Monster Cable
Inexpensive speaker upgrade
I've been using my Z2s for about 1 year now... boy, what a difference. I spent a few days "auditioning" these cables when I first purchased them and the difference was immediately apparent. Bass output is so much deeper and clearer! BIG difference with the low frequencies. Without these cables, my speakers sound muddy and undefined. I didn't notice this, until I used the Z2s. Also, they ...

Marantz DV 4001 review
Video - superb! I have only used it on component video @ 480p, on my 65" Mitsubishi HDTV, but it completely blows away any other DVD player I have used. With good source material, it looks practically high def, and the color and shadow detail are awesome - very faithful to the original material. I am sure that when upconverted over HDMI it is even better, but I have not personally tried that ...

Great Player, Great Sound
I had a hard time dropping the 460 dollars on this player that would only play CDs. I have a Denon 5910 universal player that sounded amazing but wanted a separate player for only redbook CDs. Again as I said nearly 500 dollars seemed a little steep and I considered some of the Marantz CD players that were available along with a couple of Pioneer Elite players that were about the same price. ...

Crosley Comet AM/FM Radio - Oak (CR220)9 reviews

Great reception
First, it looks cooler than the picture suggests. Quality construction and deep rich sound. Aux input is great. I'm a radio snob and typically run from non-digital tuning. Between the external extendable (which don't even need) and fine tuning dial, it pulls in stations as well as my high end Sangean and Sony radios. Also plus is headphone jack.

Excellent product
I've had the Fubar III USB DAC for a couple of months now and I must say, it is awesome. My primary computer is a laptop and the onboard sound was producing less than desirable results. I went looking for a USB solution that would allow me to play my lossless audio files through my stereo with good quality. I don't require surround sound or any fancy processing, just pure stereo sound. After ...

TCC TC-750 Audiophile Phono Preamp, Pre-amp (Preamplifier)10 reviews
This company (and this product) rocks !
I was considering the purchase of a USB turntable to archive some of my old vinyl. Then I thought .. HEY !! I haver a Creative Labs X-FI Platinum card and software out the wazoo for this kind of thing. I also have a variety of high-end amps, mixers, etc. but always ended up with weak signals or horrendous buzzes when I tried to capture disk to digital.
In my frustration, I looked at eBay for ...

Cable quality is fine
I used this cable to install in-ceiling speakers in my living room. The cable quality was good and it was easy to maneuver above my ceiling and drop down the space between the walls. I have no complaints.
The only surprise was due to my misinterpretation of the product photo. I thought the photo showed a little bit of foil shielding sticking out from under the white outer jacket. This is ...

A Good Power Amp
This is a great power amp for a mid sized room. Very clean sounding and good power. I run it with a pair of B&W 683's speakers, Rega Apollo CD player and a NAD c162 Pre-amp. It definitely is a good buy. Thing to look out for is, its powered by a TOROIDAL transformer, 1 out 10 tend to start humming really loud, due to loose winding of the coil inside at the manufacturing stage, make sure if that ...

Fantastic pair of high-end headphones
Well the Ultrasone HFI-580's came in today. Guess this is a good as place as any to write my opinion. They sounded so good I had to share. :)
First impression of them. They're very meaty, much meatier than the inexpensive Koss UR-15C I was using prior. (A $20 pair of headphones (when I bought them).) The Koss don't sound "bad" per-se, especially since they've been through multi-hundred ...

Good Stuff
Exactly what I needed. I had to run two sets of surround speakers for a 7.1 setup. Due to the design of the room (wood floors and lots of windows), I had to get creative with the routing of the speaker wire. Running four sets of speaker wire would have been more difficult and time consuming. By using this wire, I only had to route to sets of this to get all four speakers hooked up with good 14 ...

Great analog outs
I had been using a SoundBlaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum for a couple of years with a pair of Swan M-200's to play lossless .wma files from my PC. The sound was ok, but not what I'd call high-end. That started a search for some better audio solutions. Targeting a card with high quality stereo analog outs, the m-audio kept getting nice reviews. That led me to give it a try, and I'm very glad I did. ...

Yep, they're worth the cost
Seriously, these cables are worth the cost. I have continuously upgraded my system with power cords, a better cd player, power cleaners, etc. and I would say these Monster Z4 speaker cables generated as big of a jump in my system's performance as anything else I've invested in. So much of what people look for when they upgrade their systems are deeper, tighter, more defined bass. These cables ...

Quality and convenience
If you want a high end cable, this is the way to go. Clear sound from a sleek, durable cable. I found the banana plugs a convenient feature, as 1. plugs make the installing/uninstalling much simpler than screwing with bare wire and 2. since they are built in, I didn't have to mess with adding plugs myself.

Worthy upgrade
I purchased this upgraded power supply to improve the sound of my Audiophile Products Fubar III USB DAC / Headphone Amplifier. This product does not disappoint. The sound is more full with the supplier. It's hard to describe the exact difference in the sound, but it is definitely better. This upgrade is a necessity if you want to improve the sound of your DAC.

Fine matching speakers
Matches the compact amp and cd player excellently. For a great sound from small 2-way speakers, these are fine. Excellent for a bedroom stereo system. Benefits from enhanced power cable and audio cable connects to its amp. Clear, warm sound. More than adequate bass.
Soft-domed tweeter. Price is right, too.
