What's great about it: High quality
I used this wire to run long runs from my Receiver to outdoor speakers on my deck. This wiring provides excellent quality sound and worked great for the long runs. As with all speaker wire, make sure you choose the proper AWG to work with the length of your run. No minuses on this wire. Rocketfish is a high quality product.

What's great about it: Came free with computer purchase
What's not so great: Not the best AV software on the market
This was a free antivirus software that came with my new laptop. I had not used this previously, however I do use another software on all my computers which is the best AVG on the market in my opinion. I appreciated the opportunity to try another software, but will stay with the one I currently use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

 PNY - Performance 4GB (1PK 4GB) 1.6GHz DDR3 Laptop Memory - Green
PNY - Performance 4GB (1PK 4GB) 1.6GHz DDR3 Laptop Memory - Green
Keep your notebook moving with this PNY 4GB DDR3 RAM stick. The low 1300MHz frequency speed helps to reduce temperatures across the laptop while ensuring it still has enough speed to keep data flowing to important programs. Each PNY 4GB DDR3 RAM stick is ideal for motherboards that have 1.5-volt RAM slots.
 

Will this work in a Lenovo H520

8.1 64 bit
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.

Will this work with powered bookshelf speakers? If not, are there any products that will? Specifically AudioEngine a5+
No. You would need to get the Rocketfish Wireless Rear Speaker Kit - Model RF-WHTIB.
