Product Reviews for Today:
USB Sound Card
I recently found that my sound card on the old PC I use had bit the dust. So my thought was lets get a sound card for the computer but the more I thought about it the less I liked cracking open my PC and spending $60-100 for a new sound card. I found the TechRise usb Sound card that was completely easy to use, just plug it into an existing USB port and Windows just sees and uses it.
And if that is not the best part then what is? That the price was $11.99!!
Remote Control
My wife says that our home is where remotes go to die and while I think that is an over statement, I can tell you have our fill of them. We have Amazon Fire Cubes, which I will review in depth at a later date. However, I felt that getting a new remote was now a priority given that she was laying in bed trying to see the buttons on the remote. I researched and found the Amazon Alexa Voice Remote Pro which appear to be the fix for the issue.
It has backlit keys and a cool find it utility (since we always seem to mis-place remotes, is it a wonder we have so many?) It was $34.99, which is considerably less than many of the remotes that now languish in the drawer.
But in addition, I added a remote cover case in an excellent red color, so it stands out in our bedroom. The cover was $14.99 and while not required, it gives a cool look to the remote.
Microphone
So I am doing YouTube as well as some other content creation and needed a Microphone to address that sound issue. I looked at the Shure microphone and while the price was more than I wanted to pay I have to say that it is among the best for audio. So, being basically frugal, I opted for the AudioPro USB microphone that has both usb output and a headphone jack for listening to the captured audio. It also has a pop filter, which I am glad about as I do tend to make extra sounds as I record. It was a reasonable $39.97.
