The screen is the best yet for my wife and it was easily set up and use. This is a high quality television and the one she used prior to this was an excellent 3D setup with a fast processor and high refresh rates.
But this one? Is vastly superior. My thanks to my local Best Buy in Mira Mesa, CA!

Unlike the Dell I purchased along with this Asus, the Asus flat out works great!
The keycaps have not lost their ID markers, the touchpad works flawlessly and overall this is the finest laptop I have owned from Best Buy to date! Highly recommended?
YES!!!! It is fast, runs cool, runs quiet and does everything I need without fault!
And id I mention that the alphanumeric markings on the keyboard are still there? Unlike my new Dell reviewed elsewhere they are! And the touchpad works! My Dell doesn't work with any degree of consistency but this ASUS is, again, FLAWLESS!
I have zero problems and zero regrets with this excellent, quality built laptop! Thank you Best Buy and ASUS!

The touchpad sucks. It is intermittent. The keys have already started to lose their designation. I sent Dell an email explaining if they don't help I will simply destroy the laptop and never buy another. I am frustrated with Dell.

Other than a weird " mosaic" look to some black areas on the screen the picture is great. But..
I absolutely HATE that this TV with my Denon AVR-X4300H. My previous TV didn't have the Denon turn on automatically when I turned on the TV and then drive me NUTSO by trying to upset me (and it does!) by going through and turning on every source connected but never the one I want which is usually nothing at all.
I HATE that and I know it's the new TV because the previous one didn't do that. Hisense? Help!
I have unplugged all sources to stop this but then when I want to watch a UHD Disc I have to get back there and plug it back in. I am handicapped and this really sucks. I've looked and cannot find why this TV does this so I am hoping Hisense and make some sense of this and tell me where to turn it OFF!!!!
Again, I absolutely HATE this "feature" of turning on media sources and being a handicapped senior I am about to give up and throw this piece in the trash!
H E L P. Please?

I have HEOS equipment throughout my home and uses this particular HEOS Link along with my vintage Sony Receiver to supply music from my Pandora, SiriusXM, Amazaon Music Unlimited UHD and more to my garage music system.
This device is great! It takes any stereo with RCA inputs and turns it into a modern streaming stereo!
I have had HEOS products (all bought at Best Buy) for several years now and I can say without hesitation that HEOS and Denon/Marantz make the finest and easiest multi-room home music system there is!
I may have to get one more of these for a vintage console stereo that I am working on.
As I said, I have used Denon HEOS equipment for several years now and have purchased it all from Best Buy and give many HEOS speakers as presents to family and friends because in my estimation, HEOS is THE BEST!

I got these for my daughter and she says they are excellente'! The folks at the San Diego BB (Mira Mesa Blvd.) were very helpful in my choosing these AirPods as I was unsure which version my daughter had described to me but they were able to help me choose the right ones!
These AirPods work great with her iPhone and the charging case does its job perfectly. She told me she highly recommends these to anyone with an iPhone because of quality of construction and sound reproduction along with ease of use

I bought this for my Sister-In-Law and she says it is FANTASTIC!
It does EXACTLY what she needs and wants. Nothing more and nothing less. It is fast (clocked a speednet download of 289 Mbps, plays both music and movies (in FHD!) easily and has yet to "buffer" either.
They have their Pandora, Amazon Music and SiriusXM accounts on there along with the HEOS application for their Denon HEOS speakers and their Denon AVR-750S (all bought at Best Buy!) and can easily access these functions and devices throughout their home.
The battery has averages 12 hours of use so far and they often just close the lid and leave it on for quick(er) access.
This Chromebook is just want the needed and it also does everything the want it to do. Highly recommended?

This Media Player is SUPERB! The only thing better than this is how well the installation was done by Best Buy.
There was a bit of difficulty fitting it in my Mustang but the Best Buy Install Tech, Dylan did an excellent job. The only "problem" was with my OEM Satellite antenna was not hooked up and instead the one that came with the new SiriusXM tuner I also bought at Best Buy was used.
I contacted BB and Dylan is going to remedy that for me soon and I am grateful for the superb installation he did on this unit!
It is nice to be able to play a CD when the mood strikes me and this unit works superbly with my iPhone 14 and Apple CarPlay. I have a physical handicap and the front and rear cameras that are connected to this really help me to park my car and again, I have Dylan to thank for that.
Highly recommended? Yes!

I bought this watch to replace a Withings that burned a watch shaped "tattoo" into my wrist. I am also handicapable and sometimes prone to falling and this watch will call for help if I happen to knock myself out or otherwise cannot get up.
The battery life is awful but I knew that going in. The watch itself is great as are the features.

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.

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!

To the Kenwood exper - I have an appointment with BB Car Installation on Jan. 11, 2020. I went there last weekend and the problem persisted in front of three technicians so hopefully they will just install a new unit that works. My phone works just fine in my 2018 Dodge Ram with Android Auto so I too think it is a faulty radio. Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Where is the serial number on the ACC1200?

It should be located on a sticker on the unit. Said sticker should also have the password and the MAC address on there. Just make certain to look for "Serial No.", "SN" or some such identifying nomenclature. Hope this helps! Thx!

Would it be beneficial to use more than one extender? What if I were to put a couple upstairs and a couple more downstairs?

I myself use two of these at different locations of our home. They work great and as I said in answering another question, if you have a device that is not WiFi capable but it has an RJ45 input jack, you can simply run a Cat5 or Cat6 cable directly from one of the RJ45 output jacks on the extender to the device and it will work just fine! All the best!

Will this help extend the signal for all my ring cameras

If you search for this particular extender and then enter the password it should do just what you need. Remember to look for the name of your original WiFi router with an _2GEXT or an _5GEXT after it. If your device sees both, choose the one with the best signal strength accordingly matched to everything else in your setup.

Can this handle the new fiber 200gb speed internet i have from metronet

I don't have the specs in front of me but I think the unit is "only" Gigbit capable. My fastest is a mere 400 to 500 mbps via wireless. It's more than sufficient for me but your needs may require more. :-) If you need 200 megabits per second vs 200 gigabits per second (it may have been a typo on your part?) you should be fine with this extender.

I have everything hooked up, the green light is on the Netgear device. However, when I now go to my laptop to connect the wifi, it doesn't except the password that I use for my original wifi (Belkin) router. So, what am I to enter as the password?

If you have a 2.5 and 5 gig system make certain both indicator lights are green. No then, if you are using your original (Belkin) wireless router and haven't changed that password, it should still work. Check that router to see if you are using the right password (it's usually on the side or bottom of the router) as I have often forgotten it and had to go back and look to make certain I was entering it correctly. Another thing you can do if whatever you are trying to connect is close to the new Netgear device is to simply hardwire it via a short Cat5 or Cat6 cable via one of the ports on the Netgear to the network RJ45 input (provided said device has one) on the device you want to join your network. That's just one reason I bought this Netgear extender, because not all my stuff is wireless and this extended allows me to run a Cat5/6 right to such devices. . I did this with one of my devices and it works great! All the best!

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.
 

How long does the charge last.

For me and my brother, sister-in-law and my son, about 10 to 12 hours. So far. Sweet!

Use it for clear, natural-sounding phone calls, or accessing your phone's Siri or your Google Assistant. Up to 12 hours per charge.
 

Does it support aptx-LL??? What version of Bluetooth is used? I can't find that info anywhere...

I don't believe so but if you believe you can tell the difference in the various variations of Bluetoof then you've got better ears than me! In all honesty, I think, not feel, these 'phones do an excellent job of reproducing music. I listen to a lot of music and these do not wear me out like some 'phones are prone to do. If that variant of Bluetoof is important to you, double check with Bose my friend! Good luck and all the best!

Hello, has anyone used them in the gym? Please opinions.

Yup. I just tuck 'em under my t-shirt and keep the volume low. So far, so great. Good luck!

I am very small. Will this Soundware companion be comfortable and can I lie down with it on to listen in bed?

I don't wear mine in bed but a friend and co-worker has done so and says he felt no discomfort. His neck is probably on the small side. Mine is around 19" or so but the Bose²® Soundwear Companion™ fits me well and is comfortable enough for me to wear for several hours. I just haven't fallen asleep with it on. Yet. ;-)
