Onkyo TX-NR809 THX Certified 7.2-Channel Network A/V Receiver (Black) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I've had the previous generation 808 for several months, but had the need for a second receiver and wanted one I was already familiar with. Quite simply, I'm amazed at the sound quality of the 809. All music and movies sound much, much better - and the 808 is no slouch. The sound is richer, fuller and...

Denon AVR-891 7.1 Channel 135W A/V 1.4 3D-Ready Receiver - Black Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)As an amateur reviewer who finds himself reviewing a number of products, I am always torn as to how I should perceive the value of equipment relative to the MSRP or the price I paid.

Kicker 06SKM10 4-Ohm Marine Subwoofer with Grill in Seal Box Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This works pretty well in a inboard ski boat, however the mounting options are limited as the brackets attach only on the sides, making it difficult to tighten down in the tight confines of a boat. The sealed enclosure delivers adequate bass to complement the other speakers.Click Here to see more reviews...

Sharp HE LC46LE830U 46-Inch 1080p LCD TV -Black Review

The manufacturer apparently assumes this TV will have a sound system added to it as the basic sound system on the TV is not very good.Click Here to see more reviews about: Sharp HE LC46LE830U 46-Inch 1080p LCD TV -BlackInternet-Ready TelevisionClick...
