CUSTOMER FEEDBACK :
Touch, CDs, tuner, flash drive all work seamlessly with the unit, with plenty of power for the average user. If you are one of those "I want to feel the bass shake the car" type of people, you will need a separate amp. Control surfaces feel well-made and sturdy, not typical for radios I've shopped for this price range.
The only drawback - not a do-it-yourself project. I attempted to install this radio myself. Feeling confident after seeing reviews at ePinions.com stating how "simplistic" or "intuitive" it was to install for an "Average Joe," I took on the task. Well, if you're not a seasoned radio installer, don't attempt it - you may mar your dash getting everything hooked up. The installation guide is scant at best.

Sony MDR-EX300/BLK Vertical In-the-Ear Style EX Style Headphones (Black)

Despite their bulbous shape - a consequence of the sizeable, 13.5mm driver squeezed inside each one - these in-ear phones are lightweight and comfortable to wear. Their reasonable price belies their class, too. While they can't match the bone-shaking output of Sennheiser IE8s, they do not supply a decent dose of distortion-free bass, with crisp treble, making them ideal for everything from rock to hip hop to electronica.
These are an absolute steal - the best value here by far and a great alternative to the big ticket options here.

Technical Details :
* New hybrid silicone type earbuds for better sound, more comfort, and secure fit - three sizes(S, M, L).
* Carrying case
* Cord adjuster.
* Cord: 1.2m, Neck-chain type.



CUSTOMER FEEDBACK :
I have had the Sony MDR-EX-300/BLK for about 2-weeks and very happy with them. I got them at Best Buy on sale for $56. My cat chewed up my V-moda ear buds right before a long plane flight. The Sony buds had a few good reviews and I had to have my music for the flight. For ear buds they are very comfortable. I use sound reducing ear muffs to reduce the plane noise over my ear buds. This is a cheap way to get noise reduction. The problem is they are not very comfortable. I found the MDR-EX-300 did a good job of noise reduction and I did not have to use sound ear muffs.
One thing I have found with my V-moda and other ear buds I have used, the rubber piece that goes in your ear falls off easy and I have lost several. On the Sony's they have a very tight fit and will not fall off. They are actually a little hard to change for a different size - but that is better than too loose.
My ears are a little burned out with too much load Rock & Roll. But I find the sound to be very good for the price. When listening to a high quality recording they sound great. They also bring out the defect on lesser quality MP3's. They are best ear buds I have used so far. The carrying case is very well design and protects them from my cat. Highly recommended.

Denon AHD1001K On-Ear Headphones (Black)

Denon is the company that invented digital recording over thirty years ago. They have led the audio world with leading edge technologies in audio and video sound reproduction. Now you they have taken that same attention to detail and put it into the design of an incredible series of headphones. The Denon AHD1001K On-Ear Headphones are designed to reproduce all of the nuances of the digital music you listen to. The microfiber diaphragm with acoustic optimizer provides superior sound quality from 8 to 37,000 Hz. High-quality, oxygen-free copper cabling ensures only the cleanest sound. This headphone also features an attached 5-foot cable and 11.5-foot extension cable.

Technical Details :
* On-ear headphone design.
* Black metallic finished molded housing and light weight magnesium frame structure.
* Microfiber diaphragm with acoustic optimizer.
* High-quality oxygen-free copper cabling.
* Cloth mesh cable jacket and carry pouch with L-type connector included.



CUSTOMER FEEDBACK :
- Clarity and detail is very good.
- Midrange is solid and not too forward, it works well for both female and male vocals. - Everything from the mid-bass on up is well represented. Kick drums sound realistic with good punch and authority.
- The placement of performers in the recording is precise and fairly spacious.
- The slightly elevated highs means this headphone can sound a bit forward if the music is recorded on the "bright" side.

The bad thing: Although these are sealed headphones that should block out some noise, they barely block out any noise at all. They only block out 10dB of noise which means you hear the noise at half the intensity, which is not enough for reducing the noise of my noisy cubicle mates.

Bose Quiet Comfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones

The next step in Bose noise reduction headphones. A smaller, lighter on-ear design--delivering the same levels of acclaimed performance as our around-ear Quiet Comfort 2 Acoustic Noise Canceling headphones. You enjoy the same total noise reduction and audio quality, with an equally comfortable fit.

Denon DVD-2500BTCI Blu-ray/DVD/CD Player

Go beyond standard processing with the ultimate Blu-Ray/DVD/CD digital transporter for the digital purist. Combining top-of-the line audio/video standards with a rigid, multi¬layered construction, this breakthrough transporter eliminates outside interference to deliver unrivaled playback from a wide range of digital sources. And all this performance is delivered to your HDTV via HDMI. The DVD-2500BTCI is a Blu-ray disc transport that outputs video and digital audio signals via an HDMI port. When connected to a Denon A/V surround amp with an HD-format decoder, such as the AVR-4308CI, the DVD-2500BTCI's transport features can be used on their own to enjoy high-quality video and audio.

Technical Details
* Complete digital-only transport to eliminate interference.
* Single-cable HDMI connection and Digital HD output up to 1080p.
* Fully 10-bit processing for i/p and scaling circuit.
* Blu-ray 1080p/24fps output capability.
* Up to 36 bit Deep Color support via HDMI.



Features
* Separate blocks to suppress interference between circuits.

Unit performs well. For regular DVD's picture is about the same as the Denon 3910. Blu-ray disks are comperable to HD television. Uses the same remote codes as the older 3910, so no need need to get Pronto universal remote re-programmed -- a real advantage. Remote is OK, reasonably well laid out.

Few things to keep in mind. The only method of connecting the device is via the HDMI. This is fine for me, but not if you plan to hook this to an older AMP.
Playback will only play DVD-R not +R.
