T-shirt cannons are typically tiny little toys that shoot out free t-shirts to rabid fans, who want nothing more than a free t-shirt tagged with a silly phrase and drenched in crappy sponsors, even though they spent a hundred pounds to come to the game. This T-shirt cannon though? It's a freaking monster. It's the world's largest T-shirt cannon. Read More >>

Bowers & Wilkins makes incredible-sounding speakers. Fact. And while its original Panorama soundbar is no exception, the home theatre package was missing key connectivity in the way of HDMI inputs.
