4k The Lost City Movie
on July 29, 2022
Posted by: IzzyC
Verified Purchase:Yes
Good 4K transfer, but of course, it's a newer movie. Sound was good, LFE came through well during action scenes. Wonderfully playful with some action and comedy all mixed in. Sandra Bullock as a glammed disco ball thrown into the jungle was hilarious. Check it out!

Great 4K transfer and sound. Action really comes through on the subwoofers...always go dual! No Atmos on my system yet, so can't comment on that. Overall, fun movie to watch! Will there be a Part2? We'll see...

Just what I needed to connect my cable box directly to my powered speakers, listening to the music channels without having to leave the TV on. Problem solved. Side note: Don't forget to take the small clear plastic protective caps off the tips before making your connections.

A good one to have in your Ironman "Steelbook " collection. 4k transfer was good, soundmix was good, LFE came through like a punch in the gut during the battle sequences. Dual subs...bring the action home!

4K transfer was good, action sequences sounded great in TrueHD 7.2. Dual subs really capture the chest pounding action of this film. Car sequences were great. A good one to have in the "Action" section of a collection.

4K Pacific Rim

Verified Purchase:Yes
Nice 4K transfer...but the sound...the LFE was awesome! Gave my dual subs a work out, especially during the fight scenes. My set up is 7.2, no Atmos, so I cant comment on that. But overall, sound mix was good for me. 4k really brought out the visual sequences, colors and fx.

4K The Sword and the Sorcerer
on April 8, 2022

Verified Purchase:Yes
Good transfer, but "grainy". It's an old film, so some adjustments on my tv settings helped soften it up somewhat. Sound was fine, but not really mixed for todays Atmos set ups. Great for any collection of old tales of fantasy and magic. Slip cover looks great alongside my autographed picture of Richard Lynch as "King Cromwell"...

4k Mortal Engines Review

Verified Purchase:Yes
Not what I expected, but an interesting "Steam Punk" type future story. 4k transfer was good, LFE channel, wow! The giant "city" machines rolling across the land will give your subs a work out, duals rule! No Atmos in my setup, so I can't comment on that. Overall surround mix was good on my 7.2 setup.

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!
