The Denon sound bar in Magnolia is an excellent sound bar. I bought this to have better sound in the bedroom after installing a system in my family room. I initially just wanted something better than the TV speakers but realized there is a big difference between sound bars. This one in particular has a wireless sub and can learn remotes so you do not need a separate remote to control it. Also, the sound from the sound bar itself is clear and good at reproducing vocals. Overall it is a great sound bar and is sold at a reasonable price, especially if you can get it during a special promotion.

Bough the this on sale at Best Buy. I love the idea of anew assistant and I like Google's approach to keeping things open. I am not a fan of closed systems like the Amazon Echo.
Overall this product shows a lot of promise but seems like it is not yet finished. A lot of questions are answered with "sorry I can't help with that yet."
It is good with playing music in the kitchen, the speakers are fairly loud and balanced for their size. Also, very helpful with setting alarms and reminders. I would like to be able to place calls and texts with it though which it is not able to do yet.

Bought this 12-month membership specifically for the free games offered each month. The PS+ membership gives a lot of value especially compared to X Box membership. You get to play games online, get discounts in the PS store, and get two free games to download each month. Only downside is that Sony raised the price of a 12 month member ship from $50 to $60. However overall that is still a great value considering what is offered.

Bought this cable to power my Martin Logan 10" sub. This cable works as advertised and my sub sounds great. However I am not sure how much of the performance would be increased or decreased based on the type of cable used for this. I think it is worth the money though as it is similar in cost to other cables and my sub does not have any issues with the connection. Would recommend this to others looking to power a sub at a decent price point for cables.

Bought this phone to replace my "exploding" Note 7. This phone is fast and capable. I like the curved screen and bright colors that pop out. Fans of prior Samsung phones will love this phone. However I think the price should come down as the phone is now more than 6 months old. The Galaxy 8 is coming out early 2017 and should be the phone to buy for people who want the latest technology.

Bought this speaker wire to power my rear speakers in my home theater setup. It is more than sufficient to power speakers and depending on how good you want your system to sound, could be used to power front speakers as well. I used this for my rear Bowers & Wilkins bookshelf speakers in a 5.1 system setup. These delivered crisp sound for the money. Although this does not split the highs and lows, I believe that would be overkill for rear sound. Again, this depends on your preference and some may want to go all-in, in which case I would recommend premium speaker wire that splits high and low frequencies. But I personally like this wire for the money.

Bought this movie to test out my new home theater system. I like the 4k quality, however the movie itself is just ok. Not very different from the other X-Men movies and I am honestly getting a little tired of seeing the same thing over and over again.

The Audio quest speaker wire splits into 4 for more premium sound quality from the speakers. I used this to connect my front center and tower speakers. I think the sound quality is improved from the original speaker wire I was using, which was basic 16 gauge. However it is really expensive and I am not sure the improvement in quality is really worth the nearly $100 cost for 50 ft. Depends on how passionate you are about having the best possible sound in your home theater setup.

I decided to go with this sub and am using with Bowers & Wilkins speakers. The sub supports WiFi although I connected directly as the sound kept cutting in and out with the WiFi setup. There is a manual control for the bass in the back which is nice for a quick adjustment. You can position the sub forward facing or downward facing. Should be more than enough to provide quality bass for even a larger family room.

The CM Centre S2 is an excellent speaker for the money. Not quite as hard hitting as the next step in the Bowers & Wilkins line, but not as expensive either. I decided to go with this as it was more than efficient to provide nice crisp sound in my family room. Unless you live in a super sized mansion, this speaker should serve you well.
