Is it a boomerang? A “neck massager”? Some nightmarish, hypertrophied cybersausage? Nay, no, and nope. It’s the Saitek A250
wireless speaker system, and it pulls mysterious signals through the
ether to bring glorious music from your computer to the remotest
reaches of your home (or up to 30 meters from the PC, whichever is
nearer).
Tote it with you around the manor, from the study
to the billiard room to the conservatory, like Professor Plum’s lead
pipe. The onboard LCD display and volume,
play, skip, back, pause, and stop controls let you punch up just the
right tune for the occasion. Do the laundry to “Dirty Laundry”! Listen
to “Bitchin’ Camaro” while you work on your bitchin’ Camaro! Have a
milkshake with “My Milkshake”! The possibilities are approximately
limitless.
“But surely,” you scoff, “such a mobile
electro-music megaphonator certainly suffers a grievous loss of
fidelity and presence!” Our reply: where’d you learn English, Bleak
House? As to the speakers, you’re dead wrong, Chuzzlewit: thanks to
true digital quality 2.1 stereo with active bass, neodymium tweeters,
and a dedicated subwoofer, the Saitek A250 sounds as clear and heavy as a crystal sledgehammer.
If
the wireless thing doesn’t move you, jack your mp3 player directly into
it for a mainline rush of sweet, pure, irresistible sound. After one
listen to the Saitek A250, you’ll be forced to agree: its milkshake is indeed better than yours.
