everywhere in the lab, on the road, in public facilities, in the studio and at home. With over 25 years of continual production of the DC-300 amplifier, the D Series is an example of Crown's commitment to developing long-term, reliable amplifier technology. The D-45 and D-75A are the latest D Series amplifiers and are perfect for moderate power applications such as recording or broadcast studio near-field monitoring, video suite audio monitoring, a recording/broadcast headphone amp or a small paging system.Crown's AB+B circuitry ensures efficient use of output transistors while incorporating protection against shorted, open, mismatched or low-impedance loads.Designed, built and carefully checked to ensure reliable operation with a wide variety of loads, Crown D Series amplifiers are convection cooled. Their high reliability is particularly important in reducing maintenance costs.All D Series amplifiers are covered by Crown's comprehensive Three Year No-Fault Full Warranty. This warranty protects your investment no matter what happens to your amp even if it's damaged by accident! This totally transferable warranty also guarantees that your amp will continue to meet or exceed all original specifications.Features?

...As a previous customer to Archos (i have brought the Gmini400) I was keen to try out their new product.
Gmini402 is a device that plays videos, music, and you can view photos, it is small, stylish, and can fit easily into a pocket.
The Gmini is very simple to use, there is no installation required, you simply plug it into your computer (via usb 2.0) and it appears as external hard drive, you can then simply drag and drop songs, videos and photos onto the device. Unplug it, and they appear. It is much less complicated than using I-Tunes or any other similar software.
The sound quality is great, and there is an equaliser should you want to change the settings. The video quality is outstanding, when you get the device out of the box, it comes with an amazing tropical video that just looks breathtaking the vivid colours really stand out...

Advantages: Great sound, great video, great price Disadvantages: Perhaps not as stylish as some other players, bundled earphones not great
.... Getting video onto the payer is also quite simple as windows media player actually automatically converts the videos on your hardrive to play on the Archos when you sync. For example, you pick a video from your media player library and add it to the sync list, and when you click sync media player will automatically convert that video into an Archos compatitble format and then put it on the player.
You can also drag and drop music and video (or indeed any other type of file) into the Archos, and it can be used as a portable hard drive.
The gmini can also be used as a photo viewer and it can also function as a games console. It comes bundled with some demos - most of these games suck though and are more like mobile phone games than PSP.
Finally, the Archos gmini 402 comes bundled with a whole bunch of accessories - you get an AC charger...

As a digi-cam virgin, I have to admit that I wasn't looking for anything other than a cheapo model which simply took pictures and nothing else. I'd heard that digital zoom was an important feature, and I'd also drawn the line at those really cheapo... more
