Ultimate Ears Wonderboom Bluetooth Speakers: the Ultimate Party Animals for your Ears!

AudioWritten by Martin Regtien on 02 September 2017.

One of the best wireless speakers around is the “Boom” series from Ultimate Ears, brought to us by Logitech.

We’ve reviewed the Megaboom earlier on this channel and this time around received a couple of its younger siblings: the Wonderboom. Sound like a South African name – in fact it’s also an airport near Pretoria...

So, my expectations were mixed as the Megaboom had a terrific sound but could the Wonderboom come even close?

Look at the thing: not bigger than a grapefruit!

AudioWritten by Martin Regtien on 20 August 2017.

Edifier is a brand that is probably not as well-known as it should be here in Australia.

Jabra TOUR – Bluetooth in-car Speakerphone Tested

AudioWritten by Martin Regtien on 11 August 2017.

If there is one thing that Jabra is well known for it is their range of speakerphones for hands-free calling. Most new cars these days have Bluetooth calling built-in but if you drive an older vehicle you would greatly benefit from the ability to legally make calls and received them while driving.

I have a 2010 Ford Territory which has Bluetooth 1.0 which allows me to make calls but not play music through Bluetooth but I much prefer to use the Jabra TOUR which will do both.

Here is a quick review.

Let me tell you about this awesome machine...

Drobo 5N2 Review: the Easiest 5 Bay NAS. But wait...there’s more!

StorageWritten by Martin Regtien on 24 July 2017.

We’ve followed the Drobo developments ever since they were launched about a decade ago but never actually laid hands on one, despite having reviewed dozens of NAS units in that time.

The Drobo seemed, well, too simple to use to be any good...
That prejudice of mine now sees that simplicity as its main selling point.

Let’s find out why.
