Important notes
Please, before you decide to buy Cosmos APU, make sure that you completely understand what is it. Analog Processing Unit is the first in its kind device on the market, hence, you need to understand do you really want:
a) to do the measurement of your DAC/AMP distortions@1kHz/10kHz at <-150/-130db harmonics level, or THD+N@1kHz down to -132db. In that case, you need the Notch part of Cosmos APU.
b) measuring your DAC/AMP DR/SNR with the residual APU's noise 130nVrms(A) with the Preamp of Cosmos APU.
c) to rip vinyl records with the Preamp of Cosmos APU + Cosmos ADC with built-in DSP RIAA EQing. Please, check Cosmos ADC page to find the CosmosAdc_v13_RIAA.hex.
d) to use a Pro condenser mic with 48V phantom power with the Preamp of Cosmos APU.

Remember that the input voltage for the APU's Preamp should be <=3.5Vrms, and <=10Vrms for Notch. Overvoltage of inputs may damage the unit, as a result, usually, input 0603 10ohm resistors will be burned.
Often the 2nd harmonic(H2) APU performance strongly depends on the symmetry of your particular bench/setup, hence, it is a good idea to use a power-bank, USB ISO, or battery-powered laptop for the ADC after APU. Often, a symmetry-related issue would be noticed if H2 levels are different after changing the input polarity.
To avoid accidentally turning On the phantom-power and further damaging the DUT tied to the Preamp input, we placed the blocking red plastic bar into the 48V power switch. Please, take it out before working with a condenser mic. Never turn On the 48V power without a mic but if you did that, please do not insert the plug into the 3.5mm input jack at least 10s after 48V power is Off, or also, you can see the orange LED(48V auxiliary indication)D light inside of the jack, please wait for the light dimming down.

Works as it should
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
I started a new job a few months ago and I get to work from home one day a week. They do not pay for you to set up a home office however, so I was looking for a cheap monitor for part of my set up. I came across this one and decided to try it out.
I work in client service for a finance company so a lot of what I use it for is email, other conversational programs, and then our custodian software. I’m not doing anything crazy. I have it connected to a name brand laptop and it was very easy to set up with no issues. It turned right on.
The picture quality is nice. Again, I’m not doing editing or anything on this so it works for what I need. It does NOT have speakers, so I do need to use the speakers on my laptop( which can be annoying), but again it’s not a deal breaker.
I have been using it now for 5 months and it’s been working really well for my set up. I am thinking of getting a second monitor and I would get another of these but also I do want a speaker so I don’t know that I would get this exact version.
For the price, if you are looking for something basic for normal work from home needs, this does the trick!

pretty good
Size: 24 inch 100Hz
Philips' 24-inch Frameless Full HD Monitor has the same type of attraction that the sleek lines and frameless edge provide as the utility that the product provides in terms of work and entertainment. Frameless edge helps provide the fashionable and streamlined appearance, while the 23.8-inch display provides the Full HD (1920x1080) resolution that creates the crisp images that are ideal for daily usage.
Establishment and Link:
Installation of the monitor is usually simple and easy, and the process is not difficult to complete and comprehend by the user. It includes one HDMI and one VGA socket in order to support most equipment. It lacks internal speakers, yet external speakers or headphones must be utilized if one desires sound output from the monitor.
Performance
It has the feature of supporting up to 100Hz display refreshes for smoother graphics when doing regular computing tasks. While good enough for general applications, there were comments that said that accurate color calibration to function is problematic and that this is one area that needs investigating if you're doing high accuracy color precision tasks.
These include:
A. Design
Aside from the frameless feature, the monitor also impresses by being light in weight and having a sturdy base. The stand itself is also adjustable so the user has the opportunity to tilt to the convenience. VESA mounting support is also included on the monitor for the convenience of the user who would want varied mounting options. Reddit
Conclusion
Philips 24-inch Frameless Full HD Monitor offers the perfect form and function blend at the unbeatable price. Easy installation, two ports for connection, and the slim profile make it perfect for those consumers who require a no-frills monitor for general computing use. Purchasers will have to balance the fact that there are no speakers built-in and potential differences in the accuracy of the color calibration to decide if the display is perfect for their specific requirements.

WOW! This printer has been VERY impressive thus far *UPDATE*
Color: Black, Style: ET-2800-B, Pattern Name: Printer
My old printer broke (sooner than I would have liked) so I did A LOT of research before deciding to buy this Epson EcoTank printer for home office use. This is my honest review of it this far and I will definitely update my review if I run into any issues.
So far, this printer has been pretty impressive (I've been using it for about a month). The price was pretty average for a printer... but I personally think all printers are overpriced so it was a bit more than I would have liked to spend. It is smaller and more lightweight than I was expecting which is a plus because it takes up less desk space than my previous HP printer.
It is very easy to set up, comes with step-by-step easy instructions and guided instructions through the app. It only took me about 10 minutes (Mostly just waiting for the printer to initialize on its own). It is very easy and surprisingly satisfying to fill the ink tank. I like the idea that this ink might last longer than traditional cartridges and won't have as much plastic waste that went along with my old HP Inkjet.
I have printed plain black and white documents as well as photos. I print all my photos at home, which is most of the printing that I do, so quality was important to me. The photos came out with pretty good quality! No ink smudges or off colors, colors are bright/vivid, and it is easy to modify what paper you're using with automatic prompts on the printer.
Now for the negatives and the reason I'm giving this 4 stars... app to printer connection issues. This was a big issue with my old printer as well. I'm pretty tech savvy and I just have no idea why this is still always an issue for me. There is an extra Epson app that you are supposed to download for printing. Sometimes it can find my printer, sometimes it can't. Sometimes it gives me printer errors or won't let me print documents. And now every time I go to print something it says the paper being used doesn't match the paper settings so I have to bypass that error message (even though it does match in settings and the app, and this happens for both regular paper and photo paper). I've turned everything off and back on again, but the issues with consistent connection and error messages are still an issue.
Usually with some fiddling around, I can get the documents/pictures to print but sometimes it feels like I'm jumping through unnecessary hoops. I'm still working out the kinks so if I find some magic solution I'll update my review. Considering this is an issue with most home printers I've used, it's not a deal breaker.
All in all, if you are looking for a new home printer, I would definitely recommend this one. The quality has been great for me and I am pleased with my purchase (so far).
Hope this helps!
*UPDATE*: I have now printed HUNDREDS of photos, they are all excellent quality, and my ink tanks are still mostly full. This is WAY better than my HP printer as far as ink longevity. Changing my review to 5 stars just based on how long this ink lasts. User interface is still a tad annoying but so worth it regardless.
