Behringer iNuke Boom – Biggest and Baddest iPod Dock

“Nanos gigantium humeris insidentes” – that’s the best and geekiest way you can describe the iPod Touch when it is docked on the new Behringer iNuke Boom speakers. Yes, the sight of the iPod Touch docked at this new mega speaker system is literally comparable to a dwarf standing on the shoulders of giants. The iNuke Boom is currently the world’s loudest and potentially the largest commercial iPhone and iPod dock. Its looming yet elegant presence is further emphasized by its 700 pounds, 8 feet wide, and 4 feet tall exterior, and if the look and size doesn’t impress you, its 10,000 watts pure eardrum popping power will. Undermining the company’s mantra of “Double the Features at Half the Price”, the designers of this mega dock probably placed audio firepower imaginable to man, placed it in a biggest hull they can find, and tagged it a whooping $30,000.00. This monstrous iPod dock, by all means, is for no faint of heart.

The iNuke Boom will make its grand debut at the upcoming CES 2012 expo and it is sure to serve as the company’s battlecruiser as it leads 50 more new consumer electronic sub-brands from Eurosound – a Behringer subsidiary brand. Given its size and booming sound, you won’t have a hard time finding the Behringer iNuke Boom iPod and iPhone dock at CES Central Hall, Booth 15348.

Listen Comfortably to your Favorite Tracks While on Bed with Bedphones

One of the relaxing ways to fall asleep (aside from that good massage) is to pamper yourself with soothing tracks and other favorite music. Headphones usually are not giving much comfort especially when you use one for longer hours. Good thing Bedphones heard what you need. This pair of earphones is designed for sleep. This is made possible by the structure and components used to give you nothing but a sound sleep while listening to your soothing songs.

The Bedphones use less than 1/4-inch thick foam that lets you barely feel the speakers covered with foam. The thin foam design securely lies flat against your ears to eliminate the amount of pressure on the ears. The earphone cable and memory wire are made from PVC while the speaker cover is crafted from ABS enclosed with a rubberized coating. To use the Bedphones, simply bend the memory wire smoothly according to the contour of your ear. You can re-adjust until you get the most comfortable fit. Be careful not to bend too much nor create sharp turns. Hook the wire at the back of your ear then place the foam side of the speaker assembly directly over the ear canal for optimum comfort and sound quality.

In terms of compatibility, the Bedphones can be used on almost any devices that use a standard 3.5mm headphone jack including iPod, iPhones, Droids and other mobile phones and MP3 players. Bedphones are not designed though with noise-cancelling and Bluetooth technology since they are intended to be as thin as possible for use in bed. What’s more, Bedphones are also comfortable to use during travels and exercise.

Bedphones are surely perfect to use when listening to your playlist before you sleep. If ever you want to see other pillow speakers, you may visit this link.
