Hasta La Gadget!

Definitive Technology intends to make a splash at CES 2013 which is set to happen just next week at Las Vegas, Nevada, by making an announcement of their Sound Cylinder portable Bluetooth speaker system. This is the first Bluetooth speaker system from them, where it has been said to deliver high performance audio to devices such as tablets as well as other portable Bluetooth enabled devices connected to it. I guess this does have its place in the market, considering how devices such as tablets do not pack the relevant amount of aural punch where its speakers are concerned.

You need not worry about your tablet losing its balance and falling face forward, scratching its precious display along the way, as the Sound Cylinder comes with an innovative clip system that ensures it will securely attach the speaker to majority of the tablets out there in the market, in addition to numerous laptops.

There is more than meets the eye where the Sound Cylinder is concerned, as it also doubles up as a table stand for an attached tablet. Thanks to an integrated pivoting “kickstand”, it is capable of securely holding the device at an ideal angle when it comes to viewing and listening. Since it carries Bluetooth functionality, it will be able to connect wirelessly to Bluetooth enabled devices, or you can always take the wired route via an audio cable to any device that has an analog audio output jack.

Thanks to its integrated rechargeable battery, the Sound Cylinder is said to deliver up to 10 hours of high quality listening. With a built-in side-firing subwoofer in addition to stereo speakers, listeners are able to enjoy rich, full-bodied stereo sound regardless of where they are, and Surround Array image enhancement processing creates a life-like soundstage which extends beyond the compact dimensions of the cylinder. The asking price for the Sound Cylinder would be $199 a pop. Any takers?

I suppose with the worldwide economic crunch happening at this point in time, it makes perfect sense for most of the folks out there to be a whole lot more careful with their money – and that would include making sound choices when it comes to purchasing items that you need to use, regardless of whether we are talking about everyday groceries or expensive consumer electronics. When it comes to budget friendly speaker systems for your desktop, the name Edifier has been making its rounds to much effect, and here we are today with yet another Edifier offering, which would be the Edifier Prisma Bluetooth speaker system.

At first glance, I must say that the Edifier Prisma Bluetooth speaker system does look prety cool, boasting elegant aesthetics, crystal clear sound reproduction and Bluetooth connectivity so that you get to enjoy a cable-free environment, at least on the part of a speaker, leaving you with one less way of tripping over. Let us dive into greater detail where the Prisma Bluetooth speaker system is concerned.

For starters, the Prisma Bluetooth will, as its name suggests, feature a built-in Bluetooth receiver which is capable of synchronizing with any Bluetooth enabled device in order for it to wirelessly stream music up to a range of 30 feet. Not only that, it will also come equipped with a couple of auxiliary input ports for maximum flexibility, where one is located on the subwoofer, while the other is on the remote.

The remote control itself boasts of a headphone-out port which lets you enjoy a personal audio experience, where you are able to control the master volume on the remote, not to mention having a separate bass adjustment dial located on the subwoofer control. I can almost hear Emperor Palpatine scream, “Power! Unlimited power!” with its 48 watt RMS speaker system.

What then, is the asking price for the Edifier Prisma Bluetooth speaker system? Well, a $129.99 price point sure sounds decent enough.
