Boston Acoustics high humidity ceiling speakers, the VSi H470T2 and HSi H460T2, go through an exhaustive life test that submits the speakers to many years of exposure to the elements. The loudspeakers are designed to pass the internationally recognized IEC529 and Mil Spec 810. These tests simulate approximate climatic conditions and provide an indication of the degrees of weather resistance. Boston Acoustics further submits these models to long term in-use testing throughout the country. And besides all that fancy-shmancy technical stuff, they sound simply amazing…but of course they do.

There is an important reason why a high-end concert grand piano looks SO much cooler than a black gloss microwave oven at Target. So why is this? A furniture maker’s secret? Here’s the answer: There are a bunch of ways to achieve black gloss. The absolute top method is with a Polyester (PE) finish, multiple coats, hand-sprayed, hand-sanded, hand-buffed with powered buffing wheels. This kind of black gloss lacquer finish is what you’ll find on pianos, as well as Boston’s VS Series and Reflection Series speakers. Not only does PE give a deep, deep, deep mirror-like finish, but it is extraordinarily durable. The next-best option is Polyurethane (PU) which is also impressive – it is sprayed and fast-cured with UV light, and we use it on our great-looking Duo-i plus iPhone-docking radios. Yet another method to get gloss is by applying a gloss black vinyl laminate to wooden panels. And then the most mainstream glossy black finish is simple plastic, injection molded in what is called a “mirror finished tool” – nice, but no grand piano!

We’re giving away a pair of Voyager 7 Outdoor Speakers. Why? Because we’re celebrating Spring with the Rock the Yard outdoor speaker promo, that’s why.
Voyager 7 outdoor speakers are Boston’s top-of-line on-wall outdoor speakers. They are designed to blend gracefully with virtually any outdoor setting and are specially voiced for open-air environments. These tough and durable outdoor speakers feature rustproof hardware and connectors, powder-coated aluminum grilles, UV-resistant polypropylene cabinets, and are designed to withstand the harshest weather and temperature extremes. Each speaker, anchored by a heavy-duty aluminum c-bracket, is incredibly easy to mount and is designed to fit the tightest spaces. Voyager 7 speakers can also be used indoors and placed on a shelf or mounted to a wall.

Can I share a secret with you? When I’m here at the office, I have a tough time admitting that I still play CDs, but the reality is, I listen to them all day long when I’m home with my baby. And, most of my friends still play their CD players whenever we get together. Yes, of course I have an iPod, and yes my playlists offer great variety, but there is just something satisfying about popping in a CD and pushing play. And repeat. And random. So what if I’m stuck in the 90s…Who would my co-workers poke fun at if I was as technically advanced as they were. So if you’re like me, check out our Trio Stereo CD Table Radio and party like it’s 1999.
