Excellent noise cancellation, mediocre sound
Customer Rating
3.0
These headphones are my first-ever Bose product, so I was shocked to find the old adage "no highs, no lows, must be Bose" is true -- everything that plays through these things sounds absolutely flat, with no real discernible "depth" of sound. Highs are subdued, and lows are mushy. Bass-heavy songs feel like they're missing range, giving out more of a thud than a thump. DO NOT buy these headphones if your primary concern is audio quality.
While I'm very disappointed with the quality of the sound, I'm happy to say the excellent noise cancellation in the QuietComforts is easily the best I've ever used. If it's not sitting right next to you when you turn noise cancellation on, you won't hear it. It's unfortunate that having NC enabled seems to slightly affect audio quality, but the audio quality sucks anyway, so no big loss there.
Feature-wise, the QuietComforts have the standard round of features you'd usually find in other overpriced headphones, but you're forced to use a phone app if you want to use the vast majority of the features. Not only that, plugging these headphones into a jack automatically turns off some of those same features (essentially leaving you with a bog-standard pair of headphones with no way to change the NC level), so if you plan on using these in place of wired cans, I'd suggest you look for a pair that aren't Bose.
Overall, I'm relatively happy with the QuietComforts. I just wish they sounded as good as my $60 pair of wireless Oontz Budz. Or any of my other headphones, for that matter.

Not a bad movie at all, just a little sparse at points. Has Werner Herzog as a fantastically psychopathic villain, and he's pretty much the movie's only real entertainment selling point. Plenty of action and adventure!

Not as good as the first one
Customer Rating
3.0
Not as good as the first one, but not as bad as critics made it out to be. Doesn't have Werner Herzog in it, unfortunately. Enough action to keep the ADD American Public entranced, but the plot is pretty much unfathomable at most points.

Minecraft: Xbox One Edition - Xbox One
As a child you played with wooden or plastic blocks to create what you saw in the world around you — a house, a car, a bridge, a cement mixer. In high school, you built lamps, signs and more in shop class. You've also constructed full worlds, filled with realistic people simulating real life. Now, you can go back to your childlike roots and build with blocks again — but this time they're virtual blocks, and you can use them to create vibrant, 3D worlds that are filled with adventure and the magic of imagination.Get ready to build whatever pops into your mind when you jump into the 3D, eight-bit worlds of Minecraft. Brought to life on your Xbox One, Minecraft lets you flex and hone your creative might as you construct literally any and everything you can think of. Grab your controller and start stacking virtual blocks to build the open-world of your dreams. Just make sure to make a shelter before nightfall, as that's when the monsters emerge. Are you ready to construct the world of your dreams in nostalgic, eight-bit fashion?
Classic game!

Sounds pretty good for a $99 record player. Also has Phono and Line-In options, but no bluetooth. Can't go wrong if you're looking for a cheap, well-built beginner's player.

Standard WD HDD that works as advertised, but I wish there was a "power off/on" button so it wouldn't be draining juice constantly. I now have plenty of hard drive space for my Xbox One S.

Fun but derivative

Fun game, but nothing much going for it as far as originality is concerned. Lots of loot and skill options, fantastic graphics, and the community has been pretty good so far. Not looking forward to gated content via DLC and season pass, but that's the way of video games these days.

It's like playing The Elder Scrolls, but with microtransactions, other players blocking up your screen space, and more grind than you can shake a stick at.

Logitech - G930 Wireless Gaming Headset - Black
This headset features gaming-grade wireless range up to 40'. The 7.1-channel surround sound with advanced Dolby technology lets you hear opponents before they see you.
Do these continue to randomly turn off when charging?
I see that the largest problem with these seems to be that they randomly turn off throughout their lifespan. Does this occur still when they are plugged in and charging, or do they only cut off when they are not plugged in? I know my Astro A50s will turn off if they do not detect sound after a minute or 2.
They don't really turn off "randomly". The G930s are programmed to shut off after 45 minutes, but it's not consistent. Also, my set seems to shut off when the wifi signal in my apartment weakens - not sure if that's a common complaint or not.

Logitech - Z506 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers (6-Piece) - Black
Enjoy rich, lush audio with these surround sound speakers that feature 75W RMS power. A down-firing, ported subwoofer with a 5-1/2" driver controls powerful sound. The dedicated bass controller lets you customize the bass level to your liking.
Xbox support?
So I found out that my xbox one only supports S/PDIF speakers, so can I connect this speakers to my xbox one ?
No SPDIF input, unfortunately. You'll probably have to spend a few bucks more for speakers that support that function.
