Its fitting since today is Father's Day I'm going to post a article about my own Father's Day present. Normally this would be only a review, but since we're dealing with a classic set of speakers that needed a small amount of refurbishment prior to using them, its more of a voyage to achieve a...

Often when dealing with networking products we look at small office solutions or home networking needs. What if you need to network a medium to large office or an educational environment? What if your business is a call center or other data heavy environment? That's a lot of computers, cabling,...

Recently, the company I work for decided to switch all sales reps to an iPad Air in an effort to streamline our business versus the bulky laptops we used to have. My immediate reaction was excitement, but then the stress of trying to find the right accessories started to kick in. I would...

I got an email not too long ago telling me about the Musi app. I hadn't heard of it previously but I've been noticing that most music streaming apps I've been using have been having trouble with streaming. Currently Musi is only available for Apple products, but I was intrigued that it can...

Ever wanted to know all about audio reproduction, but were afraid to ask? Do Watts and SPL sound like terms normal people would never use in public? You're in luck! The head audio geek at TargetPC, or Bill as I'm known to some, has decided to put fingers to the keyboard to demystify the...

When you're building a PC system there's a lot you need to think of. Which processor to get, with what motherboard, which videocard, how much memory...and of course the one thing to hold and make it all work together: the computer case. Today I'll be reviewing the AZZA HURRICAN 2000 full tower...

In my endless quest of that just right sound I came across the MXR Custom Badass '78 Distortion. Seemingly, distortion would be the most important word in that product name. But Custom has severe connotations to electronic musicians and well, badass pretty much doesn't need an explanation. What...

When we think about zombie, what follows are usually thoughts such as nuclear weapons, expensive military weaponry and those really cool cars that are upgraded to take on zombies. But that doesn't come in Crazy Dave’s mind. No in fact he has a, unusual weapon. His best weapon, a...

Kicking off our first ever guitar review we actually have a bass. Normally I'm a guitar player but when the need arises I can pickup a bass.
Today we are looking at the Ibanez SRFF806 - one of the latest additions to Ibanez's SR line. If you haven't yet take a quick look at the pictures. What...

Well, well, well Sony. Looks like your so called "upper-hand" over the next-gen console competition may be gone. Xbox has just announced some pretty exciting news and may have me back on pre-ordering a console now rather then waiting that extra year. Check it out

We've had good experiences with Addonics and their innovative storage solutions. While an external DVD burner is nothing new Addonics has added the ability to have a hardrive as well as Blu-ray player in one unit. Did I mention it can also burn DVD's? This one solution promises to be able to...

I've been soldiering on with the same Sony VAIO laptop for quite some time. I love the keyboard and the screen is very good which are both high on my list of needs. My son is an avid gamer and wanted a laptop to web surf with and play games. We tried installing games on my laptop and found that...

Microcomputers literally surround us. They are in our tablets, phones, and even watches. What isn't readily apparent is that so many of those systems are locked in. You can write software for them but are limited by what the manufacturer allows you to do. You can link it to hardware, but in the...

Eminence has two distinct speaker lines directed at musicians who want the 'British sound' or 'American sound'. The British sound is the sound we like from rock bands of the 60's and 70's who needed a deeper sound with speaker breakup. Lots of bass and mids usually at the cost of highs are the...

As a veteran PlayStation® gamer and customer I can honestly
say that the console has greatly evolved since its first generation release.
The PlayStation was my first ever console and I've stuck with it through the

When I did the Quilter Toneblock review my son collaborated since he gigs live every week. His input was that he needed a reverb and from that point on he kept using the Quilter Aviator. Give it a month or so and we found the TC Electronics Trinity reverb. I'm a more is less kind of guy but my...

I'm not much of a gamer, and not a very good one either, but I find that there are still ways for me to enjoy my past time gaming. The Wii has always been one of my favorite ways to play games, especially games like Just Dance and Mario Kart. If you are wondering how the Wii and Wii U are...

I love taking long road trips. Two thousand miles over a few days is my idea of fun which I know for most people sounds like the beginning of a horror movie. If I get a few extra days to get to my destination I'll take side roads or smaller highways to meet the locals and see what I can find....
