...And it does it well! I bought this for use at my desk as I don't always remember to bring a mini-jack cable and the necessary mini-jack to USB-C cable so that I can plug into the radio on my desk.
I no longer want or need to hook up to that radio because... This little speaker is wonderful! It plays loud enough that I can annoy people but then, who is annoyed by Sinatra, and is still more than detailed in it's playback to hear musical nuances at low volume.
How's that for pseudo snobbery?! LOL! I highly recommend this Motorola Mod! The battery powers only the speaker (not the phone) and it lasts for several hours! I use it every single day since I bought it and again, I can highly recommend this to people I know and love and even you guys that I don't know or love, LOL!
It is that good a device. Is it "bulky" or "heavy"? Well, that depends upon whether or not you're 12" tall. If you are then yes. It is bulky and heavy. If you're taller than 12", then no. You can easily carry this unit around with you. ;-)

Look, movies are meant to make us smile. I know, I know...Some people feeeel that a movie should make you "think", should make you be "more aware". I think. I am aware. I just want to escape reality for a bit and enjoy myself.
This film does just that. It is FUN! For those that feeeel otherwise, that feeeel a movie should give you angst and make you empathetic to whatever? Go watch the classic film, "Sullivan's Travels".

I usually drink iced tea and those expensive "energy" beverages, but, and everybody has a big but so it's time to talk about mine when it comes to caffeinated beverages, this thing has usurped the "energy" drink for me!
I start my day with a cup o' joe. Well...actually two cups. Maybe three. And I make all of 'em with real sugar, real coffee and real milk. The foamitizerizationalizing of this machine is great! It makes the milk all frothy and foamy and I use REAL milk! Sometimes I use REAL Kefir or even a mix of Kefir and cream for extra calories!
If it's a cold morning, I make my coffee HOT. If not, then I ice it up and enjoy it just as much! I'm saving enough money to go to Australia (!) by using this baby instead of buying several "energy" drinks a day! I kid you not!
And the beverages it brews are superb-a-mundo! Highly recommend? You got that right pardner! I use the K-Cups it came with and additional ones I purchased (Columbian) as well as the adaptor I bought to allow me to brew freshly ground Java!
So, If you're considering one of these brewers, ponder no more my friends! It does exactly what it says, does it well several times a day and if you're a caffeine nut like me, wakes you up for a whole lot less than several cans of "energy" drinks!
Highly recommended, indeed! Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

The Pioneer GM-DX874 four-channel amplifier delivers 100 watts RMS at 4 ohms to each of your front and rear speakers for powerful music. CTA-2006 compliant, this highly efficient Class D technology provides impressive, high-quality power in a compact chassis. The frequency response extends up to 50,000 Hz, supporting crystal-clear Hi-Res Audio Certified playback. The GM-DX874 uses high-grade electronic components and gold-plated RCA connections to ensure maximum performance. You can configure your amplifier into 3-channel mode (4 ohm loads) to create a strong front soundstage (2x 75 watts RMS) with tight bass from the bridged subwoofer (1x 300 watts RMS). The speaker-level inputs allow you to install this amp in a factory system without RCA connections. Built-in high-pass and low-pass filters let you optimize the sound for your vehicle's interior. A wired bass control remote also lets you easily control the amount of bass from the subwoofer output (SW).
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.

Apple - iPhone 11 Pro Max 256GB - Midnight Green (Verizon)
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!

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!

This Roku Ultra HD TV streaming player includes JBL headphones to enjoy your content privately and an Ethernet port for a wired connection.
I just bought one today and it goes back tomorrow and all because it DEMANDS that I enter a credit card number and PII, Personally Identifiable Information. Why is this necessary to register and use a Roku or any device for that matter?

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!

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!

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. ;-)
