I like the device. I HATE trying to "talk" with "Alexa". Hmmmmmm...Maybe "HATE" isn't a strong enough word but I think you get the idea.

Bose - SoundWear™ Companion® Sweat and Water Resistant Cover - Blue
Don't worry about a little rain, dust or a lot of sun. Both the Bose SoundWear Companion wearable speaker and the high-quality speaker cover are sweat- and weather-resistant, so moisture won't sneak through and dust won't stick to it. And the cover is four-way stretchable, so it fits the speaker snugly.
It's Blue without the Meanie part! (Get it?)

It's blue. It's a blue cover for my Bose® Soundwear Companion™ 'phones,
Looks good. I use it when I am cleaning the black one. Sweetness made into a cover.
It's a nice blue cover. What is not to like, unless of course you don't like blue? Would that make you a "Blue Meanie"? ;-)

I still despise talking to "Alexa". The sound is quite good and I primarily listen to Sinatra, Mathis, the Beatles, etc. The picture quality is fine and I am hoping to use this as a monitoring station for home security video.
I do recommend it. I just loath talking to "Alexa". Never liked doing that and never will. Ease of use is only four stars because of "Alexa". GAAAAACK!!!!

Yup. Four. I gave three of them as gifts because I like to give something that I know is an excellent product and having owned several sets of Bose® speakers, including the legendary 901s, I have ZERO reservations about buying something from them.
The workmanship is excellent. The sound superb . The style, is beyond reproach. The sound? Yeah...Again, SUPERB. This speakers, these "headphones" are not for the stuck up of the frAudiophile World (I read that term on the internet and it is hilarious!), they are for REAL people that enjoy listening to music, NOT equipment. Bose makes excellent products for people, not SNOBS.
Only a snob listens to equipment while a person listens to music. Music is the soundtrack of our lives. Love is friendship set to music. These Soundwear Companions are worth the price of admission and I was ready to buy two of them when they went on sale at 50%, soooooo...I bought four of them instead!
They are extremely easy to set up and you can use the Bose App or just hook them up via Bluetoof without the App. They work and they reproduce music beautifully. I gave one pair to my son and two pair (a pair of pairs!) to my brother and his wonderful wife! They really LIKE them! My sister-in-law is a Goldsmith and can easily wear them and enjoy music while working at her bench. She wears them in their garden. She wears them around the house. They both wear them around the house and like my son, they both reeeeeeeeeeally like these 'phones!
I am certain you will too. Highly recommended? Yup. Trust me...I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

...It's a keyboard. A keyboard. That's exactly what it is. Not too exciting, huh? It lights up which is handy when it's darkish in the room. But on the whole, it is a freakin' keyboard.
And it does exactly what a keyboard should do. Don't believe me? It's doing keyboardish stuff write (get it?!) now.
I recommend one of these if you need a KEYBOARD. :-)

The Pioneer GM-DX874 four-channel amplifier will deliver up to 150 watts RMS to each of your front and rear speakers for powerful music. Highly efficient Class D technology keeps this powerful amp running as cool as it looks, and allows for a compact chassis that fits in a lot of out of the way spaces. The frequency response of this amplifier stretches up to 50,000 Hz, for Hi-Res Audio Certified playback. Pioneer uses high-grade electronic parts and gold-plated RCA connections to ensure maximum performance. Speaker-level inputs allow you to install this amp in a factory system with no RCA connections. The amplifier switches its input mode automatically when it detects the high-level signal, eliminating the need to run a turn-on lead to your receiver or fuse box. Built-in high- and low-pass filters let you adjust the sound for your vehicle's interior, whether you're driving speakers or subs.
Does this amplifier make a loud "POP!" when turning the audio system off or on, or does it have relays to prevent this annoying problem. I ask because the last time I put an amp in my truck (albeit years ago), the speakers did just that.

Watch HDR movies and shows on the 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display – the brightest iPhone display yet.¹ Experience unprecedented performance with A13 Bionic for gaming, augmented reality (AR), and photography. And get all-day battery life² and a new level of water resistance.³ All in the first iPhone powerful enough to be called Pro.
Would anyone care to remark on how Apple CarPlay is compared to Android Auto? I have the latter and it kinda SUCKS as it often doesn't recognize the phone is plugged in or when I speak to it it will turn the radio UP LOUD and not hear me, etc? Thx!

Apple - iPhone SE (2nd generation) 256GB (Unlocked)
iPhone SE is the most powerful 4.7-inch iPhone ever.¹ Featuring A13 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone, for incredible performance in apps, games, and photography. Portrait mode for studio-quality portraits and six lighting effects. Next-generation Smart HDR for incredible detail across highlights and shadows. Cinematic-quality 4K video. And all the advanced features of iOS. With long battery life² and water resistance,³ it's so much of the iPhone you love, in a not so big size.
Is Apple CarPlay any more reliable that Android Auto? Primary use is as a phone but when in my vehicles I use Android Auto for music and that app seems VERY "buggy", including connection problems out the wazoo! I have just about had it! Thx!

SiriusXM - Onyx Plus Satellite Radio Receiver with PowerConnect Vehicle Kit - Black
SiriusXM Onyx Plus SXPL1V1 Satellite Radio Receiver: With satellite radio you get access to hundreds of great channels, as well as customizable favorites so you can play the stations, artists and songs you love, anytime. Satellite and Internet Radio subscriptions are sold separately by SiriusXM Radio Inc. See the SiriusXM Customer Agreement at www.siriusxm.com for details.
What brand of Sirius Xmas radio is truly battery powered or can be recharged. I want to be able to take it to the beach where are they sold ?
I would recommend the SiriusXM SXSD2 Portable Speaker Dock. It can run on D cell batteries and the antenna cable is easily deployed or stored for portable use.
The kit also runs on AC when in your homeand you must route the antenna to a location it can pick up the satellite's signa. This is what I have done for years and it works great!
Hope this helps!

I am going to be buying a new car and in my old car it's hooked up to the AUX connection. Is there another way to make a connection because some of the cars I'm looking at do not have the aux option.
Your new car should have a Bluetooth receiver built in and you can connect the Onyx via that . You will need the PowerConnect kit and magnetically mount the antenna to the roof of your car and then to the Vehicle Kit's antenna input.

my 2023 Honda Crv Sport has an usb port and a cigarette lighter input i do not have an auxiliary input the factory radio has a usb button on the radio also can i use the radio with my boise auxillary input does it come with the cable for the boise
Your 2023 Honda should have a Bluetooth receiver built in to it. You can use the Bluetooth out of the Onkyx to connect it to the Hondas stereo and then select Bluetooth on the Honda to listen. Maker certain to hook the Onyx magnetic antenna up and route the cable and antenna to the roof of your Honda where it will magnetically mount to the roof and then listen!

I have a 2016 ford lariat and it equipped with x m radio . I have an onyx all ready hooked up in my old truck and in my garage . I don’t want an extra payment so can I hook up my onyx in my new truck .
If your truck has an Aux Input (which given its year, I think it does!) then YES! Just use the PowerConnect Vehicle Kit and plug a mini-jack stereo cable into the output on the Onyx Plus and then connect this to your Ford's Aux Input.
Then make certain you connect the antenna to the vehicle kits' antenna out and then place the antenna on the roof of your vehichle and that is it! I originally did this and "threaded" the antenna cable under the rubber weatherseal on the passenger side (this protects the antenna cable) and to the roof.
Later on I had Best Buy tap into the OEM roof mounted satellite radio antenna and that in turn is connected to my PowerConnect Vehicl Kit. I just plug the Onyx Plus kit and select aux input and everything works great!

Save money on food and energy with this GE frost-free upright freezer. It's ENERGY STAR qualified with an electronic temperature control located on the outside for easy adjustments, and it includes a lock and key to prevent unauthorized access. The LED light in this 17.3 cu. ft. GE frost-free upright freezer automatically illuminates when the door is opened.
I need an upright freezer delivered to my basement. The door will need to be taken off to get it there. Will the delivery people take the door off to move through the openings to the basement? Then reinstall the door? The model is GE FUF17DLRWW.
I think this question needs to be asked of your local Best Buy staff where you will be buying the freezer. It may well be that they can include removal and replacement of the door in their delivery and it also may cost an additional amount.
It will not hurt to ask, again, at the Best Buy you will be purchasing this at. All the best!

Is this CD compatible with a Sonos Port? If so, do I need any other components to play CDs and hear the music through my SONOS system of speakers?
If your "SONOS Port" is a simple standard input jack, I would say yes. On my HEOS setups, I simply choose the input of CD and hit play and the music goes to whatever speaker(s) I have set up.
Yes, I am unfamiliar with SONOS but I do think the port you speak of must surely be a standard input jack. All the best!
