Bose On-Ear: More noise-canceling goodness
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 09, 2006
The good folks at Engadget just reported on Bose's new headphones. Right after the announcement of the Bose QuietComfort 3, Bose is pushing back the shore of noise with the new Bose On-Ear headphones. We do not have specific details yet, but we just shoot Bose an email and will update pretty soon. Watch this space.

Creative Xmod: Free your music
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 04, 2006
Singapore-based Creative seems intent on up-sampling the average music listening experience. Branded under the X-Fi Xtreme Fidelity platform, the new Xmod is a small hardware module which sits in between an audio player (PC, notebook, MP3 player) and an audio listening device (headphones, speakers).
Creative touts the Xmod to be capable of up-converting compressed digital music to a level beyond that of even CD quality. Within the device are two essential features; the X-Fi Crystalizer (audio up-convertor) and the X-Fi CMSS 3D (virtual surround sound).
The X-Fi Crystalizer works essentially by indulging in a bit of compression reverse engineering. It selects and restores audio streams in a digital track that has been marred by compression artifacts, allowing previously lost details like cymbal crashes to be heard again. Sounds yummy, and we can't wait to audition it once it is made available in late October. S$139 (US$102.21) a piece.

iriver S10: Now that's one sweet thing
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 03, 2006
The S10 is so small, it's perfect for a magic trick. Now you see it, now you don't. You can't begin to imagine the number of wows we got from people we showed it to. In fact, we can't wait to meet the next person to swagger across our path with an iPod shuffle. It sure would be nice to wipe the smug off his face with this tiny MP3 player.

Sony NW-S706: Can it be real?
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 02, 2006
Sony begins the month of October with a new MP3 player. Well, that's as much as we can gather. Posted by the good folks at dapreview, Sony has apparently obliged the anti-monochrome crowd with a color screen. Other than the China-only CE-P, this is definitely the first flash-based Sony MP3 player that sports one. The oblong-shaped player will have the same knob-twisting playback control as the NW-A600 series, FM radio, line-in recording and a rated 50 hours playback time.
We just shot Sony Asia an email and will update once we have further details.
