If you are looking to buy your partner something for this Christmas time and they happen to love gadgets and gaming in particular then look no further than the Pyramat PC gaming chair. This chair has only just been released in the UK and looks to be a hot seller. Not only does it recline, has a tilting head rest and comforts every part of your body but the new innovation in design and advanced technology allows you to literally be glued to your desk.
With two 8 watt speakers either side of your head and a 4 inch, 40 watt subwoofer inbuilt into the chair you can expect music, games and videos to come to life. If you are worried about wires then don't be, the chair is completely wireless so all you need to think about it charging it up, and with an 8 channel digital wireless transmitter you can go as far as 25 foot away and still get super quality sound. If that's not all, there is an in-built headphone jack that means you can keep the peace and quiet and still listen!
This chair has taken technology and gaming to a whole new level, with bass controls you can sit back and play your favourite game hearing every detail as if you were right there in the game as the subwoofer sends vibrations through the chair.
At £199 I think the chair is an absolute bargain, the sophisticated look and the amount of features that it comes with has surpassed any other gaming chair and if your partner loves to game, this will literally sweep him off his feet.

Philips Hts6120/98 Soundbar Dvd Home Theater
Design
This product carries the same style and elegant design of Philips sound bar design, and matches perfectly to the latest flatscreen tv models in the market. The glossy black finish make it easy for this product design to blend in with the flatscreen panels that come in either black or silver.
The elegant glass sliding door that completes this design creates a classy outlook to the panel that decorates a modern-style living room with sophisticated electronic gadgets and equipments. Meanwhile, it carries an optional dock for iPod that users may wish to add into their purchase as an optional accessory.
The loudspeakers are integrated with the main unit. There are two 1” soft dome tweeters, six 2.5” full range woofers, and the subwoofer has one 6.5” long throw woofer. The main unit measures at 37.7” (W) x 6.4” (H) x 5.6” (D), while the subwoofer measures at 11.6” (W) x 17.3” (H) x 11.6” (D). The first weighs a mere 15.4lbs and the latter, 22lbs. Yet, this compact combination brings with it some of the finest qualities that Philips could offer.
Setting up the HTS6120/98
Users are pampered with a quick start guide and a user manual. Setting up is easy as instructions were clearly written with illustrations to show users exactly how to set up the system correctly.
The main unit has rear connections for HDMI output, component video output, composite video (CVBS) output, TV in (audio, cinch), Easy-Fit speaker connectors, Interconnect that links to the Subwoofer and AUX in. Meanwhile, the Subwoofer which is also referred to as Power Box has an FM antenna, coaxial digital input, AUX In (cinch, 2 pairs), an Interconnect linking to the main unit and an Optical digital input.
Users will also find their purchased equipped with a remote control, batteries for the remote, a CVBS video cable, FM antenna, an Interconnect cable to link the main unit to the subwoofer, power cord and s wall mounting bracket.
Sound and Video Quality
Philips invests its technology heavily on the HTS6120/98. Its innovative FullSound technology that restores sonic details to compressed MP3 music, allows users to enjoy music without distortions. It combines with Philips’ expertise in music reproduction with Digital Signal Processor (DSP), a power of the latest generation. Rich details can be expected as a promised delivery of dialogs and fuller bass with more depth and impact.
The second technology invested within this system is the Ambisound technology. This technology produces the effect of surround sound with fewer speakers, however, users would not reap the benefits of a real 5.1 sound experience as it claims in the product brief.
Meanwhile, the DoubleBASS technology is something that gives this system an edge over most competitors of the same range. DoubleBASS helps deliver a deep bass tone, capturing low frequencies and recreates them in the audible range of the subwoofer. This may be something that users look for, and many disappointed users with previous experience of a lacking bass tone may find this an unparalleled quality.
Philips HTS6120/98 supports video playback with compression formats that includes various versions of DivX including DivX Ultra, MPEG1 and MPEG2. It accepts DVD-Video, DVD+R/+RW, Video CD/SVCD and CD-R/CD-RW. Some users may also delight knowing that it also supports PAL and NTSC video disc playback systems. It supports high definition 720p, 1080i and 1080p formats, and video up-scaling is available for anything lower.
Users may also find it convenient that it supports still photograph playbacks in JPEG format, via CD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW, and even USB flash drive. To enhance it, Philips included picture enhancement functions where users may view the photos as a slideshow with music playback, rotate or zoom the pictures for more or lesser details.
Pros and Cons
Connection and set up is easy for this system. With the quick start guide and a user manual, an average user may easily hook up the system to the flatscreen tv at home without much opportunities for mistakes.
There is also the convenience of having one system that delivers playback for both sound and video without much compromise on quality. Philips HTS6120/98 is sufficient for an average user, however users must remember to check with dealers for compatibility issues.
Conclusion
Philips does a good job by launching a range of sound bars to keep up with the trend for this stylish type of sound systems and the HTS6120/98 is one of them. This system is suitable for those who do not wish to clutter a room with multiple speakers, and still wish to have the booming bass for better experience.

Is turning a sealed box into a ported one OK?
Okay, so I have an MTX "bass slammer" sealed box for 12" subwoofers.
Pretty soon I'm planning on buying some pioneer premier 12s to put in it, and I was wondering if it would be okay to install a couple ports (one on each side, because their is wood in the middle, seperating the woofers).
I'm just looking to get some more bang for the buck out of this box.
Here's the link to it:
http://www.amazon.com/Bass-Slammer-BS212S-subwoofer-enclosure/dp/B001VLBONY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1248495843&sr=8-1
And here's the dimensions of it:
28-3/8"W x 13-7/8"H x 12-13/16"D
So yeah, I was wondering if it would be okay to install two ports in this (one on each side), AND IF SO, what size ports would you recommend?
No, I would not recommend doing that...
That enclosure has an internal volume of about 1 cubic foot per chamber. Those 12" subs you want to put in it will need more internal volume to get the proper performance wanted.
If you try to add a port to that enclosure you would need to use one that has a very small diameter to prevent from having a long port. With a small internal volume a longer port is needed in order to have the same tuning frequency of the enclosure. By making the port have a smaller diameter you will shorten the port. The problem is that you will have very bad port noise if the port diameter is too small.
Anyway you look at it you are not going to be able to have good performance by trying to make that enclosure work. You will be best off getting a custom enclosure made for your subs or making an enclosure yourself with a proper design.
Good Luck!!!
