Need More Sound Out Of Your Mac – For A Cheap Price?

ByMike Moffit

I have run into the issue time and time again that the volume on my MacBook just isn’t cutting it. I purchased a nice pair of Audio Engines awhile back, but I don’t like having to move them between my TV and my computer, but I don’t want to spend a lot of money on a second set of speakers.

Normally the things I do on my MacBook don’t require a crazy concert hall sound, but I need a little something-something to jam out to. Logitech makes a great speaker set called the R-20. It consists of two speakers, and a small subwoofer that’s about the size of a can of coffee, priced just right at $27.99.

So if you are rocking a laptop, the subwoofer can easily travel with you, and if you have a desktop, the subwoofer and be placed under your desk and hidden away! There is also a 3.5mm jack if you need to use a headset. Simple, yet powerful!

See how excited Davin and I are about these sweet new speakers?!

  • Need to Charge Multiple iPhones or iPods?

    This day in age a vast majority of us have iPods–and now many of you have iPhones. As much as we love our gadgets, it can sometimes be a pain to charge one at a time, so which one do you pick?

    Leave it to Griffin Technology to solve that issue–one that I am surprised was not figured out sooner! The “PowerDock 2 Charging Cradle for iPod and iPhone”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/73013 will let you charge two iPhones, two iPods or an iPod and an iPhone at once! It can sit on your desk, beside, by the front door, wherever you will remember to charge it. This gadget won’t hook up to your Mac–it has no ports other than the AC on the back–but I like the fact that you don’t have to have everything plugged into your Mac at all times.

    I also like the “Griffin PowerDock 2”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/73013 because the thought of having my iPod or iPhone in the dock is more calming to me than just leaving my Apple gadget on the desk (in case it fell off–iPhone screen replacements are expensive!). A $39.99 price point seems fair to charge your devices to me! Most single iPod/iPhone chargers are about $19.99-$29.99 and this way you don’t have to worry about buying a sync cable as well. It’s also made out of brushed aluminum, which matches the MacBook Pros and iMacs very nicely (which is obviously super important!).
