SonicBoom PSP and DAP Speakers

By: Jenn K. Lee on August 13, 2006 9:37 AM

Take a look at this new 2.1 stereo speaker system by GEAR4 that acts as a docking station for the PSP and also connects to just about any gadget equipped with a headphone jack. The SonicBoom features an ActiveBass 9.6W subwoofer and two speakers offering 2.4W per channel, the combination of which GEAR4 claims will deliver a "truly awesome audio experience." To boost the experience (and encourage sloth-like behavior), the speakers are bundled with 6-foot FreeStyle cable extenders so you can kick back and use your device while lying down.

For about $100, the SonicBoom (black or white) can be yours in mid-September.

is the white psp ever coming to the usa!?

i'd think during the holiday

apple has a black and white video and nano

sony is making a rather stupid marketing decision

the mylo comes in black in white so why not the psp???

plus the fact that the psp and mylo doesn't have a hard drive

so stupid - BUT I WILL NEVER BUY AN IPOD

Jenn,

This might do nicely for the Mylo device... although the all-white model is not my style.. the black unit might be a great match.... it would be nice to have this for movies being watched on the Mylo... or music for that matter..

That's a great idea, Utew!

Whoever gets it first must post a pic :)

I don't care much for the all white either, though it would complement a pink ZVM quite nicely. I wish the black mylo didn't have those orange accents...

SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.

Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
Phonak Audéo PFE

Phonak Audéo PFE offer outstanding clarity and precision; natural, dynamic mids and treble, and decent bass for a single armature in-ear phone. They handle dense, complex music very well. The PFE work well with most acoustic and some electronic music genres, but bassheads might have to look at other alternatives. They're great for sports as well, since they fit very securely.
