myCharge
Year after year of buying holiday presents can run you out of ideas, especially if your friends and family members seem to have everything! There is one item that everyone can use day in and day out to help them stay connected and that’s a portable charger, but don’t just settle for a cheap and unsafe one you can buy at a gas station or drug store.
myCharge makes a variety of quality chargers that feature Safe Cell™ Technology, which delivers 12 layers of battery and device protections and Hyper-Charge™, which charges smartphones up to 30% faster than the supplied charger the phone comes with. The HubXtra is one of myCharge’s popular chargers. It features a built-in Apple Lightning and Micro-USB cable and has prongs on the back of the unit to directly charge it from a wall outlet, meaning that is one less thing the people on your gift list are required to remember to bring along!
Audio-Technica
Audio-Technica Turntables, Wireless Headphones and Gaming Headsets Are Holiday Gifts That Everyone Can Enjoy
This holiday season Audio-Technica makes it easy to pick the perfect gift for everyone from vinyl record aficionados to headphone enthusiasts, serious gamers or anyone into great sound. The AT-LP120-USB high-performance turntable delivers superb sound from vinyl records, while the ATH-DSR7BT wireless headphones with new Pure Digital Drive technology achieve a higher level of Bluetooth sound quality than ever before. Audio-Technica’s Sonic Fuel ATH-S700BT wireless headphones combine outstanding audio quality and value. For gaming buffs, the ATH-AG1X and ATH-ADG1X gaming headsets create a thrilling, immersive sonic virtual reality.
If there’s a record-playing enthusiast on your holiday gift list, Audio-Technica’s AT-LP120-USB turntable is the perfect gift – it brings professional-quality sound and performance to consumers in an easy-to-use package. The AT-LP120-USB (SRP: US$299) features a USB output that enables transfer of favorite records to digital files, and plays 33, 45 and even 78 rpm records. A built-in phono preamp enables the turntable to connect to a receiver, powered speakers or other audio component.
This holiday season, music lovers and audiophiles will appreciate the remarkable sound quality of the ATH-DSR7BT headphones, which employs Audio-Technica’s groundbreaking Pure Digital Drive system. This system keeps the audio signal completely digital from source to driver to offer an extraordinary, never before-available level of wireless headphone sound quality.
Typically, in headphones using Bluetooth wireless technology, the digital signal goes through a series of steps that process the wireless signal – and can also degrade the sound. The ATH-DSR7BT’s Pure Digital Drive system utilizes a proprietary chipset instead of a traditional D/A converter and amplifier and keeps the audio signal entirely in the digital domain from the source right through to the driver. The sonic result is remarkably clear and accurate audio reproduction. The ATH-DSR7BT (SRP: US$299.00) supports up to 24-bit/48kHz signals in Bluetooth mode (including aptX and other formats) and delivers Hi-Res Audio playback at up to 24-bit/96kHz when connected to a digital source with the included USB cable.
Audio-Technica makes high-quality wireless headphone listening affordable for the holidays and year round with its SonicFuel ATH-S700BT over-ear headphones. The ATH-S700BT (SRP: US$129.00) combines outstanding audio quality with Bluetooth convenience, making it the perfect companion to a smartphone, tablet, laptop or portable music player. The ATH-S700BT’s built-in amplifier provides clear, full-bodied sound, and a multi-function button on the earcup lets users answer calls and control music. The ATH-S700BT employs 40 mm drivers for impactful sound and its memory foam earpads offer long-wearing comfort. The ATH-S700BT is supplied with a 3.3-foot (1.0 m) USB charging cable and a 3.9-foot (1.2 m) cable that allows the wearer to continue to listen to audio should the battery wear down after listening.
Games are always popular holiday gifts – and the gaming experience just isn’t complete without great sound. Audio-Technica’s premium ATH-AG1X closed-back and ATH-ADG1X open-back headphones deliver an immersive sonic environment that draws gamers completely into the playing field. The headsets feature 53 mm large-diameter drivers, a 3D Wing Support System for even greater comfort and much more. Both models utilize core elements of the company’s audiophile models to provide exceptional dynamics with impactful bass, and precise localization of dialog, sound effects and music on a vast sound space. Both headphones (SRP: US$299.00 for either model) include a built-in microphone along with additional features that make them compatible with popular gaming platforms and computers.
