Monster livened up CES with a string of live music performances at its booth.

I have no idea what this booth was all about, but it certainly was creepy.

If your taste in short-throw, DLP laser-lit projectors runs to the more...um...decorative, Changhong can fill the bill with this more colorful version, also 2K.

Changhong showed this 2K short throw, DLP laser projector with a decidedly sci-fi look.

Changhong had a wide assortment of sets, including a surprising range of OLEDs.

Changhong is a name likely unfamiliar to most readers, though they’ve been showing up at CES for the past few years.

RIVA Audio has a great back story. Like a terrific, rock-and-roll, party-all-night back story. And the company’s WAND (Wireless Audio Network Design) series of speakers have gotten solid reviews for terrific sound design. (But don’t take my word for it. Read Sound & Vision editor-in-chief Rob Sabin’s full WAND review here. ) However the initial WAND series was limited to just two products, the Arena and Festival. This is great if you wanted to scatter desktop speakers around your home, but not so great if you wanted to enjoy great sounding tunes using your own speakers. RIVA has heard your cries and come to your aid! Meet the CENTRAL!

Lots of products shown at CES work with either Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, or Apple HomeKit, but it is a rarefied few that work with all of them. Let alone come in the form factor of an in-wall light switch and include an on-board microphone and speaker for full-on Amazon Alexa control and feedback. This distinct privilege resides with iDevices Instinct Wi-Fi enabled lighting dimmer.

Walking through South Hall of the LVCC I saw a booth that was covered in posters proclaiming the need to Boycott Psychasec. The posters were then covered in graffiti. Around the front of the booth were skimpily clad, incredibly lifelike male and female mannequins. Total WTF.

Sony’s premier video processor for 2018 may be the X1 Extreme, but there’s something even better in Sony’s lab.

Sony’s newest 4K, HDR, LCD-LED flat panel display is the 85-inch X900F.

We see a lot of odd tech at CES, but here’s something we scribes, and others who spend hours a day at our desks, can appreciate.

VEWD has unveiled a new smart TV platform it says is smarter than others.

Sennheiser has always been known for exceptional sound quality in their headphone lineup, and now they’re expanding into new territory with the new over-ear HD 820 with a closed-back design.

Bang & Olufsen had a small, intimate showing of their latest ideas, projects and products at CES.  A new seasonal color palette and hints about Google Assistant and other voice assistant products were showcased, but right here, right now are the new H8i and H9i headphones.
