The B&W XT4's are amongst the most beautiful to see and hear

Advantages: Stunning looks, stunning looks, stunning looks & superb sound
Disadvantages: Difficult to find, some manufacture flaws, small base without the feet

...I found out about these speakers after they stopped making them and had only ever heard rumours or seen pictures of the silver versions. I was thinking about the replacement XT8's but you cannot see the lovely aluminium from the front of the new ones and they are £1,200 more. The silver versions are amongst the best speakers I have ever experienced. The clean retro lines and curves, the bold yellow paper-kevlar mid cone and unlike many others they are quite discrete yet powerful, these are some of the most beautiful speakers I have ever seen. The foot print and look were some of the most important factors in my decision to purchase followed by the quality and reputation B&W manage to maintain. Without the metal feet the base seems smaller and could be knocked over, watch out for parties. Although slim there are 2 bass cones which...

Samsung PS50B451

Advantages: Brillaint TV
Disadvantages: Hard to get used to

...One of the TVs in my house has just been replaced, we was lucky enough to get a deal on the Samsung PS50b451 instead of it costing around the £700 asking price a friend of ours used her staff discount and along with some vouchers, the TV cost us around £350 which is brilliant for what it is. bit of a bargain actually. I thought I would review it to see if it is actually worth the £700 asking price to those who aren?t as lucky as us to have a friend who works in a shop that sells them. Why choose this one? The reason that we choose this particular TV is that we wanted one in the 50 inch size range to replace the old one, and when we had a look at the range available we found that this one was not only the cheapest for what it is, but also we found that this one was the better looking of the three we narrowed our choice down to...

Toshiba 28W33B

Advantages: Range of viewing screen sizes, Fantastic picture quality, price
Disadvantages: none

...I have just bought the Toshiba 28W33B 28in widescreen television and am so amazed at how brillant it is, We didn't pay a fortune for it either, (£279) which makes the very high standard of it even harder to believe. The manual is quite easy to understand bit to much explanation on some things but overall was easy for me to understand Fantastic picture quality one of the best i have seen in a while, shows programs and films in perfect quality, When first switched on you may have to adjust the brightness and colour settings to your own comfortable viewing standard. Menu selections (colour, screen adjustments etc) that come up on the television screen using the remote are easy to understand. Just remember to click on store after altering things! Menu screen consists of picture, sound and feature, Feature includes sleep...

B&Q Oil Filled Radiator

Advantages: Small, heats the fulll room, bargain price
Disadvantages: takes a whle to heat up

...B&Q Oil Filled Radiator Bought one of these around 6months ago our heating wasn't going to be working for a couple of weeks so bought this for the bedroom. Went to B&Q as knew they had quite a selection didn't want a huge one as we don't really have much room in the bedroom. We bought it as a replacement for the halogen that we had been using which the dogs kept walking past and singing their tails in. It takes quite a while to heat up even when it is on full power but once it is warm it is more than enough to warm our bedroom up. It has various settings of heat so once the room is warm you can turn it down which is a really useful feature, the dial for doing this how ever does not have numbers on it and I do think it would benefit it if it did so you could turn it down a set amount and know which setting you usually use...

Samsung B3310 - but its pink!!

Advantages: Cheap, performs core functions well
Disadvantages: No data cable, location of memory card slot

...Introduction Whilst out shopping my wife suddenly decided that she needed a new phone as she wasn?t happy with her LG Cookie that she had only had for six months. As she is on a sim only contract, it meant that we would have to pay for a new phone for her. Previously she has always liked Samsung phones so when she saw the newly released B3310, she decided it was the one for her. Purchasing the phone We bought the phone in-store from the Carphone Warehouse for £49.95 but we also had to buy £10 airtime on top of this. If we had chosen not to buy the airtime then the phone would have cost £99.95 instead which seemed a bit strange but evidently all phone manufacturers do this. We had the choice of 2 colours, light blue or pink. Unsurprisingly my wife went for the pink phone which will pretty much ensure that I...

Bun B Tha Trill

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: A couple of tracks let it down

...The Port Arthur, Texas rapper Bun B released his debut solo album, "Trill", in 2005 due to the fact that his band mate, Pimp C, was incarcerated, and therefore couldn't work with him to make another UGK album at the time. Together, they have been in the rap game since the late eighties, and were part of the movement to get the southern sound out to the masses. 1. "The Inauguration" (Intro) 2. "Bun" To get things underway you have him dropping a track, which after he has told us about his role as the president of the H-Town Rap scene, finds him showing exactly why he deserved to take up this position (despite not actually being from here) as he is one of few to make the H-Town sound go to all the far reaches of the globe. **Four Stars** 3. "Get Throwed" On this one you have the single collaboration of Bun with his partner in...

Garmin Nuvi 200w Sat Nav System

Advantages: Easy to use, does what it's suppsed to do!
Disadvantages: Satellite pairing takes ages, no mains charger!

...of the past, much like tv's. After extensive researching, price comparison and review reading, I came across the Garmin Nuvi 200w, and a sat nav system that seemed to impress greatly, so i decided to take the plunge and bought one. Much like many of the reviews I had read on the Nuvi 200w, my first impressions of it were very good. I bought the system off the Littlewoods website, as it had been reduced in a seasonal sale that they were having. This meant that the system was on offer for around £30 less than on any other reputable site that I could find it on. The product was well packaged, securely and compactly fitted to an inner cardboard shelf, that meant that the sat nav was unable to move or rattle within the box, therefor limiting the chance of damage during postal delivery to a minimum. Included in the box was the Nuvi 200w sat nav system...

The 'B' Word

Advantages: Good story, quite witty
Disadvantages: Possibly not for male readers

...territory, not only in the form of the private investigators themselves, but also as authors of the genre, and it seems that as a species, they're going all out to give the men a run for their money. Sue Grafton, Kentucky-born author with a mystery-writing heritage, brings us a thirty-two year old P.I. with the androgynous handle of Kinsey Millhone (what's wrong with giving a female detective a feminine name, I wonder?) who ticks most of the qualifying boxes, knows how to handle a gun and has no qualms about using it. In B is for Burglar, the second in the so-called 'Alphabet' series, Kinsey (let's be chivalrous and call her by her forename) is approached by a woman anxious to trace her sister, of whom nothing has been heard for six months or more. There's no love lost between the siblings, but the two women are among a number...

Review of B

B-Oh-Bay

Advantages: Highly varied
Disadvantages: Some contradiction in the styles

...Hosted by DJ Smallz, B.o.B. was the first proper mixtape from the Decatur, Georgia rapper B.o.B. (who would go on to be called Bobby Ray in 2009). It came late in 2007 and came directly off the hype of his hit single ?Haterz? around this time. He is known for his alternative ways and how much he contrasts from the typical Hip Hop act (especially in the ?Dirty South?. 1. ?Fear Factor? (Intro) 2. ?Cloud 9? Here he performs a floaty track that des well to express the otherness that he seems to be connected to as you find that he gets into the titular and opening cut to this release and raps about how high he gets off the life he?s living and others just can?t compare to how he?s living at this time. It is a funny track as has him mocking the use of Young Jeezy-styled adlibs in a way that can be easily overlooked. **Five Stars** 3...
