Whirlpool 5.2 Front Load Washer

I've had mine a lil over a year now, as left and right front channels in a 5.2 surround setup. I'm still amazed at the amount of bass from the 2 5 inch drivers. The bass is tight and detailed, while the highs accurate and not fatiguing.

Someone please tell me any other film washer better than this.

It protects well the Shinobi 5.2 and allows to add light and microphone on the top, if necessary.

Load everything up and move it from one location to the next. All my equipment fits perfectly. Collapses down to fit in the front seat area of my car, with the wheels on the floor. Don't need a truck just yet.

I haven't actually used this yet, but I did load it, weigh it, and pretend to put it in an overhead for practice. Seems perfect for my gear. I travel with a DLSR, mirrorless and 4 lenses. There is room for that and a change of clothes if a bag gets delayed. The front compartment easily holds my 15 laptop. The laptop compartment sort of locks by attaching the loop on the zipper to the integrated lock for the case (watch the video). The case rolls easily. I agree with the reviewer who said it would be nice if the bottom of the case was flat, but with my gear that is not a problem. The recommended accessory GRID-IT organizer of 10X12 does not fit the interior front pocket and looks like it has been removed as a suggestion. All-in-all this looks like it will be a great bag. It will be my carry-on but seems sturdy enough to gate check on smaller planes.

I couldn't be happier. This cart rolls over anything and carries all my gear. The only slight problem is if you load the rear with more weight than the front, the front wheel wiggle and increase resistance to push. Design questions, changes... why not make the deck a bit wider. It would allow for more gear between the hands (light stands, tripod, etc), and since there are wheels blocking the bottom rail, put something to hook onto for bungee cords.

This is a great day/travel bag for taking your camera and a spare lens. To me, it's one step up in complexity/organization from a peak design neckstrap, which I also have and use, for days when you want to grab the camera, but also second lens and extra battery. The bag wears comfortably, wraps around your back when not in use, swings around to the front, and you can wear it as a fanny pack (though I haven't). There are nice little nooks and crannies for extra batteries, cords, etc. The flexibility and capacity of the bag is a double-edged sword. Yes, you CAN load it up, a lot, and if you are flying somewhere and need the capacity, it's there. You could do an 80D with a 18-135, two pancakes on one side and an 85mm on the other, and have room to spare for more. But, if you really load this up to maximum capacity, it starts becoming like a traditional heavy camera bag, a psychological and physical burden that detracts from actually leaving the house, being mobile and taking out your camera quickly and actually using it. Just my thought process. One less that great thing... the front pocket is a little hard to access, for me, especially if the bag is full. It could have been made just a tad more roomy, maybe with some more give on the sides. As is, the cloth is very tight and you kinda have to pull it apart and plunge your hand across a sharp-ish zipper to get in there. Know what I mean? Maybe the next generation addresses that.

I was looking for a 5 channel receiver/amp so I could utilize my existing surround sound speaker system after my old AIWA receiver finally died. I looked at PYLE units but the reviews scared me off. I saw this unit at B&H and it had everything I was looking for. Although it is not an actual Dolby or DTS processor it does have 5.2 channel output and 5.2 RCA inputs so I can order a separate Dolby/DTS decoder that has 5.1 output and still get true surround sound. I run my HDTV through it to get surround sound over the 5.1 channels (I only have one subwoofer). The sound of this unit over my AIWA speakers is excellent and the AM/FM receiver is picks up well after connecting the antenna. The remote offers the ability to change all of the parameters of the unit and works easily from 30 feet away. The only drawback is the remote will not turn the unit off but I hit that on my way to the bedroom after we're done watching TV. It would also be nice to be able to adjust the volume of the 5 channels independently. It seems to be well built and I expect many years of service from it. I did a lot of comparing of various priced units and all in all I think this unit is a great value for the money and I am very happy with it.

The sound quality and volume are astonishing for such a small format. Bluetooth 5.2 is great: iPhone finds the speaker in the moment I turn it on, even without airplay. I’m totally satisfied.

My 5.2 Klipsch system included a Sony 10-inch subwoofer that's now at least 15 years old, but still performing well. The new Sony's main practical difference is the power switch now located on the back instead of the front. Since some reviewers have commented that they don't use the auto-on switch position since they've experienced the speaker shutting off under low volume conditions, I decided to turn it on and off manually like I'm used to doing with the other paired speaker. So now I have to reach behind the new one, but not a big deal as the switch push button is easy to identify by feel. The performance of the speaker is every bit as good to my ear as the older Sony -- very pleased with the fuller, twin bass setup even at low volume. Can't imagine a better one for the price!
