Great sound at a low price

I bought this receiver after my other Sony receiver bit the dust after 17 years of service. I was expecting at least equal sound, but I got a big surprise! The sound quality was much better than my previous unit. I bought it on sale during Xmas and it was only $20 more than the 5.2 channel receiver. Plus it came a few more features!
Definitely give this receiver a chance.

Modern Classic!

Verified Purchase:Yes
When the film first came out in 1983 Jean Shepherd's Xmas film was not very successful. But after going to video and holiday broadcasts it became a classic.
A kid in 1940's Indiana wants a Red Ryder 200-shot BB gun, and the adventures begin! You'll meet some of the funniest characters along the way! Most of you have probably seen the film already, but in Blu-Ray the film stands out.

A movie with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Clooney, and Vera-Ellen - all singing music composed by the great Irving Berlin!
A couple of WW2 veterans go on to become a hot singing and entertainment act. Along the way they team up with a sister act(Clooney and Ellen) to a lodge in Vermont in a Christmas show.
There are some memorable moments in the film accompanied by Irving Berlin's wonderful music, and some truly funny gag scenes that you'll enjoy!

Academy Award winner George C Scott gives a powerful performance as Ebenezer Scrooge in this truly heartwarming telling of Charles Dickens' beloved drama. At first, miserable, greedy old Scrooge can't tolerate the revelry of Christmas, much less comprehend it's meaning. But visits from his former business partner's ghost and three cautionary Specter's from the past, present and future force the man to soul-search. Grappling with his own losses, Scrooge recognizes the repercussions of heartlessness in this classic, timeless story that also stars Susannah York and David Warner. Directed by Clive Donner. Starring George C Scott, Edward Woodward, Susannah York, Anthony Walters, David Warner.

A fine version of a classic
on November 24, 2019
Posted by: cmoviefan
Verified Purchase:Yes
I first saw this TV movie on television way back in 1984. There have been so many versions of the Charles Dickens classic over the years, but this one stands out. George C. Scott does a great job of playing Scrooge, and even has a decent English accent.
The best thing about this film is that while it points out that inequality existed then, it still does. A change of heart makes all the difference in the world!

These aren't the last word in fidelity, but they sure do sound very, very good. I needed another pair of headphones as my last ones simply wore out. I was at Best Buy and while browsing decided to give these a try. There were may other headphones on offer at much higher prices, but these work very well. They even sound better than my last ones that had cost more!
Give these a try!

A wonderful classic Christmas film!

This is one of Frank Capra's best films! This is also the first film that Jimmy Stewart was in after his service in the Army Air Corps during WW2.
There story of a man( George Bailey) who has a few setbacks in his life while he sees the other people in his life have what seems like better fortune. He comes to the point where he believes that he would be better off dead. In an attempt to commit suicide he meets his guardian angel Clarence( Henry Travers) who gives George the opportunity to see what life would have been like if he hadn't been born at all. George finds out that his life was much better than he thought. The people whose lives he touched had much better lives with him than without him. His own brother who became a pilot in WW2 saved the lives of many others, and would not have were it not for George saving him from drowning as a child.
The idea that we touch so many other lives is a strong positive message for us all. The film is supported by a strong cast including Donna Reed, Lionel Barrymore, Thomas Mitchell, Henry travers, Beulah Bondi, Ward Bond, Gloria Graham.
It's worth while to watch this film even when it's not the holidays.A Must See!

Great Films!

An outstanding trilogy! These are films for the entire family. These films are about the young Viking Hiccup and his dragon Toothless.
The story in the first film is about how Hiccup and Toothless have an unfortunate first meeting that grows into a strong friendship. Out of tragedy comes something wonderful.
The following films build on this friendship to a poignant finale. Along the way you meet Hiccup's father, a blacksmith, and several of his peers in their village. Best of all you learn that not everything is what we think they are.
A must see trio of films!

These movies came out several years ago.They are sci/fi horror genre films and 28 Days Later was/is a shocking movie to watch. The movie starts after the zombie creating virus ( Rage) has already had the chance to infect people. The main character wakes up to a changed world. And its a shocking horrifying world of Zombies! Along the way he meets a broad range of people to a hopeful future.
28 Weeks Later takes place 28 weeks after the original. The characters are all-new, and ratchets up the excitement.
Both films are worth watching in Blu-ray.

If I use a any brand soundbar will there be any problem?

I can't say yes or no. I use a Sony AV receiver for my audio. I asked someone else the same thing, and they said that most of the smart TV's have a built-in app. for recognizing different brand soundbars.

Hi, What operating system does the Q60A use, Android? Thank You

I talked to Samsung directly about a media play-back issue. During the course of the conversation I learned that Samsung uses it's own proprietary operating system. Many other companies use Android,

Push productivity and your gaming experience with the IPS Display. At 31.5" and 2560 x 1440 resolution, LG's QHD IPS Display features true color, contrast, clarity and detail at wide angles. Fast response, all the ports you need and easy-adjust stand. Whatever the task, get it done fast.
 

You’re description says IPS .. LED. This Must be a mistake, because IPS cannot work with anything but LCD.

IPS is an LCD based design. LCD has an LED backing to illuminate it, but it isn't the same as LED. OLED is just an updated design.

Will this headset be compatable to a CD stero system?

They should work just fine with your system, but you may have to buy an adapter between the headphones and your system. Look to see if the audio pin is compatible with your unit.

Does this device transfer data files also?

I managed to transfer the entire contents of an older thumb drive to the SanDisk flash drive in very little time. I don't know if this was helpful to you.
