4 out of 5 stars Saitek A-250 Wireless 2.1 Speaker.......2007-12-18

Present to my brother. He likes it but said it was a little difficult to start using at first. After that, no problem & great sound from such a small device. Thanks!

3 out of 5 stars Satisfactory.......2007-12-12

Don't expect it to be as good as a wired speaker set. Base is lacking and the quality and sound resolution is only average.

1 out of 5 stars Terrible.......2007-12-12

Could not get installed. Worked briefly, then dropped signal. No tech support. I reinstalled my old speakers.

5 out of 5 stars Setup Tips - Winamp - Review.......2007-12-01

I don't know if I am the only user who hasn't received a paired unit, but this may help others.

After finding that the bluetooth didn't work per setup instructions, I dug through the troubleshooting to find in the middle of a paragraph to "double-tap" the button. I later found a photocopied 8.5 x 11 with correct instructions on it in the bottom of the box. Look for the sheet.

Bluetooth setup: (you have 20 sec to complete this from step 2)
1. Power on speaker
2. Press and hold prev and next buttons until radio symbol flashes quickly.
3. Hold power button on transmitter for 2 sec to turn it on.
4. Double tap the same button to pair it to the speakers.
5. Display will say OK.

Takeover sound function on computer:
Hold power button for 2 sec to take over after hooked up via USB.
Hold again to toggle back.

Hardwire setup.
1. Hold Play/Pause button until display says "Line"

Winamp:
Apparently AOL removed the "Enable default multimedia key support: " checkbox from the global hotkeys section in v5.5, so the play/pause won't work. The forward next works and the stop works if you switch to Line mode. Play/Pause, etc work great in windows media player.

Range: Range is greatly improved if you just use the USB cable (power and audio) and suspend the transmitter.

I have good experience with multiple walls, tile, cabinets, 45+ ft, etc. It even works outside in many locations.

Pretty good sound, and at today's price of $53, it's a good deal. BTW, I always try to buy these types of devices directly from amazon because if they don't work right, it is so easy to return.

Fidelity: Not high, but good. much better than many.

If you use the bluetooth with TV, or any video, the lips will be out of sync. The only way to avoid that would be to have a video device which had a configurable audio/video delay. I haven't seen or heard of such a device, but I suppose it could just go between the output of anything and the monitor/audio devices. Works much better with a hard line.

Enjoy.

5 out of 5 stars Bluetooth Standard Powered speakers, the iFreedom works with PC/Mac/IPOD!.......2007-11-14

Saitek made several versions of the A-250, but the one shipping now (late 2007) is the newest iFreedom version which works wirelessly BOTH with PCs AND iPods, or anything else with a mini headphone jack. Connects to PCs AND Macs (OS 10.4 & 10.5 tested) through USB with the included transmitter.

OR, you can directly connect to your computer through existing bluetooth (USE Passcode 8888) Alternately, it connects through headphone jacks on other stuff.

The bluetooth based transmitter has a rechargeable battery built in.

Smaller than you might think from the picture (see description) but excellent sound for the size. The controls work well to pause, skip back and forth in iTunes for PC (but do not work when using the headphone jack, or on a Mac).

No interference problems from 30 plus feet away for me, but YMMV. Highly recommended.

    NAD - C 272 - Stereo Power Amplifier - 150 watt

    Product Description

    Packed with Technology for Musicality

    The Absolute Sound "Editors' Choice"

    The intent focus on all NAD products is performance and reliability at a reasonable cost. The C 272 like all NAD products, achieves its performance through the employment of premium grade circuitry, innovative design and meticulous engineering.

    The C 272 won the coveted "Editors' Choice Award" in the October 2006 issue of The Absolute Sound magazine, which reports, "The C 272 is well-balanced, with good resolution, three-dimensionality, and an overall warmth and robustness on most types of music."

    The C 272 delivers 150-watts of continuous power into 4 or 8-ohms and is also 2-ohm stable. Additionally, the amp can be bridged into a mono configuration to deliver 400-watts at 8-ohms. The discrete circuitry eliminates noise and lowers overall distortion which also makes this a popular choice among audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts alike.

    "Top-Tier Performance"

    "I greatly admired the sound of NAD's C162 and C 272," reports Chris Martens in the July 2004 issue of The Absolute Sound magazine.

    According to Chris, "They bring you close enough to top-tier performance in so many areas, with a sound that is so balanced and free from disruptive discontinuities, that you are released from preoccupation with audio equipment - and set free to savor (and become deeply content with) the beauty of music, itself. What could be a higher recommendation than that?"

    "Sonically Unflappable"

    "Sonically, this amp is unflappable," reports the About.com website. "Even with loud transients, one never senses that this box is giving up. The C 272 offers particular advantages in the areas of grain-free transparency, soundstage depth, and overall three-dimensionality."

        I bought a 50 pack of Dynex cd-r's for $5.99. Not a bad price....but. I've recorded some music and it will not play on my 14 year old Sony stereo. I know it's old, but never had a problem using sony's, tdk's, phillips, or hp's? You may want to think about this before buying these.

            2 out of 5 stars Of dubious quality, with faulty sectors.......2006-10-09

            It's always hard to judge product quality from anecdotal evidence, but I purchased one of these in mid 2006. On using it, my camera crashed pretty often, eventually being unable to finish booting at all with the card installed -- a problem it had never exhibited with other CF cards. Eventually I fed it to a PC and ran a badblocks scan on the thing, which turned up several dozen bad blocks, some of them in the regions generally used for metadata on the FAT filesystem most cameras use.

            That's potentially a serious issue, because while all modern filesystems can be given lists of bad blocks to avoid, rendering partially faulty media usable, digital cameras and other embedded devices often use partial implementations of filesystem standards and may not honor bad block lists.
