Types of Bluetooth Speakers

Bluetooth speakers, also known as parlantes Bluetooth in Spanish, usually come in two different types. Passive speakers are powered completely by an external amplifier and are most often used in larger venues. Active speakers feature an on-board amplifier and power supply, making them portable, but also capable of providing custom, tailored sound settings and audio processing features.

Depending on your listening needs and environment, one of the two types can best suit your indoor or outdoor demands. Both varieties offer optimal sound quality within their recommended signal range, but if you’re looking to extend that further during larger events or open-air locations, then you’ll want to consider additional equipment such as Bluetooth extenders (commonly called repeaters) to effectively extend signal range without sacrificing audio quality.

Factors Affecting Bluetooth Range

When it comes to extending the range, it’s important to know the different factors that can affect the reach of your signal. Knowing these factors and taking steps to address them can help you avoid audio breaks and drop-outs as well as improve sound quality.

Distance

Distance can have a major impact on the range and this is largely determined by the type of Bluetooth device you are using. Class-1 Bluetooth devices have a maximum specified range of 100 meters while class-2 typically reach a maximum of 10 meters. The antennas inside each device will also have an influence when it comes to distance, as well as any obstacles such as walls, furniture and even people that stand between you and your speaker/headset.

Bandwidth

The type of bandwidth allocated for each packet being sent between two devices also has an impact on how far these packets reach before they start degrading with increased distance. For audio, high bitrate codecs (i.e., SBC codec with 128 kbps or even 48 kbps) require higher ranges compared with narrow band codecs (i.e., narrow or lower bitrate such as 11 kbps).

Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS)

FHSS is a technology used in some wireless basebands which makes it possible for transmitters to move (hop) their signal across multiple frequency points in a band instead of sending all signals at one frequency point only. This helps avoid interference caused by many wireless signals operating at the same frequency within range, thus improving communication reliability in wireless networks including Bluetooth headsets/speakers over extended distances or with obstacles blocking its path.

Simple Tips to Boost Bluetooth Signal Range

Bluetooth is a great technology for wirelessly connecting devices. The signal can be improved by making simple tweaks to the environment without changing your speakers. By following a few basic tips, you can increase the range of them and enjoy the highest quality sound possible.

– Move Devices Closer: One of the simplest things you can do to improve range is place the device sending and receiving signals closer together. Placing devices within five feet of each other will guarantee maximum signal strength and optimal performance.

– Use Accessories: If physically moving your devices closer is not an option, there are accessories that can help boost signal strength. A coaxial coupler works like an amplifier and extends up to 100 meters in length, allowing you to move farther away from the source device while still receiving clear audio signals.

– Create a Clear Line of Sight: Make sure that there are no objects in between your speaker and receiver unit – Walls, furniture, even people act as blockages for signals so it’s important that they are eliminated when possible. Many speakers come with built-in stands, so take advantage of them if available!

– Setup Stationary Connections: Avoid attempting to move the speaker or receiver while connected as this can degrade signal strength due to long distances traveled or large physical barriers encountered along the way. Instead opt for stationary setups where both devices remain in one location at all times during use – this ensures consistent performance regardless of location changes later on down the road!

Advanced Tips to Boost Bluetooth Signal Range

Most of this type of signal ranges are limited to about 33 feet (10 meters). This range can, however, be extended or boosted with a few advanced tips and tricks.

One way is to use a dedicated antenna or extender. These are usually powered products, such as a small USB dongle that is inserted into the base of the speaker’s Bluetooth unit and placed in an area with clear line-of-sight of your other devices. The dongle will then amplify the signal, extending its reach to up to 100+ feet.

You can also connect two devices together via Bluetooth and have them “handshake” or send audio through each other, thus amplifying the signal strength. The primary device (such as your laptop) should be set up as the “master” and connected to a secondary device (such as an amplifier or speaker) which will then receive music from it instead of directly from your mobile device.

Another tip is to move around your home while streaming music from your wireless device in order to determine which locations provide optimal signal strength for your speaker.

Avoid placing any barriers between your speakers and streaming devices and opt for wireless mesh networks over wireless networks when available; this helps reduce signal interference from other wireless signals in your area. Additionally, making sure all antennas are pointing as directly towards each other as possible can help boost their connection strength beyond normal levels.

Conclusion

In conclusion, there are a variety of ways to boost or extend your Bluetooth speaker signal range. These methods will help you get more out of your existing speaker system and enjoy music without interruptions. When selecting a range extender, always consider the distance you want to improve and the strength of the signal it needs to transmit.

A stronger signal will require more power and can be an expensive solution. You should also take into consideration the quality of the range extender itself. After considering these points, look for an affordable and quality range extender that can meet your needs best. You may also want to consider using a wireless adapter connected to your computer in order to get better streaming performance from certain applications such as Netflix or Hulu Plus. With these solutions, you’re sure to find improved audio performance with only minimal investment!

Those days could now be a thing of the past, thanks to FreeAllMusic, whose service will allow users to download free music legally to their computers, albeit after watching some video ads. So does free mean crappy? Not exactly, according to NYT, 2 out of the 4 major music labels have signed up with the service and will provide the full catalog of songs for downloads. They even have a lineup of 6 major advertisers on board, including Coca Cola, Warner Bros and Zappos.

The best part about FreeAllMusic is that, you can legally share the music you download with anyone else. In technical terms, the music you download from the site is DRM free.

Users will have to spend 15-30 seconds to watch a video ad, before they can download the songs. However, that would mean that you save .99 cents per song. Limitations? Yes, there will be limitations as to how much music a user can download, however, there is no indications as to what the limitations are.

This is a win win situation for both advertisers and the users, as advertisers will be assured that their ads will be viewed and users will get free music.

Nevertheless, this system has it’s own flaws. For example, imagine that, I as a user want to download a MP3 file and start the process to download it, the video ad plays, and I walk out to get my coffee. After returning back, I download the free music without even watching the advertisements. Based on this, it is hard to say how long this will be a success, however, the concept is good and may become quite popular. Only time will tell, whether it is a hit or it is a fail.

FreeAllMusic is currently in beta and will open to public in late January. Would you prefer to download free music in lieu of advertisements? Let us know about your thoughts.

This tiny music player is contained in a single executable file about 200k in size. Despite the small size, STP has everything you need to easily listen to and manage your MP3 collection. It’s designed to stay out of your way and provide music while you are busy doing other things on your PC.

Installation and first use

This program is offered as a ZIP file collection. Since STP is a single EXE file, you can unzip and place the STP.EXE file anywhere on your hard drive. As far as I can tell it’s completely portable and you should be able to use it from a flash drive or any other media.

Once you launch it, you’ll see the STP icon in your system tray. It will save it’s own settings in an STP.INI file after it’s started.

A right single click on the STP icon reveals all the settings, controls and options. Normal left single mouse clicks will pause and play the current song. You can assign other functions to both right and left double and triple clicks of the mouse.

Using the STP minibar

Under the Windows menu, STP can be set to display a “minibar” interface that many people will recognize as common in music players. The minibar can be dragged around on the screen by grabbing the dark grey rectangle on the right end.

The minibar also displays the standard Play, Pause, Stop, Forward and Backward buttons. The next “now playing” field is active and clicking on it will cause the player to jump to different portions of the song almost instantly. The next field shows the volume as a percentage. Clicking on the volume field allows you to change the volume up and down.

After the volume field, you can see that there are 5 letters displayed. Clicking on the letters “I E P T A” provides quick access to many of the often used player functions.

I – brings up up “MP3 Info” on the currently playing song where you can also edit the ID3 tags.

E – launches the built in “Equalizer” which allows you to adjust the sound frequencies and save or load EQ settings.

P – displays a playlist which can be saved as M3U or PLS files. MP3 files can be dragged and dropped on the playlist and once there, they can be re-ordered by dragging them up or down in the list. Playlists can also be searched by typing in the “Find Track” field at the top of the playlist.

T – shows the “Tracks” menus which I’d say should really be called the “Folders” because it allows you to see all the music folders that your current playlist is using.

A – shows “Album” menu with the current music folder and the songs in it.

That basically covers using the “minibar” interface. I prefer using only the systray icon along with some custom hotkeys.

Using Hotkeys instead of the minibar

You can set your own custom hotkeys in STP by going to the Settings / Advanced menu. You’ll find lots of other goodies in this settings menu, but let’s focus on the hotkeys which can be accessed by hitting the “Hotkeys” button at the bottom.

Almost every function of STP can be accessed by hotkeys that you can define.

As you can see, I only use a few of the hotkeys such as Play/Pause, Prev/Next and Volume. Those alone are enough to keep me from having to click open any other menus while using STP.

The only other MP3 player that I like as much as STP, is Foobar. Keshav, my friend and co-author here at Techie-Buzz, has written several posts about Foobar. It’s a well supported MP3 player with plenty of skins and plugins.

Techie Buzz Verdict:

There are very few MP3 players that are smaller than STP and I’d give it 5 points for cramming in all of it’s features in such a small and completely portable package. However, I have to take one point back because the author is no longer actively developing this application. The source code is available for this application. Does anyone need a coding project?

Announcing this, Sunil Bharti Mittal, Chairman and Managing Director, Bharti airtel said, Fifteen years ago Bharti airtel started its journey in India with a promise of delivering world class and affordable services. Today, as we expand on the global stage, this new brand identity gives us the opportunity to present a single, powerful and unified face to our customers, stakeholders and partners around the world. It reinforces our promise to deliver innovative services and a superior brand experience to our 200 million customers across Asia and Africa.

The red color, which is an integral part of the brand, continues to represent the energy and dynamism that has made Airtel the success it is today. The new curved addition to the logo is a symbol which will help ensure instant recognition across diverse international markets.

Along with that, Airtel have even more reasons to celebrate, since the company reached a new milestone of 200 million customers. Airtel crossed 50 million customers in October 2007 and 100 million in May 2009. The next 100 million customers were added by the company in just 18 months.

The Airtel signature tune has also been refreshed by A R Rahman making it youthful and dynamic. The Airtel’s previous tune made history as world’s most downloaded mobile music with over 150 million downloads. But personally we didn’t liked the new signature tune. You can check out the new signature tune and the new TV commercial below.

Airtel also announced that it will launch its 3G services in India by the end of this year. The company have already grabbed 3G license for 13 telecom circles in India Mumbai, Delhi, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh (West), Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh, Bihar, Assam, North East, Jammu & Kashmir.

However, just after installation, you’ll notice the GUI is very simple, in fact, it’s the most simplest. It’s just grey. That’s all. Then how is it powerful? That’s what you’ll find out in this post.

Although Foobar2000’s base is closed source, it’s development kit, the SDK, is licensed under the BSD license. So there’s a plethora of plugins and modules that can enhance the player’s functionality. Moreover, a lot of advanced features are actually hidden under its hood, that we will tell you about today.

Settings and Configurations

There are several changes you can make to the default installation to make Foobar more happening and useful. Let us check out what they are. Below are some components that we recommend.

1. Add all your media files to the library (and keep them in sync): Just like any other player, you can import all your library into Foobar. The folders that you wish to add will be synchronized and any deletion/addition of music from those folders will instantaneously reflect in your Foobar library.

• Click Library → Configure. In the dialog box that opens, click on Media Library’ in the sidebar.
• Click on Add to add the folders you wish to monitor. Once added, Foobar will import all music files present in those folders and also monitor them for any changes.

2. Associate File Types: Foobar supports a large list of file formats. To select Foobar’s association with different formats, follow these steps.

• Click Library → Configure. In the dialog box that opens, click on File Types’ in the sidebar.
• Select for which formats you wish to make Foobar the default music player.

3. Configure Keyboard Shortcuts: Keyboard shortcuts play a very important role for any music player. And Foobar does a very good job of handling them. You can create and edit keyboard shortcuts in Foobar, it’s just so easy.

• Click Library → Configure. In the dialog box that opens, click on General’ and then Keyboard Shortcuts’ in the sidebar.
• Click the Add Newbutton. Select an action in the Action’ column. Use the Filter box to quickly browse through the actions you require, example: next, play pause, volume up/down.
• Go to the Key’ box and type in the keyboard key you wish to make the shortcut for the specified action. It can be a combination of keys. Also, if you wish to make it a Global Hotkey, click the corresponding checkbox. Making it a Global Hotkey will let you use the shortcuts even when Foobar is not selected, or you are using another application!

4. Make the cursor follow playback: When songs are being played in a playlist, by default, the song selection does not automatically shift when a new track plays after another. It means, the window will not automatically scroll up or down as per the track’s location. To fix this:

• Click on Playback’ and select Playback follows cursor’ and Cursor follows playback’

5. Set the order of playback: You won’t see the usual Random’ or Shuffle’ button here in Foobar. It is, in fact, just a click away under a submenu.

• Click on Playback’ → Order. Select the order of playback you want from the options given. Ample options, eh?

6. Minimize to Notification area and Balloon Tooltip: You can minimize Foobar to the Notification area with a single config edit. Enabling balloon tooltips also needs just a click.

• Click Library → Configure. Select Display → Default User Interface. Under the System Notification Area’ column, select Always show notification area icon’, Minimize to notification area’ and Show balloon tooltip on song change’. Of course, you may select the options you desire and not necessarily these.

7. Installing themes: Foobar also supports GUI customization and theming. There are several themes available on the internet, most popularly on DeviantArt. Each theme has its own installation instructions and many themes also require certain modules to be installed. More on modules later. Anyhow, to install a theme:

• Click Library → Configure. Select Display → Default User Interface. Under Theme Management’, click on Import theme’. Select the theme file you’d downloaded from DeviantArt or any other place.

Components and Modules

Functionality can be added to the player by using several components or modules that are available. A bunch of them have been developed and supported by the developer, rest are community developed.

The Fooblog has an interesting read on useful components. You should definitely check it out. Fooblog notes:

Installation of components couldn’t be simpler, once downloaded browse to your foobar2000 application directory, typically:

C:\Program Files\foobar2000\

From here enter the components directory, making sure that fb2k is closed, paste the newly downloaded component .dll file here. Close the folder and open up fb2k again to check the component has installed go to File > Preferences (CTRL+P) > Component. This page lists all the installed plugins, their titles and their version numbers. Double clicking the component will bring up some basic information about it, for instance its purpose and the author.

Each component will have a different method of configuration but ultimately these options will appear in the preferences panel under the associated section, e.g. Display, Tools, Library, etc.

1. Enable Last.fm Scrobbling

• Download Audioscrobbler (foo_audioscrobbler.dll)
• Save the file in [InstallationDrive]:\Program Files\foobar2000\components

5. Add ASIO output support

Useful for rare/obscure soundcards that provide ASIO drivers but no regular Windows audio drivers, as well as for bit-exact output on any soundcards that provide ASIO drivers.

1. Install the ASIO component from the foobar2000 official components site.
2. Configure it – Preferences / Playback / Output / ASIO Virtual Devices. This step is necessary because there’s no automatic way to detect which ASIO device channel corresponds to which speaker; additionally, multiple identical soundcards present in your system are presented as different ASIO channel groups provided by one driver rather than different drivers.
3. Set your output device to one of configured ASIO devices.

6. Audio CD Burning Support

This module allows you to burn audio CDs from any of supported audio formats, through context menu commands. No longer requires Nero to be installed.

Download dll file and place it in your components folder.

7. Displays your media library in multiple list views.

This module collects playback statistics for your Media Library content. Statistics can be displayed in the Properties dialog or using %first_played%, %last_played%, %played_per_day%, %play_count%, %added% and %rating% in the Playlist view of the Default User Interface under the Library → Configure.

10. Quickly Tag Music with Quick Tagger

Quick Tagger adds customizable context menu commands for quickly setting tag fields to preconfigured values (for rating and such). Can be used to bind keyboard shortcuts to simple tag modifications.

The configuration for the Quick Tagger can be found in the foobar2000 preferences on the Tools > Tagging > Quick Tagger page. For example, it can be used to write a rating tag to files. Click the Add New button to add a new preset, and change the name to “Rating” (without the quotation marks) and press Enter. Then press F2 or click on the values column and change the text to “1; 2; 3; 4; 5”. This will create a new submenu in the context menu at Tagging / Quick Tagger. The new commands can be invoked directly through the context menu, or they can be bound to keyboard shortcuts as usual.

Adding Quick Tags Values:

Now setting up keyboard shortcuts for the values:

Download Quick Tagger

11. Install Equalizer Presets: Foobar2000 has a built in Equalizer, but there are no presets for you to choose. But we can download some and load them as we need.

• Download Equalizer Presets (Second option, under the Download heading)
• Extract the zip package and put the preset files somewhere you can find them later.
• Restart Foobar2000. Go to View → Equalizer. Check Equalizer Enabled’ and click the Load’ button. Select any one preset you downloaded previously.

What Say?

Foobar2000 is a minimalistic yet powerful media player. It’s got a wealth of customization options. A good deal of developers can be found at HydrogenAudio Forums where you can also get support for the application. A list of ALL components can also be found here.

Even though, it lacks some features such as Video playback, it does Audio playback nicely and is well, very snappy at what it does. Whatever number of components you load into it and whatever functionality you add, it still takes no more than a second to start up.

With a totally customized version, a number of components installed and monitoring a music library of 30Gb, Foobar on my machine does not take any more than 14Mb of RAM at a time.

Buying Guide

It can be hard to narrow down your options when TOZO offers such a wide range of options. Fortunately, I’ll show you how to choose the best wireless earbuds for you in this post.

IP-rating

If you enjoy working out or participating in sports, the most basic IPX4 model will suffice.

Battery Life

When it concerns continuous listening time, earbuds can’t compete with headphones, but you shouldn’t compromise for any less than 6 hours. As a result, long battery life is essential. Choose earphones with a continuous playback life of at least 9 hours, which will allow you to take phone calls and listen to music while working a full-time job.

Ergonomics and Comfort

Sadly, this is a problematic issue to determine because it’s difficult to tell how comfy a pair of earphones is when purchasing online. Even if you hear what others have to say about the in-ear design of the earbuds, your ear shape may be different, so you never know unless you try.

Sound Quality

Because TOZO earbuds are so inexpensive, it’s challenging to provide an objective assessment of their overall sound quality. Some argue that these buds lack features like robust bass reproduction and effective noise cancellation, so if you’re an audiophile, make sure you prioritize sound quality over price.

Sensitivity

If you’re particular about the volume levels of your headphones, you should look at the sensitivity of the earbuds. The sensitivity of a pair of earphones determines how loud they can be.

Aesthetics

When it comes to headphones, aesthetics should be the last element of your attention, as over-the-top designs typically lead to compromises. We understand that looks are important but remember that the actual purpose of your earbuds is good sound quality, so try only to choose aesthetics if they don’t detract from your earbuds’ functionality, comfort, or audio quality.

To Conclude

TOZO earbuds are the best option for a less expensive alternative to premium earbuds. This company provides some great features, which is why TOZO has been the customer’s favorite for a long time now.

Quality of sound, voice quality, great build, active noise cancellation, controls, and general features are all excellent and well worth the investment. If you’re seeking the best wireless earbuds for gym and workout, this article will assist you in making the right decision.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes TOZO earphones so unique?

The common denominator with TOZO earphones and any other pair of earbuds in their collection emphasizes economy without sacrificing quality. Although TOZO products are a quarter of the price of some competitors, quality should not be a concern. Qualities like IPX8 waterproof, noise-canceling, and hi-fi audio, in addition to the Bluetooth platform at TOZO pricing, are hard to beat in today’s busy, budget-conscious world.

What makes TOZO earphones so cheap?

The complete lack of brand marketing is the essential aspect that leads to TOZO devices being so inexpensive. TOZO does not have an advertising agency to advertise its products on billboards or in television commercials.

How does TOZO advertise its products?

The majority of their advertising comes from word of mouth, which they have taken advantage of by offering reasonable and competitively priced wireless Bluetooth earbuds with remarkable features and specifications.

Is there a warranty on TOZO wireless earbuds?

Yes, TOZO offers a 45-day cash guarantee and a one-year warranty on all its items.

Why should you invest in a pair of earbuds?

Earbuds, whether wired or wireless, are exceedingly convenient to transport. You may easily stuff them into a bag or roll them up into a bag and go about the day. The silicon or memory foam ear tips form a solid seal that shuts out background music, and when properly fitted, they can be nearly as good as noise-canceling headphones.
