Impressive, beautiful, immersive war drama
on March 22, 2021
Posted by: akin6172
Verified Purchase:Yes
A unique take on war, effective representation on the difficulties and sacrifices that soldiers went through during war.Amazing picture quality with enough tense moments to make you shiver. One of the best movies of the last decade and Roger deakins cinematography is absolutely sublime just like his previous efforts in sicario and blade runner 2049. A must own disc

Great Do atmos demo disc and equally awesome movie
on March 4, 2021
Posted by: akin6172
Verified Purchase:Yes
Amazing movie and even more amazing sound. This movie looks great, awesome use of hdr and specular highlights. If you have a dolby atmos capable surround sound system, this is the movie to test your subwoofer. The bass in this movie is insane, when the car engines rev up it will shake your room. This movie is the perfect advert for how sound should be mastered in a movie. Do yourself a favour and get this movie it does everything right great visuals, killer sound , story and action is top notch by a master director.

Awesome sound and good entertainment

Good movie, actually bought it to test the DTS X sound encoding on the disc. I recently bought a New soundbar with dolby atmos and dtsx support. The dts x is actually quite punchy especially in the action scenes. Overall, it's a good movie

Good TV, amazing value.. Dolby Vision issues
on March 14, 2020
Posted by: akin6172
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have had this TV for over 3 months with over 300hrs of usage time.I should give this TV a 5 star review if not for just one thing i noticed while using it. This Oled is amazing value with all the latest bells and whistles. it has hdmi 2.1 and e ARC which is going to be huge in the coming years because all new device interface will support it and it will make connectivity and performance easier and faster. The price has come down a lot and this is probably the best time to pick one up. The picture quality when playing both SDR and HDR is simply amazing with so much clarity and sharpness, when you watch the right content this TV really shines. I paired it with a vizio 5.1.2 atmos soundbar and it has been working flawlessly even better than my previous Vizio Qled which had a lot of connection issues.My only issue with this TV is its presentation of Dolby vision which is absolutely disappointing when you put it side by side with the so called inferior quality of HDR10 material. HDR10 content on this TV absolutely looks amazing with vibrant colors and amazing highlights that break out of the screen. Dolby vision ,on the other hand looks washed out and less punchy with dim highlights. The color presentation of dolby vision is simply disappointing when compared to HDR10. I dont want to believe I am the only person that noticed this. I really dont see the fuss with dolby vision and would like to implore LG to support HDR10+.They say dolby needs a 12 bit panel and 400nits of brightness to be accurate. I want to believe this also has to do with the Lg A9 chip because i have seen Dolby vision on the Sony A9G and it looks amazing, I dont understand why it is so weak on the LG oled, LG needs to look into this and try to fix it . I watched the Superbowl in HDR 10 on this TV and it looked amazing, this TV has so much untapped potential that is being held back by LG 's inferior processing. Other Oleds from panasonic and especially sony have better picture quality due to their better processor. I hope LG can release a firmware to improve dolby vision on the A9 chip but i believe they have most likely moved all the good stuff to the Lg CX which is coming soon.

Great compact and feature packed device

I wasn't a believer in this smart home eco system stuff but my short experience with the Google mini has made me a believer. The device setup is extremely easy to setup using your phone, I have it currently linked to 2 lights and my TV. It tells me the weather, latest news, turn the lights and TV on and off. For the current price, I consider this a bargain and would definitely recommend for those getting into the smart home. The speaker while playing musicisnt the loudest or punchiest ,it's just fine for its size.

A Visceral experience with amazing cinematography
on December 19, 2019
Posted by: akin6172
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is one of the best looking movies that has ever been shot in the history of cinema. I was constantly asking myself that did they shoot that scene without literally killing themselves. This movie simply goes beyond film making and was definitely a really punishing experience for cast and crew. It is a visual masterpiece that is enhanced with 4k and HDR. This is an must watch for any film fan. Amazing

Discover a whole new level of immersion that envelops you in 7.1.2 channel surround sound with multiple speakers, a built-in subwoofer and advanced audio technologies. And with rear speakers it supports 360 Spatial Sound Mapping.
 

The sound quality of my Sony OLD 83" TV, 7000 soundbar and 2 wireless speakers is unacceptable. The sound quality as advertised is not the same. Why do i have to keep turning the TV up to 50 to 60 to hear it?

Try turning on the Voice option on your remote. Also turn off Audio DRC and Turn on Advanced auto volume. To do this
Press Home on the remote >setup>advanced settings>audio settings.
Make sure Audio DRC is off, it limits the volume by as much as 50%

I have a SONY ultra HD Blu-ray / DVD player and hundreds of CDs and Blue-ray discs. Can I enjoy these discs fully by plugging the player into this 7000 soundbar without any amplifier/receiver?

Yes , it should work plugged in. Both Sony devices so they should work fine

I have a LG 70UM6970PUA, I watch most of my content through a Chromecast with google tv. I also have a ps4 & switch that are connected. I was looking to get the HT-A7000 and new SA-RS5 speakers. Is this sound bar compatible or too much for my current tv?

It should be okay, I have an LG C2 and it works fine with it

Can the sound bar be attached to the bottom of the TV? I have a Sony - 65" Class BRAVIA XR A80J Series OLED 4K UHD and the TV is on a dynamic wall mount (the mount can be moved around.). I would like the sound bar to be attached to the TV or the mount.

It can't be attached to the TV but it comes with wall brackets in the box so u can fix it on the wall under the TV

How do you turn this thing on? It says it suppose to turn on automatically after I plug in, and it says hello, but I can't get it to do that. The remote won't turn it on either. Am I missing a switch somewhere? This is my 2nd unit figure. The 1st was a de

Sounds like you have a defective unit, I just plugged mine in and pressed the power button on the remote or the the touch button on the bar itself.connect a device to it like a streamer and see if it changes, make sure it is hooked up correctly to the tv. Take it to best buy and have it checked out

Can a Roku streaming 4k remote control the Sony HT-A7000 volume and mute? Thank you.

I believe it should, my apple tv . Nvidia shield and fire cube remotes can control it. If you plug into the sound bar , I think it should work fine.

Will the HT-A7000 fit under a Sony a80K with the stand/legs in the raised "soundbar" configuration?

I have an A90j in the raised position and it fits under it ,so I believe it should fit under an A80k also

Basic bootup speeds won~t cut it ~ not at work, on the go, or in the game. But the Crucial P3 SSD is anything but basic. With NVMe performance that~s more than 6x faster than SATA2 and storage capacities up to 4TB3, the P3 leaves older storage technology in the dust. Get faster bootups, downloads and file transfers, and store all your files, photos, videos, apps, and games with room to spare with the quality and dependability you expect from Crucial.
 

Does this come with a screw to install it?

No it doesn't come with a screw.
