Great Family Movie
on January 6, 2017
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
Keeping it real, the storyline is the same basic concept as Finding Nemo. That said, Pixar did a great job at making this movie a blast and filled with family fun and humor. The video quality itself is gorgeous!

Get straight to the front lines with Battlefield 1. World War I was the first truly global conflict, and you'll experience life in the trenches, in early urban combat, and in the basic biplanes and tanks of the day. Follow the single-player campaign, or battle up to 64 players on the Battlefield 1 multiplayer servers.

Great Example of HDR and Atmos
on November 21, 2016
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
Movie itself is entertaining, but wow, if you have a quality ATMOS surround sound, this movie rocks! The visual quality is exceptional as well on a 4k set with HDR. This movie is definitely a reference piece I show off my system with, and again, it is a fun movie to boot if you are into sci fi.

Similar to Marvel, but Enough Variation

To me the games seems too similar to the Lego Marvel version to justify the price, but everyone loves it in the house, so works for me lol.

Good Game

Good rpg/first shooter, reminds me a lot of Knights of the Old Republic. Good story lines, enough side quests to keep you in the game for awhile, and a good enough user base to support multiplayer fps if that is your deal.

Reference Material Movie for HDR and 7.1
on October 10, 2016
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
First of all, this is a great movie. Nearly everyone loves it unless someone constantly getting beat down aggravates you.
More importantly, this movie makes for a great reference movie for showcasing your 4K HDR TV and/or 7.1 surround system.
Sound: Opening scene along the creek, sounds like you are in the creek... so good!
Picture: Highlights and reflections are brighter, darks are deeper, and wider color gamut really brought out the richer deep greens and reds. The scene in the boat is a great example. On the bul-ray, you dont get the deep green rich tones as well and the red hair of the captain is not as prominent

Much Potential but with Quality Issues
on October 10, 2016
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
I wanted to love this TV... hits that sweet spot of best bank for the buck except the light bleed along the bottom of the screen was just too much. I tired 2 sets and gave up - did not want to play the panel lottery.
Pros: Awesome colors, vibrant bright LEDs really make colors pop. Very respectful blacks for an edge lit TV. Design looks great and the Tinzen OS works well
Cons: Great blacks for edge lit, but still not as good compared to OLED or backlit LED screens. Biggest issue was light bleed along the bottom. Every in-store display (checked 5) had no issues whatsoever. Was I unlikely to get 2 in a row? Perhaps, but at this price you should know what you get.
Get that light bleed under control and this set is a 5 star

Low Profile Mount with All Screw Sizes
on October 10, 2016
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
The newer Samsun UHD TVs need ~42-45mm bolts to work with a mount, a length many mounts do not include nor does Samsung w/ their TV - thanks cheap Samsung!
Luckily this quality mount does. Overall great mount. Low profile, easy to tilt... good stuff

Best UHD Player To Date
on October 10, 2016
Posted by: Stryprod
Verified Purchase:Yes
There is always something better coming around the corner, but for right now and the past year, this was the UHD player to get. Works. Simple enough. Downsides would be the lame curve look and the movies load fast enough, but lets get it blindly fast. Menu screen a little lacking in the looks department - too utilitarian/ industrial in appearance.

Is the Fitbit suppose to track steps when your just moving your arm? I was sitting not walking doing my hair and makeup and it was racking up the steps so every time I moved my arm it basically saying I was walking and I'm not ..... this is not accurate

I've had that happen here and there as well, but it is rare. I think at the end of the day you have to accept it is not going to be 100% accurate, but so long as it is pretty close and motivates you to move more, than mission accomplished :)

A friend of mine bought one from your company and says that in 2 years it can be upgraded at no cost.

Sounds to good to be true. Looked online and I dont see any info on an upgrade program.

Meet the Nest Cam Outdoor security camera. It stands watch 24/7, rain or shine. Plugs into power so you never have to worry about dead batteries. And sends an alert to your phone when it detects activity. It even lets you talk back through the Nest app. This is what an outdoor security camera should be.
 

I need to install a video camera in a doctors office so the receptionist can monitor people entering the building. Will she be able to reduce the video picture on her PC so she can work on the computer and watch the video at the same time?

Sure, just open the video in another browser tab or window and size it to what you want.

Will this work to record license plates day and night on my one access road? Need a simple system that will be monitored only if a negative event occurs, Have electric source but ? wi-fi.

Too many unknowns to even answer your question. The detail of a fast moving car from any distance, and especially at night, would be difficult for most cams. Don't get me wrong, this is a great cam with great detail, but you'd likely need to look at a top of the line professional system.

I want to use this for a business which is 20 miles from my home. The business uses a different wifi than I have at home. What is the range and do I have to be hooked to the same network?

You only have to be on the same network for initial setup, after that you can remotely view from anywhere in the world assuming you have an internet connection. I can view my home camera from work, from my parents, a friends house, anywhere.

I'm trying to understand the subscription part of this. If you don't get a subscription, what do you get? Just real-time alerts, video feed and two-way communication to your phone but no recording?

Yes, and you also get 3 hours of cloud recording.

4 Ohm Speakers

I have a set of Martin Logan Motion series surround speakers, so all 4 ohm. Will the receiver work with that impedance?
Yes it will, but you must change the settings as follows

Carry out the following settings when using a speaker with an impedance of 4 – 6 Ω/ohms. 1. Press and hold the main unit’s ZONE2 SOURCE and STATUS at the same time for at least 3 seconds. “V.Format:< NTSC>” appears on the display. 2. Press DIMMER on the main unit twice. “Sp.Imp.:<8ohms>” appears on the display. 3. Press TUNER PRESET CH + or TUNER PRESET CH - on the main unit to select the impedance. 6ohms: Select when the impedance for any of the connected speakers is 6 Ω/ohms. 4ohms: Select when the impedance for any of the connected speakers is 4 Ω/ohms. 4. Press the main unit’s STATUS to complete the setting.

Only @ Best BuyEasily connect most analog stereo audio components using this Insignia™ NS-HZ502 cable that delivers analog stereo audio signals through RCA jacks and features a 20' length to ensure flexible placement options.
 

connecting speakers

Is there an adapter for connecting r/w cables to stereo that takes only wire clips for speakers?
Not sure what you mean by "wire clips" but you can pretty much do anything you want with wire. You just strip the ends and add whatever adapter you need. Try searching online for videos on stripping speaker wire and adding banana plugs. Might not be the type of plug/adapter you need, but it'll give you an idea of how to do it. Good luck.
