Not worth upgrade

Verified Purchase:Yes
If you are upgrading from the Chromecast with google TV 4K, its not worth paying double the price, Agree its faster but not higjly noticeable though double RAM and Ethernet present. Picture amd audio quality is same as previous midel. I have 200 inch screen in a dedicated home theater and didn’t see any difference. Expected a lot with double the price. If looking for a chromecast, better go with older model itself. May be you can go with this if looking to use other options of using othrr than streaming. If its just for streaming, not worth $99

Excellent subwwofer
on February 17, 2023
Posted by: HTGuy
Verified Purchase:Yes
The wattage might be small, but once you turn the subwoofer volume to 75%, you will see the real power of this. Nowadays it is hard to find any down firing subwoofers which are really pretty good. Good to see Polk has this model released and I grabbed it though there no reviews anywhere. My recommendation is to place this behind seating position and you will get the feel of sofa being vibrated in action scenes and this feel is similar to AMC Dolby Cinema subwoofer effects in the seats. But make sure that the volume is turned up to 75% and you will enjoy your home theater at the new levels. One more thing is I got it $229 deal and it is a very good price

Not a worthy upgrade from 1st gen 4K Apple TV
on June 10, 2021
Posted by: HTGuy
Verified Purchase:Yes
If you already have 1st gen 4K Apple TV, I don't think there is any need to upgrade to this model. One can hardly find any big improvement. Better hold on to the 1st gen itself. Just for the sake of new remote, no need to pay $179.

5 out of 5way better than my old one
By Gary
from Mooresville
I needed to replace my 3D bluray player which lasted about 9 years which was also an Lg. Lg 's 3d was always very good but this new player is incredible. what is also nice is that my 3d tv is NOT 4k, but the player is. The dvd player down scales the 4k movies to 1080 which really was a good design because my tv is also as old as the original player so it is probably going to need to be replaced shortly as well . So when the tv goes I don't have to buy a new dvd player in 4k . I know 3d is done but have to admit the Lg 3d with the passive glasses is really amazing

reply from google support is useless as they don't get what the original reviewer mentioned.

Start your new entertainment life in the media room, where the RZ50 passes 8K HDR video to your display via HDMIR~optimized for lag-free gameplay and feeds Dolby AtmosR or DTS:XR sound to your 5.2.4-ch speaker system with high-current power behind it. Move to another space and music follows with three-zone powered audio and the SMART AV Receiver suite controlled by voice with easy access to streaming services. The AVR fits into your Sonos system and plays to headphones over bidirectional BluetoothR wireless technology. With 75 years of hi-fi knowhow elevating our THXR Certified Select and IMAXR Enhanced certified RZ Series custom amp design, music, film scores, and game soundtracks thrill with emotion, sound perfected by Dirac LiveR Room Correction. This AVR has features others don~t, such as front-to-height stereo switching for background listening, DSP vocal/dialog enhancement, My Volume presets, and an OSD function that compares source data to output settings so playback can be optimized before entertainment kicks off.

I was not disappointed. All specs were excellent. The user interface was a great improvement over the Denon, Onkyo and Yamaha receivers I have used recently. Tip: when moving from 2 to 4 height speakers the connection of back surround will change. The sound quality left nothing else to be desired, excellent. The preamp outs for all channels added flexibility for experimenting with external homemade speakers, equalizers and analog amps. Loved the DIRAC calibration which used the computing power of a cellphone. I will mention one other unique issue I had. I was using 2 passive subwoofers with my choice of full range stereo amps. I needed to add external equalizer as during some music environments I could hear noise (digital?). A regular powered subwoofer would not have this issue, low pass filter and bass boost is built in.

height speakers questin
October 30, 2022
Hi.. I am exactly in the same situation of using 4 height speakers and to use height 2 additional speakers, I had to use preouts for surround back as mentioned in the manual. I am using trigger cable also. But for some reason, Onkyo never recognizes the surround back. No sound coming when i check in level calibration. In Amazon Q&A section, everyone says to use zone 3/hieght 2 which I tried, but no luck. Any idea/suggestion on how you were able to get it worked?
I had Denon 4400H before this and that worked perfectly fine with additional height speakers

HDR to SDR vice versa switch - All streaming devices usually have a lag (black screen for a while) on switching from one format to another. Even the previous model of Apple TV 4K has that. Does this new model has any improvement in that?

Roku Select Series 4K TVs are thoughtfully designed to upgrade your entertainment at an incredible value. Enjoy your streaming favorites in brilliant 4K HDR picture that~s optimized for your room lighting with automatic brightness. Catch every word with built-in sound features like auto speech clarity and night mode or enjoy private listening with headphones. Switch to your inputs and watch free live TV right from the home screen, or use the voice remote to find movies, shows, or songs across thousands of channels. And even your deepest couch cushions are no match for the lost remote finder. A smart TV made by Roku? Now that makes sense.
Google Wifi is the easy Wi-Fi upgrade that is a great value. It blankets your whole home with up to 4,500 square feet of fast, reliable Wi-Fi and helps your network stay safe.*
