Has anyone been able to do a comparison between this and the Marpac DOHM DS? I'm curious how it compares since it is less than half the price.

I have a Marpac in my bedroom and this one in my daughters room. The Marpac has been around for a couple of years now with no issues. This one may actually be slightly louder but I've noticed a buzzing sound coming from this one. I could see this one going out after a couple of years. We use both machines every night between 6-12 hours

My sister-in-law owns the DOHM, and used it while visiting us. We'd been using a fan in the baby's room, but wanted something safer once she was in a bed. The sound seems very similar, if not the same (haven't done an actual side by side comparison) and has been great. I will say we got two, and one did have a bit of a smell for the first day or two, but no issues other than that. I'm really happy we saved the money and went with the knockoff!

I have a marpac that I love. It has been around for years without issue. I got cheap and bought these. They seem identical however they dont get quite as loud and are not as sturdy. After only a few months one of my sleep easy units rattles internally when on high. It was not dropped or damaged in any way. I have lugged my Marpac to hotels and families houses for years. I wish I would have gone with the Marpac.

I do not feel the Marpac comes close. I have worked in the medical field some 25 years. The Marpac is used for exam room privacy as well as in therapists offices. The variable sound and speed on the Lectrofan is what convinced me. The Marpac is fine for quieting conversation, to a certain extent. I am a very light sleeper, and since having the Lectrofan, I have raised and lowered the volume based upon what is going on outside my house and in other rooms of my home. I am still just as pleased with the product as I was when I removed it from the box the first night I tried it! I found the sound more realistic and tolerable. Good luck, you can return if dissatisfied.

Please post a link if you know this specific model is on sale somewhere! :) I've seen the lesser versions (1810TZ and 1410) on sale and people confuse them with the 1810T, but this is the specific one I'm hoping to buy ASAP!

I'd say just bite the bullet and buy the BMD one for around $240. NEVER had a problem with it.

When I ordered this guitar a couple years ago, it shipped with EMG actives. That was the reason I upgraded from the Omen 6 when I saw this on Amazon for $250. The Schecter pickups were alright, but the EMGs are a huge improvement

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

I like mine. It performs well and, in my opinion, it's worth the money. However, if you're expecting the kind of sound described in your question, I think you are going to have to spend more money for something more powerful. Good luck.

I've never experimented Marntz consolette but as far as I have used BW a7 it's quite loud. And gives a rich bass when you play it in high end. It has sharp and clear sound even in high volume. The only thing i am not satisfied with this product is I prefer low end bass. I love playing music in low volume with high base which i found missing on it. Otherwise it is a great piece. I't will shake the party night. I would say find out ur preference first. If u go for loud and crisp with deep punching bass then for it there is nothing wrong.

To be truthful, I didn't even check. I bought it for my young daughter who instantly fell in love with it. It's a very nice instrument, and she plays it often. Has a great sound (though i would spend a few bucks and get a better set of mallets) We wanted to upgrade from the 2.5 octave glockenspiel to something a bit bigger and this was the only realistic option within my budget. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who likes percussive instruments!

From what I've read, the little one sounds exactly like mine, the one for $132. I would buy the cheaper one. I use it every day and love it!!

I had one SA12 on 1200watts and it handled it like a champ. These subs are way underrated. Look into the Soundqubed HDS300's. They are about $50.00 cheaper. I replaced my SA with one and the HDS rapes the SA. Optimal enclosure specs on both. The Hds plays the lower end and the higher end quite noticeably better. But taking nothing away from the SA's. They are badass!

Bought mine for the $30 price. I agree with Bryan that it's probably just different sellers. Go with your wallet!

It's plenty loud with the attached cord. And considering the Motorola EQ5 has recently doubled in price to $50, the Spracht is easily the better value. Despite the hype, the Motorola is "bass-less" and is not a speaker suitable for reproduction of music. This Spracht is close in quality to the $85 Logitech Z515 and has a more stylish appearance. My only problem with it has been getting it to see my Blue Toothed Apple equipment (computer and iPod). 2 other speakers deserve consideration: the Creative D100 ($70) and the Motorola EQ7 (made by JBL). But this Motorola has, in just the past 2 months, risen in price even more than the EQ5 (practically doubling), so I'd be hesitant to give in to the Motorola asking price. The Spracht is the most speaker for the money--providing you aren't required to fuss over the Blue Tooth capability.

Well i owned it for maybe four days and used it maybe 8 hours total. On the fourth day the hi-hat completely stopped working and i could hear the snare becoming less audible. I ended up returning it and goin with the yamaha dtx 400 kit. The pads are a bit smaller but as soon as you recieve you can tell that they're much more durable than the alesis. I've had it about a month now, no problems. The dtx is also better to accommodate people of different sizes. Plenty area to adjust pads to your liking because I'm pretty tall and I sit a lot more comfortably with the height of the dtx as apposed to alesis. I saw several different bundles of the dtx on amazon. Most right around 500. Great buy for the price! Well i owned it for maybe four days and used it maybe 8 hours total.

Dan, keep looking and you will find the Saffire for less than the PreSonus 24/96. Personally, I was focused on getting the Saffire Pro 40 and was monitoring the price every day here in Amazon. Found an awesome deal, pulled the trigger and never looked back. This is my current interface and my next upgrade is to pair it with an OctoPre from Focusrite. Can't go wrong with Focusrite.

Thanks for the tips. I ordered the VRDMC5 then went to ebay and searched for the DVS. Found five for sale-only three were new. I purchased on wiht Buy it Now option for $34.95. Am anxious to try both in combination.
