The headphones are great for certain activities, but pretty bad for others. The sound is comparable to other mid- to high-end wired phones I have owned. They are light and comfortable. Very secure fit in the ears for all kinds of activities. My only complaint is the Bluetooth. It works great if you don't move, but that defeats the purpose of the headphones. I wear them for running and they are okay most of the time, but if I look behind me, the music skips. If I'm holding my phone in my hand and drop my hand to my side or stretch it above my head, the music skips. If you wear your phone on an armband, it might work better. When I walk, it gets 100 times worse. The bigger swing of my arms when I walk causes the connection to go nuts. Basically, these headphones work great in any situation where your music source and the headphones are sitting still, or moving together. As soon as you move one of them in a different direction, you will experience skips.

The Kindle Fire HDX is a great tablet and e-reader. It has a very sharp, clear beautiful display. Reading is easy in any setting except direct sunlight. If you are looking for a general use Android tablet, there are probably some better choices available. However, if you want a full-featured e-reader that is great for books, but also give you access to a rich world of other content, the HDX is hard to beat. It is fully integrated with all the Amazon offerings, such as Amazon Instant Video. As an Amazon Prime member, you have unlimited free access to thousands of movies and television shows. You can also "borrow" one book per month from the Kindle Owners Lending Library. The HDX gives you access to thousands of Android apps, but not all of them. If the Android apps are your top priority, you may prefer the Samsung Galaxy Tab or Google Nexus. I considered buying one of them, but ultimately chose the HDX because of the wealth of content available from Amazon.

I bought the first generation of Klipsch Pro Audio speakers when they were introduced about 12 years ago. They were amazing speakers and blew me away back then and I never stopped loving them. Many computers came and went, but the speakers were rock solid for over a decade. I finally decided to replace them and after shopping around and listening to every set of speakers in this price range, I decided that these were the clear choice to buy again. I hooked them up about a month ago and they sound great. They are also much cheaper than they were 12 years ago! At this price, there is no reason to look at cheap speakers. The Klipsch is a tremendous value. Just buy them!
What's great about it: Perfect, crisp and deep sound, even at VERY high volume.
