UE Boom 2

via Ultimateears.com

We have highlighted the UE Boom before, mostly because we can't recommend them highly enough. This indoor/outdoor speaker can take a massive beating, and keep on pumping out the beats. Waterproof in 1 m of water for up to 30 mins, this party starter can be left out in the rain, have drinks spilled on it, and take a windy day on the beach in stride. If you are planing on being outside, and jamming is on the agenda, the UE Boom is the way to go, hands down. What is even cooler is that you can pair up to 50 of these tubular audio blasters together, so you can pipe the party music throughout what ever beach, mountain, or lake house you are occupying during your vacation.

Available on UltimateEars.com for $100

Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones

These headphone are a God-send for the frequent traveller. The compact size compared to their over-ear counterparts, the premium quality noise cancelling (16 hours worth on one charge), and audio quality you can expect from Bose makes them well worth the price point. So do yourself a favor; stop allowing the baby in 15B to ruin the Bond movie during your flight and get a pair of these bad boys.
