If you’re just not satisfied with all of the modern looking docks out there, perhaps you’d like something that feels a little more earthy.

Paul Frank Julius Dance Machine

Paul Frank is always more than happy to offer some kind of case for pretty much all of the iPods and iPhones out there. Which makes it no surprise that they’d create another accessory that makes sure to nestle your iPod close to Julius. This goofy looking monkey apparently has a love for any and all iPods, because he is compatible with absolutely all of them. Of course they don’t actually say if it’ll work with the iPhone though. The Julius Dance Machine is soon to hit the Paul Frank stores, to be more specific, they’re looking at sometime in July. The details on this are just a little skimpy, but to give you somewhat of an idea, the iPod will sit in his lap. It’ll last for 6 hours from a single charge and features a 3.5mm stereo mini plug. There is also no word on how much the little speaker will actually cost. Source: GeekyGadgets Tech Cult – We cover the latest tech news, but always with a funny twist.

Music For Deaf People Collar

admin — Sun, 30 May 2010 19:24:47 +0000

The first time I learned Beethoven had a bit of a hearing problem, I was baffled as to how he managed to go on with his music career. It’s been said that he listened through vibrations in the floor to discover different things like to find out if the audience really liked his work. Using vibrations to “hear” isn’t an entirely uncommon concept for anyone who is deaf, which does still make this concept a little odd. Then again, it’s not exactly far fetched either. This collar is meant to give music to the deaf by using those vibrations to trigger the right area of the brain, allowing them to listen. This collar was done by a German designer who wanted the deaf to be able to at least feel the music. It converts auditory input into vibrations that trigger the same sound-processing area of the brain as someone with functioning hearing. Whether or not it will really catch on is debatable, but it’s an interesting concept at the very least.

Either way the two small speakers let you choose the best way to listen in. If you’re worried about it getting thumped by the lawn mower out in your yard, there’s also a shock absorbing gasket to help with those situations. There’s also the Atrium Sub10, which is a 200watt subwoofer with a 10 inch “Long Throw” Driver. It’s completely weatherproof, can be painted the color of your choosing and can be used as a stand to hold anything under 200lbs. The whole set can be picked up for about $500 through Amazon

iDeck iPod Car Cassette Adapter

admin — Mon, 24 May 2010 21:00:06 +0000

I remember jamming an adapter into my tape deck years ago to make it possible to play CDs in my beat up first car. Of course I had the really bad portable CD player, the one that whenever you hit a bump it made the song skip. Now if you own a car that doesn’t have a CD player, you can still use that old tape deck for good. Just plug in the iDeck and instead of tapes you’ll be listening to your iPod as you go down the road. Luckily unlike the very old portable CD players you won’t have to worry about your driving causing the music to skip. I’d say that this isn’t likely to get picked up by a whole lot of iPod users, since surely they’d have a better stereo in their car that wouldn’t require this. However, my 1999 vehicle has only a tape deck, the thing doesn’t even have a CD player, so I understand the need. If you want to pick up one it’ll cost you $39.99 through Amazon

The Flow Interactive Music System

admin — Sun, 23 May 2010 21:00:55 +0000

The Flow Interactive Music System is officially my new favorite concept design. It’s not because it has the best looks out there, although it does look pretty cool. It’s actually because it’s made to help you keep your music to match your mood. When you’re ready to party no one wants to hear a slow song, so this speaker system using your own movements will set it on party mode. That’s not the only mood it has available though. To change the mood is has accelerometers and gesture control sensors. It has 3 different types of shakes to go along with the moods. When you want to relax, just gently move it up and down. For work tunes you shake it a little harder and then to party you give it a very vigorous shake. The spheres themselves are what need the shaking. Then to control the volume just turn the speaker upside down. Source: GeekyGadgets Tech Cult – We cover the latest tech news, but always with a funny twist

The Aviator Headphones

Skullcandy is usually a line that sticks with the rocker and punk types of gadgets. That’s by no means a bad thing, but these Aviator Headphones are more likely to appeal to a broader crowd. Their current audience will still like these, but it might pull in a few new fans to the Skullcandy line. Although these aren’t technically done solely by Skullcandy, actually they teamed up with Roc Nation to get these new sets. Despite appearing slightly bulky, these are a bit more portable than they appear. They fold up to make them a bit smaller and easier to carry around. The headphones themselves feature a 20-20kHz frequency response, 65Ohms impedance, 40mW of input power, 100mW of output and a 3.5mm gold plated plug. The headphones aren’t out just yet, they’ll be showing up sometime in June.

We all know of the days when owning a pet rock was actually cool. Not so shockingly it was in the 70’s when weed was also popular. That’s not what I’d call a coincidence. Well for those of you that miss your pet rock, but you’re now a respectable adult you should pick yourself up an iRock. You can talk to it just like your old rock, but it actually has a function. Just pop your iPod or iPhone into the dock and it can be charged or synced up to your computer with the included USB cable. The dock is made out of a rock with Eastern Red Cedar Wood in the middle. These are created by an individual and sold through Etsy. Which means that these will come out in very limited quantities. You can pick up yours for $70 , which is a bit steep for a rock. At least it’s an electronic rock though.

If you’re on the lookout for earphones with a little bit of an edge, the line of Wicked Little Buds should do the trick. Not one of these has a soft sweet exterior. Some just have a nice metallic look, while others have skulls and other darks designs. I will warn you that the website for these is extremely tedious to try to navigate through, but it’s worth checking out. These are not high quality buds, so if you’re looking for the top of the line in audio you should look elsewhere. However, if you just want a pair of buds that are practically disposable, while still looking good these would work great. A few of the Wicked Empire Buds feature an Ace card, skulls and even an 8 ball. The prices range from around $10 on up to $40.

Nothing screams class quite like plastic painted to look like wood. It just instantly makes everything look nicer. Sure, they could have used real wood, but that would make the speakers cost more.

Cardboard Record Player

I don’t know anyone anymore that actually owns a record player. I still find them interesting, but I can’t say that I’ve found much of a need to rush out and get one. Well for those of you that would like to have something small and easily hidden around, this record player is one way to do it. What was formerly nothing more than a sleeve for a record gets reshaped and reused as a record player. Sure, it’s nothing top of the line and it will probably need a little help from you, but it would still work. In order to get it up and running, just assemble all of the corrugated cardboard into the proper formation. Then just put a pencil in the center of the record on the player. The vibrations will then go through the needle and become amplified by the cardboard. It was just something that was sent out to creative directors across North America in order to demonstrate GGRP’s sound engineering capabilities.

USB Multi-Functional Mini Speaker

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:35:38 +0000

This is the strangest looking gadget I’ve seen with the most normal sounding name. That name itself barely even pulls you in, it’s the incredibly strange look that does the trick. It looks about like something that would have been featured in the movie Gremlins. It also makes me worry that they’ll release yet another sequel only with a pink gremlin to give Gizmo some company. Even if there is no sequel or remake, this bright pink speaker will work great for any audio needs you might have. It can hook up to a total of 3 different USB devices at one time. It will also work just fine with a microphone. The great thing with this speaker is that it has a small clip that will let it hook onto your monitor or laptop. The speaker does only come in pink, so if you’re not a fan of the color you’re a bit out of luck. You can purchase it for $22 through USB Brando .

Starburst Recycled Boombox

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 17:38:47 +0000

For those of you that are eco-conscious with a serious sweet tooth, then this is the set of speakers for you. It’s a boombox made out of an old Starburst box, giving you a constant reminder of your candy cravings. I suppose that might be considered a good thing for those trying to curb their cravings, but if you don’t mind them then you’ll be just fine. In addition to being eco-friendly, it gives you a convenient spot to place your MP3 player. Although it looks a little like it has a dock, it’s just a small cut-out area to hold your MP3 player. It’s the perfect size for an iPod Touch or iPhone. In order to play your music, you just plug it into your MP3 player like you would a pair of headphones. Then it will play the music through the two speakers built-into the old candy box. You can purchase it for $18 through Urban Outfitters . You can choose between the Starburst box or a Skittles one.
