Hide Your Ugly Speakers in a Trunk or Clock Speaker Cover
November 21, 2008
We all love our music but sometimes the speakers that pump our tunes out aren’t as pretty as we would like them to be. Acoustic Research has a solution to that problem. Decorative speaker covers. Hide your speaker in a wicker box, or satellite speakers in Sconces. There is also a clock to hide them in or a set of fake books. Insert your speakers into these cases from either the top or bottom. If you have larger speakers, there are leather chests for $129.95 that will cover those as well. The best part is the sound won’t be affected at all and you’ll have people guessing were the music is coming from - which should be pretty entertaining in itself.

October 17, 2008

At first glance these speakers look more like large pieces of carved crystal rather than a pair of loudspeakers. However, the Harman Kardon GLA-55 2.0-Powered Loudspeaker System (Clear) is aiming for both style and quality. Exclusively sold at Amazon for $999.00, it may seem pricey for most but you are not only paying for a quality listening experience but also a piece of art that will mesh with any office or home decor.

The LED lights on the speakers will also display if the unit is in standby, mute, or on.

Trace Audio Helmet Protects & Rocks Out at the Same Time
October 8, 2008
The purpose of a helmet is to keep you safe so we think a helmet with built-in speakers is kind of an oxymoron since it’s inevitably going to distract you. Anyway, the R.E.D. Protection Trace Audio Helmet features DJ-quality low profile-speakers which can be connected to our iPod or any other Mp3 player. The helmet itself features an injected ABS shell, a removable Goggle Clip, a Removable Goggle Gasket, and front vent plugs. We’ll pretend that we understood any of that. The R.E.D.
