This Affordable Soundbar Solves Your TV’s Biggest Audio Weakness

ZVOX, an American audio company that specializes in affordable soundbars, has introduced its most premium soundbar to date. The AV855 is a plug-and-play soundbar featuring four drivers: two 1.46-inch front-facing drivers and two 2.95-inch woofers. Most notably, it’s integrated with the brand’s AccuVoice technology, featuring 20 levels of voice clarification, and is thus a soundbar specifically designed to enhance the midrange and improve dialogue clarity. Additionally, there’s a built-in four-digit display, which shows various settings and volume levels, hidden behind the front grill

Swedish microbrand Nezumi updates its military-inspired chronograph, the Corbeau, with a more striking design that’s a bit less toolish-looking. The 2025 version features some unexpected color combinations, more interesting sandwich subdials and a cleaner 12-hour bezel. This DLC version is especially notable, as it adds black DLC coating on the bezel, pushers, crown and caseback, with the subdial at 6:00 getting a crosshair motif and the one at 9:00 sporting a yellow airplane hand against a yellow and bright blue backdrop. Powered by a meca-quartz movement from Seiko, pricing starts at just $434.

Pirelli and Jaguar Land Rover have launched the first standard production tire made with over 70 percent bio-based and recycled materials. Along with recycled steel and husk-derived silica, it also incorporates bio-resins and bio-circular polymers. At launch, Pirelli developed the tire for a 22-inch wheel size, and it exclusively offered it as an option on select Range Rover models.

Standing out among a host of cool new Cotopaxi bags is this multi-colored, multi-functional carryall, which can be lugged as either a tote or a backpack. A zippered internal sleeve accommodates up to a 16-inch laptop, while two external mesh pockets are perfect for stashing water bottles, sunglasses, snacks and other everyday essentials. Note: The Del Día designation indicates this version of the normally $85 pack is made from high-quality remnant fabrics, hence its varying colorways. That makes it more sustainable and saves you $10.

Were you to spy someone wearing these shorts on the street, you might be fooled into thinking they’re pretty basic, if on-trend, shorts. They have a button closure, belt loops, a five-inch inseam — nothing crazy. Well, you’d be wrong. Along with their stylish looks, these shorts hide some secrets. They’re made from a combo of nylon and elastane, have a hidden drawstring that locks and they’re fast-drying, meaning you can use these as swim trunks, as well as style pieces. They’re available in six handsome colorways, to boot.
