Great Start To New Genearation

I have both a ps4 and xbox one. I love both systems very much. As much as people are saying there is a difference in the games when you do not have them side by side you are not going to notice much of a difference. Right now i use my xbox one more than my ps4 because of all the media options it has and because i love being able to snap between apps so quickly. also right now the xbox one has the standby feature that lets me turn off my xbox and not lose where i am at in the game as soon as i turn it back on its back to playing my game. While there is much to like on this new system there are a lot of little bugs that need to be fixed. Kinect voice recognition is not great. you can manage your storage and you also cannot see your battery life. i know that lost of these things will be fixed over time. but if your interested in the new xbox then i defintely recommend it .
My Best Buy number: 954809698
What's great about it: new features, games,
What's not so great: game selection is small. has a lot of little bugs that need to be worked out
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Stereo Headset, But Expensive
on December 3, 2013
Posted by: masc360
from Bay Area
I was looking for a pair of headphones to use with my new PS4. But i also needed a pair that i could use with my ipad, and my phone. did not have too much money and all of the headset that seemed to fit that bill were over $200. i was able to score these during black friday for 99.99 I would say for that price they are pretty good. they can be used for gaming or on the go. the mic is removable and the mobile cable that is included has a built in mic so you dont have to use the gaming mic to use your phone. my issues with the headset are more that they are analog only, so you a limited to RCA or headphone output. Again for $99 this seems to be the case for most headphones in this price range, but for $200 i think you are asking a bit much. I do like that the headphones are a copy of Turtles Beaches XP 7 just without the surround sound amplifier. I will be getting an Astro Mixamp for x-mas. which im sure will make these good sounding headphones sound better playing games or watching movies. The one thing I cannot complain about is the sound of these headphones. everything i have thrown towards them has sounded fantastic.

What's great about it: Comfortable and easy to use
What's not so great: $200 price tag way above what these headphones offer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Loved it For 4 Days

Let me start off by saying Im not bashing best buy or Astro. the headphones sounded great when i got home and plugged them in. only issue that started happening was the mixamp would freeze and cut out sound every so often. so i did some research online it looks like in this 2013 edition the mixamp have a problem with the power supply when it receiving it from a console. ex plugged into the usb of your xbox 360 or ps3. you can plug it into a usb wall socket and it will just fine problem is with my ps3 i am then unable to use the chat function of the playstation 3. this was a big problem with me. i returned the headset to best buy and have yet to find a headset that works for me. i was so bummed that this edition has that problem because i had loved the headset up until then.
What's great about it: great sounding, easy to set up, easy to use
What's not so great: quality control problems
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great Origin Story

I know most people did not enjoy this movie as much as i did, and i will also agree that the title is misleading in a sense this movie is not about Robin Hood as much is it about how he becomes Robin Hood. i thought the acting was top notch and the cinematography was excellent. i recommend this movie to anyone that has an interest in what motivated the man that became Robin Hood, to become him.

How many speakers will it support?

I'm new to the world of AV receivers...

How many speakers will this support? I've got four(4) inside the house for surround sound, and two(2) on the porch. Will it support all six, in two zones?

Thanks for your help!
It will support two zones, but you need an exterior amp to power the speakers on the second zone.
