through physicochemical phenomena. Mind blown? In a nutshell… it’s a cleverly designed for kids, teaching them to experiment with components that look similar to the naked eye but react differently—the same way that alchemists, the ancestors of chemists, did! It’s the first steps for basic chemistry presented in a fun, hands-on, educational way! See how it works….

This educational toolkit is composed of three modular test-tube racks, with containers filled with different raw materials, and a manual that guides you though a gradual learning process. Once you have used the raw material samples, you can easily refill the containers with the same or different raw materials, as suggested in the instruction manual. The raw material samples come from products generally used around the home.  All the sample materials are easy to find and innocuous. They are both fundamental principles of this product. They must not be placed in the mouth, and for that reason the activities require the supervision of an adult.
