    Cyber Acoustics CA-2890PRO – Advanced USB & Bluetooth Computer Speaker Bar w/ Monitor Mount

    If you’re an office worker, then you probably spend a fair amount of time working at a desktop computer or a laptop. Still, not all digital work is done alone, as most tech workers nowadays regularly have to attend to online meetings in order to discuss how to approach a project, go over what’s being done, and also to consider the next steps to take. When participating in such meetings, you’ll obviously require an audio solution that allows you to listen to what’s being said by other participants. While you might first think of using an headset or even a pair of earbuds for participating in voice calls or even for listening to music while working at your PC or laptop, utilizing either of those devices for long periods of time can make your head and ears hurt, and can also cause you headaches. A better alternative is to utilize a computer speaker bar, especially if your desk space is limited, as these devices allow you to reproduce the audio from your computer without taking up too much room within your desk. One great option would be the Cyber Acoustics CA-2890PRO.

    The Cyber Acoustics CA-2890PRO is an advanced USB-powered computer speaker bar equipped with a set of Dual Precision Acoustic Stereo Drivers that make it capable of reproducing high-quality audio with great clarity, a rear facing bass radiator that further enhances its sound quality, plus an array of multiple microphones that feature Echo Cancelation technology for an excellent voice pickup and also Smart Voice Enhancement technology to minimize background noise. It also integrates a monitor clip mount that can fit monitors up to 2” thick, plus built-in control buttons for selecting its source and playing/pausing media, muting its microphones when necessary, and adjusting its volume level. It boasts both USB-C connectivity and also USB-A with a built-in adapter for connecting it to PC, Mac, or Chromebook devices, Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity for pairing it with smartphones or tablets for hands-free voice calls, and also compatibility with most leading voice conferencing Apps.
