SoundPEATS Air3 Deluxe Earbuds review: Big sound for a small price

Customizable sound is not something I would expect from a pair of affordable earbuds, but the Deluxe Air3 buds come with a surprising array of features. Because of a range of in-app controls, you can tailor them to your own musical preferences, including adaptive EQ technology. Combine that with gaming mode, a loud, punchy sound profile, and a small, sleek charging case, and you've got an excellent earbud to go along with your best iPhone.

Bowers & Wilkins’ PX8 wireless headphones promise $700 worth of premium sound

On paper, there’s little to separate Bowers & Wilkins’ new PX8 headphones from the PX7 S2 model released earlier this year. Battery life is still rated at 30 hours, they still contain six microphones (four for active noise cancellation plus two for calls), and there’s still no dedicated 3.5mm jack.And yet, the new PX8 costs $699, a whole $300 more than their midrange counterpart. What gives?Well, B&W argues that “what gives” is its new flagship headphones’ sound quality, thanks to a pair of new 40mm Carbon Cone…

Paramore returns, with a new sound and a healthy outlook

Twenty years ago, if you told Paramore vocalist Hayley Williams that she’d become one of the most influential pop singers in America, she might have offered little more than a scowl. As a DayGlo-haired punk sprite, miraculously gifted with the lung capacity of a Southern church choir, she couldn’t have seen it then — nor could her childhood friends-turned-bandmates, Zac Farro and Taylor York — but Paramore would go on to craft songs that would alter the trajectories of rock and pop. Artists such as Olivia Rodrigo, Demi…

When Florida security guard George Zimmerman was acquitted over his shooting of unarmed Black teenager Trayvon Martin in 2013, 18-year-old Jake Blount turned to the past to cope with his despair. “I wanted to know how music has historically allowed Black people to feel human in the face of racism,” he says. “My ancestors would have sung spirituals and work songs when they were enslaved – this music is all that remains of how they survived.”Initially, Blount found their message jarring. “It felt like they were saying:…

Battery-free MIT underwater camera is powered by sound
