Some time ago… Two audiophiles were seated in a bar when one was overheard suggesting wireless speakers.  He hasn’t been heard of since.  No seriously.  Friends don’t let friends mention wireless and high quality audio in the same sentence.  The mere thought of such is unheard of in audio enthusiast circles and I remember my forum search a few years …

Let me just say it.  If you are looking for a new Samsung smartphone for any type of photography, move along.  Keep looking.  Samsung smartphones have a consistent reputation for their abysmal camera qualities and the reputation is well earned. The unfortunate part of this is that most, as I, learn this much too late or pray Samsung has fixed …

A few weeks ago we did a report on the Platin Monaco 5.1 Wireless Home Cinema System and, well, we just can’t say enough about this system.  In a home where drilling holes in the floor and hiding speaker wires just isn’t possible, this COMPLETELY wireless speaker system did something that hasn’t been achieved in some four years of searching …

I hate wires!  I can remember a time several years back where my wife stood there hollering at me as I ripped the walls apart to bury cabling, and better yet, drilled holes in the hardwood to position the surround speakers.  Up until this moment in fact, I never considered the drop ceiling in the lower level of that home …

If you are a handgun owner, ‘safe’ storage of your firearm is as important as your ability to carry and shoot a handgun properly.  Too often we read about children killed, the result of a handgun too easily available to them in the home.  Similarly, if one has to use deadly force to protect themselves, they want to know that …

In today’s world, it seems in-car video has become the norm.  You can believe that in any given drive, you have been recorded at some point or another, and for insurance and court purposes in the case of an accident, a video is worth a thousand words. Transcend has been in the business of dashcam and body video for some …

Historically,  there has always been a trade-off in the smart watch industry.  You made the choice of a watch with great features… or you chose a one with a longer battery life. Is it a smart watch or a fitness tracker? Even today with the two most popular watches in the business, the Apple Watch 5 might last 18 hours …

The term of the day in the portable audio world is True Wireless Stereo, or TWS, and it is a  feature typically present in higher end Bluetooth headsets. We have in hand (or rather ear) the newest Huawei Freebuds 3 earphones and many seem to have tied the term TWS to this product.  Oddly enough, you won’t find it used …

So you built a garage and now you want all the bells and whistles to match.  That is just my scenario.  We bought a home in the middle of nowhere that was on the side of a hill with no driveway and no garage.  The possibilities here…  The ONLY way I was getting spousal collaboration and agreement on this venture …

While at CES a few weeks ago, we happened to meet up with and take part in a discussion about garage security with LiftMaster.  It was a totally unexpected meeting, but rather fortunate as we had just recently finished a two story 40’x30′ three garage and were very happy with our purchase of three Chamberlain RJ020C Wall-Mounted WiFi Garage Door …
