Advantages: Very clear, very crisp
Disadvantages: slight lack of bottom end! Tho I wouldnt frett.

...Finally ! After 2 years i've got my small home studio together. Why so long? laziness and a sheer huge ammount of university work to do, that's why. Im Welsh but you could forgive me for being Scottish by my meaness when it comes to forking out for equipment (only joking, no offence to any Scottish, just mirroring an urban myth of being tight with the cash heh.) The Tannoy Reveal Actives come in at around £359. Believe me I've been to every single site to find the cheapest price and they all more or less (+-10%) fizzle off at that price. I was told about these monitors a while ago and that if I wanted to use them for dance music that I should think twice! Whoever that was, they got it wrong. These babys boom loud let me tell you. I was amazed by the clarity of the sound. They handled the roughest, most dirty basslines I could... Read review

Advantages: Deep bass, weighty sound. Relatively cheap.
Disadvantages: Actually discontinued (seek out newer mx3s), treble and detail can sound a little less exciting compared to other speakers.

...As I said, I don't know what the mx3s are like, but I expect them to sound similar, but with an improved (tweaked) sound. Unfortunately, these speakers aren't bi-wireable so an upgrade involves new speakers. Perhaps Tannoy's Revolution R2s or R3s would be the way to go - I haven't heard these myself, but they have received good reviews and are more aimed at hi-fi than home cinema. If you use these in a home cinema set up, Tannoy also make rear, centre and subwoofer speakers in the Mercury range, so get yourself a surround sound (5.1) amp/receiver and a DVD player, widescreen TV... etc.....

Advantages: Great price Vs performance, compact, good sound.
Disadvantages: Very minor "boxiness" in mid range.

..., probably a bit of a hump at around 800Hz, if my gut feel is anything to go by (that and 22 years in the industry)...... The Tannoy MxC is a small, compact 3 way speaker unit, with two main drivers and a central tweeter. My model has a light Maple wood finish, but it comes in other colour schemes to suit your furnishings. The speaker is intended to sit either on top of your TV, or, in my case, underneath it. It is a good idea to have the TV sit on top of the speaker if possible, as this will anchor the speaker cabinet solidly in place so the cones can move freely against the cabinet, and not cause any phase errors or other distorions. Its the same priciple as spike mounting the main speakers onto the floor (see my EVO3 review for more info). The two main drivers are 130mm diameter placed either side of the single centre placed tweeter... Read review

Advantages: easy to hold and easy to work
Disadvantages: image quality is poorer than other cameras

...DVD is undeniably superior to the ageing VHS tape format in the world of home movies, but you might be surprised to learn that the same is not necessarily true in the land of the camcorder. Though DVD camcorders offer a far more convenient method of storing footage, the output still lacks the resolution and vibrancy of tape-based MiniDV camcorders. We won't pull punches on this issue. It's important to realise that while there are many benefits to the new DVD format, you must be prepared to compromise when it comes to editing your footage. DVD camcorders like the DC10 record video to DVD in a linear, permanent fashion. Mainstream editing packages like Final Cut Pro, Premiere and iMovie will not work with the DC10, you have to use Canon's proprietary editing suite. There are ways around this, but image quality is further degraded... Read review

Advantages: It works really, really well
Disadvantages: The amount of dirt first collected might be scary

...The Dyson DC07 is a masterpiece of British quality design at its best. The DC07 is the next stage in the James Dyson revolutionary cyclone vacuum cleaner system. If you have never seen a Dyson vacuum cleaner at work, you may well be in for a surprise. You might have heard people say: “I could not believe how much dirt it took out of my carpets! I was horrified!” If you have dismissed this as imagination or hyperbole, you will be in rfor a shock, yourself, when you first use your Dyson. The Dyson might seem harder to use than the vacuum cleaners of some other manufacturers. This is because the suction from the Dyson (especially the DC07) is extremely powerful. Users of the DC07 will notice that they do not have to have their carpets cleaned so often because the Dyson DC07 really does so very efficiently remove dirt, dust... Read review

Advantages: Positive Christian lyrics with a modern, rocky sound!
Disadvantages: NONE!

...Although they are one of the most famous bands in the Christian contemporary music (CCM) scene, they are largely unknown by non-Christians. Their music and message however, are designed for both - if you're a Christian, if you're not, you'll still enjoy their work. Their diverse sounds range from rap, to rock, to soul, to pop, to dance, and everything in between. Formed in 1987, DC Talk consists of three members - Toby McKeehan, Michael Tait and Kevin Max Smith. They met and formed DC Talk at Liberty University, VA, USA. Since the release of their first album (self-titled "DC TALK") in 1988, the group has won numerous Dove and Grammy awards for various albums. They have lended their talents in songwriting and composing to other artists (Jennifer Knapp, Grits, Out Of Eden - to name just a few) and have worked with some... Read review

Advantages: Lasts forever (nearly)
Disadvantages: Blows dust in the air

...Ten years on, and it's still recognised as a design classic! Yes - 1993 was the year James Dyson released the world's first popular bagless vacuum cleaner - the original cost was around £200. Which is funny in an ironic sort of way, because in spite of the claims it wasn't revolutionary, nor was it the first! Industrial plants had used the 'double cyclone' principle for settling dust and solids out of a rotating column of gas or fluid for years, (so *not* revolutionary) nor was it the first implementation in a domestic context (Dyson's 'Cyclon' model 1000 was introduced in 1983) Since then, Dyson has bought out a couple of new models every few years - they currently market three upright (the DC03, 04 and DC04) and three 'drag along' models (DC05, 08 and 11 'telescope') So then - with all this choice, why might you stick...

Advantages: Rocking / Classic / Timeless
Disadvantages: No dvd included!

...The razors edge is a prime example of epic AC/DC: all killer riffs and tough - as - nails song craft. Nor is there any lack of the lads' signature, slyly salacious lyrics touching on the eternal verities: hard liquor, cheap sex, fast money and the endless quest for a good time. Like all AC/DC albums, the razors edge is designed to rock you. But beyond that, the 1990 release marked a pivotal point in the long and eventful career of rock's most enduring riot brigade. Rock was running rudderless at the dawn of the nineties. Hair metal was on the wane. Punk was just a memory, and still years away from revival as a commercial formula. But AC/DC had just completed a hook-heavy album that would catapult them to new heights! The Razors Edge is one of AC/DC's grandest albums, this re mastered version is described as 'the ultimate AC/DC... Read review

Advantages: Excellent cleaning, incredible and constant suction
Disadvantages: Garish colour scheme

...INTRODUCTION The Dyson DC07 is the latest in the now famous line of bagless vacuum cleaners from Dyson. The suction power is provided in the form of a mini cyclone and deposits the dirt and dust into a clear plastic chamber. The theory is that the suction power remains constant during use, unlike a conventional vacuum where the amount of suction reduces significantly as the bag fills up. Dyson provide you with a lot of theory to explain how their products work (and to justify the slightly higher than average price tag). Some of this is a little difficult to explain without the use of diagrams, so if you’re interested, visit their website at www.dyson.com. You may also have the chance, by answering 3 questions, to win a free DC07! SUCTION The DC07 is based on “eighth root cyclone” technology –... Read review
