Sony, what has happened to you???
on August 22, 2020
Posted by: Rusty
Verified Purchase:Yes
Well, this is unit #3!!! The first 2 were the previous model UBP-X800. That model froze every other day. Sony replaced it during warranty. The second unit started doing the exact same thing, but it curiously waited until the much reduced warranty period for replacement units had JUST expired. Sony website has THOUSANDS of the same complaint, and the Sony expert writes in and says "call this number and we will get this taken care of" but beware, that's a lie!! After going back and forth and going as far as you can with Sony Corporate the end result is NO HELP, YOU ARE STUCK!! I even asked if they could just give me a reduced price on a replacement - answer NO. (Just an aside, my HP printer stopped taking in the paper 1 year OUT OF warranty and HP said "it can't be fixed, sorry" and send me a new one for free. THAT is customer support!!!) So on with the saga... I bought this one and am hoping for the best because it has really good picture and sound. The included video apps are now 3 - yes that is right, 3!!! Miss my SIRIUS and Pandora...makes me remember when Sony was top of the heap. (Still on top, but a different pile.) 2 months in and so far so good. But the moral of the story, DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT WITHOUT GEEK SQUAD SUPPORT!!!!

Surprise purchase!!
on August 20, 2020
Posted by: Rusty
Verified Purchase:Yes
My brother just got a new garage door opener, and he was bragging that he has an app on his phone that tells him if the door is open or closed, and he can operate the door from the app. Well, I did a little investigating and found that inexpensive little hub would enable my 8 year old opener to do the same thing. The feature that excites me the most is that we forget and frequently leave the garage door open over night. We live in a gated community where the security makes a midnight patrol, and then calls you at 2am to let you know if your garage door is open. This unit has the ability to schedule the door to automatically close at a time you select each day if the door is still open. That feature is worth it's weight in gold!!! Only had it for 3 days, and so far, so good. It was a little tricky to pair, but after a call to Chamberlin Support, we're good to go.

This movie is a remake of the 1960 classic - although maybe more famous for the Elmer Bernstein score! In any case, thoroughly enjoyable.

I expected a lot better quality from this player. It has locked up twice in the two evenings I have used it. Can't even cycle off the power without unplugging the unit. Very disappointed. Having to move a 75" TV to reset this unit is a pain. Video quality is great, along with the audio. Maybe its a defective unit. I'll give it a couple of more tries before returning the unit. We have two other SONY unit from WALMART that have worked flawlessly for over three years.

Yes, it will support atmos, you have to make sure that you have the settings right...BD Secondary Output OFF, and Downmix Surround. I had to change these settings in the AUDIO menu, and now my Denon Amp says DOLBY ATMOS when appropriate.

I bought this for a friend with hearing issues. It is really helpful to boost audio levels and improve clarity. I gave it 4 stars, because it is impossible for a 2 piece unit to deliver the sound imaging of the 5 or 6 piece units, but the sound is very clean and excellent quality.

Josh, here's why...
December 30, 2021
Josh, I understand your comment "So... give it the number of stars for what it is, a 2.1 system, not a surround system. If it's a great 2.1 system, give it five stars. If you want a surround system, pony up the bucks!" I agree with your comment, HOWEVER, the 2.1 product description states "provides an increased level of immersion, no matter the content, room size or shape, creating floor-to-ceiling virtualized 3D sound that transforms a sci-fi film into an intergalactic adventure, or music into a live concert". It does not. Hence four stars for falling short of the promised virtualized 3D sound. It does do a great job of boosting audio levels and improve clarity with excellent quality (for the price). Folks need to know if there is a reason to consider the 5.1 when, from the printed description the 2.1 sounds just as enticing. I agree, it is not the same, and that is what I pointed out. My home system is the Denon Denon AVR-8500H 13.2-channel, 11 B&W speakers and 2 JL Audio 750w subs. The system is outstanding in every respect, and delivers more than promised...serious bucks were ponied. I rely on these ratings when I'm trying to decide between models, and my review might help someone with less experience looking for help.

I had the same issue, my Firestick (attached to a Sharp TV) from the bedroom turned on the Insignia Fire TV in the kitchen. I was able to pair the bedroom Firestick to the Sharp TV and it no longer affects the Insignia Fire TV in the kitchen.

As far as the Right & Left rear speaker placement, is it Right & Left as you face them, or Right & Left as you sit on the couch and they are behind you? I have looked at all the instructions and diagrams available, and cannot find clarification.

What is difference between UBP-X700 vs X800?
I spent days on the internet researching that question! I think the 800 has high res audio, and the 700 does not. The 800 is much heavier and larger and gives the outward impression of a more premium unit. That being said, I have had two 800's, one was quirky and skipped/froze often (Geek squad was unable to remedy that situation) so I bought another 800 that has been trouble free. I then added a 700 to a different room and have been equally pleased with that unit as well. My advice would be to go with the cheaper unit unless you have a "state of the art" sound system.

Losing or damaging your remote control can be a headache, but you can regain control of your TV and other devices with the Insignia NS-RMT5D21 5-Device Backlit Universal Remote. Our remote is compatible with nearly all major brands and offers easy preprogramming for an effortless pairing that won~t require any codes. And you can even set up your remote to adjust your soundbar volume without changing devices, giving you full control of your audio. Program the remote with your favorite apps, using it to open your most-used streaming services. If you still have your old remote, you can even teach your new remote its functions, guaranteeing that you~ll have access to everything right at your fingertips.
The Insignia 497 Sq. Ft. HEPA Air Purifier removes allergens, large irritants, mold, dust, pet dander, smoke and pollen with the included HEPA filter. The active carbon filter also removes odors, keeping your house smelling clean and fresh. An LED display makes it easy to check the air quality of your home and change the settings of the air purifier, such as the speed, timer or child lock. It~s ideal for a large-sized room up to 497 sq. ft.
Cfm for each speed? How long does it take to purify a room of 320sq(how many times per hour)
Don't know the answer to your question, BUT....the unit senses the impurities in the air and then adjusts its speed accordingly to remediate the situation. One of our units is in the kitchen/dining area and usually reads number 007 and fluctuates a little up and down - unless of course you fry something, and then it spikes for awhile and eventually comes back down. The one in the bedroom stays around 001-003 and never really changes. We leave them both on all the time and have esperienced significant allergy relief.

I don't have any experience with your issue, but we live in Florida and it does a great job with the excessive pollen and keeps my allergies in check. My guess would be yes.

I know the smaller number on the display is the ppm, what is the bigger number on the display
The smaller number (PPM) is letting you know that it is reporting at 2.5PPM and that number does not change. The larger number is the sensor and tells you the current air quality - the lower the number the less 'stuff' the machine is sensing and removing. The number goes higher and so does the fan as it senses more impurities. Blow some smoke or vape at it and see what happens!
