Monitor Audio AirStream 10

1. Monitor Audio Airstream 10: There’s one reason the Nintendo Gameboy sold & squillion units back in the nineties – Tetris. Beautifully simple but hideously addictive, the process of building walls from geometric blocks turned out to be way more than the sum of its angular parts. You could say the same about speaker supremo Monitor Audio’s first foray onto the airwaves. Inside the Tetris-inspired slab lies the holy trinity of radio:DAB, Wi-Fi and FM. There’s also an Ethernet port for those who prefer their web radio piped rather than airborne, and it’ll stream tunes from your Mac or PC too. We’re loving the touch-sensitive controls, but it’s the retro woodgrain-and-metal finish on this eye-catching, ear-tickling wireless that really sets the Airstream 10 apart.

Sony-HDR-TG7VE

2. Sony HDR-TG7VE: The big status was a clue, as were the yellow taxis. But still, you simply couldn’t remember where you filmed that man with the American  accent shouting at a pigeon that’d swiped his bagel. Fortunately, your  Sony TG7VE, the world’s smallest Full HD camcorder with GPS, had geotagged the location. You’d filled its 16 GB memory with 1080p video and 4MP snaps of New York City, schmuck! Thanks, technology.

3. Kaleidescape Mini: “Woe is me,” you lamented as you surveyed your DVD collection: discs in the wrong boxes, scratched to hell or just missing. “If only there was a media server that could store all this, with enough space for 75 discs or 825 CDs and room for future expansion. One that could output 1080p and was multi-room capable, so I could watch movies in my lounge and pipe music to two other rooms in my house. If only someone would invent it and make it look nice too,” you wailed. Lucky for you, there is, and Kaleidescape has. So Shut up.

4. Chord Electronics Indigo: This needs to b made clear from the start: the Chord Electronics Indigo is not iPod clock. It’s a “universal control center” catering for every music source: digital or analogue, wired or wireless. There’s of fifth-generation Pulse Array DAC tucked away inside the Indigo, as well as the ability stream audio from any A2DP-enabled device. Chord has even moded an iPod Classic, included with the Indigo, to turn Apple’s mighty mobile jukebox into a stunning high-end music source. Unbelievably clear, with looks to match.

5. Asus LamborghiniVX5: When a Lamborghini badge adorns the case of a laptop, it’s a fair bet that what’s under bonnet ain’t gonna be a ticklish little pussycat. So behold the VX5. Asus has hauled its previous Lambo collabo into the garage and want only tinkered with the innards to create a seriously souped-up 16in notebook. It cames with a whopping 1TB solid-state drive and styling inspired by the Reventon, plus a rapid 1GB GeForce GT130M graphics card and Blu-ray drive.
