We have to say we never seen this one coming. The BassJump from Twelve South whose Mac accessory products range from a laptop stand to surface pad is a truly one-of-a-kind USB subwoofer. Yes, that's right. Subwoofer. And it takes away one precise USB port from your MacBook. It's supposed to complement the thin, bass-less speakers on your laptop. Custom software written specifically for Mac makes calculations to add mid- and low-frequencies, and as a result, blends two different audio sources: MacBook built-in speakers and BassJump subwoofer. The same software also throws in two old-school style VU meters to add some visual experience, and lets you customize sound based the the music genres. Most importantly, it has a one-touch power button so you can always turn on the BassJump at an instant. As unique and creative the BassJump is, we aren't exactly sure how exciting Mac folks will be when they see the $79.99 price tag.
