The new ABox Mk 2


 The ABox has got a face lift.

First created back in 2006, the ABox has been a stalwart of the more specialised E-Stim units in our range. Its been growing in popularity giving people the ability to combine music with E-Stim. Now we have the ABox Mk2.

The ABox was never designed as a 'StereoStim' unit, despite the fact many people try to label it as such. The ABox was always designed to provide sensation from real music, from music and voices that you enjoyed listening too. StereoStim tracks tend to be buzzes and bleeps that feel ok, but never really for us allowed audio play to expand beyond the lab of some mad scientist type huddling behind an oscilloscope.

What have we changed?

The Mk2 is smaller, lighter, based in the same case as our E-Stim Remote and the ElectroHelix. All the inputs have been moved to the top panel together with the power switch and input selector, and the front panel features an updated LED display and the analogue control for the microphone sensitivity and the output level control.

The built in microphone has been moved and the amplifier has been upgraded so it is now more sensitive - the microphone is now facing up between the two controls.

One thing we haven't changed is the price, the new ABox Mk2 is still only £135, and that is including a lifetime guarantee.

ABox Customer Review

We do have an online system for both store reviews and product reviews, but a customer was good enough to post us a more extensive review of his ABox, and gave us permission to publish it. Here it is in it's entirety. 

Good morning,

Usual praises, delivery speed / well packed / innofensive brown box - love the packing of the unit itself and the completeness of the contents of the box.

I don't usually write back once i've bought something, things are rarely 'that' good and very rarely outstanding however, on this occasion I 'felt' it warranted it. Got the Abox from the PostOffice on Sunday and had a play and a tinker with the bits and bobs - yeah ... i've used TENS before, this will be just like that ... i mean how much more sensitive can it be with the same 9V battery?
O M W :-D

I wish i'd bitten the bullet and bought one of these units years ago, it's a whole new level of fun, whether it's Microphone based or audio input based - just wow. I'm lucky enough to have a decent stereo in the car, it's about 1500WRMS with a 10" sealed box subwoofer and what i wasn't prepared for ( at ALL ) was the effect that has on an audio driven source, clean powerful sound really does do something doesn't it :)  Tried again on the way to work this morning in my other car, cattle grids are a hoot as are potholes  when you're in something light, cheap and french that rattles like hell. Even ordering McDonalds with the microphone wound right up was a hoot. Or just walking about knocking into stuff sets it off nicely .... even on low output levels, that sound driven output really does pack quite a kick with a suitably strong input volume / SQ .... i can only imagine what that would do when driven by nightclub levels of sound . Of course, none of this is new to you ...... new. favourite. toy for me.

Of course, everyone has different musical tastes / requirements .... but if you have something there that is capable of producing low frequency bass .... try some of these ;-)

I quite like electronic music, handily, stuff with bass sweeps and sine sweeps ;-)

I'm going to 'work from home' for a few days this week and have a fresh dig back through my music collection.


Anyone who has a TENS driven unit and thinks they don't need anything else quite frankly needs a slap about the chops, they're missing out!!!   
Cheers again,
PD
