Add booming bass to your audio setup with this Klipsch Reference R-10SW subwoofer, which features a built-in digital amplifier that offers 300W peak power. A 10" IMG (injection-molded graphite) woofer reduces cone breakup and distortion for clear tones.

Great movie, just wish was in 3D
on June 10, 2016
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
Saw this in theater and had to add to my Xmen/Wolverine related library. I'm disappointed that it wasn't released in 3D. This is an R movie. Given some of the adult nature and graphical scenes (not just violence) use caution showing to young ones. I was shocked that an 8 or 10 yr old was taken to the theater by his mother/guardian for this movie and sat next to me; it made ME feel uncomfortable.

Great movie in the SW saga

I loved this movie and didn't mind all the parallels of the original trilogy. I withheld one star simply b/c there wasn't a 3D version of the movie offered and I saw in the theater in 3D.

Great Avengers movie, but a bit of the same

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good movie, but just seemed like more of the same old thing. We do get some new heroes and villains that are thoroughly entertaining and the 3D is an extra treat and we get setup for future solo movies and another Avengers.

Best Sci Fi since 2001: A Space Odyssey
on April 16, 2015
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
Backed by real science (for a change) this has got to be one of the best sci fi flicks since 2001: A Space Odyssey. The only thing I didn't like about this movie was the sound seemed to go over the top at intense moments in the film. They claim it was intentional, but it reminds me of poorly recorded albums that recorded so high that it introduced digital distortion. Would've loved to see it in 3D.

Great animation, heartfelt story, original, no 3D

While this was a great animated film that was original and had a heartfelt message, I was disappointed that it wasn't available in 3D and for winning the Oscar I guess I just expected more.

Great replacement for original (2008) Ps3 control
on March 5, 2015
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
My original PS3 controller died after 7 yrs; it wouldn't recharge at all and the rubber covering on one of the joysticks had been peeling off for years, which was really annoying. This new one has dual shock, which I thought the original had but it either didn't or broke early on. I had to price check this item as it was about $15 higher than Walmart, but ultimately got the better deal. It seems more solid than the original controller so I hope it lasts me the remaining life of the system!

Decent cheap bluetooth earpiece
on January 25, 2015
Posted by: Balo
from St. Cloud
Verified Purchase:Yes
Simple to use with no real bells or whistles, but was frustrating to start up as initially plugging it in would not allow linking it to phone until fully charged and I couldn't tell if it was broke at first or what; otherwise it's a decent simple and cheap bluetooth headset.

Add a creative glow to any corner of your space with this 6.6-foot Philips Hue LED light strip. Its multicolored, dimmable lights suit any desired ambience, and it lets you sync its movement with music or movies via third-party apps. Bend, shape and cut this Philips Hue LED light strip for flexible customization.
 

Will they work with Amazon echo dot

It should. We use it with Echo. It goes through the Philips hub that we have for some LED bulbs around the house and is setup with a phone ap. We also have it linked to the wireless motion detector so that it comes on when we enter the room and don't have to fumble for light switches or tell Echo to turn it on or fumble for our phone.

Keep your laptop cool with this Targus AWE80US space-saving chill mat that features dual fans for optimal performance. The locking mechanism adjusts, so you can easily find an ideal viewing angle or fold the mat for simple portability.
 

can this replace a dying fan?

so i think the fan in my laptop is on the way out. is this a workable solution to the problem? i don't have the money to buy a new one and don't feel comfortable shipping it off some place to have it fixed, if possible
The fan in a laptop is internal and directly helps remove heat from the cpu and such. The fans on the Chill Mat are just two low power fans that blow on the bottom of the laptop and I don't think would do as much as an internal fan, so I doubt it would solve your problem.
