How does the Whistler XTR-265 vs Whistler XTR-140 or 145 compares with eash other? They all seem to be in the same price range.

Not sure, but for the price I pay it has been very satisfactory. It catches a few signals--like cell towers or others' radar detetors, but overall I've been very pleased

I do not have or ever used a model XTR-140 0r 145---The XTR-265 I currently use in one of my vehicles is well worth the moneyI paid. If you have a companion that is annoyed with the sound of loud units, the 265 is what you want, it lets you know in a more refined way. Has some false signals but most of the time, it is your best highway friend. I like Whistler Detectors.

Thank you! This was really helpful. I'm going with the ET-60, hope to test it out this weekend!

the difference between these two is one is 1600.1 and the other is 1500.1 and they are both great amps, CEA compliant if you feed them the power they want they will put out their rated RMS and some. I say go for the 1600.1 it has 100 watts more

I would say anything from 100 watts to 600 watts. I have run mine with a Gallien Kruger 700RB and also a Hartke 350. They can handle a high powered head, but I would recommend you start out at very low volume and not to blow them out. With my GK, I am now running a Seimic 4x10, and in a club setting, rarely have I had it over a 2 on the master volume. Tone is killer. Have also used my 2x10 with a 15" in another cab and sounded great that way too. One advantage to having a pair of 2x10's is the weight and ease of moving it. My 4x10 is heavy in comparison, but they sound pretty much the same. What amp head are you considering? I would say anything from 100 watts to 600 watts.

The alpine 12 is alright. It's a great speaker but it's rms handling isn't very high. I bought two of these. Dual 4 ohm . They hit hard but not hard enough. Remember, you get what you pay for. I have one orion hcca 12 that blows both of these out.

They really do the same thing. The 1200 charges quicker and has usb port for iPhone, etc and its heavier. I have the 150 and it is smaller and does the job. You are paying almost 100.00 more just for a usb port. They do the same thing and for the price the 150 is great. I use it for my optima batteries when Im not using my vehicle for a long period of time.

The ep4000 is more powerful than xls 1500. I own both amps, neither specifications are misleading you just hace to understand how amps work.

Not sure, if you are buying one I would go with something else. My sister has a passport and it works great. The whistler I have should be sold as an expensive paper weight.

The 352 has a 25 foot cord, the 356 (professional) is 30', the hard floor tools are different. The 356 has a microfiber 'dust pad' that goes over the hardwood floor attachment. The 352's hard floor attachment has a 'V' shape to funnel debris no pad, but it does have a duster attachment both available to purchase separately. The dust cup on the 356 is larger and the overall machine is 2 lbs heavier then the 352. 356 also comes with a bag for the tools where my 352 did not. The other tools all appear to be the same on both models. They both run the same amps and can be converted into canister mode as well, but are aesthetically different.

I have had good results with the Shimano ix1000R. It's a great buy on Amazon for less than $17.00

Stick with the WR-100 for home use. I have the HH50, but also have a home weather radio. The HH goes in my bag for work and outdoor activities.

I have both the 17-85 and the 15-85. The 15-85 is vastly superior. The 17-85 is a dust magnate.

I use both the 120 and the 130 headsets. The 130 has more features and also has slightly more base. Since I have high frequency hearing loss, I prefer the 120. I am able to let my wife use the 130 while I use the 120. One of the charging /transmitters is not plugged into the audio jacks and is simply used for a charging base. We do not specifically charge either headset on one base or the other, but instead use which base happens to be closest or empty. I also know that transmitting works for either, but as stated before the 130 has more features. (which I don't use) These are the best headsets I have ever used.

Thank you for your inquiry -the ESP factory pickups are really very good but the EMG 81/85 pickups is certainly a step up in quality. Hope this helps.

I can't compare the two, but reviews I read indicated specs for the 140 were better at the edges. I bought the 140 several months ago, and am very pleased with quality and speed.

I cannot compare to the E4C, however I have had the 315's for a few months now. I take BART in San Francisco. While I can hear the train during the transition between songs, I can barely hear a thing during the song at mid level volume. Make sure to look both ways when crossing the street, because you won't hear them coming :)
