I bought this model due to the price point vice the SR6015. I also liked the fact that there is no internal microphone in the SR5015. Alexa and all that. I really do not use.
Sounds fantastic for music, surround, superior upscaled 8k signal, and ease of use. I think I made a great choice. Happy with product.

Excellent! This Sonicare 9000 Special Edition unit is superior to my old electric toothbrush. Sonicare APP installed and works fine. This thing really humms and has the smart brushSync technology feature that tells you when the brush head needs to be replaced. APP also gives updates on how you're brushing.
Great deal on the Special Edition Total Tech price. Has most of the accessories that the $350.00 model has for half the price.

Looks and wurks fine. I caught a sale and it had a 100x100 VESA mount capability that made it work 4 me. If you have a hutch, get a extendable mount and mount your monitor! You wont be sorry for the space you create in front of you. I added a board behind hutch to help mount it. Wall mountable as well.

Very nice product. Very happy with purchase. If I didn't own the Bowers 1000 watt sub then I would have never known the difference.
I give the nod to Bowers for the cabinet look as well. Gloss black.
I could not beat the deal on this sub though. For my second system. No slouch either. Just not as purrrrty.

Unbelievable in every way! 10+

Music, movies, surround, 4k picture upscaling, streaming.... need I go on? This unit seems to have no limits, especially paired with the MM7055 AMP and those B&W 702 Series 2 mains, HTM71 center channel, 705 s2 surrounds, and 2, yes 2 of the DB4S Subwoofers! Crystal clear sound, and very well balanced/quiet with my Audioquest cables and Panamax power conditioner. All I need is the IMAX, and I could have my own theater of sorts. LOL. If they had such a thing, I am sure BB would have it.
Ain't America still great! I consider myself fortunate to have the support and knowledge base at the Va Beach Va store (independence location). I can't thank Josh, Joe, Nate, and Mike in management enough for providing the help, knowledge and support I needed to make all of this happen. These folks treat me very well. Keep up the great work guys!
I have enclosed several pics attached to this review. The Salamander "breathable" stereo cabinet houses all of the components. Those Rotel CD players are no joke either.
Please see my comments to the answered question about this product on this webpage, referring to this product.

So the pair includes two cable sets for two different speakers i.e. two floor stands

This 8 foot speaker wire is for 1 (one) speaker. The only other option is to buy the pair of 10 foot cables in which 2 of them come for approx. (not sure I think between $249.99 and 279.99). The 8 foot cord is more or less for center channel speaker. If you need 2 8 foot cables, then buy 2 of the aforementioned. Make sure u get FR (full range) vice the bi-wire configuration.

You wont be sorry you chose these cables.

Tilt or extend your television for maximum viewing enjoyment with this Sanus Advanced Tilt TV wall mount. Able to support up to 150 pounds of weight, this mount can easily handle flat screen televisions up to 90 inches. Click, lock and release on this Sanus Advanced Tilt TV wall mount let you find a viewing angle and secure it.
 

Can I use hollow wall hangers for drywall to install the BLT2 mount? We have metal studs behind drywall in a commercial building. The flat screen tv is not very heavy at all. Thank you!!!

Get Total Tech Sppt. Too much money at stake here! and call the geek squad in. They are responsible of sorts if it falls off the wall at that point.

I like to know how manny watts per channel does this unit drives? I know the $ 3,000 unit drives 140 per. This one has no indication. I am looking to purchase one vs the other, just need to know the difference in power.

I know you didn't ask for all this, but...…...
I am a young 60, and was an audio aficionado in the 80’s and 90’s, where Cerwin Vega and Bose 901’s ruled and big, booming, blow the doors off bass was the norm. Crisp, clean sound and low distortion/noise levels seem to dominate the day. There are of course those that will disagree with my methodology, that would prefer the “all in one” system (receiver), vice going the “separates” route (pre-amp/tuner and amp).
The AV 7705 Pre-Amp/MM 7055 Amp combination have some of the following advantages vice the receiver route. The Amp still gets a little hot during peaks but nothing compared to the pre amp - amp combo unit (receiver). In my opinion, the separates run cooler, quieter, have better audio processors, output transistors, integrated circuitry and distortion levels. The amp also has massive capacitors for energy storage vice the receiver.
Having said all of that, do yourself a favor, I recommend the separates route, if affordable. You will drop an xtra $1199.00 for the AV-7705/MM-7705 configuration, which will give you zero watts per channel from the pre amp (7705) and 140W per channel x5 from the AMP. This is MORE than enough power to drive my Bowers and Wilkins 700 series S2’s, B&W center and rear surrounds. Subwoofer is self-powered, with 2 outputs available on the pre amp. The SR-7013 boasts 165 watts per channel x5. I call it a high dollar rack system, but it is preference.
I complimented my installation with high quality balanced HDMI ULTRA cables (4k) from Audio Quest. Cable quality-very important for audio and video and makes a bigger difference than you think. When I crank this thing, it sounds as if the band is right in front of me. It puts out crisp, clear sound with no distortion at all. The home theater surround sound is unbelievable as well. The only thing I don’t like is the Amp will not shut down remotely, or shut down when the pre amp is switched off.

I couldn’t be happier with this system. Hard to beat a 10. It is as close to the Diamond series that I will ever get, with little to no difference at that price point.

Double-shielding and low-loss functionality decreases the chance of signal or quality loss for data or video transmissions.
