Great price!

I needed to upgrade a couple of HDMI cables to support HDMI 2.2. Was a little apprehensive on getting these due to the low cost but was pleasantly surprised. They did the trick for me. Ended up getting a few more and updating all my HDMI cables.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I have this remote installed on my living room TV, and another on my Home Theater system. I purchased this particular one for my bedroom to control my cable box (Comcast), TV and Roku. Both me and my nightstand love it. No more fumbling around with 3 separate remotes. Works flawlessly and seamlessly,

Perfect for laptops.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I always hated the fact that conventional thumb drives had to be removed from my laptop in order to fit in the case. Not with this one. It sits flush with the USB port. I always used SanDisk drives because of their reliability, so this was a no brainer. USB3 performance is outstanding!

I love the size of this Thumb Drive
on August 5, 2017
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I picked this up because of the physical size of the drive. I always hated the fact that I had to unplug the conventional thumb drive I was using to fit my MacBook Pro in the case. Now I can leave it plugged in all the time. Performance is very good when using it in a USB3 port.

Best way to add LiveTV to Plex
on August 5, 2017
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this to add Live TV capability to my Plex Server. Worked like a champ. Now I can watch all my Over The Air programming (50+ channels in the Boston area) right from my AppleTV (coming soon for Roku). Note that PlexPass is required to add LiveTV to Plex. Installation was a breeze. Pretty much plug and play.

Nice self powered speakers for my laptop
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for a simple small set of speakers for my laptop computer. These do the trick quite well. Surprisingly good sound given the size. I like the fact that they are powered via USB, so I can use them without having to plug them into an AC power source. Can't beat them for the price.

Great drive for backups
on October 29, 2016
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this drive to store backups. Split the drive into two partitions; one for Flashback (Time Machine for Windows) and the other partition for Acronis (daily backups). Both software packages work flawlessly with this drive. USB3 connection makes it pretty snappy. Basically, set it and forget it.

Great Upgrade for 4K SUHD
on October 1, 2016
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased the Roku 4 as an upgrade from my Roku 3 so I could get upscale capability for my new 4K TV. It works great! Direct connected it to the HDMI port on the TV, and all my saved 720P and 1080P content get up-scaled to 4K. In addition, native 4K programming from the various streaming services look phenomenal. If you are a Roku fan, the Roku 4 is a must have if you have a 4K TV.

Great product, easy installation!
on September 9, 2016
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had recently purchased a Samsung 55 inch curved UHD set (from Best buy), and later decided to hang it on the wall. I visited the store and spoke to one of the sales associates that recommended the Sanus because he had gotten good reports from other customers that had used it for curved screens. I took his advise, and am totally delighted with it. The instructions were dead on, and the included mounting template made the installation very simple. There is absolutely no sag with the tilting mechanism. Set it and forget it. I highly recommend this for anyone mounting a curved screen set (although if would work just as good for a conventional flat screen).

Great in an airplane.
on September 3, 2016
Posted by: k1bfd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this headset to replace an old noise cancelling set I had for 5 years. I primarily use them when I am flying connected to my iPhone to listen to audiobooks or music from my iTunes library, or my Macbook Pro to watch movies. The noise cancelling completely cancels out the hum of the jet engines and the crying babies around me. Although I have never used them for the in-flight entertainment, it does come with the special audio jack adapter to connect it to the aircraft's audio jack. It obviously doesn't compare the $500.00 studio headphones in regards to audio quality, but is great for what I am using it for.

whats the diference from roku3 &roku4

Probably the biggest difference is the 4 supports 4K and will upscale 720P and 1080P content to 4K SUHD. The 3 will not. Big difference on my Samsung TV. They also improved the remote control a bit. I purchased the 4 to replace a 3 I had for the up-scaling capability.

What is the exact distance between the back of the LED TV and the face of the wall? When no tilt being used.

3 Inches.

1. Does this bracket allow a swivel motion in addition to the tilt? 2. Does this bracket come with all mounting hardware? That is, bracket to wall and bracket to a Samsung 55" Smart HDTV?

1. This bracket is not a fully articulating bracket, so it doesn't have swivel, just tilt. I didn't need the swivel as the room it's in is only 12 X 12
2. Yes, it has everything you need to attach to the wall AND attach the Samsung 55 to it. I have the Samsung 55 inch UHD with a curved screen, and it works great!

HOW exactly does "noise cancelling" work? I didn't realized batteries were needed. I'm looking for something that can block a tv set continuously playing in my workplace. So you have to have them plugged in to something and put a battery in it?

OK, kind of a technical answer but basically, noise-cancelling headphones use a miniature microphone in the earpiece that picks up ambient noise (such as traffic, air-handling systems, etc.). Noise-canceling circuitry in the ear piece create a noise-cancelling wave that is 180° out of phase with the ambient noise. This circuitry is why you need the battery.
If you switch off the noise cancelling (or the battery goes dead), they still work like regular headphones.

Does this headphone cancel out the hum of the engines on a plane?

It sure does. I use them all the time when I am flying. As soon as you turn on the noise cancelling feature, you notice a dramatic difference. No more jet hum.

Feel the beat with these Sony EXTRA BASS Bluetooth headphones. With Bass Booster technology, these headphones are tailored for dance music. They feature an acoustically tight seal for sound isolation. These EXTRA BASS Bluetooth headphones support wireless connectivity with Bluetooth and NFC one-touch listening and let you to listen to up to 30 hours of music before recharging the batteries.
 

Will this work with a MacBook Pro OS X El Capitan?

Sure can. That is exactly what I am using mine for. I have used them on both my MB Pro's (one with El Capitan and the other with Yosemite)
