Look, there's not a lot to this review other than this little device takes the frustration out of my particular cell phone by allowing me to PLUG IN A PAIR OF WIRED headphones! :-)

One of the dumbest and more aggravating things to happen in the world of 'phones is the disappearance of the min-jack for wired headphones. Stupid but I get why they did it.

To annoy us.

This takes away the annoyance. It is WORTH it!

Deep huh?

This is just a fun film. It's escapist fantasy and if you go in realizing this, then it will be fun, fun, FUN! The picture and sound are quite good and the story and dialog or capable enough of keep you engaged. I liked it better than the two previous Hellboy films, both of which I own.

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'.

Does my Total Tech cover me returning this TV or not? I just reset it to wipe out my streaming services. I give up. Hisense has not done squat for me. I am still a fan of Best Buy, just not this TV.

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?

Top 250 Contributor

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!

What kind of subwoffer do I need for bass and how do I hook it up too hear it

Top 250 Contributor

There are two (2) SUBWOOFER pre-outs on the rear of the unit. You will need a self-powered subwoofer (they come in a variety of sizes and power outputs!) for this and an RCA type connector cable (all of my new subs came with a cable in their box) that has one male end plug for the AVR subwoofer output and either one or two male end plugs for the input on the subwoofer(s). Once installed, go into your AVR's menu to set up for the subwoofer(s). It really is easy to do and as I said, you can hook up two subs (again, if you unit has two!) if that is something you desire. I have two 10 inch subs on my home theater setup from my Denon AVR-X4300H that I bought at my local Best Buy a couple of years ago (Two 10 inch subs!) For my new Denon AVR-S660H I am using a Martin-Logan 10 inch Sub that I also bought a few years ago at Best Buy and it works great with this AVR. All the best!

Does this reciver have a center speaker hook up??

Top 250 Contributor

Nope! It is 2.2 Stereo (meaning 2 channels and up to 2 powered subwoofers). For that (i.e., the center speaker) you would need to move up the Denon line to one of their excellent AVR models!

I just got this model but when I plug my DVD player to phono input the sound is distorted. Is there something wrong on it? The cd and the other input is fine but I have to turn up the volume every time.

Top 250 Contributor

The phono input is designed for the low output of a record player (not using a built-in phono-preamp!) so you should be using one of the HDMI inputs for your DVD player (it will be marked on the HDMI Inputs as "2 DVD").

Doing so will pass video and audio from your DVD to your DRA-800H and from there via the output to your TV. marked as ".Monitor"

Apple Watch Series 7 (GPS + Cellular) 45mm Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Band - Midnight (Verizon) - (2021)

The largest, most advanced Always-on Retina display yet makes everything you do with your Apple Watch Series 7 bigger and better. Series 7 is the most durable Apple Watch ever built, with an even more crack-resistant front crystal. Advanced features let you measure your blood oxygen level,¹ take an ECG anytime,² and access mindfulness and sleep tracking apps. You can also track dozens of workouts, including new tai chi and pilates.

Does it connect to your current phone? or does it need its own line?

As it is marked as GPS + Cellular, it has the necessary hardware to have its own cellphone line. It just means you don't need to carry your iPhone with you to make a call via this watch. I have a GPS only Apple Watch and when the iPhone is nearby and connected via Wifi?Bluetooth I can answer the call via my watch. Kinda sorta like Dick Tracy's 2-Way wrist TV. Well...kinda. Not sorta. LOL!

Either version of this watch will serve you well. So far, I don't really miss not having a watch that is also a standalone cell phone as I have my iPhone with me most of the day. And yes. The extra phone line for the watch will cost your whatever you carrier charges for another line.
