These speaker stands feature adjustable carpet spikes and rubber feet that provide multiple stabilizing options and an integrated wire path that simplifies organization of heavy-gauge cables.

These things are great... :o)

They fit my Tannoy monitors like a glove. The option to use the supplied rubber items rather than the spikes is good for the wife acceptance factor (WAF). If we decide to go audiophile I will incorporate the spikes, but the system sounds very good as is. Assembly was not difficult, but take time to get it right. I did not fill with sand. They are not terribly heavy, but have good mass without adding any ballast. If I were to use them in a dedicated listening room I would fill them and use the spikes, but whether I would appreciate an additional level of realism is unknown until I try it... That will be quite a while. I can say that having used them for some time now, I am completely happy with the sound and look of the system.
One more thing. They were not in stock at the store when I checked at first. I asked if I could just buy the display items. The Magnolia guy checked stock and they had just gotten in a set. Happy me. Yeah, these are pretty darned good.
I would grad as a 4 rather than a 5 only because I noticed the very small aperture for adding sand, as noted in other reviewers. Looking ahead, I would be tempted to modify them to make adding ballast easier. BUT that is future. So they are a FIVE for now.

Well, it is a cable and does the job.

I would expect most cables to get five stars unless you think you paid too much, or it just did not work. This does the job. No complaints at all.

I didn't think I could afford it...

Discovered the Elite on sale and bought it right away. Most Pioneer Elite gear is above average as far as I can tell. Needed to get out of the 20th century and integrate the system with the new TV. The power rating may be a bit optimistic, but it is adequate for our living room. Using a programmable universal remote, the system has come together nicely. Tannoy mains and a Polk subwoofer are the core, with some surround and center speakers coming some time later. The listening experience is very acceptable for music, and movies or TV. There are enough inputs and outputs to satisfy our basic system, which has a Roku device and a Blu-ray player, with a couple other inputs unused. I really like the built in audio EQ, using the supplied microphone. It eliminates much of the hassle involved in placing the subwoofer and finding the right EQ for your sweet spot in the room. Fine gear at a great price.

Great TV for the price...

On sale, and an open box. Exceptionally good deal. It was missing the remote, noticed after getting it home. The nice fellow at Best Buy gave me a substitute which was not identical to the one supplied, but he also threw in a good universal remote. The picture quality is fine. Probably not as good as the higher level models, but compared to the old TV it is stunning......... And really large. Programming is easy, and has good options for different program material or taste. Very glad to have it.

I cannot say I have benchmarked it or anything. It's a memory stick and behaves as such. Retractable plug is a good feature.

It's funny. Funny characters and funny gags with a fine plot. It's not high mystery, but it has a couple of twists. A bit of violence and some foul language... But it is really funny.

Works with many dash vents... Good product.

Verified Purchase:Yes
Used extensively while on vacation in Phoenix. Clipped phone to dash vent on new Chevy Malibu and used mapping quite a bit. Be aware that the steel plate which nestles in the case on the back of the phone may interfere if the case has some irregular shapes molded in. Not a problem if you are willing to sculpt it a bit to fit. I did that with the hard shell case for my Droid and it worked perfectly. It is magnetic and makes mounting the phone really easy. The phone gets cold or warm because of the air flow from the vent... If your vents have levers sticking out of them that may make use more difficult.

Bought to enhance audio in home office computer system... Parents and kids all really enjoy the better quality sound over the built in TV / monitor speakers. The Logitech speakers generally are good sounding and inexpensive... Have used many over the years supporting desktops in business. Hard to do better for the money.
