Big Speaker with Big Sound and Big Fun
on October 13, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
from Beavercreek, OH
The Sony GTK-XB90 is a big speaker that packs a big sound punch. Perfect for a party or karaoke, the strobe lights, led lights and infinity mirrors provide visual accompaniment to the thumping music.
The speaker is portable because it has a rechargeable battery that will give you up to 16 hours of play time. The Sony Music Center app allows you to control the music and the lighting and there is a mic input that will allow you to talk or sing along with the music.
This can also be party chained wirelessly with other GTK-XB90 speakers to expand the sound. Not only does the music sync between all of the speakers, but the lights sync as well.
It can be positioned upright or on its side, and has rubber feet on two sides to accomodate either position.
The sound is clear, smooth and loud but it's the ambiance that makes this speaker shine. It's a really cool speaker!

Beautiful little laptop
on October 12, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
from Beavercreek, OH
The Lenovo Yoga 920 laptop is beautifully designed and has all the right features. It weighs in at 3 lbs and is made with premium materials like aluminum casing and JBL speakers.
It has a watchband type hinge that allows you to open it to any degree that you want. It can be folded completely over to use as a tablet or propped up as a tent for viewing media. It has a smooth rotation with just the right amount of tension to hold it in any position.
The YOGA comes with an 8th generation Intel i7 processor for fast and agile processing. It has a 256 GB solid state drive for storage and it turns on and off incredibly fast. It also has a fingerprint reader for super quick logins. It runs Windows 10, complete with Cortana as your personal assistant. It's also a touchscreen which is a must for a 2-in-1 laptop.
It comes packaged with the Active Pen 2, for those that like the utility of a stylus. The screen has over 4000 levels of sensitivity with no noticeable lag so it feels like you're using a real pen, pencil or paintbrush.
Dolby Atmos gives you immersive sound. The two speakers are on the bottom of the laptop and they have good sound quality. There are two usb-c inputs on the left side and a usb 3.0 input on the right. Of course it has built-in wi-fi and bluetooth connectivity.
I'm not sure what more you could ask for in a laptop or tablet. Lenovo hit a home run with this one as far as I'm concerned. The case is prone to fingerprints if that's something that bothers you, but I think they pretty much all are.

Sooooo Good
on October 5, 2017
Posted by: The34Car

The BeoPlay H9 headphones by Bang & Olufsen have the best sound quality of any headphones I've ever used. I have found it difficult in the past to find headphones that deliver deep bass, crisp treble and clear midtones all in one package, but these do the job perfectly. This brand is renowned for their sound quality and they kept the tradition alive with the H9's.
They weigh in at a light 10 ounces and use premium materials including leather and aluminum. The ear cups fit my ears perfectly without creating an uncomfortable suction feeling. The active noise cancelling can be enabled or disabled depending on your preference.
There are slick touch controls on the outside of the right ear cup. By tapping or swiping in different directions, you can control most tasks. You can also download the BeoPlay app on ios or android and use your phone to control the music. As cool as the touch controls on the headphones are, my preference is to use the app on my phone if I have it with me.
These can be used wired with included headphone jack or wireless via Bluetooth connection. Mine synced right away with my phone and came charged right out of the box for immediate playability. They come with a cloth pouch for storage.
I found myself completely immersed in the music while wearing these headphones; such an enjoyable experience that I haven't had with headphones in a while. I listen to everything from rap to classical and they all sound terrific.
One final note: if you look at the headphones from the side, they look like a 45 record on a turntable. Such a nice aesthetic touch.

Exceeded My Expectations
on September 30, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
from Beavercreek, OH
The Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 1060 1080p 3LCD Projector was even better than I expected. It has a brilliantl 1080p HD picture on a massive scale. I have it set up in a room about 13 feet away from the wall it is projecting upon. The setup gives me a screen size of roughly 15 feet wide by 5 feet tall. According to my calculations, that is a screen size of around 190 inches. Yes, one hundred ninety inches! That blows away my 55-inch tv. The picture is every bit as bright and clear too. It can be made bigger or smaller depending on where you put it too. It has the incredible ability to straighten the picture and make it perfectly rectangular, even if the projector is slightly turned. It hooks up to many different streaming machines to show your favorite pictures/movies/shows in gigantic scale. Mine is hooked up to my Xbox One with a simple HDMI connection. It is portable so I plan on taking it onto the back patio for some nighttime outdoor movie fun with the kids and we’re also going to take it camping. It has a speaker built in so you don’t need anything else to play your shows, but the speaker isn’t the greatest so I would recommend using an external speaker to really make it an incredible theater-like experience. I am in love with this product and everyone that's seen it is completely impressed by it.

It Really Works!
on September 24, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
from Beavercreek, OH
The same day that my Bissell Pet Stain Eraser Handheld Deep Cleaner arrived, my dog was kind enough to give me a reason to use it. My dog has a sensitive stomach and if she eats anything other than her dog food she gets sick and has really gross stool. The Bissell got put to the test right out of the box without charging it first and it didn't disappoint. It was super easy to use. Just put in the provided cleaning solution (no mixing necessary), turn it on, push a button to spray the stain then suction it away. Pretreating is recommended for heavy stains like the one I dealt with. My carpet is 11 years old, builder grade, no stain repellent on it. No problem for the Pet Stain Eraser. The battery will allow the Bissell to operate for about five minutes before it needs to be recharged. Plenty of time to get your stain out. It has a scrubbing brush on the bottom that helps get the stain out. The brush is removable for cleaning. It comes with a charging cord and two bottles of pet stain removal solution.
Even though it is marketed as a pet stain removal tool, it is good for any kind of stain and can be used on carpets, rugs, furniture, cars, etc. Super handy item that I highly recommend.

Awesome Keyboard with Nice New Features
on September 22, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
from Beavercreek, OH
The new Logitech Craft keyboard is a super keyboard for the creative user. Anyone who utilizes apps such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Microsoft Excel and Word (to name a few) will really enjoy the added utility, style and function of this keyboard.
The feature that stands out the most with this keyboard is the dial at the top left. They call it the “crown” and depending on which application you are working with, it has different built-in functions. For example, if you’re using Adobe Illustrator, you can use it to manipulate a whole host of functions from changing stroke weight to zooming in and out to undoing and redoing. It's all done by touching, pressing and/or rotating the wheel. If you are a novice, this keyboard would be a great tool to help you get started with complicated software such as the Adobe suite of apps. For the seasoned user, it will take some getting used to as far as teaching yourself a new way to do things. Basically, it gives the user the ability to utilize both hands while working to speed things along.
The build quality seems to be excellent. It is a combination of aluminum and plastic and feels really sturdy. It is quite weighty for a keyboard, weighing in at over two pounds. It is 17 inches long and has a full number pad on the right side. The keys are backlit when you have your hands nearby, making low light typing much easier. They feel fantastic to type on. They sound good and have just the right amount of bounce back when you press them. I’m almost giddy typing on them.
To make full use of the features, there is a free download from their website that downloaded and installed super quickly. The app allows you to use the custom crown features with the select apps that you have installed on your rig. The Craft is a wireless keyboard which can connect to your pc via Bluetooth or through the included Logitech unifying dongle. The keyboard is supposed to last a week before needing to be recharged although I can’t confirm that because I haven’t had mine that long. Also, the keyboard and accompanying software download can be used on either a Windows pc or MacOS.
The Craft keyboard is low profile. The back is raised ever so slightly and the front is pretty much unraised. The low profile is good unless you have a desk with a keyboard tray that has a built-in (for lack of a better word) “wrist rester.” With the Logitech Craft keyboard, a workstation with a “wrist rester” causes the keyboard to be too low and awkward to use. I haven’t found a good solution to this problem as of yet. I’ve tried setting the keyboard on top of the box that it came in, but that raises it up a bit too high. Optimally it needs to be raised up about a half inch, and the box raises it up 13/16 of an inch. It’s comfortable if I place it on top of my desk, but then my mouse is still in the desk’s keyboard tray and that is awkward as well, plus I like to have room on my desk to write and now the keyboard is there. I suppose that modern workspaces mostly don’t use the hidden keyboard tray in favor of a more minimalist look. This keyboard is definitely made for that style. It is meant to sit atop the desk, not below. And why not? It is nice to look at!
All in all, even if you don’t use any of the apps that this keyboard is meant to enhance, it is still worth the purchase. I like it that much! The style, feel and function are all first rate. I am loving mine and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Needs Improvement
on August 8, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
Being wire free has its advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that it needs to be charged every few days so you'll have to move it to charge it. The advantage is obvious, in that you can place it just about anywhere without having to worry about cords. It is truly wire free; no plug, no physical connections of any kind.
You can access the picture from your smartphone through the Logi Circle app. The live view is very clear but it takes a long time to bring up the live view. The recorded pictures are lacking however. The camera can begin recording when it senses motion. The problem is that it is in battery saving mode when it isn't in live view (and I haven't figured out how to change that or if it would be wise to do so because of battery drain) and thus the indoor picture is very dark. So much so that you can't make out what's in the picture.
You can also use it as an intercom, so you can say hi to your pet or tell an intruder to get out.
Hopefully the next iteration of this product will make improvements on an interesting idea.

Neat Concept But Lacking In Sound Quality
on July 19, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
I was excited to try out the LG - TONE Studio HBS-W120 Wireless In-Ear Headphones and I ended up liking them but not loving them.
First what I don't like. The sound is hollow and tinny. If you've ever used the free headphones on an airplane to watch an airplane movie, they kind of sound like that. Like the sound is coming from the other end of a tube or something. There is absolutely no bass to speak of, and the haptic feedback (vibration during bass moments) would be nice if combined with actual bass, but by itself doesn't do the trick.
Another thing I wasn't crazy about, and it is admittedly a minor thing, is that in order to change from ear buds to outward play or vice versa, you have to flip a switch on the unit. I wish that if you extended the ear bud cables it would automatically switch to ear bud mode and if you retract the ear bud cables completely, it would switch back to outward play.
As for the what I like, it is a new and interesting concept for me to be both a speaker and an ear bud in one product. I like things that are multifunctional.
Wearing it around my neck is not uncomfortable at all. It feels like a necklace in the back of my neck and I don't notice it in the front. It does a good job of separating channels to give a surround sound effect. Also, what is loud to my ears while wearing it is not so loud to others around me. They can still hear it, but the sound is more immersive to the person wearing this.
I can see these as being a good fit for someone that's hard of hearing for watching movies or t.v. by themselves or for those that are in an area that can't have loud sound from speakers but still want a theater type experience.
Overall, these miss the mark of having theater quality sound (or even good headphone quality sound), but they can be useful in certain instances.

Big Box, Loud Clean Sound, Lacking Bass
on June 27, 2017
Posted by: The34Car
The Nyne - X-Series Rock Portable Bluetooth Speaker is a pretty good portable speaker. It is big in size; a throwback to the days of carrying a boombox on your shoulder. It has five speakers, all facing forward; two mid range, two tweeters and a subwoofer. The subwoofer doesn't really get the job done though, as the bass is a bit lacking. Maybe this is called the Rock because it sounds better playing rock music than it does hip hop or blues. I tried out different genres on the Rock and some sounded better than others. For instance, White Stripes 7 Nation Army sounded flat while Bjork's All Is Full Of Love sounded brilliant. Spanish guitar sounded great; Ice Cube needed some heftier bass.
The size of the Nyne Rock speaker is big. It is almost two feet long and weighs in at 10 lbs. To me, that's borderline too big. You won't lose this sucker, that's for sure. It has a nice rubberized plastic exterior that should help absorb some shock when lugging it around and plopping it down on pavement or pavers. The speakers are protected by a hard plastic or metal mesh. The IPX-3 rating means that the unit can withstand water spray up to 60 degrees from the top of the device, so it should be okay around a pool.
The Nyne Rock can be paired easily to a device either through Bluetooth 4.0 or NFC. With the NFC pairing, you just set your phone on the speaker to connect it. Super easy and convenient. It also has a built-in microphone so you can take calls with it. It sounds pretty good to the receiver, similar to the sound of a speakerphone.
It has a hidden finger hold to carry it around. I wish the hole was a little deeper so I could get my fingers in a little farther for a more secure grip, but it is sufficient as is.
One last feature is that you can hook together several units to play simultaneously. You can't hook together just any speakers with it though; I believe they all have to be Nyne X-Series Rock speakers. I guess this could be useful if you need some really loud sound in multiple directions.
All in all, this is a pretty good outdoor bluetooth speaker. I would pick something else for an indoor speaker, but for outdoor use it is a pretty good unit. Long range connectivity, water resistance, 65 W of power and a fairly rugged design are all pluses. Large, heavy size and only moderate bass are the negatives.
Also, please note that this speaker is not the kind that looks like a rock...

Is this a good laptop for a college student?

This would make an excellent laptop for a college student, but may be something that someone might want to steal on campus so beware. The only negative is that it's not a touchscreen. If that doesn't bother you, then I would recommend it.
