Steven Spielberg's masterful take on the H.G. Wells classic stars Tom Cruise as Ray Ferrier, a divorced New Jersey Everyman whose weekend with his kids (Dakota Fanning, Justin Chatwin) is shattered by an alien invasion. As the decidedly unfriendly E.T.s and their menacing tripods devastate the planet, Ferrier bravely attempts to reach his ex-wife (Miranda Otto) in Boston, encountering the best and worst of humanity along the way. Tim Robbins also stars. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack English. Two-disc set.

Muffled Atmos Sound
on February 27, 2021
Posted by: Helping
Verified Purchase:Yes
I give it two stars because atmos content was terrible. Complete MUFFLING when intense action scenes happen. Aquaman was my go to movie for this system and when Aquaman versus his brother in a duel, the sound just distorts and gets muffled. There have been reviews about this as well. The subwoofer during the calibration sounded like it was blown out as well, but could have just been the the calibration making it appear that way. Literally returned this item the next day. Its too bad.

Fantastic soundbar
on February 27, 2021
Posted by: Helping
I have tried the 950t, the q80r, jbl 9.1, and the lgsn11rg. The ambeo sound completely blows them out of the water - warm, natural, organic tones from vocals, effects, and movie soundtracks.
*I will admit the marketing for a complete 5.1.4 is a farce. Nothing comes from behind or behind-above me, but sometimes pretty close.*
Back to the good stuff - this is the most theatrical sounding soundbar out there as we speak. I mean i’m not even kidding; the T-REX roar in the first jurassic park is ungodly - so much power! Yes i would LOVE to have rear speakers but theres always one thing you have to sacrifice when buying any soundbar whether it’s lack of audio codecs, rears, weak sub, no side-firing speakers, etc - this soundbars downfall is the rears BUT thats not to neglect the power and sheer ferocity it can produce. The soundstage is massive.
The best thing about this soundbar is you can add ANY subwoofer you want. Ive been holding out because i live in an apartment and i want to use a big ol’ sub not a small one with this bar. Even without a subwoofer it still performs very well. Sometimes youll notice bass missing, but thats to be expected without a sub. Totally would recommend!
Just a fair warning - as with most soundbars really - room acoustics are important: side walls, 14ft flat ceilings or lower, and proximity between you and the bar itself (probably about 8-10ft away at most if possible).
I suggest if you are very interested in trying this beast, put it on a credit card, take it home, try it for a week, and then if you hate it no money out of your pocket and returning to bestbuy is easy. However if you love it - then you are golden!

Great performance - but lacking needed bass.
on January 18, 2021
Posted by: Helping
Verified Purchase:Yes
I give this 3 stars because the surround sound and atmos is superb - the bass not so much. I have tried multiple attempts reconnecting and hard resetting to see if the subwoofer would ever BOOM but it feels like it is stuck at one level no matter how high i go.
This is my SECOND 950t because i thought i had a faulty one. The first subwoofer just wasnt hitting the low notes very well. I heard them such as in Aquaman, but nothing ever chest pounding like my previous Samsung Q80r. Sometimes it would sound like nothing is there. My q80r could never go past -3 for the subwoofer because it would be too much for the apartment. For this 950t i beg to get that same feeling at +6 (max). I thought hmm maybe it is faulty?
I returned and got another one. Well guess what, the same exact thing. Its really strange because i can hear the bass but increasing it does absolutely nothing. This unit has also had volume problems where i cant lower the subwoofer all of a sudden, and when i lower the main bar’s volume down only the bar level goes down and not the rears.
All in all, idk how these customer have had no issues when ive had two units in a row giving the same issue for the sub - the second unit even causing more problems such as the random volume issue.
Do not buy if you are looking for a movie theater experience with moving bass. I promise you, you will regret it.

Everything was great until..

Verified Purchase:Yes
So this mouse is much lighter than previous versions of the m65 which I really like. The rgb is nice, the sensor is accurate, and great fit in my stocky/large hand, however the most annoying thing ever is the placement of the sniper button. It’s literaly right on my thumb the entire time and it kept confusing me not to press that button and to focus on hitting the left and right mouse buttons. Sometimes I would accidentally hit the sniper button because my mind auto thinks it’s a shoot button instead of an aim button. There was no grip style I could do without laying right on top of it. I’m all for convenience and helping my shooting, however I had to place my thumb farther down the mouse causing me to have a weird grip the entire time i used it and I just couldn’t get past it. I really wanted to love this mouse. I can’t say I would not recommend because everyone’s grip style and size for their hand is different.

Great card for a price
on December 28, 2018
Posted by: Helping
This card does a phenomenal job performance wise. Money is not an issue, so I went ahead and purchased the best of the best right now. This card is faster than any other gpu right now, even aftermarket 2080ti’s. It has more cuda cores, more vram, higher clock speeds, and more RTX cores. You really don’t need this card compared to the 2080ti since this card is really based on deep learning, AI stuff like what Quadro cards do. I got it because it is the fastest card out right now and it has not let me down. Great gaming performance.

Not as good as it should be for the price.
By Skaarj
I purchased the SA-SW5 along with the HT-A7000 sound bar and SA-RS5 speakers. Sadly the SA-SW5 is my least favorite part of the purchase. The sound bar and speakers are awesome. However the SA-SW5 subwoofer is underwhelming in my 15’X18’ room. I have a Sony SA-CS9 sub that cost half as much money but produces more deep couch vibrating and tight sound than the SA-SW5. Turning the sub volume up does not help and actually makes it worse causing some intermittent rattling. Too bad Sony doesn’t have a sub out jack on the HT-A7000 sound bar. I would expect a lot more from a sub with a MSRP price of $700.

How well does this handle regular 5.1 or 7.1 content? For example, does it have an up-mixing option to at least widen the soundstage with whatever content you watch or is it only with ATMOS and DTSX you get that WOW factor?

Is the delivery time/store pick up date accurate? Or are they delaying orders?

hahaha this is the greatest joke in history.

the answer is NO - 100% NO. my computer is already a day late and customer service via live chat and phone can't pin where the product is aside from "it shipped from warehouse". I was lucky enough to get that information, but of course NO delivery date on when to expect it.

It's asinine BestBuy limits the employees knowledge of their employees so they can only frustrate the customer even more. It's like it is on purpose. 'who knows where it is - you'll just have to sit back and wait. Oh well!"

BestBuy is pathetic, and a loser in the shipping world.

Arena 9 is a 5.1 gaming surround speaker system over a single USB connection with RGB lighting, composed of four speakers, a center channel speaker, and a 6.5" subwoofer.
 

please describe whatever wiring needs to be done in attaching this to your pc and getting it going?

i can tell you one thing - the surround speakers are tethered together by a wire: you plug one speaker into a wall, and the other speaker shares a wire that connects to that same speaker that is connected to the wall.

it makes placement more difficult.

Is there any wireless subwoofer comparing to Ambeo - Sennheiser instead of Wired Sub.

I dont believe there is a wireless sub to connect with the ambeo. You will need to buy a subwoofer cable and plug it into the soundbar and the other end to the sub.
