Works well with my Yamaha AVR Auto-Calibration Mic
on May 9, 2015
Posted by: gamer123
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this to use with my Yamaha Receiver's built in auto-calibration (YPAO). I attached the mic to the tripod and placed it on my bed at ear level height (I listen/watch TV/movies lying in bed). This tripod is easy to use and adjust in term of height and angle, though the adjustable legs could click into fixed positions to make things easier. Product seems durable enough for my use and should also work with a camera or any light object with these 1/4" 20 TPI connections.

This Sony Core Series SSCS8 2-way center-channel speaker features a 4" cellular-reinforced, foamed-mica woofer and two 1" polyester wide-dispersion super tweeters to deliver detailed cross-spectrum sound.

Best Speakers I've ever owned for HT use
on January 24, 2015
Posted by: gamer123
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm using these speakers as an upgrade to the tiny satellite speakers found in my Yamaha Home Theater System YHT-399UBL. I also got the Sony Core bookshelf speakers and together they now make up the front left, center, and right of my 5.1 speaker setup (other speakers are still the Yamaha supplied ones).
The sound quality from these speakers is excellent for the money, size, and for my purposes (watching BD movies, Netflix streaming, console gaming, and some HD cable TV watching). Music also sounds great, though I don't use it much for that (unless you count music in movies and games).
One thing worth mentioning is right now the sub woofer I'm using is not able to compete with these speakers too well and so the low end seems to be lacking vs. the mid range and high end. That's not a fault of these speakers, just the sub woofer's limitations (50 watts RMS, 8-inch driver). So, I'll need to upgrade the sub woofer so that the low end can match the great mid range and high end these Sony Cores can provide. For that, I'm looking at the Dayton Audio SUB-1200, which sells for around $125 and has 120 watts RMS and a long throw 12-inch driver.

Great headphones for the price
on October 31, 2014
Posted by: gamer123
Verified Purchase:Yes
For the money, these were the best earbud headphones I could get. I used the ConsumerReports.org site to verify that. There was a better sounding option for more money, but it did not use the regular 3.5 mm jack and so it's compatibility with my PS4 controller and Samsung GS4 Smartphone was questionable (review said it worked with some Apple devices and had 4 connectors instead of the usual 3).

Your knuckles turn white as you grip the wheel and push the pedal to the floor. You swerve around the cars that get in your way, dodging left and right, only inches from causing a fiery wreck each time. Your heart pounds and you can feel the adrenaline coursing through your entire body as you continue to pick up speed. Driving faster than you ever have before, you still wonder if your speed will be enough in this pursuit, because you're not running toward anything — you're running away. You are the Most Wanted.Need for Speed: Most Wanted sends you racing through a no-rules world at full speed as you try to outrun the cops, outdrive your friends and outsmart your rivals. Hit jumps and shortcuts, power down and slide out as you try to shake a relentless police force on your tail. Hook up with friends and jump into nonstop action with a playlist of competitive events where you can race and battle to earn points and speed to the top of the leaderboards. Get behind the wheel of two of the world's hottest cars, the Maserati Gran Turismo MC Stradale and the 2012 Porsche 911 Carerra S, with all of the latest performance modifications, including a racing engine and brakes, an optimized aerodynamic body, Nitrous Burn and more. Can you survive as the Most Wanted?

Immerse yourself in room-filling sound with these Sony Core Series SSCS5 bookshelf speakers, which feature 5" woofers and 3/4" and 1" tweeters for precise instrument and vocal reproduction and dynamic acoustic depth.
 

Will these speakers work as front left and right on a 5.1 stereo receiver?

Yes, and if you plan on doing that be sure to pick up the Sony Core Center Speaker too if you have a 5.1 speaker setup. That's what I did and so now the front left, center, and right speakers are the Sony Cores in my Yamaha 5.1 Home Theater System (YHT-399UBL).

The reason you want the center and front left/right speakers to match is that with 5.1 or 7.1 digital surround sound when sound effects transition in the front from left/right/center, you want the transitions to be smooth and without one speaker sounding noticeably different from another.

Do these speakers have an auxillary jack?

Are these equipped with an auxillary jack to plug straight into a cd player?
they only have positive and negative speaker terminals if that's what your asking, no other connections whatsoever
