Sony's HT-AX7 is a portable surround sound system
Sony
Sony brought the experience of a surround sound system to people on the go. The company has developed a new speaker with three different speakers. These speakers are designed to fill your space with sound while being portable.
Users place the main speaker of the HT-AX7 portable theater system in front of them, and two smaller speakers on the left and right. The device then uses Sony's spatial sound mapping technology to radiate audio in 360 degrees. It also features an “up mixer algorithm” that makes it seem as if the sound is coming from above your head.
For those looking for a home theater feel, Sony's HT-AX7 portable theater system is available online now for $499 USD.

In another speaker release, Louis Vuitton has debuted its own portable model. LV Nanogram speakers not only provide clean sound, but also serve as interior decor. Despite its light weight, this speaker has a shiny, diamond-shaped design that looks like it's made to sit on a coffee table or bookshelf. That said, if you want to take it with you on the go, it only weighs 1.14 pounds (520 grams).
The speaker's grille is engraved with the LV logo, and the surrounding metal ring features a floral monogram. Nanogram also comes with a beige leather carrying strap and, of course, her luggage-style LV case to protect Nanogram.
The LV Nanogram speaker is priced at $2,230 USD and comes in three color options: silver, rose gold, and green.
