While the MacBook packs plenty of computing performance into a small package, there’s one place it falls short. Actually, it’s an area in which pretty much any notebook is lacking: speakers. While those tinny little laptop speakers can serve fine for belting out mediocre mids and highs, they just aren’t powerful enough to drive those low frequency waves to your drums.
Built specifically to solve your sound deficiencies, the BassJump–get it, like BASE jump, but it’s a subwoofer–brilliant!–is designed to integrate both visually and sonically with your MacBook. Software separates the incoming frequencies, ensuring that mids and lows are delivered to your BassJump. Everything higher is handled by your regular speakers.
While any speaker system could provide similar gains, this one is designed to blend seamlessly with your Mac and it’s fully portable. So if you’re one of those shallow bastards who’s all about looks, it’s available now for $80.
