LAS VEGAS — Do your headphones pack enough bass? Even if they do, they can never give you that experience of being physically pushed by a powerful surge of air — you know, the one you get in a nightclub. 

But a small wearable from a German startup called Lofelt might. 

Called the Basslet, it's a wearable subwoofer — a device that connects with your phone and vibrates on your skin to the rhythm of the song you're listening to. It successfully Kickstarted in June 2016, selling more than 4,500 units, and now it's coming to the U.S. and the UK.

I've tried the Basslet out at CES and was pleasantly surprised with its accuracy. It does not lag behind the music — a feat that wasn't easy to achieve, a company rep tells me — and it really does add an extra dimension to the listening experience, making you feel the bass on your body instead of just hearing it with your ears.  Read more...
