I was awaiting to try this speaker as it would be the first that I own with the aptX HD compatibility Connecting was seamless, and I was testing songs in no time.
The first thing to note with this speaker is...input matters. If you are streaming audio, and your stream is set for lower audio quality for conserving bandwidth, it will show up in the performance of the speaker. Same with downloaded audio.
I turned on the aptx HD, turned my streams to high quality and hit the volume. No distortion, clean high, mids, and decent bass. Bass performs better if enclosed(corner), but decent for a speaker this size. Without question, this is a great sounding speaker. Will it fill a hall, barely, a room, most definitely. I also like the lighting patterns and the ability to turn it off if needed
Now, here's where it lost a start for me. While in aptX mode, it will not play certain sources. For instance, I switched from Google Play to Youtube and the speaker went silent. At first, I thought it lost connection, but no, it wasn't until I turned off aptX that the Youtube audio played. If it needs high quality to stream in certain cases, it should specify to remove any troubleshooting mystery. Not a deal breaker, but a small inconvenience.
The second issue is when I use the Flow app, it takes over the BT connection. So, when I close the app, the speaker disconnects. This is irritating. The only fix is to just not use the app, which doesn't warrant enough features to use anyway. The standard connection is just fine.

All in all, still a great product, and with it's claimed ruggedness, it is built to be tossed around in travel.

I usually stay away from the "tic-tac" keyboards, but this board has won me over. Great spacing and portability. Tried it for a while, and will be using going forward.
The only downside so far is that the rubber feet on the wrist rest came off fairly easily. I hope that does not reflect quality of the rest of the components going forward.
Besides that, great board. Love the lights!

As a person still in love with 3D Blu Rays, yet moving forward with 4K, it can be tricky to find players to support it all...besides gaming hardware. Well, here we are. This little beauty does both, and does it well. Quick set-up and operation. Sleek design with all the connections I need to get the most out of my movies. Have only tried the "play from USB" a few times, but so far, everything tossed at it played. Very happy with this unit.

It has been a while since I have used wireless headphones for home theater/gaming usage. Mainly due to the fact that wireless usually couldn't provide the same "punch" as wired headsets. These have changed my tune. The ATMOS is amazing in this set. i played through the demos, played a few games and watched Sicario. All added a new level of enjoyment. Even better than my last wired 7.1 headphones. Charge is still going strong. I've worn them for hours with little to no discomfort which is unusual for my big head.
All and all, well worth the price of admission for detailed and full sound. Still playing with the EQ settings, but so far, they definitely add some differentiation to the content...just not sure which is better.

The only gripe I have is some soundtracks, at higher volumes, still have a bit of distortion. Especially on bass tones. Not terrible, but I do notice. They also could do better in provided a more in-depth instruction sheet in addition to the quick start guide. Pretty easy to set-up, but some extra detail would be nice.

These speakers are half the size of my standard bookshelf/front speakers but sound twice as good. I have tested them for Atmos, and was satisfied, then switched to test as front speakers and was equally blown away. I'm tempted to purchase another set to up my sound. They pack some weight, but that is explained the minute you fire them up. Great speakers with clean sound to add to your set-up.

This makes a great latte, a great cup of coffee, and with a little experimenting, a great vanilla steamer. I love the speed. I start cooking breakfast, and before the eggs are done, I have a nice frothy treat waiting for me. Simple operation, and easy to clean/maintain. The flavors of coffee are exceptional and the machine places just the right amount of water to strike the perfect balance. No need to leave the house for my morning joe.
There are a few drawbacks. It is LOUD. If your kitchen is anywhere near anyone sleeping/napping, be aware it will be difficult to "sneak a cup." Although it doesn't last long, that initial warming rumble is off putting. The milk jug never uses all of the milk. I have tried going above the line, below the line, etc. There is always a little left over. I just pour it in, but it would be nice to have the container completely emptied. Lastly, the temperature should be adjustable. I understand that it sets "the perfect temperature," but it cools much too quickly. If I don't guzzle, I often find myself reheating. These are not deal breakers, just things to note.

Wasn't sold at first, but being that I don't have a "smart TV," some features were missing from my home theater. This fills those gaps. Better $35 than $6000 for a newer TV. Seamless streaming from my S5, tablet and laptop. Awesome product.

PowerVision - PowerDolphin Wizard Water Drone - White/Gray
Find the best fishing spots with this PowerDolphin Wizard water drone. The included PowerSeeker gives you data on water conditions, and the BaitBox function lets you drop bait to attract fish. This PowerDolphin Wizard water drone has a 4K UHD camera that captures stunning footage and quickly switches between above and underwater modes.
How deep can this go underwater. The add says the “SONAR” can detect up to 230 ft but nothing is stated about how deep the drone itself can go.
It doesn't. It comes with a "sensor" that attaches to the bottom and that does the measurements and sends the result back to the viewing device.

Logitech - Harmony Hub - Black
Easily manage your home automation system while you're on the go with this Logitech Harmony 915-000238 hub, which allows you to control up to 8 connected devices via a compatible Bluetooth-enabled Apple® iOS or Android smartphone.
Do I have to get this in order to use my Alexa Echo to control my smart TV and lights? Or can the Alexa Echo control these things without the Harmony Home Hub.
if you are just looking to turn them on and off you could connect them each to a smart plug and Alexa can control them once connected. The lights can even be dimmed. If you are looking for full control of your TV, and it does not have Alexa built-in, the hub will be your best bet in order to make everything work coherently in sync.

Easily manage your home automation system while you're on the go with this Logitech Harmony 915-000238 hub, which allows you to control up to 8 connected devices via a compatible Bluetooth-enabled Apple® iOS or Android smartphone.
So for one thing, I want to connect this to my TV. So I understand that it should work with a TV but will it connect to a fan? I already have a google home but I just need to make my TV and fan voice command
If it is a standard fan, you would just need to connect it to a smart plug. That plug can then be connected via voice command to your Harmony hub. Then you could control both with the hub.

Hi, Can these be used on their own (without other speakers) for sound for a small room?
Yes. I connected them to a mini-amplifier and the sound would easily fill a small room. Just be sure the amplifier can provide ample wattage. I believe these speakers can take up to 100W each.
