    Compact but packs a punchNo matter how splendid Apple® headsets are, sometimes your ears get sore when you have earphones plugged into them for too long. Sometimes you want to be surrounded by perfect-sounding tunes without being aurally isolated from the world.

    You’re the type who likes things portable and compact (which also refers to what you spend for them). That’s why you have an iPod touch and a BurgerBass mini speaker. The entertainment system that’s spot on for you.

    As I write this, I have the iPod/BurgerBass combo on cool Norah Jones tracks. BurgerBass mini speakerThe “hamburger” speaker delivers a surprisingly crisp, rich sound that’s comparable to some bigger systems. I’m not a sound engineer, but I guess the remarkable bass resonance is care of BurgerBass’ accordion-like design. It’s just one tiny apparatus, and yet the output is that of a high-fidelity loudspeaker’s.

    What’s more, it weighs almost nothing, and packs neatly like a really tiny… uh… burger patty. The speaker comes embedded with lithium-ion batteries, which you can recharge by plugging it into your computer’s USB port (retractable cable included). At Php950, this minute burger is a bargain!

    The iPod touch 16gb retails for about Php16,750 now. It’s the dream Christmas gift — for a loved one, or a valued employee as reward for a good year behind. ;)

    Happy Holidays, everyone!

      The BurgerBass is available at PowerHub by Chimes. My friend tells me, though, that there's an even better model, but it's not in stock now.

      The burger bass looks exactly like the x-mini….could it be the same product rebranded? anyway it's a really great product, packs a lot of attitude in such a small package.

      Yes it's exactly the same, but my friend tells me that the xmini's sound is better than the burgerbass', especially at high volumes.
