Philips Ambx

The ambx lighting is a great idea and enhances video game play, movie lighting and ambiance superbly. The only drawback is this thing is very cheaply produced, it's made of thin plastic. I would have been completely disappointed had I bought it when it was uber expensive. I've had the product about three months now and the middle washer has started to flicker between color shifts with the ambx illuminate program running. Ambx forum users have been seeing this and have been instructed to return them to the retailer as it's defective hardware. All together, I'd recommend purchasing it for $40. Just don't run the illuminate program with it. You'll save on it burning out sooner.
