This is a well built microwave. We are replacing the 1999 one we purchased with our new home and are remodeling now 18 years later. This was a very good buy and will go perfect with our Fridgidaire oven we purchased from Best Buy last year.

The fastest way to speed up a laptop is to first clean all the unneeded files off of it. After you have done this, upgrade the memory - especially if the kids are playing games on it. Doubling the memory will aid in not only running the games faster, but also in all the things you do on a daily basis with it. You could also get a faster video card, but on a laptop these are not only more costly to replace, but very difficult. This was a great buy as they were on sale. Worked great and we are happy now with the functional response we received from the addition.

We were looking for an extra TV for the Grandkids room just for the times they come over and play games, spend the night, or watch movies. The old "box" TV we had was OK, but no HD, really bulky and just not what we wanted them to have. It was to just be an extra, so we did not want to pay a whole lot for it. This was a SUPER buy. It was an open box, but everything was there and it was still wrapped in the plastic. This was exactly what we were looking for and really you cannot even tell the difference of 29" against the 32" we had previously purchased as they are in different rooms and look exactly the same. I would highly recommend this for an extra bedroom!

Griffin - Black/Blue Survivor All-Terrain Case + Belt Clip for iPod touch (5th/ 6th gen.) - blue
Ridiculously over-engineered? Or the perfect case for your iPod touch no matter where you're headed?. We think it's a little bit of both. Simply put, the Griffin Survivor Case is the most protective case we've ever built. Tested and certified to meet or exceed US Department of Defense Standard 810F and UK Department of Defense Standard 00-35, Griffin's Survivor Extreme-Duty Case is designed from the inside out to protect your iPod touch from extreme conditions ... dirt, sand, rain, shock, vibration and a host of other environmental factors. Survivor is built on a shatter-resistant polycarbonate frame clad in rugged, shock-absorbing silicone. A built-in screen protector seals your Multi-Touch display from the outside environment, and hinged plugs seal the dock connector, camera lens, headphone port, hold switch and volume controls. A detachable heavy-duty clip secures your iPod touch to a belt or bag strap. Survivor is independently tested and verified to meet or exceed environmental testing standards for blown rain, blown dust and grit, vibration, shock, temperature and humidity. Compatible with iPod touch 5th and 6th generation.

It seems through time that my wife has the worst luck with any phone she owns. This case will protect it from any drop within reason, but not one into the toilet! It is not waterproof, or even resistant. I would highly recommend it to keep the screen safe, but if they keep it in their back pocket - maybe get one that is waterproof!

This was an excellent purchase for our 16 year old grandson for Christmas. Seems the older they get, the less items you can find for them. This works great as then they can download the music they like and not have 100 CDs just laying around the house!!

Great product. Burner grids are super nice. Lots of space and options for heating, warming, keeping things hot, and the replaceable middle burner with a griddle is great. The heat up time for the oven in unbelievable! Almost before you can get a cake mix ready, it is preheated. This has proved to be an excellent replacement for our old unit. Would highly recommend to any one looking for a very nice gas range/oven.

The Lenovo H520 is provided with PC3-12800 DDR3 SDRAM DIMM 240-pin memory. This memory is a 204-pin unit. I would not fit your unit.

Stackable?

If I order 2 of these which would amount to 8 GB, are these available to put together in that way of 8 GB for my MacBook Pro? I know some are packaged already as 2 x 4 GB RAM.
You need to make sure this memory will fit your MacBook Pro. They make separate memory mods for all Mac computers. I think these are meant to be for Windows computers only.

But yes, this would give you a total of 8GB of Ram.

Is power adapter dual voltage?

Does the AC input accept 110-240V? Or is it 120VAC only?
It is 120V only. You would have to get a converter to use 240.

Should the Transmitter work if receiver onkio TX - SR 304 and sub Polk Audio PSW 108 ?

I tryed to connect the receiver Onkio TX - SR 304 with a sub Polk Audio PSW 108 , the lights of transmitter remain blue but the sub does not work.
I tried to another device (sony) and it worked with this receiver.

What it means ? The receiver Onkio, sub Polk Audio PSW 108 and Wireless Subwoofer Transmitter are not compatible ??
This is actually just a transmitter, so it should work. It just transmits the signal received from the unit to the speaker.

Is there sufficient output?

I have an old AR Sub with only a gain control and R and L Low Level inputs and cannot get enough volume from my Sub using a Dayton transmitter/receiver.

Would the Rockfish produce any more volume.
There is no volume control for the wireless unit. I have found if I do not have my amp turned up high enough to produce a good base, the unit will not even activate. In my opinion this is fine as I only keep it down when others in the house may be trying to sleep. I purchased a sub with a volume control built in to it, so I can turn it up higher even without needing to adjust the amp. Not sure really if this answered your question for what you were looking for, but at Best Buy one good thing is you can return it if it doesn't.

Does this transmit the full audio spectrum? I know it's a single channel (mono)

So, here is a scenario. I'd like to extend background music from one part of the house to another, Using an amplified speaker I already own. In this situation, mono audio is preferred. I am not seeking advice on why using a pair of speakers is "better", I'm asking if this will work for my application.

The ideal answer is: "The audio frequency response passed through the system is X (like 20) Hz to Y (like 20,000) Hz or whatever it is."

So, will the audio output of the receiver contain the normal full range spectrum, or does it filter out all the midrange and highs and only pass through the frequencies used by a subwoofer.

Before you answer, I've already read the specifications.
Really just for your Bass. They have another unit for all speakers, but most people use this one if they have a sound bar and want a bass across the room.

My Rocketfish Wireless Rear Speaker sender is beeping intermittently. I bought it March, 2011. Is this an indication that the sender is worn?

Make sure you are getting a good connection on electrical side. If not, it will cause this. Also, if sound is too low believe it or not.

will this work with a Kef subwoofer

Not sure on KEF. It should work on any Powered Sub which is wired to a receiver. This unit just eliminates the need to run the wires. It is limited on the range of about 35 - 45 feet.
