22 Popular Desktop Audio Products
By Bob Archer
Here are 22 of the more popular products being used for desktop audio.
Unless your name is Robinson Crusoe and you've been living on a remote island, you know how popular the iPod is.
With consumers buying more iPods, people from all walks of life are now using their iTunes software for more than just file management for their iPods.
There's a growing amount of consumers who are also using their iTunes-equipped computers as a source device to feed their larger audio systems or as independent sources in secondary rooms.
Apple Airport Express
Apple's AirPort Express may not offer a lot of margin, but it can be used as a product-solving solution.
AirPort Express uses 802.11n wireless to double the previous model's range and improve its performance. The unit weighs less than 7 ounces and can be used with a single high-speed Internet connection to support up to 10 users.
PS Audio PerfectWave DAC
The PerfectWave DAC is a versatile product that provides D-to-A capabilities, as well as the ability to be set up as a music server with the addition of internal network bridge.
The unit can be controlled with an iPhone or iPod Touch. Installers can remotely monitor the unit's performance with PS Audio's Global Net Service.
Adam Professional Audio A5 Monitor
Someone doesn't have to be a fan of The Beatles to appreciate that when George Martin chose Adam Audio speakers when he re-engineered 26 songs for the surround mix of The Beatles' Love album.
Consumers can now choose Adam's products, including its compact A5 for their music listening. The A5 incorporates the company's Art Tweeter along with a 5.5-inch woofer and an amplifier section rated at 2 x 25 watts-per-channel.
