I'm an audio editor: Here's 3 more of my favorite audio gadgets from the CES show floor

CES continues with aplomb, and the audio gadgetry has me salivating from thousands of miles away. There's been all sorts of new stuff at the show, from a fancy new bass driver in a Bluetooth party speaker to a new line of headphones from an older HiFi brand.

Which devices have me going cookoo for speakers and sonic tech after day 3 of the show? Let's take a walk through the Vegas showfloor to find out.

A brand new bass driver

Brane already broke the laws of physics for more bass with the Brane X speaker, but now it looks like the brand's new bass driver smashes them with a sledgehammer and then drags them through the dust for good measure.

Brane announced two new things at CES 2026, and both look pretty special. There's the RAD 2 bass driver, which builds upon the company's "Repel Attract Driver" from the old model, taking it to the next level.

There's a 30% boost in bass from conventional models, and if the older model is anything to go by, that's about right. They're putting this new and improved model, which is more efficient, into a very snazzy-looking party speaker.

Well, two of them. For more bass. You know, for all the bass. I want... nay, I need one.

New Klipsch gear

Klipsch came fully equipped for CES this year. There were updates to the brands powered speaker line, including the Threes, the Fives and the Nines, and a whole bunch of cool amplifier tech that should get any audio nerds lips a-quivering. But it was some headphones that really piqued my interest.

There are three new models that Klipsch is showing off. There's the wireless Atlus HP-1, which is a noise-cancelling option to rival the best headphones from Sony and Bose. Specs are thin on the ground at the moment, but they look like a premium option.

Then there are two wired options. There's the closed back Atlus HP-2 and the open backed HP-3. I'm excited to try out all three models when they land some time in the summer.

Bose makes ANOTHER appearance without being at the show

You know, for a brand that has no significant presence at CES this year, Bose's name crops up a whole lot. Case in point; the moto sound flow, a speaker that combines Motorola's design with Bose sound for a very slick looking Bluetooth speaker indeed.

It's got a handy charging base to keep the battery topped up when you're not using it, and, as you might have guessed, Bose has tuned the sound. It's IP67 water resistant as well, so you'll be able to use it poolside risk free.

Pantone colors keep it current, and a 6000mAh battery keeps it playing. For how long, though, we're not told. Most interestingly, there's a WiFi connection for streaming higher quality music. Color me very much intrigued — could this be a Sonos Move 2 killer?
