You’ll often hear audiophiles refer to something called the sweet spot: that space between two speakers where the sound resonates in the best, most-balanced possible way. Enter Mass Fidelity’s ‘Core Wireless’ speaker—which embodies and boasts that sweet spot from one, tiny box. What’s more, the ‘Core’ can sync with up to nine other boxes in a home, to literally (well, almost) raise the roof with clear, room-filling sound.
The speaker features special ‘Wave Field Synthesis’ technology, which causes sound to bounce off walls, for a full, stereo effect—up to 44Hz—without the help of a subwoofer. (The Core can connect to an external subwoofer, though, if you choose.)
The multi-room system works via Bluetooth, but the speaker can host other connection options, if you’d like to plug it into a TV, for example—or even a turntable, for analog use.
The Core Wireless has multiple super powers, but here’s one of our favorites: It has a 12-hour battery life and is completely portable. At roughly 6 square-inches, the speaker can fit in your palm. Bonus? The Core will retail for $599, but it’s available now via its Indiegogo campaign for $389 (as a perk)! You can also contribute $999 and receive three speakers—something we think sounds pretty awesome.

I’m struggling to survive Gastroparesis. Simply explained, this is a disorder that slows or stops the movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine. Within our bodies is the vagus nerve that controls the muscles of the stomach that normally contract to break up food and move it through the gastrointestinal tract as well as the hormones and enzymes that helps us digest food. It goes deeper than this, however, also controlling our involuntary functions such as breathing, blood pressure, swallowing and heart rate. Even our emotions are affected by it. Gastroparesis occurs when that nerve becomes damaged by injury/illness and the stomach muscles cease to contract normally. This slows or all together stops movement of food from the stomach to the small intestine. Any support at this time would be greatly appreciated, since I’ll be trying a trial of meds in the next few weeks and if my electrolytes are not strong enough it could cause potential heart damage/failure. This is an invisible yet life threatening condition, and many who have it appear normal; the photo of my progressive weight loss is only a small representation of my deterioration.
