Plays burned DVD's, but lacks a few features.......2006-12-16

I've had an older model Panasonic 7" LCD for some time now and it works great except for the fact that it does not play burned DVD's. However, this one by Dual does! I've burned quite a few DVD's in DVD-R format and the Dual XDVD8181 has taken them all without a fuss.

The CD Player is nice (nothing special) and radio works well. Also the AUX Input for the Ipod interface doesn't allow you to control the Ipod with the Touchscreen. You need to use the Ipod itself to change songs. The "iPlug" connector is simply an RCA audio (Red/White, L/R) to stereo mini-jack (female) input so you can basically connect anything that has a stereo mini jack output to it.

Installation was straight-forward if you're technically inclined. My only gripe is that I was not able to install the unit flush with the dash because of the way the LCD Screen folds up. If you try to make the unit flush, the LCD screen gets caught when it tries to open up. The only way this can be installed is by having the unit stick out of the dash about 1 inch (maybe a little less). This is not a big deal, but for those of you who are picky about asthetics, this might annoy you.

It has an input for a rear view camera if you're in to that. It also has RCA preouts (Front, Rear, and Subwoofer) but the Subwoofer preout is mono. You'll need a Y-cable if you want to split it to simulate stereo for the subwoofer (but who really needs stereo output for the subwoofer?)

One more annoyance is that if you're like me and you want to have a DVD playing while driving (not legal, but whatever), you can't simply ground the wire that's supposed to go to the parking brake. With my old Panasonic I was able to do this to "trick" the DVD player in to thinking I was parked. The way this one works is that you have to enable the parking brake, disable, then re-enable within a few seconds, then after 5 seconds of delay, the picture will show. Basically it needs to go: Ground, off, Ground. I bypassed this security measure by buying a push button switch from Radio Shack and wired the "parking brake" wire from the unit, to the button, then to the ground. So all I need to do is push the button on, push it off, then push it on again to view DVDs while driving.

For the price, this is really a good buy. Lacks add-on navigation option, integrated ipod controls via touchscreen, and flush-mount ability.. so I gave it 4 stars.

Pros:
- Price (Best bang for your buck compared to other brands)
- Plays burned DVDs (DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD+/-RW)
- 3 sets of RCA Preouts
- AUX Input
- Touchscreen
- Cool blue illuminated buttons
- Remote control included
- Plays MP3 CDs

Cons:
- No true Ipod control, just AUX input
- Prevents simple hacking for DVD viewing while driving, but you can still bypass (read my hack above)
- No add-on navigation option
- Does not mount flush with dash (due to the way the LCD screen opens)

Thoroughly impressed.......2006-12-02

Installation was a breeze. I was able to bypass the parking brake switch using instructions found on the Internet and a switch from Radio Shack. The picture is brilliant, even on sunny days. Sound quality is acceptable. The Loudness function is a bit overbearing, so I leave it off. Otherwise, sound quality is acceptable.
I like how it gives me the option of the using the knobs and buttons, which are much easier to deal with when the vehicle is in motion. The CD player goes from shuffle mode back to normal playback every time I restart the car -- a minor annoyance. There's a GPS navigation add-on for this but the price is high.

Great DVD Player.......2006-11-20

I just bought this DVD player for my corolla, and i have to say, it is a very good player for the price. I did have a little trouble with installing it (as for the deck size not wanting to let my console fit back on) but after some alterations, i got it to fit.

The screen is about as good as it gets for one of these in this price range. Very bright and colorful. The controls take a little getting used to but after a little while of playing with the touch screen, you get it figured out. Plays everything i've put in it yet, some CD's and most MP3 CD's, it will display the track names and what CD you have in. I also like it because it has seperate bass and subwoofer controls for people with subwoofers. I can also use the line-in for my sirius radio instead of dealing with FM transmitting which can be a pain in the... if your driving far or just cant find a clear frequency.

I recommend this to anyone who wants a nice in-dash DVD player.
The only bad thing is you have to have an emergency break on to watch DVD's (there are ways around it, but they aren't legal)

Alps does it Dry.......2002-10-29

My Alps MD5000P printer has done me right for three years. The Econo-Black cartridge is perfect for printing draft quality pages. It will last and last and is the only cartridge from Alps that can be flipped over and re-used over and over. The econo-black has saved me hundreds of dollars when all you need is a readable copy for review. When ready for final printing use the regular Black ink cartridge option for high quality Dry print !!

Product Description

The DM603 S2 is the entry floor standing speaker in the 600 Series 2. The speaker comes into its own as a front speaker in larger Home Cinema installations and, as with any model in the range, it is a superb monitor for 2-channel audio. The 2?-way system uses a second bass-only driver to supplement the output of the upper bass/midrange driver in the lowest octaves. This arrangement improves system power handling and reduces demands on the bass/midrange driver, which in turn improves midrange clarity. Having only the upper cone driver operating in the midrange preserves good dispersion in the vertical plane. Each of the two drivers operates in its own isolated chamber, the upper one being ported to the rear of the cabinet.

Customer Reviews:

Floorstanding speaker, not bookshelf.......1999-12-16

The DM 603 S2 is the first floor-standing speaker in the 600 series. It's a good speaker, though, with a reasonably decent low-end (although I'd add a sub to this speaker if it's being used in a home theater), and a fantastic tweeter and midrange that's worth auditioning if you can get a chance.

Product Description

When Apple set out to create the iBook, one of key design goals was to create a lightweight notebook computer tough enough to stand up to the occasional bumps and other unexpected mishaps of life on the go. From the standpoint of a laptop, the inside of a backpack can be a fairly inhospitable place. And yet you shouldn't have to walk softly just because you're carrying the most appealing notebook ever.So Apple made the iBook's sleek case out of impact-resistant polycarbonate plastic. That would ordinarily be sufficient to survive the rigorous of everyday use and abuse, but Apple didn't stop there. Inside, a sturdy magnesium frame provides superior strength, while reducing the iBook's weight to well below that of other full-featured PC notebooks. Apple even rubber-mounted the hard disk drive for added bump tolerance, so you can store all of your digital goodies on your iBook and still enjoy peace of mind. Additionally, the iBook has no I/O doors, protruding latches or levers to break or snap off when tucking it into a backpack or briefcase.

PowerShot A50 is a logical extension of Canon earlier A5 and A5 Zoom models, upgrading the sensor resolution to a full 1.3 megapixels, while maintaining the same compact, "go anywhere" all-aluminum body. The enhancements go far beyond just an increase in sensor resolution though, as the images are in every respect superior to the earlier A5 models, and indeed are very much at the top of the 1.3 megapixel class: colors are bright, saturated, and accurate, shadow detail is excellent, and the exposure range is unusually broad. Featuring Stitch Assist Mode, PowerShot A50 allows to link successive frames together to create a single breathtaking panorama picture.Couple this with a compact body reflecting the design of Canon's tremendously popular ELPH film cameras, and an aggressive price point, and you have a sure winner.

What is a Category 5e patch cable? Think of it as the street that links the houses on your block and all the destinations in town. In actuality, it's a cable that connects all the hardware destinations on a Local Area Network (LAN).The RJ45 Fast CAT 5e cable provides extra headroom over the standard Cat 5e cable and is perfect for use with 10 and 100 BaseT and Gigabit Ethernet networks. It comes complete with RJ45 male to male connectors and snagless molded strain relief.

Product Description

This cable is widely used in the interconnection of audio/video equipment. It has a low dielectric constant to ensure low capacitance and to transmit with high fidelity.
