More than you pay for
2 of 2 found this helpful This is a value for money device. There's nothing amazing about it but there's nothing disappointing about it at the same time. It's just good value and it will do what you need it to do, pretty much all the things that the super expensive ones do but maybe a bit slower.

Great sounding system, foreign buyers beware!
These are one of the best reviewed surround sound speaker systems on the market for the money. So I bought a set from the United States as I couldn't find any available in Australia. I thought because they were available for purchase through ebay Australia that they would be suitable for use here. There were no warnings to advise otherwise. The subwoofer from this system needs to be plugged into a power point and was only rated for use in the United Utates and Canada. As the voltage in Australia is twice that of the United States and Canada it would have blown the subwoofer up. I was terribly disappointed. The seller offered to refund the purchase price, however at over $300 to return the system it wasn’t worth it.
My first thought was to buy a voltage step down transformer on ebay which I unfortunately did. Before receiving the step down transformer I found that it would be incompatible for use with the subwoofer as there is a problem with frequency. Australia uses 50hz and the US and Canada use 60hz. After extensive research, I found that using a device that has a transformer as its power supply (the subwoofer), the difference in hertz going from 60hz to 50hz can cause damage and/or overheating. I was not willing to risk this.
So after some time trying to track down a phone number, I was able to contact the company that sold and repair this system in Australia and was advised that they were able to supply an Australian compatible power supply and amplifier replacement unit for $165 to replace the existing one making the subwoofer compatible for use in Australia.
Once I was able to use the subwoofer with the the rest of the system, I was impressed with the high quality of the sound. I would recommend this system to anyone who wants a nice sounding surround sound speaker system. For the money it's fantastic. What I don't recommend is buying them from a country with an incompatible power source.
It would be nice, if not mandatory for ebay to make sure that people are aware when buying items from other countries that their products are compatible for use in the country from where they're being purchased or, at the very least give a warning to check for compatibility if it is not known. I was very unimpressed with the additional effort and cost that was required to make the system usable.

Nice case good value
I like this type of case. This style is useful when you don't want to carry a wallet. It has enough room for a couple of cards, a driver's licence and a little bit of cash. Most importantly, they do a nice job of protecting your phone. From a value for money perspective, they're hard to beat.
