A new Onkyo receiver, a remarkable window TV, NFL-inspired workout headphones, and more.

I was immediately drawn to the sf16’s neofuturistic styling. Its gentle curves reminded me of the iconic TWA Flight Center at New York’s JFK Airport—an aeronautic theme sustained by wing-like sound pods that sprout on command. Unusual and unique.

Como Audio has expanded its line of wireless music systems with a two-way speaker that converts its entry-level Solo into a stereo system.

Denon says the wearability, durability, and sound quality of its latest Bluetooth wireless sports earphones have been improved over previous models.

Bowers & Wilkins is applying knowledge gleaned from nearly 40 years of refining its iconic 800 series of floorstanding speakers to a new line of in-wall speakers.

I recently visited the Yamaha Artist Services facility in New York to experience a modern, super-charged version of that old player piano—the Disklavier Enspire.
