OLATHE – September 04, 2026 -- Garmin has launched the JL Audio M200 series, a new lineup of marine speakers and subwoofers priced from $199.99 to $349.99, expanding its M-series audio lineup for boaters.

The speakers use a 1-inch edge-driven silk dome tweeter with a neodymium magnet, handling up to 60 watts RMS for smooth, warm sound. The subwoofer features an injection molded polypropylene cone and rubber surround, delivering 250-watts RMS power handling for deep bass with minimal distortion.

BERLIN -- September 01, 2026 -- Yarbo will show off the finished version of its M Series yard robot at IFA 2026, running September 4 to 8 in Berlin, marking the machine's move from a CES prototype to a product homeowners can actually buy. The compact, modular robot handles mowing, snow clearing and leaf collection on standard residential yards, complementing the larger Y Series built for bigger properties. Visitors can see the M Series firsthand at two exhibition spaces, indoors and outdoors, during the show.

Compact Chassis Handles Slopes, Steps and Wet Grass

The M Series trims down Yarbo's footprint compared with earlier models, a design choice the company said lowers the barrier to yard automation for smaller properties. Its tracked chassis grips wet grass, dirt, stone pavers and mixed surfaces, and the robot can climb slopes up to roughly 35 degrees, or a 70% grade, and step over edges around 2 inches high.
