Nice little lens, can't beat the price

Can't beat this lens for the price. It's nice that it's a genuine NIKKOR lens with Vibration Reduction. It's a bit slow in low light, but that's to be expected. It actually performs better than the comparable Canon models for their cameras, which is nice.
My Best Buy number: 535030251
What's great about it: NIKKOR, VR, long zoom
What's not so great: a bit slow in low light, but not unbearable

Puts you in the middle of the Red Rocks action

Posted by: JoshW41
from Wadsworth, OH
I've always wanted to experience Red Rocks, but haven't had the opportunity to yet, as I'm all the way across the country, but this Blu Ray puts you right in the middle of the venue, as well as close up to see the passion this band has when playing.
This is great for any Mumford and Sons fan, and anyone who is interested in live music on DVD/Blu-Ray, as this is one of the best.

Bought this as a gift for my parents, they love it
on June 6, 2013
Posted by: JoshW41
from Wadsworth, OH
I bought this as a gift for my parents to go with their 50" Insignia plasma TV that we got them last year. They were looking for something to improve their listening experience, and provide some depth that TV speakers just can't, and this does the trick. They love it, and use it every day.
What's great about it: significantly improves TV sound, MP3/AUX input
What's not so great: tiny little remote, easily lost

Their best album to date - Still my favorite
on June 6, 2013
Posted by: JoshW41
from Wadsworth, OH
I love DMB, and everything they've put out (with some exceptions..) but this is by far my favorite album. It's dark, and just well put together. The production and mastering is second to none. Listen to this through a good pair of headphones, and you won't be sorry.

Made the jump from AE2 - Glad I did, love these!
on May 24, 2013
Posted by: JoshW41
from Wadsworth, OH
How Often Used:Daily
I have been using the AE2's for a few weeks, but I realized I wanted a bit more noise blockage, so I decided to give these a go. One thing I did notice is that, since the drivers are a bit further from your ears, the sound is a bit deeper and more punchy, at least to my ears.
I wear these at work when I want to slip away into my own world, and get my stuff done. I'm going to try them at mowing the lawn this weekend, but I think they will work wonderfully for that, too.
Overall, I'd definitely give these a solid 4.5 stars. The only "downside" is the price point, which I'd say they're totally worth, but it's a lot of money to part with.
What's great about it: sound quality, noise cancellation
What's not so great: at $300, it's not the most affordable, Can't listen in passive mode

Great for when you need sound, but need to hear
on May 20, 2013
Posted by: JoshW41
from Wadsworth, OH
How Often Used:3-5 times a week
These things are great for when you need quality sound, but still need to hear what's going on around you. Running is a great example, but also if you're in the office and need to hear the phone ringing, or anything like that, these are wonderful.
I still prefer my AE2's for long listening sessions, but these are great, and deliver an awesome sound space, plus thunderous bass, without having to create a seal with your ear.
I highly recommend these for working out, or anything that doesn't require sound isolation.

In love with these headphones

How Often Used:Daily
I am simply in love with these headphones. I've had them for a month and a half now, and I use them every day. I only wish the bluetooth version was out when I decided on these.
They're not active noise canceling, but they block out enough noise that it doesn't matter.
I went through SEVERAL sets of headphones before finding out how amazing these were.

Excellent for home theater

These are my fronts, paired with a ProCenter1000, and 600's in the rear, plus a Definitive ProSub 600 and a MartinLogan Dynamo - I couldn't be happier with the way my system sounds. The sound space is incredible, and you can hear individual rain drops, strings being plucked, etc.
Absolutely worth it.

iPad mini features a beautiful 7.9" display, iSight® and FaceTime camera, the A5 chip, ultrafast wireless and up to 10 hours of battery life1. And over 275,000 apps2 on the App Store made for iPad work with iPad mini. So it's an iPad in every way, shape and slightly smaller form.

Every inch an iPad.

I had a full size iPad with Retina display, but I sold it on eBay to pick up the mini. It's so perfect, fits in one hand, has enough surface area for games, reading, surfing and working.
I'd highly recommend it if you're thinking of making the switch - it really is the perfect iPad, and the price is right.

Are they good for gaming?

They're good for anything you would use other headphones for. They have a stellar sound, and the noise cancellation is second to none.

Which one is the better:Mixr or Quietconfort 15

Hello friends, then seguinte.Sou is passionate about electronic music Mainly trance.Porem Also would like a phone que isolace the sound to much as a earphone.Me said the mixr and better than the Bose in terms of the beat but in isolation is Bose the best. If you buy an executive? await return! Would not it be a case of buying an executive? await return!
The MIXR are really the only Beats that I was really wowed by. They are LOUD, and pump a lot of music out into your ears. I went with the QC15, however, due to the acoustic noise canceling, as well as the wonderful Bose sound. I listen to some electronic music, and they have the right amount of thump, and sound great.

Then, there's times when I just want to block out the world and not hear anything, and the QC15's are great for that, too.

will the armband fit an iphone 5

Indeed it will, provided you get one of the newer/updated models. I bought the blue SIE2i's, and it fits just fine.

Where are the specifications ?

Specifications for the Bose AE2, such as Hz TDH and dB, Impedance??
It's best to just listen to them and be your own judge. I don't know the specs, but these sing sweet music in my ears.

Carrying Case?

Is there any way to get the carrying case (that comes with the OE2s) instead of the drawstring one that normally comes with the AE2?
According to Bose, these will not fit in the carrying case for the QC15, but if you were to try one, that would be the place to start.

Surprisingly, I'm happy with my little drawstring bag.

Can the AE2 audio headphones be used to play a digital piano?

Provided the piano has a 1/8" output jack, or you have an adapter, I don't see why not. They're great headphones, especially for piano music, IMO.

What are the audio specs?

What are the audio specs, like what is its sound sensitivity range? For example I have a pair of ifrogz heaphones that have a sound range of 20Hz-20Khz & its has 40mm speakers. What do these headphones have?
The way I understand it, Bose never releases that information because they say it sways judgement. I tend to agree. Sure, I like to see specs on things, but my ears don't lie - these sound amazing.

If the AE2 cable can work with the AE2i headphones, will the AE2i cable work with AE2 headphones?

Yes. In fact, when I bought my AE2's, I wanted them in white, and they were out of stock on the white AE2i, so I simply called Bose and asked if there was a cable with a mic for the AE2 in white, and $30 later, it was on it's way to me with free shipping.

I use them to talk on the phone all the time, and it works well.

How is the sound isolation?

I need know how is the sound isolation of this Bose.I think change my earphone for this bose,but first i need know de sound isolation kkk someone know?
The sound isolation is pretty good, for non-active noise canceling head phones. Once I put them on, I reach that balance of music and outside noise, where I can't hear anything except what's in the headphones, and it's really nice.

With an 8,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio and up to 250 cd/m² brightness, this Dell S2340M LED HD monitor displays crisp, brilliant visuals. The tilt function allows you to easily adjust the viewing angles to suit your preferences.
 

Why my two Dell S2340M monitors go blue intermitently when used on a Mac Mini server?

I have my 2011 Mac Mini Lion Server connected with mini DisplayPort to DVI and HDMI to DVI adapters to two Dell S2340M monitors I purchased at BestBuy in January 2013. Even if I'm using the Mac Mini the monitors suddenly go into a blue screen and then into sleep mode. It takes a while to "wake them up" and then go blue and sleep mode again. Is there a fix to this problem?
I've got a similar problem, and I've searched for answers. The only thing I've got from it, so far, is that Apple is just really not on top of it when it comes to dual displays.

It got so bad for a while there, I was ready to disconnect the 2nd monitor and go down to just 1.
