Mygica LDA-9000 Standalone Digital ATSC HDTV Box, 1080P With Hybrid QAM/NTSC TV Tuner, Watch TV, Game and Video on Your PC Monitor - IR Remote control is Included Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I got this so I could have a TV in my dorm room (I already had a nice computer monitor and didn't want to fully replace it). Works fairly well as a TV tuner, but it doesnt pick up some of the higher numbered digital channels clearly. I have a VCR plugged into it as well and it makes the movies from the...

Monster High-Speed Three-Way HDMI Switch Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This device allows you to use up to three devices with HDMI outputs on a TV with just one HDMI input. It is an excellent product once you learn how to use it. There is a secret you need to get it to work though--you can't just manually switch between devices: you must use the "learn" function on the...

LaCie LaCinema Mini HD Connect High Definition Media Player 301917KUA Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Media players are definitely the next big thing but there's still none out there that are close to being perfect. AppleTV is great but it's far too limited to Apple's own mp4 format and too focused on selling Apple's content. I've been through a couple others - the ultraportable MVIX and a 1st gen. Western...

SANUS SYSTEM Flat Panel TV Stand Furniture ( Platinum ) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Like most people, I was excited to buy a plasma TV just because it is wall mountable. But realistically, I didn't want to drill huge holes in my wall, nor pay $500 for it to be professionally installed. And I soon came to realize that even if I did mount the TV on the wall, I would still need to have...

Pioneer SE-A1000 Lightweight Audiophile AV Over-Ear Headphones (Black) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)These headphones do not cancel any noise from coming out or coming in, but they are not suppose to. The audio quality is the main focus here. The bass could be a little beefier but overall good blend. I think the best part about these headphones are the level of comfort. This set just lays on your head...
