Good quality speakers for the "on sale" price.

I purchased a pair of these speakers when they were on sale for $129.99 to replace a smaller set (3" woofers) of similar speakers I was using with my TV. Build quality seems solid and the finish on the cabinets is an attractive wood grained, gloss black. I tested the speakers using a variety of music and was surprised at how much low end these put out. Volume was another pleasant surprise as these speakers could easily fill a good sized room with sound. Plenty of input options, the bluetooth connection was easy to set up with my iPhone and works from a good distance. The remote control is also a nice touch.
I would have rated these speakers at 5 stars except for one small point. The addition of an "auto standby mode" (speakers go into low power mode when not receiving a signal) would have been a nice addition. This was likely a price point decision and is certainly not a deal breaker by any means.
Overall, I was very pleased and I decided to purchased a second pair (at the sale price) for use with a small, mobile recording rig I keep at my vacation home.

Good product, reasonable price.

I purchased a Mac Mini a few months back and needed a CD/DVD-R drive, but didn't want to pay Apple prices. A quick look at a few reviews and I noted that the LG Ultra Slim SP80NB60 ranked pretty high. I purchased the drive at my local BestBuy and shortly thereafter, I was burning CD's. I would have rated the drive 5 stars except for it's tray design. It feels a bit flimsy when inserting a CD. I'm sure that part of this is it's ultra slim design, so an easy "fix" is to support the tray with one hand as you load the CD with the other - Problem solved.

Will these speakers power the turntabe

Depends on the turntable. Most older style turntables put out a very low level signal level which requires a pre-amp to boost the signal to an acceptable "line level" like a cassette deck or CD player.

How much speaker wire is included?

About 6 feet. If you need more space between the speakers, you can use any standard speaker wire cut to your preferred length. Avoid the thicker style wire as the terminals were designed to accept a medium gauge wire.

Does this drive work with MacBook Pro Retina Display?

It works with my 2010 MacBook and 2012 Mac Mini, so I would assume yes (retina makes no difference, far as I know.)

1. Is this compatible with macbook and windows 10? 2. How do you install? Is there software? If there is software and macbook DOES NOT have an internal drive, do I use this external drive to install cd?

Not sure about Windows 10 compatibility (the drive comes with some included Windows software), but it worked out of the box and without installing drivers on my 2010 MacBook and 2012 Mac Mini.

Does this drive work with MacBook Pro Retina Display?

It works fine with my 2012 Mac Mini and my 2010 MacBook Pro (non retina). Chances are, it will work with any Mac made in the last 5 - 6 years (possibly older ones too).
