Good range of sound
on December 11, 2009
Posted by: KickItToThaCurb

Polk makes an okay subwoofer but it can be lacking somewhat on the power side. i enjoyed watching a movie with it but when you need it for some music, it doesn't always deliver like you wish it would. I can see this being worth it if it was maybe $50 less but overall i would still receommend it for overall use. It really makes up for the power with the range of sound. It can hit like an 8" and drop low like a 15". Its nice and compact too. If you look at some of the other subs with this size, they are in bigger enclosures. i would give it a 7.5/10.
What's great about it: clarity is terrific
What's not so great: kind of expensive for somewhat lack of power
I would recommend this to a friend!

The BEST Over-The-Ear headphones
on December 3, 2009
Posted by: KickItToThaCurb
from Nebraska
These are by far, superior to any headphones i have ever used. The sound is so detailed. You may be listening to what you thought was an incredble song, when in reality, you are missing so many notes when switching to these. It's almost a Home Theatre System on the go!!! If you are hesitant on the price, try them out. They will not disappoint.
What's great about it: Sound is incredible
What's not so great: skeptical on the folding design, seems like it might break

Very Good Sound

These earbuds have fantastic sound. For the price you pay, you are getting sound that can be compared to some $200 earbuds. I will say they can sometime get a little uncomfortable when wearing them for an extended period of time. However, they are worth it for the price. Easily. ***RECOMMED***
What's great about it: Extremely good sound compared to all others in price range.
What's not so great: somehwhat uncomfortable

This movie completely went "UP" and beyond my expectations. I originally bought the movie to test my new calibration. After figuring out why the movie had 4 dics included, I finally popped it in. I would certainly recommend this to anyone looking for a great overall movie. I don't have kids, and i thought this movie kept my attention. GREAT JOB PIXAR.
What's great about it: The story keeps you interested from start to finish. Unbelievable picture quality
What's not so great: None

THE SERVICE IS WORTH IT.

This is probably one of the best services you can add on to a new television. If you are buying a plasma, this services gets even better for you. Obviously the first thing you are going to notice is the visual improvement just by the quality of the colors. But something most people do not notice is the power consumption. By purchasing this service, you are not only cutting down the cost to run those gigantic beauties, but you are also extending the life of your product. The really do cut down on that electric bill. This is something i would receommend for any television. Yes the price seems kind of high but remember, those manufacturers are not making those settings to fit your room, they are making them to look better than the television next to it on the floor. Its your job to bring out its true quality once you find the best spot for it. ***RECOMMEND***
What's great about it: Picture improvement, energy usage.
What's not so great: nothing

This adapter requires absolutely no effort to set up. As long as you know to go to the menu in your PS3 to reconnect a bluetooth remote, you have virtually no setup issues. Good add on especially if you use your PS3 for Blu Rays. Kinda pricey but if you think about it, what other devices read IR and turn it into Bluetooth.
What's great about it: Commands all buttons for the PS3 remote, even R3 and L3
What's not so great: its kind of high on the price side, but it does convert IR to Bluetooth.

This band brings more styles of music to the table than anyone i can think of. They remind you of a 3OH!3 mixed with Underoath. The breakdowns are terrific. Listen if you haven't already!
What's great about it: Energy, styles of music packed in
What's not so great: Very spastic, sometimes changes style too abrubptly.

You can tell this is Hoobastank

When you listen to this, it can somewhat remind you of some older kind of rock. But it's really good. Guitar solo's are pretty sweet.
What's great about it: If you like the old Hoobastank, you can still hear some of that here.
What's not so great: Some songs sound alike in some ways.

When you first listen to it, you'll try to find at least one song with at least a little double bass or some punk scream, but, there really doesn't seem to be much, if any. Even though its a lot more easy listening, you will still enjoy it. Great voice and lyrics for this music. NICE!
What's great about it: Completely different from their old stuff. Yet, still great to listen to!
What's not so great: I still like their old stuff so its kind of a bummer in the same sense.

I didn't find anything good about this at all. The so called "security software" that is preloaded does not do justice for it at all.
What's great about it: HAHA. Wrong question for this one.
What's not so great: Overall. Terrible
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

If a computer is listed as "sold out online," how do I get on a list to purchase when it becomes available again?

There is no list to purchase online. If you wish to go to a store however, you can sometimes order a product to be sent to you or the store once it is available for purchase again. (Sometimes the reason it is sold out online may be that the warehouse that Best Buy.com uses could be out of stock.

Is it possible to customize the Macbook Air through Best Buy?

I want to purchase the 11.6 inch Macbook Air but I would like to upgrade the processor to 1.6 GHz and the RAM to 4GB. These extra features are offered on Apple's website.
There are going to be 3 pre-built models that you can choose from as well as older models (for now). But to answer your question, you cannot customize each individual product.

What DirectConnect Kit for Ipod Hook-up works for an 05 Infinity

I have an Ipod Nano and I am trying to avoid using one of the FM Transmitters. Is there one that works well for the 2005 Infinity G35?
The Griffin Technology transmitters work very well. I listen to music with various ranges of sound and they produce a great signal to keep the sound quality good.

I purchased a Samsung 19' TV. The sound is not very good. Is there some device I can purchase to improve and increase the sound.

For a 19", you are going to have a hard time finding anything that isn't bigger than the television itself to increase the quality of the sound. Normally, those televisions aren't built with speakers that are needed for large sound output. Most of the time you are within 10 feet of the display. A soundbar will be your best bet if you can't run a "Y-Cable" to some external computer speakers.

anyone tried the portable power mat

yes. it's an okay device for multiple people. For example, I find it useless for an avid iPod user, simply because most iPod ready devices already charge it while in use. If you are going to charge your phone with it, and only ONE phone, it seems to be a waste of money, as you can just plug in the phone to the normal charging cord and save yourself some money. And there a really NO cameras that allow this to be attached to charge the batteries there and this does not work with laptops. So unless there are multiple users placing their cell phones on this device, it seems pointless to purchase.

What is the difference between a wired headset vs. bluetooth headset?

A Bluetooth headset works with Bluetooth compatible devices such as a cell phone, or PC/Mac and etc. this is a device that uses a frequency to transmit a signal "without wires" thus making it a great replacement for a wired headset. Rarely do I a difference between the two in quality.

corner mountiing

do you have a wall mount that will mount into the corner?
a better option will be to purchase a full motion wall mount. This will be angled from one wall. Works just as well.

What do the class & type AB, BD, D, stand for?

amplifier classes are determined based on how efficient the power will be at a given time. If you have an amplifier classed at D, this may work better with subwoofers. Where as something like an A may be very inefficient for speakers that require a heavier power load.

what kind of cable do I need to be able to hook up my laptop to my plasma tv?

depending on the video output for your laptop, most televisions will have a PC input or an additional HDMI. its going to depend on your video card for your laptop, but the most common cables you will need are going to be a VGA, DVI, S-VIDEO, or HDMI.

Is there an adapter that allows me to play my mp3 player (NOT ipod) through my car stereo?

Yes. There are a few products that will work. Depending on the head unit already installed, you can use an FM Transmitter, a cassette adapter, or even something that will plug into the back of your head unit. All of these choices do have models that will play through your headphone jack.
