They did not fit my 2011 Ford Mustang and this in spite of all indications here at Best Buy and elsewhere across the interwebs. They are built like a tank and from those that recommended them I have no doubt they would have sounded fantastico.
I bought two of them for the door mounts in my Mustang. They are said to be "shallow mount" subs but the installer at Best Buy took one look and said "No way are these going to fit in your Mustang. And by the way, they will fry your stock amps."
I trust his word and so I returned them today with a heavy heart. Gosh gee willies, I so looked forward to excellent bass from accoustic Jazz on these subs. I also bout Kicker 6 X 8 speakers for the front doors and rear deck on the same Mustang and they are superb!
The ONLY reason I HAD to return these on the same day they were to be installed is that they did NOT fit the car after all. Given the fanastico sound coming from the aforementioned Kickers that are now installed above the stock Ford 8" subs, I can recommend these IF they fit your vehicle.
The "poor" rating for "ease of use" is due entirely to their NOT fitting my Mustang. If I wanted to put these in one of those sub boxes (and I loath those things) I have no doubt they would please my ears but tax my eyes and trunk space, LOL!
I would recommend this to a friend!

...Doesn't follow Tolkien's book. This is a fine enough film series. I think I figured out how Peter Jackson got three films out of one skinny book: He based it on his ego.
Nothing entirely wrong with that as his Lord of The Rings extended versions were pretty durn swell themselves.
But... And everyone has a but so let's talk about Jackson's really big but: Exempli gratia: Having a "She-Elf" (that is one high-larious term) fall for a dwarf is not just stretching it, it's a ridiculous taffy-pull of a stretch too.
Dwarves bathing in a fountain isn't a stretch, it's just plain weird. And no Tom Bombadil is uforgiveable, hence the four out of five stars. That Jackson would rather have a Hitchcockian cameo and leave out Bombadil is proof of both a sense of humor and a blatant disgregard for Tolkien and his fans.
Having said that, these Blu-Rays are visuall and sonically most excellent. So then. Be excellent to each other and treat you and your family and friends to a Friday or Saturday or Sunday-if-Monday-is-a-holiday Hobbit Fest!
Four stars means tis very recommendamundo! Trust me...I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

The transfers are not the best I've seen but they are pretty darn good and not just for the moolah!
Two words. Kinda. Sorta.
(1) CARY
(2) GRANT

"My Favorite Wife" is a big favorite of mine as is "The Bachelor and the Bobbysoxer". "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dreamhouse" is another "Gary Granite" (ala "The Flintstones"!) favorite of mine.
"Night and Day" is good (it's about Cole Porter) but not exactly a favorite because oddly enough I've never seen more than a few minutes of it.
Highly recommended? I also sent a set to my brother and his wonderful wife, so... Yuppers!

It is not as fast as an older i7 Windows machine and the touch screen does not work as well as several other laptops I have. I gave a 14 inch Dell touch screen laptop to my older brother and it was not as fast but at least it worked without me having to constantly reboot it.
So then. I will soon return this and look for something else. I am Elite Plus and have just over (at time of this review) to return it. I have given it enough time and I just had to force a hard boot again to get it to wake up!
Maybe it is just this laptop? I do not know and neither do I care. I have almost given up. It does it when I am listening to music, watching a movie or just smurfing the web.
Samsung? Any ideas? Any help? Anything?

Yup. I bought these for my brother and his wonderful wife and like me, they really like these films. It's all about revenge and John Wick serves it up chilled to perfection.
I have the 4K versions but these HD Blu Ray discs are nearly as perfect and in fact, they are more than good enough! Highly recommended!

Open Range [DVD] [2003]
Kevin Costner's 2003 Western Open Range comes to DVD with a widescreen anamorphic transfer that preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1. Spanish subtitles are accessible. Supplemental materials include a commentary track recorded by Costner. He talks about his theories as a director, his affection for the Western genre (a type of movie that, with this film, he proves he has absorbed), and many tales about the film's production. His commentary is as earnest and heartfelt as the film itself. A second DVD is full of information on the making of the film, allowing the viewer access to almost every aspect of the process. This is a strong disc from Disney/Buena Vista that will be of particular interest to any genre enthusiast.
A really superb Western that is el fantastico!

Not gonna lie to you. Never have and never will so...Here goes!
Buy this DVD (or Blu Ray) and watch it with your husband, wife, girlfriend, boyfriend, parents, kids, entire family, neighbors, etc.
Be prepared to be thoroughly content with your purchase and to know that this is a film you will seek out to watch every month or so. Or more. It is THAT GOOD! I gave this particular copy to my brother and his wonderful wife. Then I drove 800+ miles to watch it with them. Yes. I am a serious Cinema Viewer, LOL! They truly enjoyed the film and are more than happy to have it in the collection.
Oh yes. I own a copy too. Yuppers!
This film is HIGHLY Recommended by your humble reviewer. Well... As "humble" as I can be...LOL!

I am something of a headphone-aholic and decided to buy these to see what all the fuss (or lack thereof) was about.
No buyer's remorse here. They look good, are comfortable, the ANC is more than sufficient for my needs and music sounds like...music!
I could make up some stuff like the sound stage was sooooo
W I D E my older sister could fit or how the music was sooooo transparent that I could hear right through it to the musician's soul but I'm not gonna lie to you. :-)

Look, they are for Dolby Atmos encoded films. The work just fine, look good doing so and were an upgrade to a pair of Atmos speakers that didn't look as good and were not as well designed.

Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked) - Phantom Black
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don~t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you~re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you~ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8~ Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

I already have XM Radio, do I need to buy a new receiver?
You may have to have BB hook up your XM Tuner (if possible) to the unit. If that cannot be done and you want to use that feature you can purchase an XM Tuner from BB and have it connected to the device and then have SiriusXM switch your account over to the new tuner's I.D.

Is this radio compatible with an IPhone XR? Also meaning, that I don't want to have to use an USB port to connect my phone. Thanks, any info will be GREATLY appreciated.
This particular unit does not have Bluetooth Android Auto/Apple CarPlay capabilities. you will have to upgrade to a different model, otherwise it works absolutely flawlessly for me with the Blootoof hooked up and the Apple cable pllugged into the USB-A port. Flawlessly.

Yes! It works GREAT with my new iPhone SE and I had Android prior to that and Android Auto stunk with the two different phones I tried but CarPlay works flawlessly for me with this Kenwood and I would tell you otherwise. Like Superman said, I never lie.
At last... I am soooooooooooooooooo happy with my stereo now that I have the Applie iPhone SE and CarPlay!

Shoot amazing videos and photos with the Ultra Wide, Wide, and Telephoto cameras. Capture your best low-light photos with Night mode. Watch HDR movies and shows on the 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR display ~ the brightest iPhone display yet.~ Experience unprecedented performance with A13 Bionic for gaming, augmented reality (AR), and photography. And get all-day battery life~ and a new level of water resistance.~ 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!
I am the person that asked this question and now that i have bought the iPhone SE and have used CarPlay in my Dodge Ram I shall answer it as no one else appears to ha e been able to do so.
Yes. CarPlay and this new 2nd Gen iPhone SE works a whole lot BETTER than does Android Auto and my Motorola Z3 Play. Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

Does the iPhone SE (2020 - 2nd generation) have the infamous notch?
No.
I have NOT seen a "notch" infamous or otherwise. The phone works and looks just fine.

Denon - HEOS 5 HS2 Wireless Speaker - Black
Listen to your favorite music with the Denon HEOS 5 speaker. Inside are two custom-designed tweeters, a passive radiator and two mid-woofers, delivering a hi-fi-audio experience. The singular form and handle let you transport it anywhere with ease, and the Denon HEOS 5 speaker wirelessly streams music from your phone, tablet, cloud, USB and NAS.
Why are these so cheap all of the sudden? Are they going to be discontinued/end of life now that the Denon Home is out?
Per Denon they will be discontinued but still supported and will work with the new "Home" series and all Heos related products. I asked Denon and that is what they told me.
