It makes a decent point and shoot on AUTO mode, and its low light handling is acceptable. It uses AA batteries so you don't need expensive... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~409414897284 Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:26:08 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_409414897284?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_409413258884?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - I honestly don't know how Bose gets away with it, selling inferior product at exotic prices. The tiny drivers are not up to the task and the sound is harsh and irritating. The bass driver is muddy sounding and is nowhere near as good as a even the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~409413258884 Tue, 4 Dec 2007 16:12:50 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_409413258884?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_293437410948?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - The main failure of this system is the satellite speakers, which sound marginal. There's a huge difference between satellites that have tiny 2 or 3 inch drivers and ones that have 4 inch drivers like the HTA-9706. This system is cheap if you can find... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~293437410948 Mon, 18 Dec 2006 01:07:47 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_293437410948?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_293436952196?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - KLH's advantage has always been good quality at a very low price. These speakers belt out good sound for their size, and though their design is rather dated they are unobtrusive looking which is a good thing. Frequency response is pretty good. The... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~293436952196 Mon, 18 Dec 2006 00:56:10 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_293436952196?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_293436362372?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - The PS3 is a well built, rugged and works great. I've been using mine for years without a hitch, and its 8 battery capacity (4 capacity for C & D cells) plus socket for 9V makes charging lots of batteries a snap. The case is large and heavy but that... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~293436362372 Mon, 18 Dec 2006 00:49:52 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_293436362372?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_293435444868?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - I have both the PS1 and the PS3 from rayovac, and I love them both. The PS1 is great for keeping plugged in a wall socket in your workshop, and it charges batteries without damaging them. It is slower than the PS3 because it charges at a lower... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~293435444868 Mon, 18 Dec 2006 00:40:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_293435444868?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222452354692?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - For the price, the VSX-515K is a bargain. You get 660 watts, programmable crossover, digital signal processing and so many other bells and whistles you may not use them all. Its all good. The only gripes I can possibly have are that it doesn't have... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222452354692 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 19:14:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222452354692?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222451830404?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - KLH again has somehow made a speaker thats full of cheap hardware yet manages to sound surprisingly good. I picked up a pair of these for $200 at Best Buy and haven't regretted it. Construction is flimsy with something like 1/2" MDF covered by fake... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222451830404 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:59:37 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222451830404?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222451109508?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - The main and surround speakers are nowhere near the 8-ohm ratings. I measured them at 3.6 ohms, and 6.7 ohms for the centre channel. This could be dangerous for an amplifier thats expecting 6 to 8 ohm speakers. That being said, the HTA9706 is... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222451109508 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:47:11 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222451109508?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222450257540?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - If you are buying KLH speakers you obviously don't have much cash. Somehow through the magic of low priced chinese labor and "good enough" engineering, KLH manages to make a set of speakers that will give you good sound at a retail price that will make... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222450257540 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:37:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222450257540?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222449798788?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - Bose still sells this rather archaic speaker system and says its a "flagship". The flagship apparently is a galleon, because speaker technology has changed by leaps and bounds since the 901 was debuted. The series VI changes seem to be more tweaks than... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222449798788 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:28:40 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222449798788?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222449012356?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - Its difficult to call this an equalizer, its actually a preamp equalizer with very few actual settings available to the user. Bose recommends this equalizer to 901 owners because of the inherent frequency limitations of the 901. The bass and high... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222449012356 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:18:34 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222449012356?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222448815748?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - Good replacements for crappy OEM door speakers. Sound quality is good, bass weak but nothing unusual considering small woofer cone... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222448815748 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:11:57 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222448815748?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222448488068?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - I have no idea where SDAT makes its stuff, but for the price they seem to make quality items. This 4-way speaker has a beefy magnet, strong poly cones and can take a lot of watts. Cone travel is considerable and it gives a lot of sound for very little... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222448488068 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:08:03 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222448488068?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222448094852?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - Not everybody needs monster sound. These are good for replacing OEM speakers since the magnets are smaller the basket isn't so deep. This makes them easier to mount in some cars that have depth limits or whose trunklid springs are very close to the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222448094852 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 18:02:09 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222448094852?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_222447898244?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - This amplifier is adequate if you want to drive all 4 speakers in your car, and don't have a need for thousands of watts of power. The amp is physically big, so mounting can be an issue in cramped locations. Usually rectangular amps are easier to fit... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~222447898244 Fri, 3 Mar 2006 17:54:39 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_222447898244?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221743648388?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - It doesn't take a genius to determine the Bose 901 sounds horrible, all it takes is a simple side-to-side comparison. I own a set of 901 series VI's and can without hesitation tell you that the Bose speakers sound BAD. I mean really bad! I'm just... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221743648388 Fri, 24 Feb 2006 09:23:53 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221743648388?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221585116804?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - I picked up one new for $70 and the print quality is fantastic. Another benefit is canon doesn't skimp on the ink, and ink tanks are very cheap compared to other brands. The black tank is twice as big so you won't run out of black ink very often... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221585116804 Wed, 22 Feb 2006 17:33:27 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221585116804?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221583150724?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - A lot of things have changed, but a lot has stayed the same. The 2.2 EcoTec is a surprisingly powerful and zippy engine. It loves to rev, though the automatic transmission shifts very softly and tends to wander while driving. Interior changes from the... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221583150724 Wed, 22 Feb 2006 17:15:25 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221583150724?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/content_221581708932?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - There's nothing really exciting about the car, but its average transportation at an average price. The 2.2 feels less powerful than what the specs indicate, and the 3-speed automatic is disappointing. You can get cheaper subcompacts with 4-speed auto... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~221581708932 Wed, 22 Feb 2006 17:04:06 GMT http://www.epinions.com/content_221581708932?linkin_id=8003929 http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-6620-52DBBF6-39382675-prod4?linkin_id=8003929 rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author Savage13 - Lets get real on this motherboard....is it for newbies, is it for pros only? Well it is for both. Abit has come up with a dual celeron system that is a no-brainer to install. I personally encountered no difficulties with installation of the Rev. 1.0... http://www.epinions.com/content/submit.html/comment_~1363762 Fri, 2 Jun 2000 18:42:49 GMT http://www.epinions.com/cmd-review-6620-52DBBF6-39382675-prod4?linkin_id=8003929
