Improve daily oral hygiene routines with this Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush. An internal sensor regulates applied pressure to prevent soreness of teeth and gums, and the BrushSync reminder lets you know when it's time to change the brush head. This Philips Sonicare electric toothbrush removes up to seven times more plaque than a regular toothbrush to maintain oral health.

The PNY DUO LINK USB 3.2 Type-C Dual Flash Drive bridges the gap between mobile and desktop, making it the ideal mobile storage solution for file management on-the-go. DUO LINK is the perfect tool to free up space on Type-C equipped mobile devices by allowing users to move content such as photos, videos, music, and more from their smartphones and tablets to the drive, making room for more, and ensuring they will never miss an opportunity to capture content due to lack of memory. What~s more, the DUO LINK Dual Flash Drive allows for the transfer of content to full size devices such as laptop and desktop computers for permanent storage. With read speeds of up to 200MB/s and transfers up to 30x faster than USB 2.0, moving content from the drive to a computer is quick and easy. From there, users can take their content to the next level and create videos, social posts, process prints, or simply save their files on a more permanent storage device. The DUO Link USB 3.2 Type-C Dual Flash Drive is ideal for use across operating systems and host devices. With a USB 3.2 Type-C connector for Type-C Android mobile devices and newer gen PC & Mac laptop and desktop computers, and a USB 3.2 Type-A connector for previous gen computers, the potential for content creation and file management is near limitless.

Experience every detail of Pure Home Theater with Definitive Technology BP9080X Tower Speaker with BDSS (Balanced Double Surround System) Technology that improves driver excursion producing bass output equivalent to a large driver while retaining the improved dispersion and midrange definition of a smaller driver. The 9080X Floorstanding Speaker features an integrated 12~ Powered Subwoofer and Dual Bass Radiators making it one of the best loudspeaker that reproduces balance between highs and lows accurately. Enjoy more impactful bass from just the tower speaker without the need to add a separate subwoofer. Two-way integrated Dolby Atmos / DTS:X height module let you explore true multi-dimensional sound. This outstanding speaker from Definitive Technology features its own Intelligent Bass Control gives you the ability to modulate deep bass up or down in level while simultaneously maintaining mid-range tonal balance. Timeless, minimalist design. This is what obsession sounds like.

Amazing Sound - Questionable Longevity
By JoeS3
First off - these speakers sound amazing. I am not an audiophile, but I was going between purchasing some floor standing speakers and then adding (2) subwoofers, or just purchasing these towers with the integrated subs.
I went to BBY and listened to all the different independent subwoofers in the store, and while they were "okay", none of the options blew me away. Then I went into the room with the Def Tech speakers, and we watched the same movie clip with the BP9080x tower speakers, and the decision was made instantly. The subs sounded signifcantly deeper, as well as more balanced than any of the individual subwoofers, and the comparison was not even close. The Def Techs sound 2X better, easy.
I pulled the trigger, and took them home. Set them up into my home theater, and they sound amazing. The bass is off the charts, to the point that I get in trouble each time I from the neighbor when I watch an action movie, as it shakes their entire wall of their house! I have the subs at 20%, but if you crank them to 40% (or 50% if you're crazy), they will seriously shake your entire house! I cannot believe the amount of bass these things kick out.
Now the bad...
The automatic turn on of the subwoofer amplifiers are a horrible idea. When i turn on a movie, the subs won't turn on unless there is a powerful enough signal, I have to turn the volume up to a level where it recognizes the bass, then sometimes 1, sometimes both of the subs will come on. Then about 2 seconds after the subs turn on, a big "THUMP" happens EVERY TIME! The only way to avoid this that I've found is to have a separate surge protector with only the towers hooked up to it, and then power the surge protector on before every movie. This turns the subs on with no signal, prevent the big "thump" noise.
Then, after watching a movie, the subs remain on for about 10-15 minutes, but when the amps turn off, the big "Thump" occurs again. It is so distasteful that I stopped using the speakers for half a year because it sounds so bad. I called Def Tech and told them the issue, but they wouldn't even hear me out - they simply sent me a new amplifier in the mail and said that will fix the issue. NOTE - both towers do this, so I will have to write Def Tech back and request another amp, one for each tower to fix this issue (if this truly is the problem). If it is the problem, what are the chances both towers would be defective?
I purchased the center speaker as well, the CS9080, and that speaker has some issues occurring as well, so I'm losing faith in Def Tech's quality. The sound is amazing, but not sure they are using quality parts, or the sourcing partners have some serious quality control issues.
If I were to go back in time, despite the Def Techs sounding incredible (from a bass perspective), I think I'd avoid getting integrated subwoofers, and just get a pair of quality KEF Q-series, or some nice B&W's, and then pair with a couple SVS subwoofers and call it a day. Non-powered speakers should last FOREVER, so by removing the weak link (amplifier in integrated sub), you remove the one potential issue you could have.
I have a full Def Tech setup, BP9080x towers, CS9080 center, and the 9080 surrounds, and they sound great, but for all the stress they've caused me with quality issues, I'd avoid.

Will this work linking my Bose Lifestyle AV18 to a Samsung model 6 smart TV, which only has a HTMI ACR input?

NO! If the Bose AV18 is a sound bar, you need either an HDMI cable, or an optical cable!

I have an old RCA brand surround sound system . Will this adapter work to connect old system to new TV ?

NO! If I knew what inputs your receiver has, I could answer your question better, but, if your receiver has HDMI inputs, all your audio and video gear are connected to that, and one HDMI cable runs to your tv! If not, then you need an optical cable that runs from your tv to the optical input of your receiver!

The HDMI ports are "out" on my TV according to Comcast. This results in picture but no sound when TV is on but I get sound if I play a DVD? Would this box fix my problem with the two HDMI ports out on my TV? Not a techie, TV is LG. Thanks

The HDMI from your Comcast receiver is output going to the HDMI input of your tv! I could give a better answer if I knew your setup! The answer to your question is No!

Is there a way to add more HDMI ports? I need more than 2 for it to work with my firestick, surround sound, DVD player, and gaming system.

You said sound system, so, I don’t know whether you have a sound bar or a dedicated receiver, which would solve all your HDMI problems!
