For fans of Binaural Audio, there are a few possibilities. The famed Brüel & Kjær Type 4100-B Binaural in-Ear Microphone set, used by Chesky Records, which sell for roughly $15,000 dollars on eBay for a used set, if you can find them. There are also inexpensive binaural microphones built into earphones for around $100, but they tend to be passive systems, relying on an external pre-amp and recorder. Hooke Verse 3d Bluetooth Headphones with Built in Binaural 3D Audio Microphones for Spatial VR Audio Recording and Playback promise to bring an easy to use solution for recording audio at an affordable price. Does the Hooke Verse live up to its claims? Read our review to find out.

Technology isn’t always something you plug in. Sometimes it’s the result of high technology, sometimes, it’s a product that fills a need you didn't know you had. In looking at products this holiday season, we took a look at the Snuggle Pedic Adjustable Shredded Style Memory Foam Pillow. Its soft cushiony feel belies the technology that led to its widespread adoption. If you are looking for a superior pillow for a good night’s sleep, read our full-review.

Last year, at the Pepcom Digital Experience press event, a small booth showed off what seemed to be an entirely logical, “Why didn’t I think of that” device. The Switchmate is a small battery operated switch that sticks to your existing light switches with magnets to turn your existing lights into smart lights. The recent introduction of slimmer models, a powered socket, and web access might be just the technology you need. A smart home, without the hassle of most smart home products.

Our first introduction to IK Multimedia came in 1997 when we heard about a new program, GrooveMaker. Later with the introduction of the iPad, we started reviewing their Apps allowing musicians to model a wide-variety of amps, rack effects, editing software, and more. And in 2010, the iRig arrived, which was a guitar interface for iOS devices, followed by the iRig Mic. After that an avalanche of products followed from cables to speakers to keyboards. The new iRig Mic HD 2, and iRig Pre HD build upon that history, including their well-known affordable price point. Read our review for the full story. Read our full review to learn more!
