Sooo, because I was away for so long... I'm trying to make up for lost time and will be posting four articles today, before I return to the once a week routine I usually follow. So let's start this one on how can someone further enhance the abilities of an Apple. Well this week I found the answer to that age old mystery, and it’s
called XtremeMac. XtremeMac make products that will protect,
power and enhance Apple devices. This week we were able to get our hands on
two products that are made by XtremeMac
. They were the Tango TRX and the Soma Stand are both good devices in
their own light, but I’ll let you be the judge of that…
Tango TRX
The Tango TRX is
a dock and speaker system for almost all your Apple devices whether it be old or new, but it also has an
auxiliary stereo mini jack input and Bluetooth audio streaming capability
built-in to give other devices the option to function with it as well. Now to point out the good, bad and ugly side
of this device.
The Good (Outstanding
qualities that had to be mentioned)
The Bad (Points that were a bit disappointing and had to be mentioned)
- The sound quality that this little thing pumps out is astonishing. It was able to produce a very deep round bass and very sharp treble.
- The ability to customize the amount of bass or treble you hear through the speakers is a nice touch.
- Also, the two free apps that is offered to iPhone and iPod Touch owners is great for showing of the Bluetooth audio streaming capabilities.
- Very sturdy and attractive build quality.
The Bad (Points that were a bit disappointing and had to be mentioned)
- The sound quality wasn’t as impress through the Bluetooth, but it was far from horrible.
- The docking station was not compatible with any of the Apple iPad versions.
The Ugly (Horrible
points that may irritate the consumer and had to be mentioned)
- The cloth that covers the speakers are dust magnets and may be a hassle to clean.
Final Thoughts
The Tango Trx is
a small audio system that packs a heavy punch. This device is powerful enough
to satisfy all your music needs whether it be the bedroom or the living room.
The Tango Trx retails for about
16,000.00(JMD).
Soma Stand
The Soma Stand is a bed side/potable audio docking station for you Apple device that has a very unique designed. It’s able of folding
flat for storage or open into a rounded pyramid shape with a pop-out front dock
and rear-mounted controls. Now to point out the good, bad and ugly side of this
device.
The Good (Outstanding
qualities that had to be mentioned)
- The sound quality was excellent for the size of this device.
- The free app that is offered to iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad owners helps to turn your device into a very expensive bedside alarm clock.
- Exceptionally rugged and eye-catching build quality.
- It is potable and can be used on the go.
The Bad (Points that
were a bit disappointing and had to be mentioned)
- The docking station was a little weak but it held itself together.
The Ugly (Horrible
points that may irritate the consumer and had to be mentioned)
- This thing uses four… (4) AA Batteries . If that’s not something to point out then I don’t know what is.
Final Thoughts
Overall, the Soma
Stand is a truly unique petite speaker system, and it also delivers
excellent sound. It’s small enough to fit on a desk or a nightstand without
taking up a great deal of space. The Soma
Stand retails for about 9,000.00
(JMD). The products mentioned in this article were provided courtesy of Royale Computers and Accessories
