Ultimea Solo B30 Soundbar review – A great companion for the Poseidon E40 projector

UltimeaSoloB30 1

REVIEW – Ultimea was kind enough to send along their new Solo B30 Soundbar to test along with the Poseidon E40 projector. I was going to write a separate review, but they work nicely together, so this is kind of a mini-review add-on. It’s two-fer Tuesday! What is it? The Ultimea Solo B30 Soundbar is […]

OXS Thunder Pro Gaming Soundbar review – a nice upgrade over built in speakers, but at what cost

OXS Thunder Pro 12

REVIEW – When I was in college I got into PC gaming and had a friend help me weld custom speaker stands for a surround sound setup to enhance my gaming. Fast forward a few years (decades), and I’ve long since ditched 6+ speaker setups for my hybrid work/gaming desk setup for a couple reasons:

Ultimea Poseidon D60 surround sound system review – Upgrade your television experience

Poseidon 1

REVIEW – I don’t know what happened along the way in television design but it feels like all the manufacturers forgot that sound is important when you’re watching a show.  I have one television in particular that no matter how high I increase the volume, speech is still very mumbly.  I have solved that problem

Creative Sound Blaster Katana V2X soundbar review – Compact system, big sound

Creative Soundbar 4

REVIEW – As it turns out, this is the sound system we didn’t know we needed. My son and co-reviewer Mason picked this out after having a good experience with Creative speakers for a previous review. Our main TV already has a nice soundbar, and I have a portable speaker to use around the house,

creative katana 12

REVIEW – Are you looking for powerful sound combined with snazzy looks, from a company with decades of multimedia experience? I’ve been running some relatively boring black computer speakers on my work/gaming desk in my office for years now. I previously had a Creative 5.1 surround system on my gaming/workstation but the wires and logistics

tribit soundbar 3

REVIEW – Like many of you, I’ve been suffering with the scourge of using the built-in speakers on a television in my house. Nearly all televisions have garbage speakers that are either tinny or too quiet or both. Many built-in TV speakers are also downward- or backward- firing so that the sound that’s getting to

OXS 15

GOKUID Storm 2.1 CH Sound Bar for TV with Subwoofer review

GOKUID soundbar 10

REVIEW – Confession time. I generally like stock speakers. I know, I know. The treble usually sounds like a tinfoil thunderstorm and the bass doesn’t go low enough, or the crackle when one side of whatever speaker-equipped entertainment device you’re working with inevitably dies. (RIP driver-side rear speaker in my ’93 Thunderbird.) But I never thought

Zvox AccuVoice AV203 SoundBar TV Speaker with Hearing Aid Technology review

Accuvoice Soundbar 1

REVIEW – Over the years, I have purchased and listened to many soundbars. I still have my Yamaha SoundBar that I purchased for almost $2k, and that was over 10 years ago. My living room Tv is without one, and sometimes the TV speakers do not reproduce the dialogue clearly so that the words separate from
