Cybertron has fallen. When Optimus Prime sends Bumblebee to defend Earth, his journey to become a hero begins. Charlie Watson (Hailee Steinfeld), a teenager trying to find her place in the world, discovers and repairs the battle-scarred robot, who's disguised as a Volkswagen Beetle. As the Decepticons hunt down the surviving Autobots with the help of a secret agency led by Agent Burns (John Cena), Bumblebee and Charlie team up to protect the world in an action-packed adventure that's fun for the whole family.

Better than your average transformer flick

Posted by: StrayCat25

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bumblebee is the best of the Transformer movies (not a very high bar). Like the rest of the bunch, it's mindless, loud, fun. The Dolby Vision picture and Dolby Atmos audio are outstanding.

One of the better Stephen King Adaptations
on April 5, 2019
Posted by: StrayCat25
from Kissimmee, FL, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Almost forgot about this one. Pet Sematary is one of the few adaptations of a Stephen King work that gets it (mostly) right. Nice, not demo worthy, Dolby Vision picture. Audio quality is good, but lack of Dolby Atmos is a bummer. Good disc for the price.

In a world where Brooklyn teen Miles Morales (voiced by Shameik Moore) got that fateful radioactive spider bite-and the mantle of Spider-Man-the use of a particle accelerator by the Kingpin (Liev Schreiber) is causing existence to fissure. As alternate-dimension Spideys like Peter Parker (Jake Johnson), Gwen Stacy (Hailee Steinfeld), Spider-Man Noir (Nicolas Cage), and Spider-Ham (John Mulaney) pile into his reality, can they help Miles undo the chaos? Oscar-winning animated effort also stars the voices of Mahershala Ali, Brian Tyree Henry. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English.

Best Spiderman, Best Home Theater Presentation

The best Spiderman product since the original comic books and Saturday morning cartoon. I upgraded to an OLED display last September and this is the most beautiful image I have viewed on it yet. The Dolby Atmos soundtrack is reference quality.

Bohemian Rhapsody is an enthralling celebration of Queen, their music, and their extraordinary lead singer Freddie Mercury, who defied stereotypes and convention to become one of history's most beloved entertainers. Following Queen's meteoric rise, their revolutionary sound and Freddie's solo career, the film also chronicles the band's reunion, and one of the greatest performances in rock history.

This Film Will Rock You..
on February 22, 2019
Posted by: StrayCat25
from Kissimmee, FL, USA
Verified Purchase:Yes
Excellent biopic of one of rock's all time great performers (and bands). I was in my early to mid twenties during the films' timeline and Bohemian Rhapsody captures the mood of that time. The age of Live Aid was the last great era for popular music and MTV. The uhd disc includes one special feature: the entire Queen Live Aid show as recreated for the film. Even though it's a recreation with actors instead of the actual band, it is the best live concert video I have seen in a long time. HDR picture and Dolby Atmos sound are outstanding.

Reference class quality is here with the DP-UB9000P1K. Our HCX (Hollywood Cinema Experience) processor optimizes color, clarity and detail in 4K/HDR formats like HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. The result is a exciting array of highest quality video and audio options from 4K UHD Blu-ray discs to 4K upscaling, VOD 4K streaming, voice assist and more.
 

How can I remove the black bars from my screen (top & bottom) while paying a blue ray disk. I like to watch movies with a full TV screen. I just bought the DP-UB9000 today.

It~s the best of the best. We didn~t raise the bar, we shut it down. The Redline 360c sets the new standard for radar detectors with extreme detection range, 360~ directional awareness, 100% true stealth and the best overall performance from any detector. Get ready to REDefine the Road with the Redline 360c.
 

What firmware version

Firmware 1.6 is the newest version. You can check the firmware version on your unit by holding the “mark” and “mute” buttons during power up. If you have an earlier version it’s very easy to update to the newest firmware version (highly recommended) using Escort’s Detector Tools app or through a WiFi connection.

Take movie nights to the next level with this 5.1.2 VIZIO home theater sound system. It has Dolby Atmos technology built-in, so sound seems to come from all around you, and a six-inch powerful subwoofer creates thumping bass you can feel. This VIZIO home theater sound system has a main sound bar that produces rich, clear audio.
 

Is this a new unit

It depends on what you mean by new. If you mean not used, the answer is yes- the seller would have to list it as used or refurbished if that was the case. If you are asking if the soundbar was a recent addition to the Vizio product line, the answer is no. This model has been available for at least a year.

The Reference Premiere RP-280FA floorstanding speaker is built upon the same technology and power as the RP-280F floorstanding speaker, but with an elevation channel integrated into the top of the speaker to reflect sound off the ceiling to deliver the overhead Dolby Atmos experience.
 

What are the center and surround matching speakers?

The Klipsch website can be helpful. I would stay in the Reference Premiere(RP) line and not the lower priced, often on sale Reference(R) line. If you purchase the RP-280FA, you are getting an incredible deal on a great pair of speakers. You may have to buy the rest of the setup from the newest Reference Premiere line at full price, but you will have a great setup for hours of home theatre and music listening pleasure for years to come.

the authorized klipsch page claims the rp-280 fa is 150 watts continuous and 600w peak, while best buy is claiming 900w peak. are these an updated model? is best buy playing fast and loose with the specs?

The RP280FA is actually two speakers in one cabinet (including separate speaker wire terminals), a front firing floor speaker and an upward firing atmos speaker. The 900 watt figure quoted by Best Buy is a sum of 600 watts for the floor speaker and 300 for the atmos speaker.

To anyone wondering, these are NOT considered real Klipsch, they are department store speakers and nothing more, made dirt cheap over sea's. PWK would roll in his grave if he saw this with his name on it. You go to a Klipsch dealer to buy the real ones.

It’s true that these speakers, like the majority of current Klipsch products, are imported. RP-280SA are from the Reference Premiere line, which is a definite step above that Reference series found on the shelves at any Best Buy. The RP-280SA is an Atmos ready speaker. I purchased a pair as part of a major upgrade to my home theater room, and I don’t think you can touch their performance at the current clearance price.
