Onkyo D-TK10s by Ami Kealoha

Onkyodtk10
Based on the way acoustic vibrations resonate through the body of an instrument to create rich sound, Onkyo recently released these specially engineered D-TK10 speakers that take advantage of the entire speaker cabinet—rather than the traditional use of only the woofers and tweeters. Produced in partnership with renowned Japanese guitar maker Takamine, the gorgeously handmade rosewood-and-mahogany set measures under nine inches tall, making them shelf-friendly, as well as good for small spaces in general. Over two years in the making, like most of Onkyo's superior equipment, quality and innovation doesn't come cheap ($2,000), nor in this case easily; they only make 50 per month and purchases are limited to one per household. They're available directly from Onkyo.

Just press the chord buttons, strum the touch plate and you're playing dynamic chord progressions. Beginners can immediately start playing in tune,...
Four Pairs of Wireless Headphones
I lack the coordination needed to operate a keyboard and mouse while tethered to my computer by the wire on my headphones. To protect my laptop from being thrown across the room by a careless jerk of my head, I invested in a pair of wireless headphones, the Sony IF140s (pictured right), about 10 years ago. They had an infrared transmitter that plugged into...
