Sony DRBT100CX/BLU Ear Bud Style Stereo Bluetooth Headset Review

I had reservations about this product when I purchased it on-line, but I had been searching for a wireless or semi wireless stereo headset that fits my modest but specific requirements, so I tried it out, and I really like it.
Unlike other Bluetooth stereo headset devices I have tried, this little unit has great range. Others I've tried had a difficult time streaming audio at the distance from my head to my hand with my arm extended at 90 degrees, which is of little use to me. With the DRBT100CX, I can place my mobile device in my pocket or even walk away from it an easy 30 meters with excellent streaming clarity.
The ear buds fit comfortably and I can manually adjust the amount of ambient noise I want to hear by adjusting how snugly I put them in my ears. This is important because there are times you need to be aware of the sounds around you, and there are times you just want to drown everything out. And because the ear buds are corded, the Bluetooth transmitter doesn't have to be pressed against the back of my skull or hanging behind my ear; I can clip it to my shirt sleeve or waist band. While the precise health risks of Bluetooth transmissions are somewhat unknown, I'd just as soon limit the proximity to my head.
It's extremely light weight with a compact form factor, and the simplicity of the miniature joystick control is brilliant, even for my huge hands and fingers. So far, it appears to be quite efficient with power usage, and I love that it recharges via USB, with the USB charge cable included.
There is one item that I would consider to be a significant design flaw that Sony should fix if they design another (even smaller) version, and I hope that they do. The built-in, plastic spring loaded clip used to clip it onto your cloths, etc., is far too flimsy for even casual use. On my unit, the clip broke off at the hinge and it's just too tiny and delicate to attempt any type of lasting repair. I happened to have a small Velcro strap with a metal clip on it, the kind you might see threaded through the hole of an identification badge clipped to one's jacket lapel, which works perfectly for me, actually better than the original.
The price seems a bit high, but because this unit fits my needs, I use it all the time, so I'm comfortable that it was a good purchase. I have to deduct from the rating, not just because my clip broke, but because Sony should have given more realistic consideration to the design, for that price.

Replacement Headset for C120 (CLARITY-C120HS) Review

This product is aptly named. The clarity is great. You can hear everything clearly and move around the room at will without having to worry about interference. However, the ear pieces are HUGE! After about ten minutes my ears were killing me. I ended up giving them away and ordering Sennheiser because of the earpieces. Admittedly, I'm a petite woman, but I had others try them on and they all said the same thing: ouch!

Very handy device , especially if you use blue tooth phone ear pieces. Plug it into any standard stereo plug and listen to Mp3 or audio books. when call comes in you automatically switch to the call.
Would have given it 5 stars but it has to be re-paired too often. So you cue up an audio book and turn it on only to find you need to go through the more lengthy repairing process.

Concept CLD-700 7-Inch Chameleon Headrest Monitor with Built-in DVD Player Review

With a little research this headrest unit seems to be one of the best deals out there. As an Audio/Video afficionado, it is an attractive and tidy unit which comes with 3 different 'pleather' colors to match your interior. This is good because you can conceal it better from thieves. We got it for our 1 month old. Yes...he faces the rear & I was able to easily install it backwards (facing forward in the rear seat headrest holes. The included remote works well and has plenty of features...most importantly repeat. This allows the disc that is in to continuously play. It picks up right where it was when you turned off the ignition. So far little Henry has watched Baby Einstein's Poetry & Classical Music DVD about 20 times. Beware though, the onscreen lighting and action can be bothersome in your rearview mirror when travelling in the dark. You'll learn to ignore it. It is very easy to use and put the disc in & the remote is an added bonus. Installation can be a little tricky though, as the cables slide down through the headrest holes and into the interior of you seat. Our 2003 Pathfinder's seatback came off with a little enticing which allowed me to power it from the trunk plug. Most newer model autos have zipper / snap seatbacks which should allow relatively easy wiring. Note: Use electrical tape to secure ALL of the connections tight. The last thing you need in the middle of the interstate on that vacation trip is to have a wire jiggle loose! Take the time to install it securely. All in all it seems to be a great unit & I hope it lasts long enough so little Henry can drive & mom & dad can sit in the back & watch movies :o>

RCA Lyra Wireless Transmitter Review

Hello All, Probably like some of you, I waffled for quite some time over whether to buy the RCA Lyra Wireless or not. Finally I plopped the dollars down and now I'm here to tell you that RCA Lyra does exactly what they say. And now, the particulars.
The setup was simple and straightforward, most of my time was spent moving my huge entertainment center from the wall so I could get to the back of my Sony receiver. I plugged the receiver into the MD/DAT slot, plugged it to a power source and every light on the signal indicator glowed green with joy. If only 802.?? were this simple. Ran the software to install the remote and musicmatch (not necessary, but I like it), checked all the audio settings per the manual and WIN XP had everything ready to go.

Went to the radio in Musicmatch and wow, the sound is outstanding, no hiss, just pure clean music. The manual stated that the Lyra could receive interference from cordless phones and recommended using position number four on both transmitter and receiver. I tried the others, turned on my cordless phone and no interference.
I subscribe to Rhapsody and Realone also. So naturally I tried each and they worked, matter of fact any and every sound that my computer makes come through the stereo. I do recommend you download the latest RCA Lyra software, it allows you to switch between players, currently Rhapsody and Musicmatch. But, like I said all the other players work as well, Media Player, MSN Radio Plus, Spinner, MoonTaxi, LaunchCast and more.
The remote control is awesome too, it does just as RCA states, I was surprised to learn that it closes whichever player you're listening to and it works through walls with no hesitation. If you're a Rhapsody user, you know that you can skip to the next song, the remote does that and more. It operates all other electronics as well, I haven't set it up for that yet, probably want, I have a nice Sony all you can control remote.
Well, I'm sure I may have missed something, but I've hit what's important to us all and that's the sound and the ease of setting it up.....PERFECTO. I'm very satisfied, actually it has exceeded my expectations. Lastly, it works, now go order yours!

PYLE PLD72BK Adjustable Headrests w/ Built-In 7'' TFT/LCD Monitor w/ Built in DVD Player & IR/FM Transmitter With Cover (Black) Review

Highs: 1yr warranty. Better quality than non-branded units on ebay. Ability to connect 2 headrests together to play and watch from either or both headrests. Infra-Red headphone capable but not included.
Lows: Games/game controller are low quality. No headphones.
I purchased this Pyle DVD headrest to replace a similar looking non-branded DVD headrest that I purchased on ebay that only lasted 30days before the display went out. I will never get burned by ebay and questionable sellers with no warrany and a 7-day return policy again. Note: I wasn't able to leave feedback to warn others on ebay because it was past 30days. Ebay simply said Oh-well, that's our policy.
This Pyle DVD headrest has a 1 year warranty and it has the video/audio in/out cables to connect 2 of these DVD headrest in the car. The kids love the option of watching their own movie or watching the same movie. Our kids are 6 and 8, so my wife or I usually have to get the movies going because the remote might be confusing, at least until they get used to it.
The Pyle DVD headrest is better quality than the ebay unit I replaced. For example, the hinge is more robust and the flat, flexible ribbon cables have a strain relief and guide to prevent damage. All around it seems that Pyle's engineering specified a higher end product. The instruction manual is also better than the off-brand unit that I have.
The IR headphones that we had from the previous headrest work perfect with the Pyle DVD headrest and have both A and B channels. I wish Pyle included a set.
Don't buy it for the games.

A full function remote control provides complete wireless access to your monitor\'s settings. The kids will enjoy themselves in the backseat and you\'ll be comfortable and safe in the front knowing a headrest will protect you.
