Also, I would like to offer a suggestion to the many exhibitors on the CEDIA show floor: you are absolutely permitted and, dare I say encouraged, to show footage from something other than Pirates of the Carribean. I’m just sayin’.Here are some of the highlights from my third day at CEDIA Expo 2007:Boston AcousticsNow here’s something that should be popular with some folks. If you’ve been wanting a subwoofer
Top 40 Awards
February 2007 From Product Reviews
Every year, the editors of E-Gear magazine selects the top 40 products out of everything we’ve reviewed over the past 12 months. It’s a difficult job because so many products standout each year.

We consider this not only a review of the best of our product reviews, but a round-up of some of the best new gadgets and gear of the year. This year we’ve also done something a little different. We’ve added one more award: Product of the Year. We hadn’t set out to do it;

Escient PowerPlay
November 2001 From Product Reviews
Escient PowerPlay Massive DVD Changer By Markkus Rovito Soon after CDs became the audio medium of choice, large CD changers—or jukeboxes—became a fairly common device for keeping discs always at the ready. Now that it seems certain DVDs will eventually replace VHS tapes, perhaps mammoth DVD changers are the next contraption waiting to go mainstream. For now at least, the DVD jukebox is a rarity. And like most rare desireables, it will be enjoyed primarily by the upper crust. The Escient PowerPlay does things few, if any, other products can do, but it doesn't come cheap. Not only a DVD changer, the PowerPlay
