PS Audio

Audiophile Masters, Volume III is perhaps their most diverse compilation to date. With sounds ranging from electric guitar to hand-pans, genres spanning bluegrass to avant-garde, and sonic impacts reaching from intimate to hard-driving, each of the ten cuts gave me goosebumps.

OneClock Kickstarter

OneClock

As some of you know, for the last few years, we've been working with our friends Jamie Kripke and Howie Rubin to develop a new way to wake up called OneClock - a minimalist analog timepiece designed for an intentionally disconnected bedroom. It features waking music based in science and composed by Jon Natchez from The War on Drugs and is as much a piece of art as it is a functional household tool. OneClock has already been featured in New York Magazine, which is super exciting. But it’s also a little unnerving, considering we haven’t even started manufacturing yet. So we're writing to ask you to help make this thing happen. We will be launching for real on Kickstarter this coming Tuesday, 2/2. Groundhog Day. Crowdfunding is all about building momentum and we’d love your support…early. The most successful campaigns raise $500K+ and our aim is to be amongst the top performers, kicking off a movement towards a more thoughtful, intentional way to wake up tech free. We already have a list of 23,000 subscribers interested in "waking up better". We would love for you to help us meet our goal. Please consider signing up at oneclock.co today to be notified when we are ‘live’ so you can pre-order OneClock. We’d be honored if you could show your support by pre-ordering within the first two hours of our launch from 6a—8a EST (Yes, we’re aware that is crazy early no matter where you live). The best discounts are reserved for the earliest backers and with your early support, anyone who visits our campaign will immediately see it's on its way to success. No one likes to eat in an empty restaurant and the same holds true for crowdfunding campaigns. Your support and encouragement means everything and we're looking forward to experiencing this journey with you. Keep believing in better over more and that good design really does matter.

UVClean Wand

iClick

iClick announces its latest brandable tech, the UVClean Wand. It's a portable UV-C light that can be used to sterilize small devices, door handles, cutlery, etc when you're out-and-about in public. Like sunlight in your pocket, the built-in ultraviolet light uses short-wavelength (UV-C) light to kill or inactivate microorganisms, so you can sterilize on-the-go. The UVClean Wand features a 400mAh battery and can be recharged using the included micro USB cable.

PerfectWave SACD Transport

PS Audio

38 years after the introduction of the CD, PS engineers have continued their quest for perfection in the art of data extraction and delivery so you can finally hear what’s been locked away in your CD and SACD collection. The PerfectWave SACD Transport (PST) is their most advanced optical disc transport. As with the PST’s predecessors, the PWT and DMP, PST is based upon an advanced Digital Lens which electrically isolates the mechanical transport/laser mechanism of the optical disc reader, removes jitter and timing artifacts, and focuses audio data into a single, bit-perfect, timing-perfected stream to your DAC.
