It has a 3-way panhead with a quick-release platform, a geared center column, and non-slip rubber feet. The tripod comes in a handy vinyl carrying case. 3-way Panhead: The OS-500 is equipped with a 3-way fluid head, which can pan, tilt, and rotate 90° for vertical (portrait) photos. It has a quick-release plate with a standard 1/4" camera screw. The plate lets you quickly remove the camera from the tripod, and locks into the head with the shoe lever when returned to the tripod. The head has a single bubble level to help you get your pictures level perfect. 3-Section Aluminum Legs: The 3-section telescoping legs include quick lever leg locks for quick and easy leg positioning. The legs have radial leg braces for added stability. The non-slip rubber feet provide steady, free-standing support. The self-leveling feet have a ball-and-socket design for improved stability. Geared Center Column: The geared center column is equipped with a hand crank to make it easy and convenient to raise the panhead to the desired picture taking height. Handle: The OS-500 has a convenient carrying handle that allows you to easily move the camera to a new shooting position.

You can also attach a weight to the tripod for maximum stability. Specifications: Operating Height: Maximum: 57" Minimum: 21.5" Folded Length: 22.25" Weight: 2.4 pounds Loading Capacity: 4.5 pounds Diameter of Tripod Legs: 0.83" Product reviews from the Crutchfield Labs (what are the Labs?) Quick impressions from the Lab Comment by Ralph Graves Staff Writer - Creative, Lightweight, but packed Written by Ralph Graves, Staff Writer - Creative, on 4/3/2012 10:39:00 AM This is a lightweight tripod indeed. But that doesn't mean it's stripped-down. There are plenty of extras that make the OS-500 ideal for outdoor use. First, the feet are in ball sockets, so they can provide a more stable base on uneven terrain. Speaking about unevenness, there's a level built into the base to ensure the mount's perpendicular to the ground. And a second level under the quick-release plate is a welcome help for setting the mount properly. I also like the portability of this mount. There's a handle just under the brace so I can grab it and go. And if I'm going for more than a few steps, I can just throw it all into the travel bag and start hiking.

Replaced older broken exactly and at a great price. Pros: exact match Cons: none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 great value Written By Dave, Port Republic, VA on Saturday, September 27, 2014 Really a great tripod with any feature you'd want, very sturdy and easy to work with. Very light to carry and for the price I was pleasantly surprised. If I needed them I'd get 20 of them. Pros: Price, Light weight, has carry case, easy to operate and set up, Price, Head detaches to make it easy to thread the bolt into the camera so one does not cross-thread the receiver in the camera base, Did I mention price, Cons: I found nothing negative at all Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 BIG SURPRISE Written By Joe, Hudson, Fl on Saturday, September 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this as a scratch and dent item. Well, I still cannot see any defects in it. I was very surprised at the quality. It has many features for the price. I would highly recommend it. Pros: Light weight, easy to attach and remove the camera using the quick connect, disconnect. Leveling is easy using the already installed levels. Cons: No screw out pins on the feet for using outdoors. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Nice little tripod Written By Phil_B, Elkins, WV on Sunday, August 24, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I needed a small, lightweight tripod for a compact digital camera. I found this one as a scratch and dent item from Crutchfield at almost half price so I couldn't pass it up. It is quite sturdy for a small camera and is as fully functional as one many times the price. The quality may not be as high as a more expensive tripod but it does the job of holding the camera steady. The carrying handle is a nice touch. For the price this tripod is an excellent buy. Pros: Lightweight, compact, sturdy within its limits. Cons: Would not recommend for rough use. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 VERY SOLID AND STURDY Written By Dennis, Sun City Center FL on Monday, July 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This tripod is extremely well-made and is very sturdy and stable. It is replacing a cheap one that I got from a local retailer which broke during its first use. I am very happy with this tripod and for what I paid it was a great buy. Shipping from Crutchfield was free. I love shopping from Crutchfield as I can always trust their products to be superior. I am very, very pleased with this tripod. Pros: Solid and strong, very sturdy. It is easy to set all the extensions and legs; I had no trouble using it on the very first try. Cons: None that I can come up with! Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Excellent! Written By Jesse, Brownsville, TX on Thursday, June 05, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I was a bit hesistant to purchase a tripod. I've never owned one but I knew it was time to purchase one. I bought this one primarily for the low price. I was shocked to see how easy it was from opening the box to setting it up. It was a breeze. I love the handle built into the tripod. The carry case that is included is a plus. I highly recommmend this product. Pros: Easy setup, lightweight but sturdy Cons: None that I have found yet. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great Value!!! Written By TJ, VA on Thursday, February 27, 2014 Burned through two crappy tripods from another retailer. Finally broke down and went to Crutchfield to pick-up something a little more durable. Although this product was only $15 more than the tripod I purchased previously from the other retailer, it is considerably better built. It's not top notch, but at this price it's a bargain. Should serve well under light to moderate use - unlike the ones from the other retailer that will fall apart in your hands under light use because the plastic parts are so cheap and thin. Pros: Affordable and durable. Cons: Not large, but not super portable either. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Tripod Written By Joe, Ashville,NC on Monday, December 23, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The tripod works great , easy to use and is steady when positioned. Pros: Easy to use and adjust Cons: none Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Tripod Written By Tom, Steamboat Springs Colorado on Thursday, November 21, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The tripod I got is amazing. I have had so many great shots and videos using it! Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Inexpensive and Light Written By DMA, Dallas, TX on Sunday, June 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) For what it is, this is a great little tripod. If you're looking for something that will hold a heavy piece of equipment on a blustery day, this probably isn't for you, but for most of us using lighter-weight equipment, it does fine. The head locks down pretty solidly, and it has something of a "fluid effect" smoothness, but it's not the absolute best for videography. Still, for the price, it has a lot of nice little touches, like a weight hook and carrying handle (if you choose not to use the included case). It came bundled with my Fuji X-S1, and it holds this chunky camera without any issue. Pros: Lightweight, inexpensive. Cons: Not the sturdiest, but good for the price if used for light duty. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 tripod review Written By dan h, chicago,il on Friday, May 31, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) very nice piece for the money. I was very skeptical as it was an open box but the item arrived in very new condition. looked like it had never been opened. Pros: very good range. pan head works well but isn't phenomenal. range is smooth but if your looking for a professional unit this isn't it. for the money this is a very good value. Cons: definitely not a professional unit but nice and extremely sturdy for the money paid. Was this review helpful? Yes | No 4 out of 5 very light and adequately functional Written By ShivV, Houston, TX on Wednesday, May 08, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) When you pick up this tripod - you are bound to notice the light weight. Tripod is very functional with two level displaying bubbles, pan head and directional adjustment, accessory hook etc. understanding how to operate is a breeze. I like that you can take out the base screw camera to it and easily attach it to the mount. I was ready to take this out of box and start shooting. it was shipped quite fast too. happy with the purchase. Pros: Light weight, not expensive, easy to operate Cons: Does not seem super sturdy, cover bag seems a little cheapish 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 3 out of 5 Tripod Written By ojohnsten, Kearney, ne on Sunday, December 16, 2012 ok, tripod. Not the most sturdy thing I have used but it works. I have not been a big fan of the specialized base that you have to attach so that whatever you want to mount, mounts to the tripod head. Why don't they just put a screw in the head to screw into whatever you want to mount? Pros: light weight. Cons: specialized base the you have to mount to whatever, then clip into the tripod head. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Yes | No 3 out of 5 OSN OS-500 Written By Aurel, Detroit, MI on Thursday, May 31, 2012 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This tripod is OK, especially for the price. Fit&finish is good, and the tripod is stable...except a small loose into its head. I had to exchange mine because the first one I received had it head's thread totally worn out (the camera was floating). Thanks Crutchfield for the quick exchange. Overall it's ok for my novice use Pros: cheap, quick installation/removal of the camera, tripod stable Cons: tripod's head is a bit loose, loose some precision here. Might not last long if you use it hard 6 out of 6 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Sign up for a Crutchfield account Overview Details Customer Reviews Articles & Videos Accessories Our take on the MTX TDX35 Value and performance If you're looking to upgrade from your factory speakers, MTX designed their Thunder Dome series speakers for efficiency, so they'll give you plenty of performance even when powered by your factory stereo. And MTX made sure that all these speakers deliver extended bass response, from the modest 3-1/2" to the big bruiser of a 6"x9". Best of all, they're protected by MTX's unique 5-year warranty. Music lovers, rejoice The TDX35 3-1/2" 2-way speakers deliver a surprisingly full sound, courtesy of a polypropylene woofer cone with a butyl rubber surround. The 3/4" PEI dome tweeter does a great job of broadcasting the high frequencies through your vehicle, bringing out the details you might otherwise miss. These speakers handle up to 25 watts RMS, so you crank the tunes up and still get clean sound. Grilles are not included – factory grilles are appropriate for most installations.

That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box, verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs. We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices. Features Woofer Cones: The MTX TDX series speakers feature durable and rigid polypropylene woofer cones. Polypropylene is also resistant to the moisture and temperature extremes found in automotive applications. Butyl Rubber Surrounds: The butyl rubber surrounds dampen unwanted harmonic distortion while maintaining linear geometry under extreme conditions. This leads to less distortion, superior frequency response, and superior durability. PEI Tweeters: Each speaker features a 3/4" PEI (Poly-Ether-Imide) dome tweeter; PEI is a polymer film that produces a wide soundstage for superior imaging. Warranty: Although the speaker reviewed and measured (taken from our first shipment) included information indicating a 1 year warranty, MTX recently changed to a 5-Year Prorated Warranty with the following terms: Years 1-2: Products found to be defective in materials or workmanship during the first two years will be, at Mitek's option, repaired or replaced by Mitek at no charge. The warranty period does not renew, but continues on from the original date of purchase. Years 3-5: The purchase price of an item which becomes defective after the first two years and prior to the end of the warranty period will be prorated and credited toward the purchase of a new MTX product. The amount of proration is determined by dividing the original purchase price by the number of months in the warranty period (60), then multiplying the result by the number of months remaining in the warranty period.

Yes | No 4 out of 5 Great buy for the money Written By MF, Hot Springs AR on Sunday, March 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Installed these speakers in the dash of a 04 Ram pickup equipped with factory infinity system. The truck had the factory RB1 Navigation stereo head unit made by Alpine which I wanted to keep so I looked for speaker replacement to get a better sound,. I went with Infinity reference for the doors and these for the dash. The factory Infinity amp puts out 2 ohm and these are 4 ohm speakers. Now you can run a wire from pos to neg to get them in parallel for a 2 ohm load but I hooked them up as is first to see how loud they would be. They are LOUD. A 2 ohm load would be louder but they are very loud as they stand. Very clear highs, good sound reproduction, perfect for factory sound upgrades. Pros: Great price, looks well made, perfect for factory sound upgrades Cons: Sound is a little metalic, sharps are a little too sharp, not very good for mids reproduction. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

CIM History: The Beginning
The dream of a conservatory in Cleveland, Ohio became a reality in April 1920 when a small group of founders contributed $1,000 each to establish a "school of music where every type of student could find opportunity for the best musical education." Temporary studios at the Hotel Statler sufficed until a facility was found.
The Cleveland Institute of Music opened its doors on December 8, 1920 at 3146 Euclid Avenue in a grand house with grand ideals. Ernest Bloch, the esteemed composer, was named the first musical director, and Martha Bell (Mrs. Franklyn B.) Sanders became executive director. The mission, proclaimed by Mr. Bloch, relayed the forethought that has guided the Institute throughout its history: "Musical education, in addition to the thorough study of technique, ought above all else, to develop qualities of appreciation, judgment and taste, and to stimulate understanding and love of music."
Willard M. Clapp was president of the board. Faculty were already in place. Nathan Fryer, a pupil of Leschetizky, taught piano and ensemble. Cleveland Orchestra members Louis Edlin, concertmaster, and Victor de Gomez, first cello, were hired. For a term of 24 weeks, at a cost ranging from $150 to $500, one could study an instrument, theory and composition, chorus singing or ensemble, and rhythm and ear training.
By the second calendar year, Beryl Rubinstein (later a director) and Ruth Edwards (future chair of the Preparatory piano department) had joined the piano faculty. The 20-person faculty included André de Ribaupierre, violin; Edwin Arthur Kraft, organ; Jean Binet, Dalcroze Eurhythmics and theory; and Roger Sessions, composer.
Moving to 2827 Euclid Avenue in November 1922, the Cleveland Institute of Music established a Preparatory Division "to awaken the feeling for rhythm and develop the sense of observation and discrimination." Dalcroze Eurhythmics took a central position at the Institute, having been taught for the past ten years throughout Europe. The two-year course in "the art of expressing musical ideas by means of bodily movements" was a requirement for all students at the Cleveland Institute of Music, as it still is today.

Hi. My Name is Hasnaat Naushahi. I was born with a congenital heart disease. I was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension in 2005 at the Royal Hallamshire Hospital in Sheffield [England]. I am on Bosentan, Tracleer. I'm taking a monthly blood test in Sheffield. Pulmonary Hypertension really affects my family in a bad way because I'm always in and out of hospitals in the cold weather and I always have really bad chest infections. I get blue in my lips, fingers, fingernails and toes.

Sony CDX-M20 marine CD receiver Don't settle for a regular car CD receiver in your boat — choose one that's built to stand up to the demands of the marine environment. Sony's CDX-M20 marine receiver uses a UV coating to protect the face from sun damage, along with a conformal-coated circuit board that resists moisture. It'll keep your boat rocking for years of fun on the water. Plenty of entertainment options You can play your store-bought and recordable CDs on this Sony, including discs you've loaded with MP3 or WMA files. For more variety, you can jack your iPod® or any other portable into the handy front-panel auxiliary input. Satellite radio's a big favorite with sailors, because of its great offshore reception. You can plug an optional satellite radio tuner into the CDX-M20 for an unparalleled variety of music, sports, talk, and news. Sony XS-MP1611 marine speakers Marine speakers don't just need to sound good — they need to last, too. Sony's XS-MP1611 marine speakers have the auditory bases covered, thanks to a dual-cone design, and they also meet tough marine standards for durability. Sony designed this marine receiver to work with wired and wireless remotes, but no compatible remotes are currently available.

Love you mags for over 30 ye, tampa fl on Saturday, August 09, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) nice to see some sonys in the line up Pros: lot of marine opt, ulike the normal cheap stuff Cons: wish sony would stop china production Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Sony CXS-M2016 Marine Package Written By FrankC, Markham, On on Saturday, September 22, 2012 Bought this system for my boat and must say sounds good, the speakers (6 1/2") give you some bass, but if you want a lot of bass, get a sub-woofer and an amp,( which can be added to this system).This system has great expandability.The package should have come with an antenna, i bought a cheap wire antenna and this worked fine . The receiver even came with a wire-less remote, for the money , this package gives you great value ! Pros: great value, expandability, good sound, wire-less remote Cons: no antenna, odd speaker terminal size, no detachable face / remote storage cover 15 out of 16 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 5 out of 5 Great Marine Deck Written By Anonymous, Anchorage, AK on Wednesday, July 04, 2012 This receiver was bought to replace an aging twin shaft US marine radio sill present in my 1992 Bayliner Capri. This receiver, along with the included speakers in the package, really woke the boat up. The speakers are great, and seem that they are built well enough to withstand high volume when cruising. If you're looking for a cheap receiver that will stand up and sound awesome, you can't go wrong with this combo. Pros: Good power, sounds awesome. CD player works great without skipping. Cons: Main volume knob hard to use when boating because bass settings will come up if the center button is pressed. This becomes annoying when trying to adjust the volume. 18 out of 19 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes | No 1 question already asked Are the speakers waterproof? Even under the hardtop enclosure, the boat still needs to be washed / hosed down. Getting wet, not just humidity-soaked or light spray, is inevitable in a marine environment. [ Kevin Feb 02, 2014 ] 2 answers Hi Kevin, these look more like they are water resistant and not so much water proof. Although, as long as they are not going to be submerged in water, i believe that they will be fine. When i wash the boat, i will not be concerned with water getting into the important pieces as long as i just do not hit it with a pressure washer.

No Sleep 'Till Berlin: Toby Goodshank and the Waking Dream of Truth Jump Fall (EXCLUSIVE–VIDEO PREMIERE)
A Post-Post-Rock Exclusive! The video premiere of "The Journey Back Down Jump Truth Mountain," directed by Nathan Gulick, from Toby Goodshank's 2011 album Truth Jump Fall. This premiere and subsequent review of Truth Jump Fall is the first in an in-depth series of three articles about the life, music, and visual art of Goodshank–a "TG Triptych," essentially.
After amassing a more-than-substantial solo discography of over 15 albums (not to mention numerous other collaborations), in October 2011 singer-songwriter/NYC anti-folk mainstay Toby Goodshank released what would be his last solo record stateside before his forthcoming move to Berlin. At eight songs, this collection entitled Truth Jump Fall combines the length of an EP with the thoughtfulness and serious intent of a full-length.
The genesis of the album is an intriguing one. After recurring nightmares related to the passing of his father a few years ago had subsided, Goodshank began to have a series of vivid dreams instead, from which Truth Jump Fall would emerge. Rather than dreaming narrative scenes, the artist envisioned melodies, lyrics, and instrumental passages. One gets the sense that Goodshank had no other choice but to sing these songs and document them for the world at large.
The video for Goodshank's "The Journey Back Down Truth Jump Mountain"–directed by Nathan Gulick, with costume design by Liz Abbot–is a narrative snapshot of a young social outlier making her way down Hollywood Boulevard, an area Gulick refers to as "like a seedy shopping mall." "Toby mentioned to me that a lot of the writing of the album came from dream imagery so I wanted it to be dream-like, nightmare-ish [sic] really," explains Gulick. "The back story is of someone that maybe got a little bit of a break, overplayed it and alienated her friends, moved to LA and then blew it, and ended up lost on Hollywood Blvd."
In casting the video's protagonist, Gulick explains the choice of Pepper Bridge:
We had a small casting session and found a couple actresses that looked cool but not rough and vulnerable like Pep. They had to be able to rock the Elvis shades (which were for a long time a Goodshank staple) without looking too 'rockstar' – they had to be more like they were a pose or a shield.
Pepper Bridge's character is estranged from the world in which she finds herself, yet is undeterred by her troubled presence in it. She comes across as an extension of the characters that steadfastly trudge through Goodshank's songs–the real-life embodiment of the experiences and feelings expressed in the music.
Produced, arranged, engineered, and mixed by Jack Dishel—a former bandmate with Goodshank in The Moldy Peaches—the album Truth Jump Fall is a group of tightly coiled, highly personal songs that showcase a solo artist brimming with maturity. There is a sweet vulnerability throughout, tempered with an unwavering resolve lying just under the surface. As with all Goodshank songs, the songwriter's voice is the nucleus around which the other musical parts move. An endearing nasal tone that hints at The Decemberists' Colin Meloy intertwines seamlessly with the melodic phrasing and corporeal lyrical sensibility of Jeff Mangum (formerly of Neutral Milk Hotel). The resulting alchemy yields a deceptive musical concoction with a rather paradoxical taste: an ethereal, nonthreatening mouth-feel at first sip, it finishes with raw earthiness. It's all very bittersweet, and it works. A perfect encapsulation of this signature quality of the Toby Goodshank persona can be found in the opening lines of the album closer "My Reflection":
Horrible companion, you mean to do me harm/Disenfranchised concubine, catch a bullet scar/ Within you, jacked off to the desert sand/ We're both failures clutching ruined plans
Goodshank's world is populated with weathered yet beautiful souls—his among them—mangled in their circumstance; but the artist's take always avoids judgement. He is reverentially honest in his insightful takes on the fragile human psyche and its simultaneously conflicting emotional states, a fact evidenced even in song titles such as "Baby I Feel Like Just Got Cut in Half." As stated in the incisive "Prelude to Fire," an album highlight, the prevailing philosophy of the album seems to be "When truth collides with revisionist attitudes, we will not place blame, we will seek a higher plane."
Given the melancholic focus of the singer's words, this higher plane is in part only achievable through the potency of Goodshank's musical accompaniment, with its carefully crafted combination of propellant power-chord riffs, and folksy "comfort food" finger-picking—which possess a kind of mystical life-affirming power of their own. In this way, what otherwise could have been pessimistic songcraft dominated by its indebtedness to the lyrical legacies of post-punk and grunge instead evinces a sobering hope without detracting from unwavering emotional realities.
The vitality of Jack Dishel's contribution to the record can't be overstated: he provides the bulk of the additional instrumentation with understated atmospherics and economical, somehow intimate arrangements that closely hug the minimalist, lo-fi songwriting of aesthetic of Goodshank.
Truth Jump Fall can be found at Toby Goodshank's Bandcamp site.

I was just wondering how long has Martin been making this bow line? Are they cheaper or higher, and how do they shoot? That Alien X looks very good to me.

The Rytera bow line is Martin's elite series, Im not sure how long they have offered this line maybe back to 05 or 06 , but they definately are not cheaper than a Martin.
I don't know, Matt. I've been seeing prices of about $699 for the AlienX and that ain't bad considering. Hey, what did the Slayer go for? How about the WartHog? That Alien might be right in the thick of things this year. Now if they'd just start making it with an ATA of about 36" I would have ordered one.
They kind of went crazy with the short bow idea this year. I guess they have to make what people think they want. You know. Those bowhunters are at least 90% of the sales.

That is true on the ATA and bowhunting. I just sold my Mathews switchback XT and bought the firecat. The XT was only 31"ATA but shot good but it lacked on the energy, and in hunting you got to have the energy. The more I shoot this firecat the more I like it.
Based on the MSRP differential between the Firecat and the Warthog, you are looking at a potential $900 sticker for a hypothetical 36" Rytera. The upcharge from the Firecat to the Warthog is about 30% ($580 up to $750). Add that to the $699 Rytera and it comes to just over $900 for a 36" Alien. If it truly costs an extra 30% to build up essentially the same bow from 32" to 36", I can certainly see the hesitation to come out with a longer Alien. Based on the initial impression, I'm sure there would be a pretty good line of guys willing to shell out $900 for this hypothetical bow but would it be enough to warrant design and production? I believe the riser on the Alien is one-piece rather than the 3-piece modular riser of the firecat/warthog, so the cost differential may be different.

Where have you read anything about the 36" Rytera?

My comment was just in response to bfisher comparing the price of the 32" Alien to the prices of the longer ATA Slayer and Warthog and his wish for a 36" version. I have heard several others making the same suggestion that Rytera should produce a 36" Alien but nothing I have read suggests that it would be reality any time soon. Sorry for the confusion.
Chris, I think you have your figures mixed up a little. MSRP on the FireCat (camo) is $629 and $749 on the Warthog. MAP is $580 and $700 respectively. Even so, I get your point, but you can't blame a guy for dreaming, right?
Something else to think about would be that to accomplish the ATA they'd have to redesign the cam to be either...A- smaller or....B smaller module----to get down to my 26.5-27" draw length.
Like you said, not gonna happen any time soon.
Hey Simon---RELAX. You're gonna have a heart attack. Go have your own dream. This one is mine. LOL.

Do not tell me what to dream about. I like the riser of the Alien but as we all know.... Everything under 32" Draw length is not useful for me.
I found out yesterday that i would have to increse my drawlength to around 32.-32.5 to use handhelf releases like the Evo+...
