There was an era where everything was seemingly about bass. Is that era over? Every time I write about Beats headphones, there’s a question that arises. Do I even need to quote the line from the review that inevitably mentions that they aren’t as bass-heavy as the brand’s originals were? Are bass heads in trouble?
The answer turns out to be no, all thanks to the Sony ULT series, and right now you can save big on their extremely versatile outdoor speaker. The Sony ULT Field 1 is usually $128, but you can get it now for just $89, a savings of $39. Please note that the store page says price hidden, but the deal is still there when you add the speaker to your cart. Tap the button below to see the deal yourself or keep reading for our take on the Sony ULT Field 1 and see what features make Sony’s speakers designed for bass heads unique.
The first thing about the Sony ULT Field 1 that you’ll probably want to know is that it’s IP67 weather-resistant, which means that it’s extremely resistant to dust and it will make a wonderful waterproof speaker for your outdoor summer fun. And with a 12 hour battery life to boot, you know that it’ll keep going long after the party is winding down. Next, there’s that bass. The “ULT” button gives a bass-boost that you’ll actually notice. Finally, there’s the dual-orientation of the speaker. The speaker has been optimized for both horizontal and vertical orientations. Though we still find the fullest overall sound field to be present when you use the Sony ULT Field 1 in horizontal mode, placing one vertically on an end table in a crowded environment can really liven the place up.
We’re not really sure how long this deal will last, but bass heads who need a new outdoor speaker really ought to check out the Sony ULT Field 1 at $89. It’s a savings of $39 off of the usual $128 and a great way to save for the summer. Remember that this deal is for the price hidden versions of the speaker because, for whatever reason, Amazon doesn’t want you to know about this deal.

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.
The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
