Very enjoyable/Liked the 4K
on July 23, 2017
Posted by: BahamaJoe

Verified Purchase:Yes
This blu/4K is a loosely based re-make of the Magnificent Seven classic 60's film which in turn was based on Akira Kurosawa's 1956 masterpiece "Seven Samurai". The new Magnificent Seven has great bones and frankly I liked it for it's humor, action and great modern cast. The 4K version is a worthy format to view this western epic film. The color saturation and HDR effects were most in evidence during exterior landscape views and especially in action scenes in the last half of the movie. I highly recommend seeing the movie in 4K.

OK blu ray player though not perfect
on July 8, 2017
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from Florida
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have used this player for over a month now with ok results so far. It plays up to 1080p blu rays and the picture quality is sharp with decent color saturation. I have streamed netflix and amzon prime content and have not experienced any download delays or dropped signal issues. Though I must confess that the blu ray is located close to my WIFI router where the signal is strong. My main issue with this player is that the app suite it comes with is limited in sports related content. There is no MLB app for instance. Also, the remote cannot open/close the disc tray. Has to be done manually. As others have also mentioned, there is no on/off light to show the player is on. But for the person who is only looking for a basic player at a reasonable price this player will satisfy most needs. Unfortunately, the lack of sufficient sports apps was a deal killer for me.

Very sturdy console with great swivel mount
on June 24, 2017
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from Florida
Verified Purchase:Yes
I had my 4 year old 65 inch HDTV mounted on this console and the swivel feature was important so I could view the screen from my desk without difficulty. The installation was quick and expertly done by the Magnolia folks so no complaints there. This stand is very nice looking and very sturdy. The tempered glass is supported by strong aluminum and hard wood joints and the rear joint that supports the TV has openings to facilitate cable management. There is plenty of room on the stand for a sound bar and or receiver, blu ray player, cable box and other devices. This furniture piece is large so it would look best in an open area of your house, den or an apartment living room. The only bad thing I can see about it is that the tempered glass collects dust so it has to be wiped on occasion. Another factor worth considering is that the swivel does not have a tilt feature. Neither of these was a deal breaker for me and I am quite happy with this console.

Good sound system for apartment or bedroom
on June 24, 2017
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from Florida
Verified Purchase:Yes
Very sleek looking sound bar. Wireless connection to subwoofer works very well allowing you to position the subwoofer elsewhere in the room. I bought this system for an office study with high ceilings and found that the sound was clear and great for TV and music play but found the subwoofer a tad underpowered during blu ray action movie play as compared to my previous 5.1 channel home theater system. You can up the volume of the subwoofer up to it's max.during set-up through the handy sound bar remote menu which I would definitely recommend. Another option for this system is to get the two rear speakers for an additional $100 . If you are buying this product for an apartment or medium to large bedroom or small den I believe it will be great and the sound bar would look very sleek mounted on the wall underneath your 40 to 55 inch flat screen TV..

My Favorite 2017 Blu ray
on March 17, 2017
Posted by: BahamaJoe
from Florida
Verified Purchase:Yes
In my opinion the best movie in 2016 . The blu ray treatment is definitely first rate. The war action scenes reminded me of some of the best in Private Ryan. Very realistic visuals and impressive audio. This is a blu ray worth collecting and watching again and again. The story line and acting in this biopic is engaging and the characters are worthy of your attention.

Garage Soul Band Makes Good in Ireland
on December 2, 2016
Posted by: BahamaJoe

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very enjoyable blu about the forming of a band in Dublin dedicated to soul/ rock classics. The script which is largely true and based on real characters is very humorous and the music is great too. Audio DTS-HD 5.1 delivers and the video was very clear with no issues. It is an Alan Parker directed film who also did musical films e.g. Fame and Pink Floyd the Wall. I highly recommend this one. People who like R&R will love it too.

Perfect for Narrow Space

My Keurig is a 1.0 so the more narrow Keurig carousel is just what I needed for my coffee niche in my kitchen. It works great and looks fine and I got it at a discounted price. What is not to like.

Boosted my in-home WIFI /Easy set up

Verified Purchase:Yes
This product solved a problem in my home. My router is located far from my HDTV and it affected my ability to stream Netflix and Amazon prime content. It took me just a few minutes to plug in the range extender and synch it with my router and HDTV and presto I got a better WIFI signal immediately with no more streaming problems to date. I just followed the easy set up instructions.

Enjoyable Bond Blu ray. Keeps your interest from start to finish though plot line thins slightly towards the end. Liked the action sequences and cinematography throughout. A worthy effort though perhaps not Skyfall great . Recommended.

I liked the first two movies of the Trilogy so I just had to get the last one too. Even though the movies vary considerably from the book I enjoyed watching this blu-ray very much and found it entertaining. Buy it with confidence.

What is the width of this soundbar? Am looking to pair w/ 40" Samsung and don't want this wider than the TV.

The width is 39 3/4 inches . The depth is 3 1/2 inches and the height is 2 inches.
