Good but could be better

For now I'm mostly using the Netflix app with this product. That app does not support closed captioning. This will be the reason that I return this product to the store if this problem isn't fixed very soon.
I like the way that the sound system type (2.1, 5.1, 7.1, etc) is set up graphically in the menu. There is a bug there though that causes my settings to be reset. I can't remember the specifics.
The sound is great.
If you have several devices that need to be connected together, and you already have the proper speakers or know what speakers to get, then this is a good product to buy. Else buy your Home Theater System with speakers and a blu-ray player separately.

Pros: Lightweight, lots of input connectors
Cons: Did not meet expectations, no closed captioning with netflix app, no qwerty type remote
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great, but not Awesome!

I had my receiver for about a month now. It's been great. The 3d blue ray incorporated into a receiver is one of kind. The design should of been improved a little bit more. Samsung stayed with black which is a typical. I would have done the chrome and added feature such as doc for Samsung Galaxy phone and a doc for the tablet. Otherwise its a great all in one receiver. Sound is also great but not amazing.
Pros: all in one receiver
Cons: color and design very typical
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great all-around AV receiver

This unit has great features and really makes my UN55 es 7100 sing. I had it previously hooked up to my Samsung 46" LCD set andsome of the features wouldnt work with it.
Now I can really see the interaction of the anynet and the BD wise the way they were intended to work. But the surround sound worked well with both of them and even though I have it set-up in my man cave in the basement, my wife would call down from 2 stories up and tell me to turn it down.

Pros: easy menu driven setup
Cons: calibration doesnt work

Problem Prone

I have had the unit a little over 2 years now and it will not stay working for longer that 8-10 months with minimal use. I have already had the entire main board replaced for a total failure and am about to have to have it done a second time for a similar issue. I own many Samsung items and usually recommend samsung to anyone who is looking, but i would not recommend this product to anyone due to although its cost is high, it continues to break repeatably.
Cons: Poor quality, Did not meet expectations, not durrable, does not support many apps
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
