At Macworld | iWorld 2012, there were speakers for every taste and budget, headphones for active lifestyles, and even a few apps designed to work with your music library and listening setup to enhance the listening experience. Here is our roundup of some of the best audio products demonstrated by several companies.

There’s no shortage of new headphones being announced CES this week, and Moshi is one of the latest to serve up their take on sound with the Clarus earphones addition to the Moshio Audio line. The unique two way DynaDuo™ driver of the Clarus model provides a warm analog listening experience versus the clinical sonic signature of the more common balanced armature drivers.

At CES in Las Vegas this week, Griffin Technology is showing off an audio amplifier that uses an Airport Express to capture your AirPlay stream, decode it, then send the lossless, amplified sound through your speakers that otherwise aren’t AirPlay enabled.

We continue to tout the benefits of quality headphones here at Appletell, and a good place to go for quality is Harman International. A good place to see their latest offerings is CES 2012, where they’ll be showing off two new AKG active noise-cancelling headphones. The technologies in the AKG K 490 NC and AKG K 495 NC are powered via USB so these headphones don’t require batteries like other models; just plug them right into your laptop or other available USB port and you’re ready to go.

Audioengine finished up 2011 on a high note with the announcement of two computer audio interface products: the D1 Premium 24-bit DAC and D2 Premium 24-bit Wireless DAC. Audioengine D1 allows users to stream high-quality audio from their computer to headphones, powered speakers, or any music system, while Audioengine D2 provides wireless HD audio streaming more »

Apple’s iDevices are great for sharing videos and music, but not so great for actually listening to them. Sharing headphones is no fun, and the built-in speakers don’t really compensate for any external noise that may interfere. That’s where Satechi’s new BT Portable Speaker comes in. Easily transported, the speaker wirelessly streams audio or phone calls from any Bluetooth enabled device, including the iPad, iPhone, iPod, MacBooks and more.

Target continues to be wildly inaccurate in their sale labeling, but we won’t complain too much when the deals include Apple products and third-party accessories. Their “Very Last-Minute” Holiday Deals ad is five or six days too soon, but you won’t want to wait too much longer to get all the gift cards their offering for iPods, headphones, and more.

chicBuds knows quite a bit about fashionable accessories, as it’s pretty much their modus operandi. Their products don’t just complement your fashion sense, they can become your fashion sense. The Fauvette Speaker is no exception. The little bird is easy to drop into a purse or bag, and to then place on a desk or even hold in your hand when listening. But does it get good sound?

We’ve seen a few leaks this week on Apple’s annual one-day-only Black Friday sales event. The savings on Apple products were accurately slight, but as in years past, Apple is offering significant savings on compatible third-party products. Save over $100 on Bowers & Wilkins speaker docks and various laptop bags, and you can get fun accessories like the Parrot AR.Drone for under $250.00.

These are not high-end headphones with big drivers and fluffy cushions; the Vibrato are earbuds, but they offer a greatly improved performance and fit over the garden variety earbud. For the size and fit they provide good sound reproduction, a handy phone function and a low profile look. If you like using ear buds, these are a very good option.
