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 …
Read More »Platin Monaco 5.1 Wireless Cinema Sound System Review – Wireless 5.1 Home Cinema At Its Best
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 …
Read More »Yale / LiftMaster Smart Touchscreen Deadbolt and Smart Garage Control Review
There is a certain slice of society that lives out of their garage. No… I am not speaking of those that physically room and board there, but rather, that small group that always have the doors open and prefer time working on cars, lawnmowers, boats, snowmobiles, bikes or what have you. I grew up there with my grandfathers garage door …

The last year has been pretty much a write-off as one of our favorite pre-occupations during the summer months is travel. The world stage has changed drastically and, as much as world travel holds its benefits, getting into the Z and just driving can’t be beat. We were actually holding up this review because we wanted to include some amazing …
Read More »Helm Audio AAAMP Mobile Headphone Amplifier Review – Sweet Music To My Ears
As a music lover, I have never been one for things that claim to boost sound or signal external to the music device itself. I even hummed and hawed when Ari asked, but hesitantly agreed to try out Helm Audio’s newest DB12 AAAMP Mobile Headphone Amplifier. The DB 12, at least in my vision of things, is meant for smartphones …

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 …

Read More »Huawei Watch GT2 Review – Unmatchable 14 Day Battery Life
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 …
Read More »Huawei Freebuds 3 Earphones Review – Setting the Mobile Industry Standard
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 …
Read More »LiftMaster Smart Garage Camera Review – Night Vision, Motion Detector & 2-Way Audio
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 …
