Great Quality Speakers
on March 27, 2017
Posted by: cody1
from Texas
I got these speakers installed on my front doors of a 2006 Honda Accord. I also purchased the GX963 speakers for my rear deck. These speakers made a major difference from the premium stock speakers they replaced. I did not replace anything else in the vehicle. It is important to note that my vehicle did have a stock external amp that powers all the speakers, so this has more power than non-premium audio vehicles. If you are wanting to upgrade to these speakers, make sure you have sufficient power to do so. These speakers run at 2.3 ohms (NOT the common 4 ohm load that other manufacturers use). I now have a lot more bass and the highs are more clear with no distortion at high volume. In fact, I feel a subwoofer would be overkill in this setup. I would also like to mention that Best Buy carries all the common sizes for the JBL GX series. If you mix sizes, as I have (6x9s with 6.5"), they compliment each other very well. JBL is part of Harman Audio. With that, there is also an Infinity line of speakers. Though they are marketed as the "higher-end" brand, I do not feel that there is a major difference in quality, especially for the price. I got these installed at Geek Squad, and they did an excellent job. Though the website has no mention of bundle pricing, if you purchase speakers and installation at the same time, you will save money. I ended up saving about 25% from the original bill. There is no real way of telling how much you will save until everything is totaled out. Overall, I would recommend these speakers over all the other brands that Best Buy sells.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The 120Hz refresh rate ensures smooth display, even during complex action scenes, and the 2160p resolution lets you see the smallest details. Multiple ports make it easy to connect gaming systems and media players to this Samsung 40-inch 4K Smart TV.

Excellent 4K Monitor
on October 30, 2016
Posted by: cody1
from Texas
I purchased this television today due to the excellent price. I was going to wait until Black Friday, but I decided to pull the trigger. Best Buy honors a price match guarantee for the duration of the return period, so if it gets cheaper, I will get refunded (just keep the receipt). Note: They will NOT price match on Black Friday. I can verify that this TV runs at 4K (3840x2160) with 4:4:4 chroma at 60 Hz. I have it plugged into HDMI 1 (though all ports should support this), and I turned on UHD color within the Samsung's menu. It looks excellent! The KU6290 is extremely similar to the KU6300. This is the Black Friday derivative model. It does not have bluetooth support (like the 6300), and it is included with a cheaper remote. My panel version is FB02, which is a Samsung panel. There is a 55" and a 65" model of this television as well, but I believe there are multiple panel variants at these sizes.

Great Subwoofer!
on February 27, 2015
Posted by: cody1
from Texas
I purchased this subwoofer as an open item at my local Best Buy. It is extremely difficult to find higher end audio equipment from Definitive Technology used. After some research, I originally narrowed my options to SVS, HSU, and some lower end Definitive Technology subwoofers (particularly the Powerfield 312 -$199-299 and the Pro Sub 800/1000). My budget was below $600. After emailing Definitive Technology, they pushed me towards the Supercube 2000. Space was not an issue at all (I could have easily fit an 18" subwoofer if I wanted to). I will admit, I was extremely skeptical about the performance specs. I did not think that a 7-1/2" subwoofer with 2 7-1/2" radiators would be able to outperform my Yamaha YST-SW216, or a 12" subwoofer. But, I was definitely wrong! This sub has extremely tight bass, and can get extremely loud/and low if needed. I also liked that it did not distort once, no matter what I threw at it. One of the recent demos I tried, was the Dolby Atmos Amaze Trailer (which is now on Vudu). On the Powerful Bass scene, it got LOW! Now, I did not put the volume knob all the way up...half way was already too loud for me. It complements my Definitive Technology BP8s extremely well.
The Yamaha performed extremely well if it is placed in a corner, and if your listening position is right against a wall on the opposite side. Once I moved, the listening position had to moved towards the middle of the room. The dispersion of this subwoofer was MUCH wider, allowing me to have several more "sweet spots" which I also appreciated.

Great TV over 60"

This television is Best Buy's exclusive model for this Black Friday. I also purchased Best Buy's drop in model last year (UN55EH6001), which is an excellent set as well. The TV does not have audio output...you would need to hook up directly to a stereo for external speakers...I have a stereo with HDMI in/outputs to address this issue. If you want an excellent deal with audio outputs, get the UN65EH6000 for $1099 (I posted it in RELATED PRODUCTS). Basically the same model, but has a audio output option.
What's great about it: Price, 120 HZ

I did not purchase the Geek Squad protection. They do provide excellent customer service, and they provide pain-free service if it is ever needed. If you ever have problems, they will fix or replace your product, no questions asked. I am going to simply rely on the 1 year warranty.

I am using this product solely as a 4K computer monitor. However, there is plenty of 4k content right now. Most of these services are Internet based (ie: Netflix, Amazon, Youtube, etc.) but there are shows, movies, etc. in full 4K. There are also 4K blue-rays available at this time (which requires a new 4K Blueray player). Last, there are 4K gaming consoles available (the Playstation Pro and Xbox One S* with Project Scorpio hitting shelves soon) *Up-converts games to 4K (but has streaming services in 4K).

Is this model a "special model" built only for the Black Friday deal? This model number only appears under Best Buy.
Yes, do not let that bother you, I purchased the UN55EH6001 (Best Buy's last year) and have had no issues whatsoever. Best Buy does this to compete with other major retailers...no one else can sell this model.

audio out between this and the Samsung UN65EH6000
So you wrote this has no audio out, but the Samsung UN65EH6000 does. What other differences are there between the two models? How will I connect my cable/blu ray player into my receiver and with this TV?
Nothing really, You would have to hook up cable/blu ray through toslink or HDMI, then hook up to the TV

Does this tv have built in speakers?
I'm a little confused by the specs and overview; Does this tv have built in speakers so I can just plug in an xbox and the sound will play, or do I have to go out and buy speakers to get sound from this tv?

so you cannot hook up external speakers or a sound bar to this tiv?
You can, not directly from the TV...most devices now can hook up directly to the sound bar/speakers, while displaying to the TV

Whats the difference between this model and the UN65EH6000FXZA?
The UN65EH6000 is last years model. The UN65FH6001 is Best Buy's model. The UN65EH6000 has audio output, while this model does not. It is also $100 more this Black Friday.

Is the screen glossy or matte finished?
I have a large window to one side of the room this would be going in so I need a matte screen to keep glare to a minimum. I looked but was unable to see the information I need anywhere, thanks for any help!
I believe it is more glossy...All of the SAMSUNG UN**FH**** thus far have moved to the glossy screens.

Inputs/Outputs
I was wondering if there was an audio input on this tv so I can hook my surround sound up to it?
I believe you are talking about audio output. This TV does not have any audio outputs. Many products will have separate audio outputs...so hooking up to a stereo through the device you are trying to use may be a solution...most modern stereos also have HDMI input/output so you can hook the device to a stereo, then hook up from the stereo to the TV.
