5 comments about TDK CDRW80TWN10 10 Pack of 700MB 4x CD-RW Discs in Slim Jewel Cases.
  1. HARD TO FIND ITEM.WORKS GREAT WITH BOTH OF MY CD CUTTERS.I ORDERED THESE AGAIN.ALSO VERY FAST DELIVERY.SUPER GREAT VALUE


  2. I'm a solo performer.Its critical for me to record my performances for self-evaluation.Using CD-R's all the time proves very costly and actually wasteful.I couldn't find the CD-RW's anywhere in local retail stores...only for computer.These discs at Amazon are perfect.I've been using just one over and over again since receiving a box of 10 .They're excellant and worth a hell of a lot more than their price.I'm set for years!!!!

  3. TDK CD-R80CB100 CD-R 80min, 700 MB, 52x (100-Pack Spindle)

    I am extremely disappointed.

    CD RW's are supposed to be just that - rewritable. So far, out of 12 used (out of 30 purchased), none
    have worked more than once, and 2 didn't even work the first time. A clear breach of warranty.

    I don't expect RW's to last forever. The better quality ones I have used in the past wore out after
    several uses - but probably around 10. At this point I would be satisfied to get 5 good uses out of
    them. But 1 use before being unusable is ridiculous.

    I have been too busy to contact Amazon, and I am still trying to find a number or e-mail to contact
    TDK. (By law I can go after the manufacturer and all sellers). But since you have asked for my
    review, I am giving it.


  4. It's impossible to find Music CD-RW's in the local stores. Most retailers won't carry them because it's not a fast moving product. Thanks TDK for making them available online. Most brands don't even make such a product. It's a shame that CD recorder manufacturers made it a requirement to use them in the first place.


  5. I recently purchased a 10 pack of the TDK Music CR-RW Recordable discs. The price was good. These work well for recording records, tapes or other recordings which can later be recorded to a one off CD-R recording. TDK Recordable Discs are certified tested which should make them more fool proof for most users.

5 comments about beyerdynamic DT 880 Premium Headphones.
  1. This is for the 990 headphones (I don't know why the reviews are for different series below). I recently got these and broke them in with 100+ hours of loud pink noise so they should sound as they're "going to" at this point. The construction is good and they are very comfortable around the ear. The headband could use a lil more padding perhaps, but no biggie.

    Now before I go into how they sound, I'll let you know where I'm coming from. This is my first pair of "real" headphones besides the cheap $20-30 sport kind, and I didn't audition any other brands before buying these, so this isn't really good for a headphone comparison. I do have very very very good speakers in my car (Dynaudio running off a McIntosh amp; JL Audio sub running off Phoenix Gold amp) and good tower speakers at home (Saturn - same company that makes Earthquake subwoofers - running off a NAD stereo amp). I'm running these headphones off the NAD amp.

    After the pink noise break-in, I tried out various tracks - mainly trance, rock, and hip-hop. Generally, these sound very good and I'm happy with my purchase. I can hear a lot of the high frequency detail I get from my Dynaudios and good high clarity (ex. a complex Radiohead track). There is a good amount of bass and vocals sound very nice.

    However, there does seem to be a slight bit of muddling in the mid range when there's a lot going on (vocals sometimes less sharp/clear when a lot of other sounds are going on. I'd prefer a little more clarity overall. The low end is there, but might overshadow the mids at times. The lows are good, but they don't really "hit" like I'd really like. Some Jay-Z tracks that go way low and slam don't really do it with these headphones. That low low thump is there, but sounds distant. The low end does a better job with the more standing bass wave like from a bass guitar or synthesized.

    As I said, I'm comparing these to a top end system so in a ways I'd be a little dissapointed if they DID sound as good as my car after all I put in it! That being said, all-in-all, I think they really do sound good and are very comfortable to wear. They play a lot of detail and 99% of the people buying these will think they're the best thing ever because it'll probably be the best they've heard. Plus, for the money (they were on Amazon discount over $100 off retail when I got these for $260) it's a great buy.

    The Grado 325s were considered, but are supposed to kill your head after 30 min. Sennheiser's were considered.


  2. The DT 880 headphones are great. The sound is transparent and the treble is quite open. The sound stage does not feel congested at all. The bass can go deep and I think it might have a little too much bass. The mid range feels slightly recessed, but I managed to get use to after the first two or three hours of use. These headphones require quite a bit of juice before they reach their potential. I suggest matching these headphones with a dedicated quality headphone amp.


  3. I was recently in the market for a new set of headphones and my audition process was lengthy and borderline obsessive. The result was a pretty good picture of what's out there for a reasonable ($600 or less) price. After listening to Sennheisers, Grados, AKGs, Etymotics, and Beyer, I came to the conclusion that the Beyer DT770s are nearly perfect for recording, monitoring, and mixing. I didn't get a chance to demo the DT880s, which some people rank amongst the very finest transducers in the world, but I'm sure they're even better.

    The AKG 240s are popular with the home studio/bedroom producer crowd (yeah, I too have a pair laying around) and since the 240s and DT770s are in the same general price range, I'll compare them most thoroughly. I've said this elsewhere, but my general feels are, Grados are best for low-power devices (e.g. iPods, Walkmans), Sennheisers are amongst the best for audiophilic listening, and Etymotics (and now Shures) are best for revealing every minute detail of a sound. Those opinions are based on owning and living with many pairs for a long time.

    So, where do Beyers fit in? They're awesome for anyone who wants a sealed headphone for noise isolation. They don't reduce noise to the extent that a canalphone like the Etymotics will, but then again, some people prefer not to stick tiny audio transducers way into their ears. Plus, sharing is not a problem. The DT770s will provide reasonable isolation even in noisy environments. They're a great choice for monitoring with drums. As a percussionist, my problem was always finding a headphone that cut out enough of my playing so that I didn't have to blast my eardrums every time I played with a click track.

    I tried the AKG 240s in these types of situations, but they fit substantially looser and a fair amount of noise leaks in. The fit is also a problem when you need to move. The Beyers firmly grip your head. There's not a lot of pressure, but at the same time, you can shake your head around and they won't move. They AKGs were always fatiguing after an hour or so, but the Beyers were so comfortable that I could all but forget I was wearing them.

    Sonically, the Beyers are impressive. My AKGs always seemed light on bass. I'm not a bass fanatic, but when there is heavy bass, the headphones should translate it without scaling it back. The DT770s were appropriately punchy when it was called for, and subtle, but present the rest of the time. I never felt like the bass had a distinct roll off in the audible frequency range. With a lot of headphones, once you get below 60Hz, the bass power reduces noticeably, but not so much with the Beyers.

    The midrange was quite smooth and blended seamlessly with the very precise highs. I wouldn't go so far as to call them crystalline, but they were very detailed and accurately reproduced the higher frequencies that get lopped off by lesser headphones. Overall, the sound was slightly more aggressive than with my Sennheiser HD600s. I think the HD600s are better if you just want to listen for pleasure, but when you're in the studio, you need something up-front and energized.

    When I heard the DT770s, I was listening through a Digidesign interface, which had a dedicated headphone amplifier. This is critical, because without proper amplification, these headphones are perfectly capable of sounding dull and lifeless with anemic bass and little dynamic range. They're not going to work with your iPod unless you add a portable headphone amp. Similarly, they'll play reasonably loud out of your computer, but the precision and dynamic range won't be there. The DT770s are rated at 250 ohms making them sufficiently high to require more voltage than your portable devices can deliver. It's not like they'll make an ugly sound running directly out of your iPod - just that with extra power, they really become something special.

    Overall, I highly recommend the DT770s to anyone looking to set up a home studio. They're analytical enough to reveal hidden details, but they still sound pleasing and won't fatigue your ears, even after long sessions. If you're wanting to listen directly from a portable device, the Grado SR60s will work much better. If you're wanting to listen for pleasure, I think the very high end Sennheisers are a little more musical. However, for all your recording/mixing/monitoring tasks, the Beyers are great. I highly recommend them


  4. clearest highs i've heard in a pair of cans; full sound with well-tuned bass (maybe not for hip-hop and electronica bass-lovers, though); SUPER comfortable; classic studio style.

    however, be warned - works just alright straight out of an ipod or cd player, but can be a battery hog and really only does its best work when properly amplified, even with something as simple as a CMoy "Altoids-tin" op-amp - this really evens out the sound and make everything seems so much more present, and usually a little less dry, too.


  5. I am so pleased with these headphones. I haven't auditioned
    the more expensive "audiophile class" headphones, but I doubt
    my ears could detect the difference. But then again, these may
    be as good as it gets, at least for the price. My primary genre
    is classical music, and I'm trying to compose this review as I'm
    listening to Brahm's 4th. Very difficult.

    I'm sure what one hears depends in large part on the equipment up front. I'm listening through a thoroughly antique CD changer (SONY CDP-C50). Nevertheless, I'm just so happy with these cans!

5 comments about Cables To Go - 40019 - Optical To Coaxial Digital Audio Converter.
  1. If you need a long coaxial digital run from your PS3 to your surround processor, this unit can help you out. Simple, effective, thrifty in comparison to an 8+ meter optical digital run. Allows the use of a more affordable and digitally stable 75 ohm coaxial cable for extended cable lengths. Sound quality was initially thin on the low end, but really solidifed over the next week if left continually plugged in. I've experienced no problems with any dropout, even with the higher bitrates of Dolby Digital and DTS offered by Blu-ray disc. Though the unit looks and feels a little flimsy, it is surprisingly effective. So if you are still using Dolby Digital and DTS, connect your short HDMI run directly to your monitor and let this little guy get a long coaxial digital around the room for you.


  2. It works, but at random moments (approximately once or twice an hour during continuous playback), the sound will go out for a second and then go back on again. Find a different brand.


  3. What else can one ask for for such a simple device does such a simple thing? It works well between a DVD player and Bose system.

    Yes, there is a brick, but it's much smaller than I expected. My option is to either get this inexpensive device with a small brick, or shell out $200 for a psyclone hdmi/toslink switch, which is 100 times in size. There are also manual toslink switches out there, but I cannot fully remote control the system.


  4. I have this plugged in behind my TV, and it has worked flawlessly with my Xbox 360. Never had to even look at it since I originally hooked it up!


  5. I bought this item to go with my Altec Lansing ADA885 speaker system and Xbox video game system. The sound system is older (~2000) but still has some of the best sound quality around, made much better by this piece of equipment!

    The Xbox outputs digital audio over optical, but the speaker system only has a digital coaxial input. With this, I get full Dolby Digital 5.1 on DVDs and video games. I could not believe how great music CDs sounded through it as well.

    I had no problems hooking it up. Remember the converter does not come with any audio cables. Axis 83601 1-Meter Optical Digital TosLink Cable I used this optical cable (very good quality as well) and my speakers came with the coaxial cable. Very much worth the price for the extreme boost in sound quality.

    I've been using it for about a week now for 5 to 6 hours at a time and had none of the problems other reviewers have experienced. Sound quality is great and I've never had it cut out.

  1. It was surprisingly hard to find this item, partly because USB cables are so common but the varieties of connectors are poorly represented or described in ads. Stores that carry the Olympus cameras that use this cable (mine is a Stylus 600), do not carry the cable separately. Very pleased and may order a second.

5 comments about NGHP LRRX-2 AAA-TX (Extra RF Transmitter For 433.92 MHz).
  1. I already had the NGHP ATH-433 RF REMOTE CONTROL EXTENDER 433.92 MHz FREQ which supports one remote. I purchased this so I could have a second remote extended. Works perfect!


  2. This product does exactly what it claims. I replaced two other RF remote extenders with this product and it works with any of my four different remotes. Even through walls.


  3. I almost ordered this additional IR transmitter but since this ships from a different vendor it may be better to go ahead and get the entire second unit instead, like I did, if you know what I mean. This way you get the backup receiver unit as well. Hint.


  4. Hate to disagree with the 3 previous reviews, but my extra transmitter simply does not work. I have tried every possible combination of different remotes, fresh batteries, different battery positions in the remote, location, etc.

    Strangely, the original unit works satisfactorily, but not great. It seems to work ok with some remotes but not others. Best results are with an Innovage Unit. My objective is to control an RCA DirecTV Receiver from a distance of about 30 ft. in an adjacent room. The original RCA remotes don't work well at all.


  5. Although my initial 433.92 MHz set-up worked well, I am rather disappointed that this spare transmitter/battery did not function out of the box. It was not the battery - probably an error in frequency or in the transmitter's manufacturing. I returned the unit and am waiting to see if they send a replacement which works properly. Good quality control is important and was lacking in this case.

5 comments about Skullcandy INK'D Earbuds - Silver.
  1. These earbuds like most other sound isolating earbuds I have tried can be annoying to wear if you are moving around a lot. Since the earbuds make a tight seal inside your ear, any movement in the cable will be conducted through to your ears. Therefore, I would not recommend these for wearing during a workout. This is not a fault of these earbuds alone but every pair that I have ever tried, so I will not knock these earbuds on that basis. That being said these are great earbuds, just don't buy them for jogging.

    The sensitivity of these buds is much better than my standard iPod earbuds and several other aftermarket earbuds that I have tried (Panasonic, Altec Lansing, Phillips). I have probably tried 5 or so different sets of earbuds in the $20-$40 range over the last few years and after a little break-in time and finding the right size gel pad (3 sizes are included) to fit your ears these easily blow them all away. The bass, midrange and high end are all good. These really shine in the bass and low mids compared to most other earbuds and since they are so sensitive you can keep the volume lower and save battery life on your player. You will hear things that you have never heard before in your music, especially if you are using the standard issue buds.

    Since there are 3 different gels to choose from as far as fit, these are also more comfortable for long listening sessions then other earbuds I have tried. They also offer good sound isolation, so these are great for work or in a moving vehicle.

    They are light in your ears, light on your battery and light on your wallet while providing excellent sound. Give them a little break-in time and you will love them... I did.


  2. OK guys, heres a review from nobody... these things are proply beltaz!!! the sound quality is unparalelled by any other in ear headphones, i owned a pair of sony's way back when, they were 90 british pounds, uncomfortable and the bass was overwhelming. i have owned various pairs of cheaper in-ears and most of the time they were tinny and near unbearable to listen to on high volume. i have owned a few pairs of neckbands. . . sony and phillips, the phillips being the better of the two in the same price range, but both allowing far too much outside noise in, absolutely no good for public transport.
    Alright, on to the SC's they get four stars because 4 and 3/4 isnt an option. the only beef i have is that i keep losing the smallest size earpiece(my fault but you cant just buy replacements, therefore i am on my third set [gona glue it this time.])
    with these things in, you can listen to your music at half the volume of any neckband headphones and not hear a damn thing anyone is saying to you and they wont hear an annoying mosquito-ish noise.
    the sound quality is something you would expect from a high dollar pair and although sound can travel through the cable during heavy movement, i barely notice it.
    i would advise not to pay more than 12 dollars for them cos they are probably on sale at your nearest electronics store for the same, if not less. (last pair,sam goody $8)
    Honestly... someone you know will probably have a pair, give em a try and you will be impressed.
    hope this helps, i really cant sy enough good things about em.
    peace.


  3. These are definitely the best headphones I've ever owned hands and eyeballs down. After going through at least 20+ pairs of headphones in my personal audio experiences, from the expensive to the not so expensive, I am finally in audio heaven with these things. You don't even need to turn your player (I have a Sony NWZ-A728)anywhere near the max, I keep mine 4 notches from the Min., that's how much output these INK'D things are bangin out (100MW In your ears!) These are the only pair of headphones I've ever had that made my brain rattle, and I'm being serious my I felt my brain vibrating. For Real. And that's with the volume nowhere near high. Plus they fit your ear really snugly. The best thing to do is when you open them and put them in your ears for the first time, make sure you're in a loud place and then slide them in, you'll notice just how much background noise they cut out, which is a lot. BUY THEM NOW! $10 is pretty much robbery for these things.


  4. I have had 3 pairs of i-pod earbuds and they have broken down every time within 3 months ,of good care at low volume use. This spending spree has cost me $150 in total. So I decided to give these a try for $15.99. They are more compfortable than the i-pod earbuds(which felt like arock in my ear!).They are so soft that if their is no music playing i forget that their in my ear. Also these block outside sounds much better than i-pod ear buds(cost$50)!

    I highly suggest these:
    1. They cost under $20!
    2. They are great at blocking out outside noises ,so their is no need to crank up the volume!
    3. They look really cool!
    4. They are durable and will(with good care)last you a long time!


  5. I recently bought a pair of SkullCandy Ink'd Black headphones at Target for $16.99, quite a deal in my opinion. The night before I was considering buying SkullCandy Hesh headphones but I decided I would hold off another day and read some reviews on other SkullCandy headphones. The next day at school my friend and I were sitting in computer class, and I happened to mention to him that I was thinking about buying some SkullCandy headphones but I wasn't sure what kind. He pulled out a black pair of SkullCandy Ink'd headphones and told me they were great and he let me try them out. My first impression was, "this are earbuds they won't have the bass and noise isolation that bigger, cupped headphones would have", but I was ver wrong. I began to the play the song " Ready For Whatever" by T.I., a very bass heavy song, and without warning i began to feel thumping bass like I had never heard before even with normal-sized headphones. The next thing I noticed was that my friend was trying to talk to me, but I couldn't hear a thing he was saying, or anyone else for that matter. I was amazed such small earbuds could pack such a bass punch and isolate noise as well as these could. I asked him how much he paid and he said he got them for around $15 at Target. I was amazed at how cheap these were, but how good the sound quality was! Another friend of mine had a p[air of SkullCandy Hesh headphones and when I tried them on the bass was only a little more then on these 15$ headphones! I took off after school and went to my nearest Target and bought a pair for me and my friend, and I'm very impressed with the price and features it has. If there are any negetives on these earbuds its the fact that whenever you brush up against the cord it is very obvious in the headphones, but that is not a very big deal. They are comfortable, and the package comes with 3 different sizes of buds in case your ears are large or small. Overall I am very pleased with this product, and I will definatly spread the word on these SkullCandy headphones.

    SOUND QUALITY: 9/10 (Bass is A+, Mids and Highs are A)

    PORTABILITY: 10/10

    VALUE: 10/10 (At $15 these headphones are the steal of the year)

    COMFORTABLE: 8/10 (Sometimes the earbuds come out, but this is rare)

    DURABILITY: 8.5/10 (Earbuds are plastic, but they feel sturdy enough)

    OVERALL: 9/10

    I would definatly buy these again if they ever broke, and SkullCandy offers a lifetime warrenty if they ever malfunction so that is even better. If you break them by accident SckullCandy will fix them for half the original price.

5 comments about Soundfly SD WMA/MP3 Player Car Fm Transmitter for SD Card, USB Stick, Mp3 Players (iPod, Zune).
  1. Initially I could not get this to work with my Zune, but it's easy as pie. I just didn't plug in the other cord. I was a little miffed as to why I did not need to plug in the Zune USB cable, but I figured it out.

    Aside from the audio quality (a bit less than CD quality, which is perfectly acceptable), this device functions as described.


  2. Waste of money! Never ever think of buying this product.
    Even though it says it can do a strong Fm transmission in various FM frequencies, it works with only one frequency.

    The FM transmission quality is so bad. You get a lot of disturbance.

    I had been using another FM transmitter/mp3 player for the past 3 months, i bought that for $12!!, i bought the soundfly since my old player did not had the folder-shift option but i made a wrong decision. This product is worth only $2, not $34.

    If you are lucky, the remote will work.


  3. It works well with most of the media that it is built to use. I am currently using a PNY 4gb SDHC card. It handles both SD and SDHC.
    The Soundfly SD works well with Windows Media Player sync option as long as you allow Windows Media player convert the files. If you don't convert the files you will get a lot of what sounds like static.
    I am not sure if it is a Windows Media player thing or not, as that is the only Sync program I have.

    The reason I bought this is; I can be in as much as 4 different vehicles per day and to have a little device like this that I can just plug in to a 12 volt outlet, tune the radio to my preset frequency and have tunes is well worth the price.

    What I would love to see in the future is; to have the Soundfly SD handle an unlimited amount of files so when they some out with a 120gb SD card it will read all the files, but for now I will have to use a few different SDHC cards (which you can buy for less per album than a CDR and much more convenient than having all those CDs to carry).


  4. 4 stars because it does everything I wanted it to. That's not to say it's the best one on the market.
    A little 'tinny' build-wise but for the price that's to be expected. The only thing it wouldn't do that I wanted is display the song names on the radio. This is NOT a problem with the unit, rather a feature of the built in Ford radio system which has a TEXT button but only for CD's, when in FM mode the TEXT button is a station preset.

    By far the best feature of this device is the abiility to remember which track is being played at power down. It even seems to remember if the memory stick is removed and then put back in.


  5. I've had an VR3 FM USB Car Transmitter for two years. It had no remote unlike the Soundfly, but I loved using it. However, there were things that I found most

    frustrating when using it and I didn't realise this until after I'd purchased it.

    VR3 MP3 Player FM Transmitter frustrations:

    1) It wouldn't remember where I last was listening to.
    2) I couldn't fast forward nor rewind. Arrgh! You could only skip between tracks. This was frustrating because I have a habit of rewinding to listen to parts of my audio tracks again and again and of course I can't fast forward through averts. It was especially frustrating because of point 1 above as I would always have to start listening from the beginning of a track. Particularly annoying when listening to long tracks.
    3) No remote - Please note most FM transmitters don't come with FF or RW functions on the remote's either.
    4) It was white and it was ugly.
    5) Limited frequency range. A lot of these devices only allow you turn use the upper and lower FM frequency ranges.
    6) It takes USB dongles and SD cards but the SD cards are limited to 2GB.

    Now for the Soundfly SD:

    1) The SoundFly SD remembers exactly where you were last listening to. This is so refreshing as I can just turn off the car and when I next climb back in and start the car, with the SoundFly SD plugged into the car lighter socket, it just starts right of from where I left last. Awesome! Bear in mind I have a new model car less than four years old, but a lot of these devices just die when a car is started and the device has been accidentally left in. I've not had a single problem with using the Soundly this way, and I believe I have no reason to worry about it. You even have a bookmarking facility.
    2) I can fast forward and rewind to my hearts content. Even with the remote.
    3) The remote is is actually quite handy, especially when driving. You can certainly use the controls on the device itself, but the remote is easier. It's not too difficult to remember the position of the keypad buttons, so using the remote while driving is quite easy. Don't crash.
    4) This FM transmitter is black. The device itself is a heck of a lot more attractive than the VR3 I have. It's even smaller.
    5) You can tune into all the FM frequency range in single steps, so there's no shortage of places to find a gap in the FM range. The Soundfly can remember up to seven bookmarked spots. As for the strength of the FM transmitter, it's certainly no worse than the VR3. But unlike the VR3 I have a much broader spectrum of FM frequencies to try to find a clear spot. Much better.
    6) The device takes USB dongles & SD cards. But this device takes the High Capacity ones up 32GB.

    Other points to note. You can also connect your iPod or MP3 player via the supplied cable. You also get a 10A fuse. In case you can't figure out what it's for, and it's not stated in the instructions, the device has a fuse inside the part that pushes into the lighter socket. That should blow before the device does. Handy if you leave the device in all the time. If the device stops working, check the fuse. You unscrew the end. The instructions are clear, but one point of note is that it doesn't show you how to change the fuse.

    I'm so happy with this FM transmitter and highly recommend it to anyone who'll listen. The only thing I can think that is lacking with this is Bluetooth. I would love for this device to be able to communicate with my phone or Bluetooth headset (if I had some), or or an MP3 player that had Bluetooth.

  1. Well there isnt much to say, these cases fit and are as strong as any others.


  2. Strong, durable it came well packaged. It says for mini cds but i use it for my mini-dvds. My dvds are well protected and properly stored.


  3. If you are like me you will buy the blank mini-DVD's for your camcorder in a spindel to save a little money,TDK Electronics DVD-R14RGACB20 8CM Mini DVD-R 20 Pack, buy just like me you will also leave them laying around everywhere. These jewel cases come in perfect, not to bulkey and make it easy to store your memories :)


  4. I have a DVD camcorder, I got tired of paying such high prices locally for the mini DVD's and so started to get the 20 packs from Amazon. Unbeatable prices on Amazon, but what to do with the disks since like full sized DVD packs they have no storage included. A HA! The purchased mini CD/DVD jewel cases. They work great and I'd rather have these then store all the 'little' disks in the standard sized jewel cases. A good investment as far as I'm concerned!


  5. These are great cases for miniDVDs. I really like the fact that they are slim cases so they don't waste a lot of space. I wish they came in colors other than black.

  1. This product works great. It's actually a better quality cable than what came with Sansa's MP3 player.
