Impressive sound
on June 21, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
I am very impressed on how well the DHT S216 fills a large room (30x40) with sound. The bass is impressive for the 'sub-woofers' on the bottom; can be a bit 'boomy' with some TV content, but carries action movie sound tracks well. Overall it' has well balanced sound producing clear dialogue, good movie sound track performance as well as competent musical reproduction. The ARC lets you use the TV remote for sound and the Bluetooth works well to stream. The design will fit your set up looking very natural. Set up is very simple too. You'll be very happy with this unit and ecstatic over the TV speakers.

Very impressive performance and features. Most impressed with the noise cancelling, feature integration and ease of use. Sound quality, while good not impressive for price point. Bought second pair replacing a 'bone conducting' model my other daughter wanted, but changed her mind after trying these.

Ended up buying three to replace my older non-supported units. I didn't need the Ultra but wanted the Ethernet port . Finding I like the extra features. Headphone remote is very nice with good sound as are the TV functions.

Worth the investment

We have 4 and I prefer it to the other smart plugs for ease of set up and Alexa integration. Only issue, typical of all plugs, is the extra inch protruding from the wall. Can be tight behind furniture. Convenient to turn on/off from anywhere in house or with you hands full.

Very Good, not perfect
on January 15, 2020

Verified Purchase:Yes
Set up was a bit contentious. It doesn't work on a guest network. We installed/un-installed app and set up 15 times with the help of Tech support over a week and a half. They were not so helpful countering what was on the website & FAQs. It will work on its own without the setup connecting it to your phone/Alexa by pressing the button on top. You can start, pause, return home or stop w/ Alexa too. Overall does a very good job for light vacuuming. It doesn't replace your regular vacuum or vacuuming. Impressed with the amount of dust and pet hair it picks up and hair not wrapping up on brushes. The suction packs a lot in the dust bin which is at capacity by the time the battery is low and returned home. Electrical cords and small rugs can be an issue; pick them up or block that area. It's wondering path does a good job of vacuuming while not appearing efficient. Covered the entire first floor in/out of every room in two cleaning cycles. Impressively returns home most of the time without issue. The APP notifications tell you whether job complete or stuck as well as return home option in the middle of cleaning.

If your home theater system could use a boost, look no further than the Insignia NS-HTSB22 2.0-Channel Soundbar. This dual-channel system amplifies your TV~s existing audio and boosts your TV or music-listening experience. The soundbar provides multiple hookup options, including HDMI, Digital Optical, 3.5 mm AUX and USB. Or use Bluetooth to wirelessly sync your soundbar to another Bluetooth-enabled device. Three audio modes give you the flexibility to experience the best audio regardless of what you~re listening to. IR remote learning functionality lets you teach your soundbar functions from another remote, such as that from your TV. It~s wall mountable and includes all the hardware necessary, plus both an optical cable and 3.5 mm cable, meaning you can set up this soundbar right out of the box. Don~t put off improving your new home theater system!
 

Why doesn't the soundbar turn off with Pioneer Xumo connected to eARC HDMI? Set up per instruction settings 3 times; doesn't go into standby when TV is turned off (white light stays on. The same sound bar turns off w/ Insignia TV connected in same manor.

Toshiba~s V35 series sets up a stunning, heart-shaking, smart world for your relaxing viewing experience, thanks to the consistent innovation of advanced technologies. True-to-life images jump off the screen with amazing HD resolution, ultimately beauty of details, and original natural color. For a more immersive audio experience, a premium audio post-processing solution brings height to the entertainment experience that elevates surround sound formatting from DTS Virtual:X.
 

Is the power to the USB ports always on? Is there a way to switch the power on/off when the TV is turned on/off? I can't find anything in the settings or set up. I want to turn a LED light strip, used for bias lighting, on/off with TV power.

We have carpet through out the house, will the Roomba 890 go from room to room? Also have shag throw rugs on top of carpet, will the 890 get stuck on them?

Ours manages 9 rooms, hallways and entry on the first floor with carpet, tile & throw rugs Granted not all nine rooms are done on a single battery charge - usually 2-3 cleaning cycles to get it all. Depending on how 'light or stiff' the throw rugs are will determine whether they vacuum or wad up/move.

Will this device pick cat litter with no problems ?

Wouldn't see a problem w/ dry cat litter. Ours handles most dry crumb like material without issue, however a friends was a mess when it ran over dog poop.

I have a small house full of furniture with hardwood been looking for one because wife and me don't get around that good we don't have iphones but we have wifi but my son and family livr here and thay do could anybody recommend something

It's a great addition to your vacuum, but won't replace it 100% . Occasionally you'll still need to vacuum. The iRobot will work with out the app by pressing the button on top. Your family could set up the unit for you on their phone/tablet to get it on your Wi-Fi then you could control it with Alexa/Google Home.
