4K Dune 2021
on October 1, 2022
Posted by: IzzyC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow...I remember how obscure the original was. This new version is great! The 4K transfer, the color tones and the sound! So much LFE I picked up the soundtrack! This will put multiple subs to the test. Can not comment on ATMOS, I have an older Denon, waiting on the 2023 receivers to come out. This is definitely one to have in a collection.

4K 13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI
on September 29, 2022
Posted by: IzzyC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Wow! What a film based on true events! The 4K transfer was great and the sound was good! The LFE was intense and pushed my subwoofers quite a bit...was the LFE as intense as Hacksaw Ridge? I think the battleship blasts in Hacksaw had more impact, at least in my set up and I'm running Dual SVS PB 2000 PRO's...but overall, 13 Hours was great to watch!

Great 4K transfer and sound. Not what I expected, only knew of this character from the older animated series. Good action and LFE. Can't comment for Atmos. Im sure certain scenes felt very "immersive" in Atmos.

4K IMAX Journey to Space

Not bad, but film is s bit older and is "grainy", showing its age in the 4K transfer. Sounds good. A nice one to introduce future scientists and space explorers to the frontiers of space.

Good 4K transfer and sound. Jack Black is fun to watch, good one for his fans, different, quirky, but funny all around.

Good 4K and sound. Not what I expected but a good Viking genre film, Pathfinder is a good one to pair it with in a box set.

One awesome classic horror movie way overdue for a 4K transfer! This may be tame by today's standards but sent shivers up plenty spines in its day! Great sound, can't comment on Atmos. Waiting for the 2023 AVR's to come out! SCARY!!!!

Great 4k transfer, the extended version is much better. Awesome LFE bass! Especially the big action and fight scenes! No Atmos on my system yet, so I can't comment on that. Overall, a good one for the collection.

Get wireless surround sound with this Rocketfish wireless rear speaker kit. The wireless sender and receiver transmit high-quality audio from your home theater receiver to your rear speakers over a radio frequency communication link. This Rocketfish wireless rear speaker kit is easy to set up and gives you surround sound without the tangle of cables.
 

Would switching the speaker wire that comes with this speaker kit to 16 gauge, copper wire improve the sound?

Hi! I have the previous version AND this newer version, with the red/black speaker wires that came with them attached to my Denon AVR and have never had any sound quality issues on that end. I use Monster EZ Strip 16 gauge speaker wire with my Martin Logan MLT2 shelf speakers on the Rocketfish receiver end, and for all my speakers, and have not experienced any sound quality issues. That being said, I don't know if changing the speaker wire will make it "sound" better. Clean, tight connections always help. There are forums I've used to learn more about speaker placement and calibration that have helped me improve the sound quality in my set up. Hope that helps!

Will this work with a denon recover and Harmon kardon banquet speakers, I’m trying to not run wires under carpet. Thanks you ...

I have a Denon receiver paired to Martin Logan MLT2 speakers and it works fine. For my set up, I made sure to set the Rocketfish volume level knob on the back of the little receiver that connects to the speakers to middle or LESS. Use the Denon receiver's speaker set up to make any necessary adjustments to the speaker level when doing calibration. If you hear any distortion, dial it down,, a little bit at a time until it sounds right. Hope that helps!
