Cool Hunting
The Beatles stereo box set, an expertly remastered collection of every Beatles song ever made, has audiophiles and Beatles fans equally excited.
A massive undertaking, the sixteen-disc collection includes extremely cleaned-up editions, leading All Things Considered host Bob Boilen to say "it's like watching your favorite movie in HD for the first time."
While EMI also released a mono version, the crystal-clear stereo tracks offer the listener audio quality not heard before, adding new dimensions and subtle sound effects for a more natural and well-balanced tone.
The dynamic stereo box set sells from Amazon, but CH is giving away a set, along with the Vox amp pictured above, to one lucky reader. To enter simply tweet @coolhunting with your favorite Beatles song and we'll pick from entries received before 11:59 pm EST on 7 October 2009.

Since its recent release, we've had the new TV on The Radio album Dear Science on repeat at CH Headquarters. You'd think that between putting out the new album and flexing his thespian muscles in Rachel Getting Married, TV's own Tunde Adebimpe would have little time for anything else. But luckily this isn't the case, as Tunde found the time and inspiration to design...
The Melvins have been around forever. I mean, Kurt Cobain tried out to be their bassist and supposedly got so nervous he forgot all the songs. Heavily influenced (no pun intended) by Black Flag and Black Sabbath, the Melvins’ experimentally-tinged amalgam of early hardcore and stoner sludge has in turn inspired some of the most successful and revered bands on the heavier end of...
