Revolution Acoustics has introduced a new adapter panel for its SSP6 Multiducer “invisible” speaker that propagates a “360-degree bubble” of sound from a standard size acoustic ceiling tile.

The smart speaker is about to change the way you live. Are you ready?

It’s not every day that a new consumer electronics category comes along that has an adoption rate projected to be faster than that of any other device, including smartphones, computers, TVs, and radios.

Some 56.3 million smart speakers are projected to ship this year, nearly twice as many as last year and 10 times the number shipped in 2016, according to Canalys. In the first quarter of 2017, only 7 percent of U.S. households had smart speakers. By the end of 2020, 75 percent are expected to have them, according to Gartner and Edison Research.

If you live in Delaware, Massachusetts, or New Jersey, congratulations! Your home state ranks top in internet speed, according to a new study from the Consumer Technology Association (CTA). If you live in Mississippi…well, let’s just say there’s work to be done.
