Aperion Audio bucks Black Friday trend, starts sales now

By Caleb Denison Published November 23, 2011

While most companies are teasing their holiday deals and holding out for Black Friday sales, Internet-direct speaker maker Aperion Audio is thumbing its nose at the holiday craze by making its seasonal deals available today.

According to Aperion marketing VP Ed de la Fuente, the company hopes to afford customers an alternative to a clutch decision made amidst a frenzied stampede of shoppers and lower quality, loss-leader products.

Aperion’s three holiday deals are live on its website now and will run until November 30th. The deals include $400 off a 5.1 system based on its 5.5-inch bookshelf speaker, $100 off a pair of its wireless speakers, and $400 off a 5.1 speaker system featuring its slim Verus Forte towers, which won our Editor’s Choice award back in March.

You can now watch Instagram Reels on Apple TV, because why not?

Instagram's new TV app supports Reels, longer videos, and live shows, plus cross-device playback so users can pick up where they left off.

Instagram is making its way to yet another screen, and this time, Apple TV is getting a taste of the Reels rabbit hole. The company has launched a dedicated Instagram app for Apple TV, bringing Reels, longer videos, and live shows to the big screen. So, if watching one quick clip on a phone somehow turns into an hour of scrolling, there's now a much larger screen for that.

Audio Technica ATH-AWX7000 wooden headphones launched

Audio-Technica, a brand well known for making some of the best studio and professional headphones on the market, has just come out with the ATH-AWX7000, which the company itself claims to be its "finest headphones ever." The new flagship closed-back headphone has debuted at an eye-watering price of $3,799. It combines hand-finished Japanese woodwork with a newly developed 58mm driver.

The earcups are made from Kiso cypress, a prized wood historically used for Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. Each housing is finished by hand with traditional Echizen lacquer, which brings out the grain and is expected to darken over time. The frame and sliders are finished in a deep navy kachi-iro shade traditionally associated with samurai.
