In search of a couple of decent speakers to add to my stereo system, I was about to just order from…read moreAmazon when a friend suggested Lifestyle. It's close to home so I popped in to see what it had to offer. George, the owner, spent loads of time showing me speakers and talking about each pair's attributes. I listened to about 6 different sets (something you can't do on Amazon) and went home with a great pair from Q Acoustics. Decent price too! I'll definitely go back and recommend highly!

We were needing an update for our TV/audio system. The folks at Longwire were not only reasonably…read morepriced, they were timely, knowledgeable and kept us informed at all times. I will absolutely use them again in the future and I highly recommend you give them a look.

We are not technical people. At all. Since the dawn of high speed internet, nothing has worked…read moreproperly in our house. We have tried all kind of companies and all kinds of band-aids. Once we finally decided to fix the tech in the house for once and for all, we called several places and got a few bids. When Chuck from Longwire came into the house, he walked around with us, listening to all the irritants and issues and things we hoped for and created a solution that has finally made everything work reliably and effectively. They were thorough and thoughtful and scheduling was convenient and quick, even though we were working around the holidays. They even finished the project a day early. They have also been open and helpful about some questions I had after the fact and I anticipate they will continue to be that way moving forward.

I always find what I need at Microcenter. Between the great prices on 3D printing filament and the…read moreextensive collection of choice computer hardware, I make excuses just to visit. The staff is ALWAYS friendly and knowledgeable, so don't be afraid to ask them if you need help. They also have a amazing selection of cool toys and activities for the kiddos! They also have online ordering, which saves me tons of time when I am in a hurry.

Located in a very safe and friendly area of Overland Park, Micro Center is THE PLACE for all your…read morecomputer needs. While there are places on the internet one can get quality systems from, I'm a hands on person so I like to go in, check out computers and talk to people while customizing. Moreover, I like to walk around and Micro Center appeals to my inner nerd. So, what does Microcenter offer, well lots of computers, accessories and everything an aspiring nerd needs to enter the digital world in style. If you're a graphical artist, they have drawing tables and stylist, musically inclined they have adapters to cover that too along with software but I encourage research or talking to a sales rep before buying. How about that keyboard that fits those tired hands? I see a dozen options before we even get into the backlit keyboards. Mice with over 20 buttons for those hardcore gamers will also tempt you. How about a laptop for computing on the go? Well that "buying best" place can only dream of as many options. As for me, while I've built my computer before I decided to let MicroCenter take care of it. The installation cost was low and I was able to build my "super computer" for cheap, a warranty and it was done within three days. What was a lot of fun is the saleman and I talked for about 45 minutes about World of Warcraft b/c he's a player as well. Although he did try and sell me a monitor however I have that covered. I did browse the TV section out of curiosity and noticed their prices and inventory are competitive with other stores as well. I'll admit, I love this place and it's my first option when I need a computer. I like talking to people and discussing options rather than grabbing it off a website. Micro Center has an informed sales staff, a lot of inventory and competitive prices for everything you may need, including phones! My suggestion is stop on by, you won't regret it but be guarded you might buy more than you thought! Be strong Daniel-son!

You can buy, sell, and trade electronics of all kinds here. They are a small business and fairly…read morenew to the KC area. And I highly recommend them if you have items that may be recyclable. They are also one of the very few places left where you can take a wide variety of electronics, cords, cables, outdated phone systems, discs, and other computer and electronic components/items to have them responsibly recycled, at no cost. Their techs are very helpful, and will let you know if something you bring in to recycle could make you a reasonable amount if you wanted to resell it, or for some items, pay you.

They wanted to test unit (offered to leave it so they could fully test). They connected a small speaker to ONE channel without any input! When that didn't work they tried a larger gauge speaker wire! They did finally try the sound output from their desktop terminal to no avail and offered $30 as untested! No problem, my real concern is what they may be trying to sell? IMHO you're better off going to a pawn shop for a more accurate assessment. Let the buyer beware.
