Great product at a great price

I went in to the store with the intent of buying a Monster surge protector to replace one that wasn't working properly. When I saw the price difference, I checked the specs on each. The Rocket Fish offered more surge protection and cost much less. It also has a better warranty/insurance for the attached equipment. Easy decision.

OK but nothing groundbreaking

I bought this just because it was something new from a legend. It's worth a listen but doesn't compare to his early works.

There were several Academy Award nominations for this movie but the real star is the story. This story should have been told long ago. Well done and quite believable.

Very entertaining and thought-provoking

I bought this movie because I had heard how great the visuals were. Yes they are but the story is a very intriguing mix of religion, philosophy and psychology. A refreshing departure from the typical Hollywood formula of extreme action and weak story.

Lots of action and a story line I could follow
on April 5, 2018
Posted by: Linus
from Table Rock Lake, MO
Verified Purchase:Yes
I hadn't read a review of this movie before buying it but had heard it had some great applications of HDR. I overall don't think CGIs show off HDR as much as real people and scenery. I thought that this movie would be more about the real history of the Great Wall and would have more natural images. Aside from that, the movie is entertaining and gave my surround system a workout. The story-line held my interest as well even if it wasn't what I expected.

Great addition for Hendrix fans

from Table Rock Lake, MO
Verified Purchase:Yes
Since buying this. I've read some unflattering reviews of this CD. I think it must be appreciated for what it is. It's a collection of never before released songs that give some insight into the development of some of his works. The recording quality is not very good on some of these songs but there are some jewels here.

Great action and special effects

Verified Purchase:Yes
If the story-line doesn't concern you as much as the action and special effects, you'll like this movie. Meshing Morgan Freeman's role with Scarlett Johanson's is a stretch. The plot s full of holes but the movie still keeps your attention. I guess that's all we can expect from most movies today.

Great action and a story with heart

Verified Purchase:Yes
This movie will likely start a franchise. It has all the elements of a classic Hollywood story line.and leaves room for follow-up. Great car chases, romance and good against evil. It needs to be seen on 4K with HDR to get the utmost in home theater experience.

If you like Gregg Allman, you'll love this album. If you are (somehow) not familiar with his work,this will make you want more of his extensive catalog of work. You need to hear this!

This was easy to set up and works as advertised. The owner's manual, although brief, is clear and easy to follow. It simply puts out the excellent picture you expect.

I have a pioneer elite audio receiver with pass through why would I need 2 HDMI ports ...1 for sound.
The second HDMI port is for receivers or processors that can't pass the 2.0 HDMI signal. The 2nd port is for sound for older receivers. It actually has a sticker over it so you are not tempted to use it as your primary output. You still need to use the 1st port to get the 4K signal to the TV even if you use the 2nd for sound to your receiver. Check to see if your Pioneer receive will pass 4K with HDR.

Immerse yourself in full-array contrast and full 4K HDMI with this Sony HDR Ultra TV. Five times dynamic range brings every bit of the action into sharp relief, whether you're gaming or streaming live events. This Sony HDR Ultra TV is compatible with PlayStation Vue for live streaming, and Google Play apps are available for even more fun.
I just read a review that the Sony 900E the HDR don't work when connected to a coaxial antenna is this true and they said the picture was terrible
Only at Best BuyThis Rocketfish™ RF-WSW312 wireless transmitter/receiver kit makes it easy to equip your home theater system with a wireless subwoofer (not included). Up to a 45' wireless range allows flexible speaker placement.
Intermitent outage
I am a Best Buy manager and have a customer with this kit. He complains that while watching a movie the red light will come on showing no connection and he does not get the base sounds. Once he turns it off and back on then it will work again for a while before losing connection again. Some one has told him the light is only green when base is being transmitted and it is working fine. Can you verify this for me either way?
If he is still getting sound from his subwoofer, it has not disconnected. If he is not getting sound from his subwoofer, it has disconnected.If it is truly disconnecting, he may need to re-examine the way he is hooked up. He should not use a Y-connector if his subwoofer does not have an LFE input. Only use right or left input; using both makes the subwoofer see 2 inputs and sum them (double them). This in turn will make you set the level at the receiver low enough that the transmitter will intermittently loose it. Also, the level setting at the subwoofer should be set at the mid-level at the start of the set-up. Setting it at max could also cause the LFE output at the receiver to be set too low.

Can you use a subwoofer Y Cable with this?
Can you hook up a Y Cable (1female 2 male) to the cable going into the subwoofer and hook it to your L and R inputs on the subwoofer?
