Zaslavskiy confessed to…
I love SCUF controllers. Or, more accurately, I love all of them but this one. As the proud owner of two of the Infinity4PS Pro models, it was always an easy recommendation to make for anyone looking to drop their hard-earned cash on a premium product. I’m a gamer, and that tag comes with certain…
You’d be forgiven for not having heard of Hifiman before. The headphone company has flourished almost entirely within the audiophile community, producing everything from value-oriented cans to ludicrously expensive examples of audiophile excess. The product I’m writing about today leans towards the latter. The Hifiman RE2000 are the company’s flagship earbuds – properly known as…

I remember a time not so long ago where robot vacuums would set you back $1,000 or more and prove more work than they were worth. They didn’t get corners, left streaky floors, and ended up damaging things like cords, furniture, and sometimes even the floor itself. They were less “smart” device and more “let’s…
