Ipod Classic - 160GB

Advantages: Size, Workmanship, Functionality
Disadvantages: Zero support for some old peripherals, crashes car stereo , Bit heavy!

...and click 'get album artwork' - this did take a while... but worked! Whilst coverflow looks nice I don't think it adds extra functionality to the IPod... more a space draining quirk! It does look awesome though ;-) Sound playback is the usual high standard - but this is really down to you, the user - I have all my imported (off CD) music set to apple loss-less. Which will take up more space, but with 160 GIGS to play with... it is not a great deal more! It must be said - the headphones supplied are useless... get some Sennheiser CX300 - the added clarity is noticeable - and you do not need it as loud! The hat trick is that the ear buds stay in my ear when I am working out. Video playback; to test this I ripped Family Guy from dvd to IPod using the ImToo software package. Quality was good - but KILLS your battery! So not ideal...

Apple iPod Classic 160GB Silver

Advantages: Easy To Use, Lots Of Memory, Many New Features
Disadvantages: None

...Apple iPod Classic 160GB Silver The Apple iPod Classic is a great mp3 player. With 160GB of memory you wont have to worry about how much space you've got left ever again. I paid about £220 for my iPod classic and it was well worth it. With the iPod Classic you can browse you music in many different ways. The newest feature to searching for music is the cover flow feature. This is where you can browse all of your albums by the front cover and you simply click on the cover to see the track listing. You can still browse by Song, Artist, Album and most played. The video feature is excellent. You can hold up to 200 hours of video, all on your iPod Classic. I must say that I am very impressed with the video quality. It's just like watching a TV but with a smaller screen. You can download all of your favourite TV shows straight from...

Advantages: Range Of Features
Disadvantages: None

...Apple iPod Classic 160 GB The iPod Classic is the best once so far with many features. There is not much you can't do on your iPod Classic and with 160 GB of memory you cant go wrong.

You can listen to music for up to 40 hours and you can watch videos for up to 7 hours. The memory is the best thing with the iPod Classic. You can hold up to 40,000 songs or 200 hours of video.

Apple iPod Classic 160GB Black

Advantages: Easy To Use And Lots Of Memory
Disadvantages: None

...Apple iPod Classic 160GB Black The Apple iPod Classic is the best Mp3 player on the market. I paid £230 for my iPod Classic and I must say I am very impressed. There are many new features to the iPod Classic. The sound quality is great and the video quality is just as good as a TV. With 160GB of memory you will never have to worry about running out of space ever again. The iPod its self is very durable. I have dropped my iPod lots of times and it still looks brand new. The screen is a bit like a small wide screen TV but its great for watching TV shows and movies. I wouldn't recommend that any one buys a second hand iPod, as they are quite often broken. In the past I have brought a previous version of the iPod on eBay and when I received the iPod it didn't work, I was very disappointed. Apple iPod Classic 160GB Black Includes...

Just go out and listen to the Kef Q5.

Advantages: Great Sound
Disadvantages: Not within everyones price range.

...-and the other end of the scale, bass, simple music, such as a solo piano performance. Listen to the music soft and loud, for clarity and lack of harshness in the high range and a lack of boominess in the low bass end. The best position to listen to music from a good quality set of speakers is at the apex of the triangle; this is where the sound coming from each speaker meets. Start in this position, and then move off-centre until you find the angle at which the high frequencies become muffled. The farther you can go, the better the speakers. Sharpen your listening skills by first comparing each store's top performer with its low-priced entry-level model. Hopefully this is enough information for you to appreciate the review. Kef Q5 The speakers are two and a half bass reflex, which means there are two and a half 160mm woofers speakers (see...

KEF KHT 3005 SE

Advantages: Look great sound great easy to install
Disadvantages: need a good amp to get the most out of them

...Hi there ! We own the new verson of the kef KHT 3005 whats known as the SE version(we used to have the old model). The new version is a vast improvement on the old model with the addition of the new tangerine tweeter. Power handling also seems to have improved. They fill the room with rich deep base from the new HTB2 sub woofer and they look absolutely fantastic ! We managed to get them at a fantastic price from The brotherhood of sound in Chesterfield at almost £200 off the RRP. It is noted that we are using Hi def audio from the new onkyo 875 receiver and from the PS3 blue ray movies are incredible! Overall well worth the money!!!!...

KEF IQ9 Speakers

Advantages: Excellent sound quality at all frequencies, well built and good looking
Disadvantages: Would be imposing in a small room

...Bought my KEF IQ9s a year ago to replace my ageing Mission bookshelf speakers, and am still loving them. They are driven by my Mission Cyrus 2 Amp and are used to play a wide range of music mostly rock and pop both from CD and records . Having tested the IQ range these were undoubtedly the best from bass through mid range to treble, and for sound quality, performing well at low, as well as higher, volumes. I could have saved £150 and bought the next model down but I knowI would have regretted it. They are handsome and stylish floor standing speakers, all of the KEF IQ range are available in a range of three different veneers to suit your style. Apart from extracting them from the packaging (I had to crawl into the box to get them out), they were easy to set up and have been totaly reliable since purchase. A year on - not a single...

KEF CODA 80 >> Built Like A Rock <<

Advantages: Solid, Value For Money, Excellent Clarity
Disadvantages: Colour ( but that is only my opinion! )

...Having just purchased an AV surround processor & surround speakers, I decided a center speaker was required to obtain the full effect. Looking at my budget, I could not really spend more than about £90, having just forked out for an AV amp, various cheap center speakers were considered, and rejected due to poor performance & build quality. The KEF COD 80 caught my eye, as it was a special deal on the Richer Sounds web site at £69.99, observations elsewhere showed this model to be £130+. I ordered one hastily, but expected to wait about 10 days for delivery, but I was surprised to find it arriving within 2 days. (I suppose Richer Sounds must have a warehouse full to sell them so cheaply). The only colour they had was the ?Light Maple? type ? but this did not bother me as I generally don?t buy stuff to match the sideboard, but...

KEF 2005.2 with Onkyo 606

Advantages: Style, sound and build quality
Disadvantages: Bigger than expected

...I picked up the eagerly anticipated Onkyo 606 a few weeks ago; I have paired it with a KEF 2005.2 5.1 surround speakers, both in silver finish. I purchased both from A1 Audio based in Sheffield, who supplied direct to me in Glasgow. I also bought 2 set of KEF floor stands to mount the speakers on. The Onkyo/KEF system replaces a budget Sony out of the box DVD/surround 5.1 system... and what a difference, just a totally different experience. I have hooked up the Onk with my PS3 via HDMI for gaming, DVDs & Blu-ray use. Am not gonna put anything on the spec of the 606 here, as that is pretty widely available elsewhere. I have connected the KEFs to the Onk with QED silver micro speaker cable. Out of the box everything feels very well put together, very strong and sturdy quality build. But everything is also big, much bigger...

Extra memory for me - Samsung 160Gb External hard drive USB

Advantages: Small smart looking and light, easy to use
Disadvantages: none that I have found

.... You can get desktop hard-drive which are bigger and need an external power supply but usually have more storage capacity. But my Samsung is a portable hard-drive with a storage capacity of 160GB MY PORTABLE HARD DRIVE: This little Samsung hard drive is really compact, with a neat aluminium body and does not require external power supply. I bought my Samsung hard-drive online from Ebay not in an auction but a Buy it Now seller. It has 160 GB storage capacity and costs me under £40. It weighs around 150 gram and easily fits in my bag or a jacket pocket. It is just a sealed aluminium box with a mini USB port at one end ? nothing else at all. The actual item is 11.5cm x 1.0cm x 7.0cm (only 0.5" inch thick) which is amazing I think. All I did when it arrived was take it out of the box, plug the mini USB into the item then plug the 2...
