Really glad the great staff at BB was able to guide me to the right cables! I bought the 4K TV and added the 4K DVD player. Of course the HDMI cable needs to be long enough to get from the unit to the TV!!!
This cable makes the data transfer with minimal loss. It does what it takes.

Definite Bose quality sound. Durability so so.
on June 7, 2017
Posted by: Mike34

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased these wired Bose in ear buds for a long trip from Honolulu to the Continental US, and didn't want to purchase a portable power source, or have to stop my sounds. The trip included 14 hours of flying and 18 hours of driving.
The in ear sound quality was as expected. Lows were deep and rich, highs were crisp and even spoken voice was clear. If I were in a quiet library or home setting it would have been perfect. I chose Sound Sport expecting durability to stand up to Sport use, adequate noise reduction to play clearly in an outdoor or active setting.
The built in clip was helpful and necessary because the thin fiberlike wires for connection really appeared ready to tear at the slightest twist. I could only imagine being jogging and have my device slip and pull on the wire wreaking havoc internally. While groggily flying I constantly worried that I would doze off, flinch and have similar wire disasters.
Now I know that for airplane noise I should have gone with Quiet Comfort buds. The Sound Sport really allowed outside sounds (airplane cabin and even road noise in the bus) to permeate the listening experience. (Maybe this is a safety feature)
I have moved to a pair of Sennheiser for my next trip. The cables are rugged and reinforced, and the sounds quality is the same high level I am accustomed to. While not "noise reduction" buds, the design allows the bud itself to act as a buffer to outside noise. At the same price point as Sound Sport, I have decided to give them a try.
Bose, without question, my home equipment is yours.

Stamina Great - Speed not so much
on May 29, 2017
Posted by: Mike34
from Honolulu
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased prior to heading on a 7 flight trip back and forth across the US. The stamina of the unit is great and I was able to charge 2 devices simultaneously. I discovered that doing so obviously slows the recharge so I chose to do 1 device at a time. I plugged in with 14% left. After three hours my device was at 36%, and finally after 9 hours it was 100%. I resorted to keeping the Tzumi plugged into my device, which is very heavy and unruly. Question to Best Buy/Tzumi - are there cables that will assist speed of charge? I thought the 3" cable that comes with the unit was specifically designed to make faster flow. Apparently not.

just the right volume!!!

We were looking for a replacement of our existing 5 cup maker, so right off this caught my eye! The programmable function really helped seal the deal. With only 4 cups, this maker really allows the flavors of the coffee to develop before the grounds become acidic, as they can when brewing 8, 10 or 12 cups. Also, brewing time is quick so if you need more, set the second pot!
We are really pleased with this machine!

Samsung UN55KU7000FXZA LED Smart 4K Ultra HD TV with HDR: Feel the drama of blacker blacks and brighter brights with striking crispness. With 4K UHD resolution you’ll enjoy picture with 4x the detail of Full HD. See the difference precise color and contrast can make – and a Smart TV experience that puts your favorite content at your fingertips.
Need more info about the stand. Is it not going to fit on a stand that is 34" wide? Have a 46" tv now and the base of the stand is 22" wide. So what it is sounding like is 9 more inches of screen requires 15 more inches of base. Can that be?
In order to allow stability the base foot must be wider than the unit. My stand (wheeled cabinet) is also 34" wide and the last 1.5" or so of the TV foot on each side sticks off the edge. We are having no problem with stability. If you have small children you may want to consider a larger stand or wall hanging.
