Great Features and price but sound is fuzzy.

I was looking for a portable cd player with good quality sound, so I could play my compositions for various small audiences. The Sony PA/DJ unit is a knockout for price and amazing variety of features, but it is not so good on quality of vocal sound. Music plays well and the available mods are handy if you want some kind of distortion, and the bass and volume are adequate, but voices such as radio commentary or non-professional speech are quite difficult to make out. The compression and noise in the sound of voices is distracting on radio play and on cd play. I have not tried the MP3 much, but it is not better. I am happy this unit will do my project somewhat, but I wanted more quality. However, if your goal is to provide DJ for a small party, this is just the ticket! Now, where can I find what I was really looking for? Oh, yeah, I have no trouble lugging this, but some people might not find it so easy. It has a grab niche, but only one, so it can't be grabbed on two sides with two hands.

I am really pleased to have this beautiful film in such great color and resolution. I saw it in theatres as a child and remembered it fondly, but I appreciate it more now. Yeah, the smoking is awful and the bad kids are too bad, but Who can resist such a pretty and innocent fairy? I love this film for what it is and not for what film should be now. It is still fun!

All the little girls who are in love with this movie could not convince me to see it, but after a long time, I wanted to know if it was as good as they indicated. I was impressed by the graphics and 3d animation, but I was more than impressed with the trick story line, not your run-of-the-mill gaga romance. Oh, yes, there is sappy in the scene and the hopelessly cliche snowman, but really, the script and songs flowed well and the imagery was more abstract than I am used to seeing in a Disney flic. It does not warm my heart as the old D style did when I was young, but it is not gag-me sappy. So I give this a five, perhaps because I was pleasantly surprised that all the little girls were right.

This collection includes all 8 films from the Harry Potter saga. Based on the novels of J.K. Rowling, the films follow Harry (Daniel Radcliff) as he learns about his magical heritage, and the pivotal role he plays within the wizard community. Along the way, he forms indelible bonds with classmates Ron Weasely (Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger (Emma Watson), who help him as he tries to defeat the evil wizard Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes).

It is a joy to have all this series in one format. There are additional cuts and information on disc, the subtitles are excellent, and the interviews and comments and technical demonstrations are superb. I want to know more, but there is much left to explore in this set. Well done!

There are lots of outlet strips available. This one is attractive and has good plug spacing for the many wall wart plugs I have. The cord is long enough and the little green 'on' light is not too bright. There are too many glaring led lights already in my space.

Beautiful and entertaining movie.

I really enjoyed this movie. However, I am unhappy that the music does not reflect the culture portrayed. I have been interested in south pacific cultures for a long time. Of course this is entertainment, not cultural archaeology. But the music of the islands and the migrators who bravely navigated and sailed the waters so long ago is quite important , should not be so slighted. Girls should love this, but I have not had any feedback from the children I know. Moana seems not to have sparked their interest. They should give it a chance. Also the art is terrific and the sentiment is lovely. I liked the grandmother becoming the spirit of a manta ray and guiding the girl to success.

I am happy with this machine, but I have one small problem, that the pet hair wand tip keeps falling from its niche. Otherwise, the product is efficient and convenient. The price was comparable to other similar items

This oven is a joy to use and just the right size for me, cooking for one but it is capable of larger cooking projects. I like the quick times due to the 1200 watt system. It is easy to clean and performs reliably. My only quiibble is about the display and selection pad, which goes black between uses, so I have to open the door to read the panel.

Excellent audio from this DAC.

I have nothing but praise for this cable. I am using it to transfer the audio signal out from my computer through a DVI to HDMI cable through a smart TV to a good receiver, because my computer does not have a digital optical out. Despite all this transferring, the signal is as perfect as I can hope for. If there is signal loss somewhere, it is not in the digital audio cable, so I recommend it highly.

This Sony BDPS6500 Blu-ray player features built-in Wi-Fi. To build a complete 3D home theater system, we recommend you purchase a 3D TV, 3D glasses designed for the TV, high-speed HDMI cable and an A/V receiver that is compatible with 3D products.

Great image and sound, versatile player

I purchased this player because an actual 4k player was not available {this one does upscaling) but I play DVD and Blu-ray and CD and USB memory stick media into a 4k Samsung Video display-TV thru HDMI, and have great fun watching and listening. My only problem is connectivity. I do not know whether the HDMI is ever going to work. I often have to restart the screen or wiggle or pull and replace plugs to get the picture. The audio always works. And sometimes I must use the remote control for the player rather than the video remote, so I know there is a mismatch somewhere. But when everything is working, it is absolutely gorgeous.

How do I connect my iPhone to the audio system Bluetooth.

Turn on the Bluetooth with your remote, then tell your phone to seek Bluetooth devices, find the name of your unit, click to accept, and then transmit your file! Happy listening!

rocketfish digital optical audio cable 12 feet model #:RF-G1220

Is this optical audio cable a good choice for my 2013 Samsung 65" Smart LED HDTV 3d television Model UN65F7050AF, series 7050 (bought from Costco, 1080p, 240Hz, 720 clear motion rate, dual core processor)? I also have a Samsung Smart 3D blu-ray player and a Bose Cinemate GS 11 speaker system (running the audio optical cable directly from my optical audio out on my tv to the audio optical port on the Bose system/only rca jacks port & optical port on the Bose). I want to get the best picture (3d, blu-ray movies, etc) and the best audio/sound (3d, blu-ray movies, etc) possible without spending a small fortune($$$)? Or should I buy a higher quality optical audio cable. This audio optical cable was the only 12 footer Best Buy had in stock with out a special order. Thank you
I have a similar rig. The only problem I had was the socket for the Samsung end of the audio optical cable was difficult to engage. The picture does not go through this cable, and audio will pass through only if your HDMI port is not passing audio with the video. Say, for instance, you are playing a CD, not a video or game.

This Klipsch Reference R-25C center-channel speaker utilizes dual 5-1/4" copper-spun IMG (injection-molded graphite) woofers and a 1" aluminum diaphragm-compression LTS (linear travel suspension) tweeter to produce clear cross-spectrum audio.
 

Can I safely power this center speaker with a 7.2 rceiver/amplifier thta has only 110 Watts per channel?

I am using an Onkyo with only 115 watts, and the Klipsch center channel speaker works fine.

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.
 

My subwoofer has a noticably 60HZ hum when it's turned past 1/3, is this normal?

I suggest switching the polarity. I have the same speaker and no hum. There is also a product sold for stage use which conditions the lines against hum which you could try. I think you may also have some fault in the connection to your amplifier.

This Insignia~ NS-PD94502 adapter allows you to connect your computer's DisplayPort interface to an HDMI type-A input and supports up to 1920 x 1080p resolution, so you can enjoy sharp visuals.
 

HDMI to laptop

My laptop does not have an HDMI port. I need to plug an adapter into the USB port so that I can connect an HDMI cable. Is this the correct device?
Unfortunately, no. If you have USB 3 on your laptop, possibly there might be an adapter for that, and some newer laptops and tablets have a mini-HDMI port, but you must have the correct mate to the port available on your laptop and then the other end must be the HDMi plug.
