Sony Sent An Unexpected Package...

Alright, so this test is with the mic capsule facing to the inside of the shirt

And so the shirt is in the way. The benefit is it should be harder to clip it

Alright, so now the preamp on the camera is all the way down to one

So this is as quiet as this particular mic can perform on this camera

Now, could you get a camera with a less sensitive preamp? Normally, you wouldn't want that because then you have to crank up the gain and then you get a higher noise floor

It is set to a level one. And this is the type of volume I'm sure the microphone would love you to stay at

But if you're a person like me, from time to time, you need a little more headroom

And then you got to kind of even everything else out after the fact. A limiter would be wonderful

A compressor, something like this. Because I might have to... I mean, eventually we probably should just get an external audio interface

But for now, you can go either into yours or into... Oh, you can go and just roll into that

That's what I meant, yeah. Oh, okay. What level am I right now, Jack

I better be at least at the low end. We'll bring it up later in post, I'll tell you what

Jack told me not to yell today. I clipped the mic yesterday and I blew a couple speakers

The coffee is warm today. It's warming me up. Jack's getting creative because he can move around now

So he can go back. He can go forward. I think he secretly wants the hoverboard back though

No, there's no room for it. We can't. There's no room. Help who

You think Jack needs help? You talking about robot legs? Oh, I know what you're thinking

Will always looking for the next thing isn he Sometimes the next new thing is not what you want it to be goodness gracious will we in trouble over here aren we what do we got we could crack this fedex box since this is

where we got will's gold bond yesterday yeah your name's on the packages so therefore you know what

it is you always know what it is so you don't get the surprise i get the surprise sony sent us

something that's exciting this is a competitor to the Bose product and I had a time with that

oh my god it's so weird so this might take us to outer space you want to try it out or what

shall we dance Kirk what do you think man is this you walking around the house or what

Kirk's just trying to keep the dream alive in terms of cinema. The word cinema. Kirk is Mr

Cinema. Sony SRSWS1 Immersive Wearable Speaker. I think you're supposed to still have your

headphones and have this and they serve different purposes. Ooh. All right. Nice little unboxing

experience right there and it looks like a kind of cool charging scenario as well

Charge dock. There's two pieces to it. Do you use this on the couch? Is that the idea? You put

your audio source into there. I mean we're gonna figure it out. Oh cushion, comfort, texture

tremendous accessory package dc in digital in and og in so this is definitely where your audio

source connects to maybe you want to connect the digital out from your playstation something like

that and then this base here is nothing but a dc in in the form of micro usb and then this

fits with a magnet that nice i care about charging what can i say i want things to be charged Docs help me charge it all Because I got a charging nightmare I be honest with you I can even wear a smartwatch guys It just one extra thing I charging everything

It's half my life is charging. Finding the things. Docking the things

So you have it down, it's charging, and you're going to grab it from the front, so you put your index finger and pull up

I noticed something interesting. If you look on the inside here, there's a hollow channel

and I'm guessing there's some sort of purpose for that from an audio perspective

create some space. So it's probably going to deliver some bass. That would be my guess

There's a power switch. That, I'm going to read that potentially as vibration

It's a guess for now. On the other side, you have little buttons for volume, plus minus, pretty self-explanatory

That's your look. Will? It's my look. This is my look. It's not bad. It's pretty good

I'm not closed off from my environment. It sounds like a whole room

You know when you would do like a surround sound demo and you're in a

rainforest and it's the birds and the trickle of the rain. You know I'm saying

the leaves and the wind. You're gonna need to plug in a traditional audio source

So let's see what type of cables they give you. Micro USB, that's gonna be

probably for your charge dock micro usb to mini jack this is for a phone oh i can use a

traditional wired connection interesting all right so that's cool all right you could use

it in a portable fashion even though it doesn't have bluetooth so we could connect this guy

right here they've also included a mini jack to mini jack connector so this one you would go to

your og into the transmitter box and then to your audio source

And this would be their optimal setting I'd imagine because this gives you your digital audio

Of course, for the purpose of this video, we can try out the old school, old fashioned

typical mini jack straight in There a Walkman in 2020 I need a phone with a mini jack Will do you have a mini jack on your phone No you have a Pixel Oh I just use my laptop

I'll use my laptop. Shall we play a tune? We probably should

It's tickling me. You know, it's a nice vibe, really. If I'm just relaxing

I'm just here working. Oh, it's vibrating

It's vibrating, yeah. You could turn the vibration off. Oh, I think there's three levels

Three levels. Yeah. Three levels to the vibration. Discovery. This is no vibration. Yeah

And then... This is mid. That's max

I think it lives beside your couch. If you're a guy like Will, for example

you know he's chilling, he's relaxing, he just has the run of the place

You want to eat macaroni and cheese? You eat macaroni and cheese

That's what I was looking for. I was looking to float around a little bit. That's the one I was looking for

I was looking to float around. You know, every so often
