Kickstarter Announces Exciting New Tools for Creators and Backers

Crowdfunding continues to be a vital strategy for startups and even established businesses to fund and launch products, assessing its market potential and value perception. Among those platforms, Kickstarter is a leading service that has even generated an ecosystem of supporting partners. Now, Kickstarter announced its most ambitious expansion, introducing features that will simplify crowdfunding for creators but also elevate the experience for backers.

There is a very interesting new audio project being promoted on Kickstarter. Coming from Orchard Audio, the BOSC is a well engineered hi-fi monoblock audio amplifier that explores the latest gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor technology to achieve ultra-high performance in a small package. This compact and affordable 150 watt amplifier shows a lot of potential, with an impressive circuit design and high-quality sound, and is available in 3-4Ω (13.8dB gain) or 6-8Ω (16.8dB gain) versions.

audioXpress has published some really interesting stories about new audio companies, born out of their founders’ imagination, creativity, and deep convictions on their own designs. Crowdfunding helps to convert ideas into successful products and create new businesses. But the crowdfunding route is also full of valuable marketing lessons on what should not be attempted.
