2015-11-06
welcome to the evolution of the set of tour this is a series where I set up to find the best accessory is the coolest speakers perfect colors and ultimately construct them into your dream desk so what's up guys Jonathan here and a death setup is only as good as the desk itself this is the Alex from IKEA which is super clean simple and is the perfect building block for the white and gold theme I wanted to put together it features twin drawers for keeping the clutter off your desk and then a really sweet cable management system to keep those cables and wires tucked away now off to the side I went with a four section shelving unit which by itself looks simple but when filled up it really helps complete the look of the setup on top is a really cool LED desk light from anchor which features four modes five dimming levels and a USB output which in this case we have charged in an iPad which is then resting on a gol de la go m to smartphone and tablet stand next to that is a super attractive gold Pixma mg 7720 from Canon who I partner with the kick off what I think will be one of my favorite series ever this thing scans it copies it features NFC and the 3.5 inch touchscreen is awesome and makes navigation super simple and seamless what really sets it apart though is its wireless capabilities and the fact that you really don't even need a computer to print off of it you can access Dropbox or Google Drive directly from the printer or print straight off your iPhone or iPad with air print this also works with Google Cloud Print which will link to down below and really just about any modern piece of tech you own now for the speakers these are the polk audio hampton am 65 10 a's the Whiteface pair with a dark brown frame and wood sides give off this super-sick vintage look and the volume control is rad - you can visually see the levels and those LED light numbers almost make it feel like there should be some old-school vinyl record scratching in the background and on top of being USB there also Bluetooth compatible which make these not only one of the best looking speakers under 250 bucks but also one of the best sounding and most versatile so the instant blue announced the white out Yeti I was like this is the microphone for the desk it's always been one of the best USB mics available with triple capsules multiple polar patterns great sound quality but now that it comes in why it's the perfect complement to a setup like this now as far as those headphones go these are the bose QX 25s and it's almost like they were designed for this setup the combination of the white and tan looks great but then the silver on the ear cuffs take it over the top matching perfectly with the aluminum of the 5k iMac these are sitting on top of a just mobile headphone stand which are featured in an episode of Tech hundred-fifty the only difference here being that it comes in a gold finish was perfectly complements the gold a logo mousepad as far as what's on top of that mousepad this is Microsoft's Ark touch mouse which may have inadvertently become one of my favorite mice it's different but it works surprisingly well and it's ergonomically sound now behind that is a five port 36 watt USB charger from truffle which looks great next to the wood on those pulk speakers what I love about this though is the build quality it's got some weight to it and that's important because it's not going to be sliding around or easily get bumped off your desk now with the iMac I wanted to add a bit of extra functionality so what it's sitting on is the I 360 from Rain design it's essentially a turntable for your iMac that works on both the 24 and 27 inch models and allows you to easily rotate your iMac whether you're trying to reach the back or just share your screen with someone else there is also a 7 4 port USB hub that attaches to the back yo Mac and then wraps around to blend in perfectly and give you 4 USB 3 ports right on the front of your iMac besides not that just about wraps up the pilot episode of the dream guys hopefully enjoyed it if you did you want to see more episodes make sure to smash that like button and show your support if you guys have any questions comments or suggestions for future setups definitely drop me a line down below and you probably want to subscribe not only so you don't miss future episodes but also because I'm giving this entire setup away the 5p iMac the printer the speakers absolutely everything details on how to win are below this is Jonathan with TLD and I will catch you guys later you
