Review 1 of 3

Price Paid:  $4100.00 from Benzie & Shook

Summary:
The television had part of the screen go black after only a few months use. I waited one month to get the part in. Now the receiver has been in for repair over a month. RCA is impossible to get in touch with a person to speak with. Their authorized repair shop in Denver will not give me the name or phone number of anyone at RCA/Thompson to call. DO NOT BUY AN RCA PRODUCT. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT QUALTY OR SERVICE.

Strengths:
NOne

Weaknesses:
Absoluetly the worst customer service. Unreasonable wait time on repair parts. Unreasonable amount of needed repairs on new products, hence....EXTREMELY POOR QUALITY.

Review 3 of 3

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
This television is HORRIBLE!!! DO NOT BUY THIS TELEVISION. This TV caught on fire not once, but twice!! RCA does not want to help their customers and when they did replace this TV with a new one...the new one did the EXACT SAME THING!! If I wasn't home, my house could have burned down. RCA is now trying to pay me off with an embarrassing offer. They do not work to help their customers and their service is TERRIBLE! I wouldn't buy this TV again if RCA paid me to take. DO NOT BUY!!!

Strengths:
NONE

Weaknesses:
Catches on fire, customer service is terrible, no commitment to servicing anyone.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
