JVC Releases Array of iPod/iPhone Speaker Docks at CES

Add as a preferred source on Google

JVC unveiled a whole slew of new iPod/iPhone speaker docks at CES this week. We are loving the variety of styles that JVC has been rolling out so far–especially the company’s ode to the great Kaboom Boombox, which is now the JVC “RB-NV50 Kaboom” iPod/iPhone speaker dock system. Although some of their new products are a little pricey, with JVC’s performance standards and all the extra features thrown into these docks, we feel it’s worth the splurge. Check out some of JVC’s recently released iPod/iPhone speaker docks…

The system includes JVC’s Sound Turbo for wall-shaking low frequency performance, USB Host, a CD player and an AM/FM tuner. The NX-D2 is available now for $399.95.

The best free VPNs for 2026
The best free VPNs still come with compromises, but a few offer enough privacy and flexibility to be genuinely useful.
Proton VPN UI

A virtual private network (VPN) encrypts your internet traffic and routes it through a server run by the VPN provider. Websites see the VPN server’s IP address instead of yours, and you can get around geo-blocks, censorship, and ISP throttling. The best VPN services are paid, but there are still a handful of free options that do the job well. 

Most free VPNs come with a hidden cost, because running servers isn’t cheap and a company that doesn’t charge you has to make its money somewhere else. Many do so by logging your browsing activity and selling it to advertisers, while others flood you with ads and track you across apps.
