König & Meyer 16085 Headphone Holder
It's awesome! I own some extremely expensive headphones and this is the appropriate stand for them. My headphones are very stable/secure when placed on this holder. There are no worries with them falling. With little effort, the holder can be attached to a flat surface (or a pole) and it won't move at all. The clamp although very tight, leaves no marks or damage to the desk where I use it. The holder is versatile and allows you to set it up vertically or horizontally. The people who designed this, put a great deal of thought into it and it shows! If you want a headphone holder, I think there is nothing better out there than this item.

Brilliant Product
1 of 1 found this helpful Easily the best CPU cooler I've used in 15 years and I only get high end coolers. It's a brilliant design, has an extremely good build quality, is very quiet and has a tremendous cooling effect. It's height allows tall RAM sticks to be used (and my RAM is very tall), but the height also gives the CPU fan a greater ability to cool wider areas around the CPU socket on the motherboard.
Most CPU coolers funnel air parallel to the motherboard and well away from it. These types of CPU coolers do provide a solid cooling effect for the CPU, but if you feel the heat around the CPU socket, on components like the VRMs, you'll find they are very hot. This often cause Motherboards to become unstable, because there is no air moving past them. So in reality, you end up with far more cooling than the CPU requires, but nothing on the motherboard's VRMs. This "top down" Noctua design provides substantial cooling for the CPU and the VRMs at the same time. Where I live (in Australia), it's damn hot and if I don't cool those VRMs, I will suffer from an unreliable system. It does make a difference and transforms the machine into a dependable system that will remain so for years.
I strongly recommend a top down CPU cooler desing and this Noctua is the finest example I've come across. It was an expensive purchase for a passive CPU cooler, but well worth it and great value.
Installation was straight forward and doesn't require a great amount of coordination to get it done.

Red boils faster!
1 of 1 found this helpful This thing boils fast! This might be so, because of the colour of the kettle. Good to grip and it looks great (online pictures fail to show how good it really looks).
I think this is a great kettle for a group or a family. It's not ideal for an individual, who wants to boil one cup of coffee and save on power consumption. As you can see, the base is very wide where the element is, which is probably why it's so damn fast! As such, you end up boiling 2-3 cups instead of just 1 unfortunately, due to the width and having a reasonable water level height (so that the element is not exposed to air).
I highly recommend this kettle. I like mine, but I think it needs a prancing horse symbol on the side!
