Are smartwatches the future or a fad? The balance is leaning towards the first option, as traditional watch providers are also entering the smart watch market.

And if the CEO of TAG Heuer says that traditional mechanical watches are a thing of the past because they have no added value for younger users, smart watches are here to stay.

The Sennheiser Orpheus HE90 from 1991 hold a very special place in the hearts of audiophiles. Headphones for 16,000 euros, for which 300 lucky customers received a tube amplifier made especially for these headphones, received worthy successors 24 years later.
