Most soundbars are rectangular black boxes, but the Knit Form takes a softer approach. Wrapped in specially developed knitted fabric, this cylindrical soundbar houses a 5.1.2-channel Dolby Atmos system with built-in subwoofers and 14 channels of amplification. It also comes in five colors designed to complement your living room.
Lexar has taken portable storage to an almost absurd level of thinness. The Muse measures just 3.8 mm at its thickest point and tapers to 1 mm at the edges.
