JLab Introduces New True Wireless Earbuds with Multipoint Technology

JLab’s new JBuds Air Pro earbuds are the latest release from the brand in an effort to reset expectations for affordable true wireless products. With an MSRP of just $60, JLab’s JBuds Air Pro incorporates class-leading features that set it apart from others in this price point, and even from higher-priced products from the leading brands. But the main differentiator is the fact that the JBuds Air Pro promote Bluetooth multipoint for simultaneous multi-device connectivity, a technology that very few products offer and not even promoted as part of Bluetooth LE Audio so far.

Reading Glasses and Hearing Aids. Smart or FDA-Approved. Pick One.

Making Audio Augmentation useful for everyone, or pursue the regulatory requirements of OTC hearing aids. This article offers a useful perspective regarding the guidance documents published by the US Food and Drug Administration regarding improved access to hearing aid technology. The agency proposes a rule to establish a new category of over-the-counter (OTC) hearing aids - to be sold directly to consumers in stores or online without a medical exam or a fitting by an audiologist. But most audio manufacturers are better off by not pursuing this FDA-approved OTC market. Doing so will simply hinder critical experimentation and innovation.

xMEMS Samples Ultra-Small Full-Range Microspeaker

Back in January 2015, I gave a talk about MEMS loudspeakers, and I have regularly written about MEMS speaker progress. A half decade later, it seems we are finally now moving beyond the industry's joke that MEMS’ development progress can be measured in dog years: it takes 7 human years for each year of MEMS’ progress! The big news is xMEMS Labs, a company founded just in January 2018, has announced it is now in mass production of its Montara, a monolithic MEMS “µspeaker” with a slim 1mm profile, and announced Cowell, the world’s smallest monolithic MEMS µSpeaker, at just 1.15mm high and 3.2mm wide.
