Good TV
on August 24, 2025
Posted by: Dross
Verified Purchase:Yes
The TV worked quite well. Beautiful picture, it was connected to a 7.1 LG soundbar, so the sound was great too. My complaint is that when I reached around the back to mess with the cords and my neck touched the metal edge, I would get shocked. Most important thing to remember is not let your cat bite the corner, well I suspect he did. Whatever poked the small hole, and it killed the screen.

For large TV's, I highly recommend

Verified Purchase:Yes
With a 77-inch TV, it's best to have them come and set it up. The guys that came knew what they were doing and did tell me what was best for the TV installation. They did a great job. But I will say, I also did my part. I recommend reading the preinstall instructions carefully and doing what it says for a smooth install. I have an old cherry TV hutch bought 20 years ago. Has adjustable width, but not for a 77-inch TV, so I had to modify it for the TV to fit. Took a day. Glad I did it the day before than the day of install.

Works with Google Home.
on August 8, 2025
Posted by: Dross
Verified Purchase:Yes
Beautiful picture, well that's what I paid for. Easy to set-up and use. I didn't care for the remote, it works fine. It's all one color, dull black, for me it's hard to see what button I'm pushing, needs to be back lit. The legs look too small but are strong and the TV does not wobble. This Sony is really a computer with a large screen. Works with Google home, I can turn it on/off, change channels, volume with a nest speaker. You just say, Hey Google and give it a command. Something I use around the house. I bought the Bravia soundbar, perfect package.

I bought this to go with my Bravia 8, 77-inch tv. It's a perfect match. Sound quality is great. It does really sound like surround sound with a beautiful rich sound. One thing I wish it had, was Wi-Fi ability. To be able to use it as a stand-alone speaker. I'm very happy about this choice.

Great Blender

Posted by: Dross
Verified Purchase:Yes
This blender is the best I've ever owned. It's so easy to use and clean. I love the Blend Sense feature—just two buttons, Power and Blend Sense, and it takes care of everything. My last blender always had a hot motor smell, but not this one. The blades are sharp, three layers high, and the whole thing is simple to clean.

I did buy this for the Wi-Fi 7 and it will work with my other eero units. My new Surface Pro 11 is wifi7 and I upgraded my Desktop to wifi7. They are right that the speeds and distance are improved over the wifi6e. The design is good and it's a solid unit. The cost seemed high, but I did buy this while it was on sale.

Meet the second-gen Nest Hub from Google,~ the center of your helpful home. Stay entertained in the kitchen with shows, videos, and music. In the living room, control your compatible lights, TVs, and other smart devices with a tap or your voice. And in the bedroom, Nest Hub can help you wake up easier with a Sunrise Alarm.
 

I have two Nest Audio speakers that are paired, I now added this Nest Hub 7" display in the same room. I learned to set the Audio pair to play the music, but how do I or can I set the Hub to be the only microphone to "Hey Google" too.

The Bose TV Speaker is a small soundbar that clarifies speech and improves overall TV sound. Inside there are two full-range drivers angled to deliver wide, spatial sound, while the center tweeter specifically focuses on clarifying speech. And built-in Dolby decoding enhances the audio capabilities of your TV Speaker to deliver a more realistic and satisfying listening experience. Designed with simplicity in mind, a single connection to your TV has you up and running in no time. This connection can be either an optical audio cable (included) or an HDMI cable (sold separately). At just over 2~ (5 cm) tall, this TV Speaker is small enough to fit just about anywhere. Place it in front of your TV or mount it to the wall. Plus small LED lights on the front turn on and/or change color when certain features are enabled or when the volume is adjusted. The Bose TV Speaker also has HDMI-CEC, which allows the TV and soundbar to communicate when connected by an HDMI cable. So when you turn the TV on, the soundbar will automatically turn on too, and you can even continue using your current TV remote to control the volume of the soundbar. However, the Bose TV Speaker also has its own remote. On it, you can pair your Bluetooth device to wirelessly stream your favorite music or podcasts, enable Dialogue Mode to further elevate center vocals, or add a bass boost for some extra depth. And the Bose TV Speaker is Roku TV Ready certified. Meaning, it~s designed to work seamlessly with a Roku TV. When connected to a Roku TV via an HDMI cable, you~ll enjoy smooth, automatic setup, easy access to the TV Speaker sound settings in the Roku TV on-screen menu, and compatibility with the Roku TV remote. If you~re looking for even more bass or just want to expand your system, you can add a subwoofer for more theater-quality home theater sound. The Bose TV Speaker requires a wired connection and is compatible with the Bose Bass Module 500 or 700 (Bose Bass Module Connection Cable sold separately).
 

I just installed my speaker today and neither my TV remote (TCL) or Apple TV remote will control the volume. I must use the speaker's remote to control/adjust volume. Is there a way to correct this?

I had that problem, I solved it by buying a Logitech Harmony remote. It's programed on line at the web site, no codes to enter and it will control everything from one remote. It really made my life easier. This may sound like an ad, but mine has lasted over 5 years and been used with several TVs, speakers, Blu-ray players.

How long is the DP cable that is included with this monitor? Samsung's website only lists the power cable's length (1.5m).

It does come with a cable, but too short for my needs. I chose to mount mine on a flexible desk mount and not the stand it came with.

Watch 4K and HDTV network shows for free with this TERK indoor antenna. With the ability to pick up signals in a 360-degree radius, this multidirectional antenna doesn~t require frequent adjustment, and the flat design is aesthetically pleasing. This TERK indoor antenna has a digital amplifier to clear up weak signals for optimal reception.
 

I have Trek indoor with amp. All stations lose signal. Do you have a higher gain amp?

I found an amp that was for a outdoor antenna, the kind that attaches to the pole. It brings in a better signal. I have come to learn that there is no perfect indoor antenna. The thing to remember, location of the antenna is the most important and don't believe anything that's written on the box.

I have hooked up my TERK antenna and have not gotten any channels! What can I do besides returning the TERK for something else!

For me, I bought an amp designed for a outdoor antenna, they are stronger

Will this work without being near a window? My set is mounted on a wall that not near windows.

there is no perfect indoor antenna, placement is everything. you will have to move it around to find the best place. Good Luck

What's the height range on the adjustable stand? I only have 22" of clearance , but the product specifications say this is 23" tall, which I have a hard time believing, I guess that might at max stand height?

The stand this monitor came with is big and the monitor wobbly. After I bought this monitor, I bought a mount that attached to the desk, and gave more flexibity to the monitor, if possible, this may be the best option for you as well
