How low can you go?

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought these for one reason only; I always seem to lose my earbuds at the gym. When I saw these for $3 on a closeout, it was a no-brainer to buy a few sets. Surprisingly, they do the job and sound decent especially at the fire sale price. They are not bluetooth and don't pretend to be anything high tech but they work fine with my iPhone and the machines that I use at the gym. So what if I inadvertently loose them, no biggie. What's not to like?

Way Too Much Tech
on April 7, 2018
Posted by: HomeTheaterGuy

Verified Purchase:Yes
Have you ever done a spare of the moment purchase only to realize that you way overbought for the job at hand? This was my experience with this product. First, let me say that I didn't find anything particularly wrong with this wine opener. However, once I stopped to consider how BIG this thing is and how much space it would consume on my countertop and all of this in the name of merely opening a wine bottle, it just got a bit ridiculous in my mind. So, I returned it. To me it's another example of a growing trend to use a sledgehammer's worth of technology to accomplish a tack-hammer's job. I went back to my Rabbit opener which is as high tech as I want to be for now. So, in all fairness, if a tech-everything approach is your cup of tea by all means give this opener a try. If not, grab a manual corkscrew or Rabbit opener and return to an age gone bye. Oh how I long for the days of Boone's Farm (twist cap, no less) in a plain brown bag with a straw! LOL

First Class Production

Verified Purchase:Yes
One of the greatest Broadway musical of the last 15 years and an excellent transfer to Blu-ray. If you're a Sondheim fan or enjoy great musicals, this will definitely be your cup of tea. But please don't come expecting Disney pablum, you will be disappointed. This is an intricate story with a first class plot, actors and music to match. Wonderful stuff! Buy it!

Does the Job

Nothing spectacular to report here as these cables do exactly what they are intended to do. I've been an Audioquest fan for years and needed these to connect a couple of new subwoofers. Excellent build quality is always apparent in Audioquest products.

Apple TV 4K lets you watch movies and shows in amazing 4K HDR - and now it completes the picture with immersive sound from Dolby Atmos¹. It streams your favorite sports, news, and TV channels live. Has great content from apps like Apple TV+, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and ESPN². And thanks to Siri, you can control it all with just your voice.

How 'bout dem Apples?

Verified Purchase:Yes
Had a third generation Apple TV and upgraded to this new 5th Generation Model. Wow! What a difference the 4K model makes. The most surprising thing is that it makes everything look way better. I am amazed! I've done back-to-back comparisons of how shows look when viewed on my regular smart TV apps and those on the new 4K Apple TV. There is no comparison. The Apple TV looks absolutely spectacular. BTW my TV is not 4K but it is a reference grade Panasonic Plasma. So, it's got to be the Apple TV technology that somehow up-converts the picture to "near 4K" quality. For now, this is a good fix for my desire to go all-in on 4K. Probably not happening until there is more actual 4K over-the-air programming available.

Great alternative to more costly QC35

Verified Purchase:Yes
Pleasantly surprised how good these sound right out of the box. They will probably get a bit better as they break-in. While I'm not an expert at noise cancelling headphones, these really do a commendable job at eliminating background noise and sound quite good. I compared them to my Sennheiser HD558's and the're at least in the same ballpark sound-wise. Are there better NC headphones out there? Absolutely, but you'll pay lots more for the privilege of ownership. These are perfect for traveling especially considering that the current Best Buy price is an absolute steal. No problemo, just buy them!

Another Great Untold Story

Verified Purchase:Yes
My wife, who loves historical novels, really got into this move and so did I. Amazed that there are so many of these type stories that now are coming to light and being made into first rate movies. If you enjoy high drama in the setting of the years preceding the Civil War, this is a movie for you. We enjoyed and trust that you will too.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I love stupid, funny, juvenile movies and this is another installment. If you saw the original, you'll definitely like this sequel. Can't really say which I like better since they both tickle my funny bone. Just great fun, so enjoy. BTW this type of movie has absolutely no WAF (wife acceptance factor) just so you know!

Action Galore

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm both a Bond fan and a car-chase movie fan. This movie fortunately checks both of these boxes for me. Story is a bit hard to follow or maybe I'm preoccupied with the action and the great production values especially the sound track which is top notch on my surround system. What can I say. If you like action, you'll like this!

It dances indeed!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Dances with Wolves is again an older movie but one that I've enjoyed many times. Kevin Costner stars as Lt. John Dunbar an exiled soldier who is sent to a remote western Civil War outpost where he befriends wolves and Indians, making him an intolerable aberration in the military. The movie basically centers on how his human kindness when misunderstood gets him in trouble. But good prevails in the end. So, we have here a wonderful human interest story with first rate sound and some fantastic video production values. I think this is a good movie to enjoy with the whole family.

What's the difference between an In-Wall Subwoofer cable and a regular cable?

It's my understanding that in-wall cables are designed to 1) meet building code requirements and 2) to have a "slippery" jacket covering to allow installers to more easily pull wire through wall openings.

WHERE CAN THAT GROUNDING WIRE BE ATTACHED? IT LOOKS VERY SHORT.

The ground wires are attached at the grounding screw of your amp or receiver and also at the grounding screw of your subwoofer (if it has one).

can you get these headphones that work with a vizo blue tooth tv. so that all in the room can still hear the tv?

Sorry, the Sennheiser 558's are not Bluetooth capable. But a quick Google search will provide you with many brands and models that are. Good luck!
