I just received my Creative Gigasworks T40 speaker system. I remember reading in some review (can't find it again) that there were 2 versions: 1615 and 1616. The reviewer said the 1615 were the USA version where the power never goes off in absence of...

Yes, that is true. Don't bother to complain to Creative, they will just blow you off. Complain to Amazon. If it is within the return period they should be able to help you. Or even if not. They have stocked the wrong model.

I agree, this is a big issue. I also ordered this item from Amazon only to receive the older version with the stands and 75 watt power handling. I returned the item and informed Amazon. I bought locally so I could ensure I received the newer 200W speakers.

Philip M. Isidro says: I just got my package today and it says 260 Watt Max, but on Amazon it says 280 Watt Max. Pioneer states the TS-D1720C's are 260 Watt also... I know it's only a 20 Watt difference but.....false advertising? I AGREE, wtf Amazon? I Waited 2 MONTHS for mine to ship, even as a Paid Prime member. And then yesterday a box shows up and it is Clearkly marked "240 watts" I was PISSED OFF to say the least. 2 months ago I ordered all the other Pioneer stuff based on Pioneers "Stage 3" system. I had to search all over the place to Find a customer Service phone number and they have NO Clue at all, just to say they will send out another set, Another weekend GONE without being able to install my Stage 3 Pioneer system. After she(customer service) says she's sending me the Correct speakers and I hang up to WAIT all over again. I go to Pioneer USA and cannot find this speaker Amazon is advertising as 280watts at all. So I get on the phone with Pioneer, and Ask about the 280 watts set. THEY DON'T MAKE THEM IN 280 WATTS! I feel DECIEVED by Amazon and after having to Wait 2 whole Months to get them, to then have to call amazon to tell them they shipped me the Wrong speakers after Waiting 2 Months to get them. And they Still had NO CLUE, and are most likely sending me Another set of the 260 watt speakers since the "280 watts" DO NOT EXIST! I could have installed my stereo system 2 MONTHS AGO had Amazon advertised what they are selling CORRECTLY. I will most likely Drop my "Prime Membership" after this since you gotta Wait LONGER than the friggin Free Super Saver Shipping anyways.

i came here to ask same thing. love the speaker, really loud but battery went bad really fast and now i can only get about an hour use before it goes dead :'( and from others say i guess it's just a matter of time before it doesn't work at all.

Craig, thanks for your response. I asked a salesperson at an electronics store and he says that the 165W is probably referring to the power consumption not the total power and that would be typical for a 290W sub. What ate your settings showing in S. cal. and ind. speaker settings, if you don't mind sharing?

I'd like to know also what people think between the TRR0715 and the TRD0715T? Its seems people are complaining about the noise of the TRR0715. Doesn't the TRD0715T make the same noise?

I have the US model and it is 110V. Just remember is you buy it from Amazon, you do not have a warranty because they are not authorized vendor. B&W; is great at speakers, less so at electronics so you might need the warranty. My unit failed and B&W; won't honor the warranty because I didn't buy it from an authorized vendor. It is now an expensive paper weight.

DO NOT buy this!! Unless you are going to use it in a library! 1.Built-in loudspeaker protection circuit triggers when the amplifier is turned on to protect speakers from high volume bursts of audio. It should say 1.Built-in loudspeaker protection circuit triggers any time you turn the volume above 4 or 5 causing the hole thing to shut down. Making it pointless to have volume settings 5-10 on the knob! I think this is what was added to the newer model. But i could be wrong.

Hey Huy I'm not exactly sure why but it could be that this is an older model of the same speaker. Usually if the same model is on sale it is from last or previous years. I hope that this helps and let us know if you have any more questions. Thanks Jane H. Dogfunk Gearhead

If it is within 30 days of your purchase, return it. We had nothing but trouble with this TDK speaker. We got the Gboom for $99 and it works great and the charge lasts for several hours. Hope this helps. Good luck.

The 4665 was March 2007 and the 4061 was Feb 2007. I remember seeing March 2007 for the 4065 somewhere in my travels. Anyway, I just received the 4065 2 days ago - after 2 years of analysis paralysis. It is phenomenal! But let me say - I'm no audiophile or techie - just a regular person. I have not checked everything out yet - I can't get past marveling at the HD.

I always use 12AWG. I just bought 100' from Ebay that I really like because it is red and black. Get yourself some nice banana plugs too and you'll be hooked up sweet. I got those on Ebay too because the price was much better than anywhere else I looked. The items were all located in the US so shipping was fast. Happy listening! FYI, If you are going to bi-amp your speakers with the TX-NR616 you'll only get a 5.1 surround.

The difference seems to be in the input voltage, so it's not just the model number. Even though Philips web site for this lists that it accepts "110-240V", all of the main sound bar unit, subwoofer unit and the manual state that it accepts 120V only. If I knew this, I wouldn't have gotten it from USA.Getting big chunky adapter kind of defeats the idea of a soundbar that I wanted to mount on the wall, but I'll see if I can replace/upgrade the internal power supply instead.

Hi Rick, I would go with the EP-4000 over the iNuke any time I can. Of course there is also always the Seismic Audio Epicenter 5202 and Magnitude 2400 ;) The Epicenter is the closest power rating of any of these 4. The Magnitude is more powerful for more head room, but you can overload the speaker with that much power. The quality difference with these guys comes down to damping factor. The EP is &gt;300, but the Epicenter and Magnitude are &gt;400 for increased clarity. The iNuke has a lot of "power rating" but doesn't give the better performance.

I dont know but actually...I bought the FUGEE wifi sound speaker with the 40 hr. battery and it sounds a million times better than this. Its not a porting station but now that I only use this for porting due to the sound difference.
