When it comes about the gifts, it’s really hard to please the music geek. The Amazon top-rated mic turns to have a lower impedance than needed, the preamp is missing the necessary connection, the headphones lack the needed soundstage. Here comes the first advice — DON’T BUY PROFESSIONAL MUSIC EQUIPMENT that can turn out to be a waste of money.
Instead, choose something handy and practical. For instance, any music geek would appreciate a cool big TV as an addition to his or her sound system. The best value options are listed at HelpToChoose.com.
Meanwhile, there are plenty of choices to surprise the music lover while not spending a fortune. Below is a list of the low-to-middle budget gadgets that will definitely make the audiophile’s day.
No Knots Earphones Cable
However ethereal-bound a true musician might be, he or she will definitely approve of the small things that make life easier and music listening more pleasant. This device will keep the phones ready-to-go at all times.
Kitchen Utensils Painted as Guitar Necks
Here’s a great thematic option for music geeks that love (or have to) cook. Improvising on your kitchen spatula is purely geeky and is a lot of fun too!
Guitar on-Wall Holder
Having a guitar lying on the sofa or a table or even standing on the floor leads to falls and bumps. Placing it in the holder will preserve the instrument for longer.
Voice Control for Home Audio System
Managing all your gear at once and turning on your favourite song by a few words is awesome… and appreciated by any music geek.
Speaker with the Changing Light
This cool gadget changes the light according to the tone and rhythm of the sound, creating a unique atmosphere. A great device for any party.
USB Flash Drive Shaped as a Mix Tape
Surprising everyone claiming you can derive the music out of it and doing it! Yeah, that’s a funny thing. Remember to check the size of the USB contact – the micro-USB might not fit all the equipment.
A Bag for your Notes
A must-have for any musician and the music student. Having your notes in order in one place will spare the music geek time before going out.
Thematic Plug-In Key Holder
All your keys will be in their place with the cool retro-style key holder imitating a guitar amp panel. The keys are plucked (or plugged) in and held ready for use.
Wireless Headphones
A great gift for those who love to dance. No more wire to limit the distance and the dance figures. And you can go make yourself a cup of tea – without turning off the music.
Waterproof Speaker for Shower
It can become another inspiration source for those who love to sing while bathing. Such a speaker is also great to take outside without fear of getting wet in the rain.
Wine Glasses with the Music Scale
The exquisite gift for subtle music lovers. Fill them with wine to a certain scale to hear a corresponding musical note.
