Pump Up The Bass…On Your Phone
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Yamaha. All opinions are 100% mine.
Warning: I am completed dating myself by the following statement. No, I am not involved in the courtship of the image in the mirror, but the other Webster’s Dictionary definition of the term. When I was about twelve, my Walkman and I were inseparable. It did not tag along in my book bag, but was pulled out of a drawer every night when I was trying to study or read a book. I wasn’t too interested in letting other people in on what I was listening to. Somewhere in my teen years, all I wanted was a boom box for my birthday. For some reason, I had a brief streak of extrovertedness, but while the boom box blasted, the Walkman sat. It was scientifically impossible to use both at once, unless you wore the headphones to the Walkman and blasted the boom box load enough to hear both.
Luckily, modern technology has solved that historical dilemma with the Yamaha PDX-60 speaker dock. I first became acquainted with Yamaha when my cousin bought Yamaha keyboard and equipment. It was definitely a step up from my 12″ long Casio with the preprogrammed rhumba drum beat. Oh no. I am dating myself again. Ahem. Any way, you can be all fine and happy with your iPod, but then you can go home and plop it in there, and enjoy being surrounded by your tunes. That may be nothing really earthshattering, but you can also use the docking station with your iPhone. Now, that’s new!
There are so many features and so much media on our cell phones these days that many people consolidate and substitute a high tech phone for an MP3 player and a more pedestrian cell phone. Do you remember the day planners with the big velcro strips to hold your PDA? Well, the PDA bigger than your foot has also been absorbed into the phone. Sometimes the owners of the phones that do everything but your laundry did not consciously consolidate and eliminate all of these devices, but are experiencing MP3, camera and PDA elements for the first time with the features of their iPhone. The speaker dock serves that market well also.
Do you think phones do a little too much these days? Well, what’s one more thing? I am surprised there isn’t a docking station yet to project the contents of your phone on your television, though I am sure Yamaha is working on it. The speakers do have a rich bass sound, so maybe your old boom box won’t beat up your phone at night anymore for being a lightweight.
