Verified Purchase:Yes
This router does everything a Gigabyte router should, but if you are distributing from two ends of the house, remember that your ISP's router is most likely a slower 10/100 unit. Don't use that ISP router to distribute BETWEEN other computers in your network. That'll slow everything to 10/100. Instead feed only one cable from the ISP router into this Gigabyte router and then run everything else through this router. That will allow everything with Gigabyte capability to communicate at that higher speed.

Enjoy crisp 4K images and dazzling color on this Sony HDR Ultra TV, featuring a wide 75-inch screen that's ideal for home theaters. Full-array local dimming and boosting ensures a clear picture, and hidden cable routing makes for a seamless setup. This Sony HDR Ultra TV is compatible with PlayStation Vue to eliminate your cable bill.
How is the volume on this model and the 850E? Do you have to keep volume at high level to enjoy sound or is sound quality very good? Do you need a sound bar to get good sound quality for these tvs ?
I only have a 900E, so I can't speak for the 850E. You question prompted me to turn the TV's built in speakers for the first time. In a 20' x 20' living room open to the dining room and kitchen, the volume was more than loud enough at 75%. The quality is "adequate" concentrated mostly in the mid range. However, to match the impact of the 4K HDR picture this TV is capable of, even a sound bar is a weak match. I highly recommend an A/V receiver pushing 5.2 Surround Sound through speakers backed up by 10" - 12" sub-woofers. THEN the sounds will match the impact of the excellent picture quality.

Does this receiver feature HDR pass thru (2.0a)?
It supports HDR10 4K 60p 4:4:4, 4:2:2 or 4K 60p 4:2:0 10 bit video signal, will but you MUST go deep into the setting menu to do it since unfortunately it defaults to only 2K pass through out of the box. To see the steps required, go to page 152 of the Denon Owner's Manual PDF for this model.

This Klipsch Reference R-12SW subwoofer features a 12" spun-copper IMG (injection-molded graphite) woofer and built-in digital amplifier, so you can easily add robust bass to your existing audio setup.
What is the height dimension for this sub? It doesn't seem to be listed in the specs. Thanks.
The top of the Klipsch Reference R-12SW subwoofer sits 16 5/8" off of a hard floor.

How does this sub match with Paradigm Monitor 9 V.5 towers?
It's not clear if you mean matching the "look" of your Paradigm Towers or the "sound". I'll address sound. Unlike all of the other speakers in your 5.1 or 7.1 surround system, the sub-woofer operates in a completely different part of the frequency spectrum. It's often a good idea to match the "Timbre" of your Front L-R, Rear L-R and Center speakers since they are reacting to generally the same frequencies at each moment. However, the sub-woofer is thumping away in its own world so to speak, so it won't be overpowering or understating anything the other speakers are producing. I'm very impressed and happy with my Klipsch Reference R-12SW subwoofer even though none of the other speakers or components in my home theater are from Klipsch.

Access HD cable TV programs on devices throughout your home with this SiliconDust HDHomeRun PRIME CableCARD. It lets you watch up to three different cable TV shows at once on smartphones, computers or tablets. This SiliconDust HDHomeRun PRIME CableCARD works with your internet connection, saving you the expense of extra cable boxes.
can I watch Israeli tv with your product
Keep in mind that this three tuner unit is only a replacement for every set-top box that the cable company rents to you (one for each TV) for about $15-$25 per month each. The rental price depends on whether or not the cable company's rental box can record (DVR) the shows. With this unit you can rent just a Cable-Card from the cable company which usually costs about $3-$5 per month. Optionally you can subscribe to HDHomeRun's channel guide for about $60 per year. Once you install it and the free software, every Windows 10, Android or iOS device connected to your home network either wired (via Ethernet cable) or wirelessly can receive the live (or recorded on one of the PCs) shows. This device will pay for itself in a few months. IF your cable company offers Israeli TV on the package you subscribe to, this device is capable of recording it and showing it on all of your network devices. HDHomeRun offers another less expensive version that hooks up to an external antennae and allows you to view and record all of the broadcast TV in your location.

Looking for a DVR for Daughter her student housing has cable but there is no box it comes though coax cable direct, no guide , no way to get cable card as its not needed to watch would this still work?
It depends on the content coming through the coax cable. Remember that the purpose of the HDHomeRun Prime is to decrypt (unscramble) signals that the cable company has scrambled to force you to pay for upper tiers. If the signal coming out of that coax is just digital basic cable (not scrambled) then you do not need a decoder like this. Your TV will be able to display the basic channels all by itself. The "Cable Card" that inserts into the HDHomeRun tuner is not free. You have to rent it from the cable company and they have to activate it from their head-end. My Cable Company Frontier Fios charges $8 per monthto rent and activate the card. That's much less than renting their cable Set-Top Box which often goes for $15-$20 per month depending on whether it can record or not. I'd try just hooking up a standard digital TV to the cable in your daughter's dorm first to see if you need or can use the more sophisticated HDHomeRun. I suggest going to the www.silicondust.com website to see how it all works.

Count on high-speed storage performance with this 120GB PNY solid-state drive. Its 515MB/sec. read and 490MB/sec. write speeds let you multitask efficiently, and it's up to 30x more robust than hard drives, ensuring durability and data protection.
Is there a software utility included to copy my existing HDD to this? I have a Windows XP Dell system, dual processor 2 GB memory.
Once you have this NAS up and running on your network, transferring files to it from a HD inside your PC is as simple as transferring files from one drive to another if both drives were still inside your PC. However, you cannot simply put your PC's hard drive into a NAS an expect to begin reading and using the files that were written onto that disk while inside your PC. The first step in using a hard drive in a NAS is to format it (along with a matching one) to pair them as a RAID. This process is just like any formatting. It erases everything from the drive.

Since Netflix is ONLY on the Internet, you cannot use this device to watch Netflix without an internet connection. The HDHomeRun Prime is for watching and recording Encrypted TV Channels from your Cable Company without having to rent the Cable Company's Set-top boxes for each TV. It also allows you to watch those live or recorded cable channels on any Windows 10 PC, Xbox One, Android phone or tablet or Apple phone, PC or tablet on your home's wired or wireless network.

This APC Back-UPS BE750G UPS protects your computer system and keeps it running for up to 70 minutes in the event of a power failure.
Other than computer usage
I am looking for a backup power supply for my CPAP machine. I need this for breathing when asleep. When I lose power in the middle of the night, I can't breathe. What I need to know is will this work without using the software? I have no need for the software function, but need a longer lasting backup like this for my medical equipment.
Yes, this unit will switch to outputting battery supplied power in a fraction of a second if the AC power into it is interrupted. The USB connection to the computer is only to provide a way to communicate with an App that shows a history of 120 volt AC power interruptions and how the UPS responded to the event. It's nice to have that information but it's not necessary.
