Soundmatters' 'foxLO' is a portable tech piece that will bring a whole lot of bass for those who need to kick their tunes up a notch.
With portable devices, certain sacrifices in performance such as bass is expected given the limited size; however, the foxLO is about to change all that. Soundmatters is calling their new device the very first palm-sized sub woofer. The foxLO has a patented Linear Magnetic Drive woofer technology that will pump out 25 watts of bass. The only catch is that it only runs through a main power, which means it's not wireless and that speakers have to be connected to it at all times. But the good news is that these are compatible with just about any speaker.
Look for the foxLO to make its debut at CES 2012.
