Every home office needs a Sonos Play:1. I really think that having clear, inspiring or motivating music streaming in your work space can really make your day just so much more awesome. Whether or not you're doing the boring (but necessary) work, or actually doing something enjoyable—the right music streaming from the right sound system can seriously improve things. These are my thoughts and results—I feel like there should be a disclaimer, but who amongst you wouldn't love to have a great music ...

Ready to Go: Portable Travel-Ready Belkin Fusive Speaker (with Giveaway Canada only)
I'm planning a quest to visit every National Park and National Historic Site in Canada, starting next month. It'll take me upwards of 10 years, given the size of the country and the remote location of some of the sites/parks. I'm saying this because I'll definitely be needing some music with me to listen to in hotel rooms when I travel! The Belkin Fusive Bluetooth Speaker is really light, comes with its own carrying case and puts out great sound. It's a clear winner when it comes to portability ...
It’s a Party Everytime with the Belkin Thunderstorm Speaker
Great sound reigns supreme with the Belkin Thunderstorm, which I recently received. So often, I find myself with only my iPad for music. For instance, at home. In order to hear my music in rooms other than just the one I'm in, and other than just when I'm right in front of my iPad, I need the Belkin Thunderstorm. Moving my iPad from room to room, in order to listen to music or watch movies and TV shows, I don't want to have to balance carrying a portable speaker that's plugged in, as well. ...
A Musical Adventure with the Sonos System
The Sonos system is small on size but big on sound projection, as I came to know when I checked out the Sonos Play:3 and Bridge. Small apartment, dorm room and bedroom sized musical perfection. Connecting and setting up the Sonos Play:3 and Bridge was a snap—I just needed to plug in the Bridge to my wireless router and set the Sonos Play:3 in a corner of my main living room to get started. I wanted maximum ease when it came to being able to select music to play, so I downloaded both the ...
Great Sound Audiofly AF56 In-Ear Headphones
I'm pretty sure that these headphones would be the highlight of many typical gift-giving occasions, like the big one coming up—Christmas. I know several people who have new headphones on their wish-lists. With the tin that is included, you can gift these headphones in a stocking, quite easily. I've had many sets of in-ear headphones over the years, many of which had really poor sound quality and/or the buds kept falling out of my ears! The AF56 headphones from Audiofly don't disappoint as far as ...

a-JAYS Four In-Ear Headphones Review
Using a-Jays Four series headphones, we wonder: How much do physical aesthetics matter? A: A lot. Suckers for design, we've bought more than one thing just because of how cool it looks, and for all of those reasons these a Jays Four headphones jumped out at us. They feature a relatively minimalist design at a price cheaper than the standard Apple in-ears (the ones with a remote and mic are just under a $100 at our local electronics retailer, while the a-Jays are $70). More intriguingly, the ...
Sol Republic Amps In-Ear Headphones Review
One of the strange side effects of moving over the Rockies has been a big change in my running habits. A bit of a wuss, I struggle to get out there in the ice & snow. Worse—my tried and true cans just slide off my toque, which has left me looking for the perfect pair of in-ear buds. I've tried a few, and we'll be posting some reviews over the next few weeks, but I wanted to start with these Amps HD buds from Sol Republic. I was initially attracted to them because of the price-point, ...
Memorex PartyCube CD Sound System Review
For Portable, Room Filling Sound—The Memorex PartyCube Mi7805p Delivers. Possible places where you might use this— outside when you're hosting a party/barbeque, while folding laundry, in your basement or attic, or anywhere else! This stereo is really light (but not too light) and is super portable. Because it is a cube with multidirectional speakers, you don't have to worry about not hearing your music if you move around or behind the device. This little stereo doesn't look half bad, does ...
Logitech Wireless Speaker Z515
You're probably familiar with some of Logitech's products, and have likely owned a mouse or keyboard made by them at some point (or currently). Did you know that Logitech also makes webcams, earphones, microphones, (and some other cool-looking products not yet available in Canada)? They have a good selection of electronic products in a range of price points, so I'm sure you'll be able to find something to give your tech-loving gift recipient from Logitech. I recommend Logitech Wireless Speaker ...
