admin — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 16:53:32 +0000

Sometimes people around you don’t want to hear your music. Other times though, having a way to share with the crowd can make you a rock star. For those times, the Mini-Bullets Wireless Speakers can come in handy.

To start, the fact they are waterproof means you don’t have to worry about the waves at the beach or a splashes at the pool. You can even dance in the rain without the speakers fizzling out.

Other features include -

Go Anywhere – indoors or out – with no wires attached
Use with your Stereo system, MP3 player, CD player, Computer or Television
Splash-resistant weatherproof speakers can be left out in the rain or used by the pool
Speakers can be powered with batteries for the ultimate portability or included power adaptors
Small lightweight speakers can go anywhere
Works up to 150 ft. away

We like these little power houses. The sound was good for the size of speaker. It’s not going to blow you away with the bass response but no speaker this size will. Battery life was adequate and they worked seamlessly with our mp3 equipped phone.

3.5mm Jack Earbud Splitter ISPLITTER

frontoffice — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 16:43:13 +0000

Are you stuck with 1 MP3 audio player, but have 2 people who want to listen? Here is your solution.

The earbud splitter is made so that you plug one end into your 3.5mm headphone jack on your MP3 player or iPod device and then it splits off to allow two 3.5mm headphones to plug into the other ends.

This allows 2 people to be able to listen to the tunes streaming from a music device at the same time.

The contacts are plated with 24k gold to be able to resist corrosion and maximize the strength of the signal.

Plantronics M40s Stereo Earbud

Talk handsfree and listen to MP3s in high quality stereo with the Plantonics M40s stereo earbuds.

While these are not the quality of a good set of Shure earbuds, they also cost considerably less. As a result they provide a great value for the price.

The headset provides decent sound and is comfortable. A 2.5mm and 3.5mm adapter are both included for use with a phone or a MP3 player.

Features include-

Multi use convenience for your mobile phone with integral music player, or your mobile phone and separate music player

Discreet design which easily fits in your pocket

In the ear style for a quick and comfortable fit

Clear conversations with a discreet omni-directional microphone

Simple one touch control to answer and end calls

The dangling mic works OK but don’t expect a lot of noise cancellation. In fact, we haven’t found a dangling mic yet we really liked so Plantronics is no worse than the others.

Overall, this is a great value for both music listening and hands free conversations at around $20.
