During Sonos' third quarter financial call, the company said that it was planning a product launch in September. Based on a new FCC filing spotted by Lowpass, one of the products it's unveiling at the event could be a pair of headphones called the "Ace Ultra." While the filing is heavily redacted, the Ace Ultra seems to have an over-ear design, similar to the original Sonos Ace launched in 2024. But it will be available in five colors instead of just two, namely Greige (or light gray), Shadow Black, Agave, Blush and Sand. The FCC filing also hinted that the device will support Sonos Voice Control, the company's voice assistant.

Don't be fooled by the compact size of this soundbar. It's a solid option for smaller TVs or spaces without having to sacrifice sound quality. Acoustic music sounds loud and distinct. Some music sounds washed out and muddy. Living in a small space has some challenges, but poor cinematic sound doesn't need to be one of them.

The configuration process is outdated. Google Home did not recognize the projector on my network. Ultrashort-throw (UST) projectors offer more flexibility than traditional (long-throw) models. No one can ever step in front of one and block the projection, since the unit doesn't require distance and can sit up close to the screen rather than at the back of the room. This also lets all your streaming gear, a soundbar, and a game console connect close to the screen.

Gear Audio Speakers The new Bose Lifestyle Collection is whole-home audio that won't take up your whole room Featuring a soft-edged speaker, soundbar, and subwoofer, the new WiFi-connected series wants to sound big without looking imposing.

In a townhouse on New York's Upper West Side, Bose revealed its new Lifestyle speaker collection through a multi-story demo involving quite a few stairs and equally ascending audio. From a company so well-known for actively canceling noise, this was about generating buzz.

These compact Edifier speakers may not be the fanciest, but they'll blow your monitor's built-in speakers out of the water. Even the best gaming screens tend to have lackluster audio, if they include it at all, so we recommend either a pair of headphones or a great set of desktop speakers . Our favorite pick at $200, the Edifier M60, is currently marked down to just $170 on Amazon, a $30 break from the usual price. Edifier has a pedigree and a long history of making great, compact speakers. The M60 is no different.

Engadget's best of CES 2026: All the new tech that caught our eye in Las Vegas This year, over 4,000 exhibitors descended on Las Vegas, Nevada to showcase their wares at CES, and the Engadget team was out in full force . The week started with press conferences from the biggest companies at the show, which were often a flurry of AI buzzwords, vague promises and very little in the way of hard news. More than one company even decided to forgo announcing things during their conferences to make way for more AI chatter, only to publish press releases later quietly admitting that, yes, actually, they did make some consumer technology. It's appropriate, I guess, that as we're beginning to feel the knock-on cost effects of the AI industry's insatiable appetite for compute resources -- higher utility bills and device prices -- companies would rather use their flashy conferences to reinforce AI's supposedly must-have attributes rather than actually inform the public about their new products. We're by no means AI luddites at Engadget, but it's fair to say that our team is more excited by tangible products that enrich our lives than iterative improvements to large language models. So, away from all of the bombast of NVIDIA's marathon keynote and Lenovo's somehow simultaneously gaudy and dull Sphere show, it's been a pleasure to evaluate the crowd of weird new gadgets, appliances, toys and robots vying for our attention.

Tired of watching your favorite movies through the tinny built-in speakers on your TV? Cyber Monday is the perfect time to upgrade your TV room with a new soundbar, a simple addition that can revolutionize everything you watch. We found a variety of discounts on everything from budget-friendly standalone bars to expansive home theater systems with premium bars at the center. Our favorite soundbar for most people, the Yamaha SR-C30A, hits its lowest price in the last 30 days for Black Friday and Cyber Monday at just under $220 from Amazon . What it lacks in high-end features, it more than makes up for with its super simple and compact setup, and the sound quality is more than good enough for your weekly movie night. It even has a wireless subwoofer, so you get all the benefits of dedicated bass without having to run wires across your living room.
