Microlab have been around a long time but are still a relative unknown under that name, although there is a good chance you have heard Microlab products at work, not to long ago in what many would consider Creative Audios height of sound reproduction quality the speakers you would find in those systems were more often than not made by Microlab

10 Soundsysteme unter 100 Euro „Wer billig kauft, kauft zweimal“ – das ist ein bekannter Satz, den Neunmalkluge in jeder Lebenslage anbringen – auch bei Lautsprechern. Doch ist günstig wirklich billig?

We all know that MP3/4 players, tablets, cellular phones and basically pretty much every portable device that is capable of reproducing media files comes with earphones bundled in the same box (even tape/CD/MD players had one) which are just but basic/low-cost pairs. For good or bad to most people that specific pair will be more than just enough (especially since it comes at almost no cost) but audio enthusiasts and generally people who always want the best they can afford will certainly search the market for something better with the name of one of the well-known manufacturers in the field such as Sennheiser, Sony and others. Honestly that was also the path i used to take up to around 5-6 years ago but after having tested many earphones by quite a few of the lesser known manufacturers i no longer pay much attention on brand names but rather on the product itself. Thinksound is one such manufacturer and ever since i received and tested their TS02+Mic earset roughly two years ago i consider them to be amongst the very few manufacturers that actually hit the sweet spot between audio quality and price without sacrificing build quality, quite the opposite actually. So for the past month we've been testing their brand new MS01 8mm in-ear monitor with passive noise isolation to see if it walks on the same successful path as the TS02+Mic.

Although the LES Media Speakers, Audyssey's first speaker model, offered both analog and digital input (something not often found on stereo speakers in this market), the one area they fell short was the absence of an auxiliary input. Whenever I wanted to listen to media off my phone or tablet I had to constantly unplug the speakers from my computer and plug them into whichever device I wanted to listen from next. Audyssey listened to their buyers though, and where most manufacturers would simply slap an auxiliary input on to the speakers, Audyssey upped the ante and released a bluetooth pair (still supporting legacy analog input as well). Today I happen to have a set of the Wireless Media Speakers here for review and I am anxious to see if the addition of wireless Bluetooth audio will have any impact on the sound quality of these great speakers!

Wired portable media speakers have been around for quite a long time (mostly small stereo ones) but it wasn't until smartphones made their debut around a decade ago that manufacturers focused on the design and manufacture of wireless ones via Bluetooth connectivity. Fast forward a decade and right now the market is literally filled with countless Bluetooth compatible portable speakers of virtually every size possible which not only can be used to significantly boost the audio levels of your smartphone but can also double as speakerphones. To date only two such devices have really peaked our interest, the quite powerful and unique looking SOLEMATE Bluetooth Portable Speaker by Jabra and the extremely easy to use Boost Plus Near Field Audio Amplifying Speaker (needs no wires and Bluetooth to work) by iFrogz. Recently however Antec launched their Antec Mobile Products division (a.m.p) through which they aim to dominate that market with their latest SP1 Portable Wireless Bluetooth Speaker & Speakerphone which we have here today.

Razer is a well know manufacturer of gaming equipment. In this review we are looking at
their Razer Tiamat 7.1 - Gamer Surround Headset - the first real Surround Sound Headset
with 10 individual built-in drivers.
The specifications sounds promising, but how is the real life experience with the Razer
Tiamat 7.1 - Gamer Surround Headset?

The Vulcan ANC headset uses active noise cancellation to add to complete in game immersion, and is the first we have seen to do so with no loss in bass and fidelity, as well as outstanding passive noise cancellation of > 30 dB. 40mm drivers using neodymium magnets are engineered for extreme low end punch coupled with crystal clear highs for unparalleled in game experience coupled with precision placement. The Spitfire dongle ups the ante with built in amp for lower distortion, 7.1 virtual surround and ASUS’ unique FPS EQ. The Vulcan Pro can also be used with your favorite sound card without the Spitfire USB if desired.

Razer is one of the oldest manufacturer of Sound Cards. Some of you may remember the good old Sound Blaster 1 . The product we will review here is the new Creative Sound Blaster Z Sound Card.

Up for review today I have headphones, not just any headphones, but the new EVAC from Wicked Audio. The EVAC headphones are budget priced yes, but they sound pretty good overall. The headphones are made well, they’re lightweight and they comes with nicely padded earpieces and headband so you can wear them comfortably for long periods of time. The headphones can are also collapsible so you can easily take them with you if you need be. So read on to learn more…

Questa settimana abbiamo provato per voi il nuovo modello di casse 2.0 prodotte e distribuite dalla Empire Media che rispondono al nome di S-350. Presentate alla stampa all’inizio di marzo e venute disponibili la fine dello scorso mese di aprile, le Empire sono un kit 2.0, ovvero senza un sub dedicato, abbastanza atipico, che rinuncia a differenza di alcuni suoi concorrenti, ad una corsa sempre più pressante al “downsizing” dimensionale, per abbracciare una configurazione piuttosto usata nel passato nelle casse hi-fi, ovvero l’uso di un sistema a tre vie per riprodurre il suono.
