First Rate disc
on December 7, 2021
Posted by: DouginDallas
Verified Purchase:Yes
The rating it should be noted is for the disc transfer, not necessarily the actual film (which was by no means a poor film). But the video, which was always quite dark, really makes use of the 4K resolution, bringing out detail that otherwise would be smeary or undifferentiated shadows. The audio is immersive and impressive as well. If you enjoyed this first in the reboot of Godzilla, this disc will impress and delight.

Classy revamp of a classic
on November 16, 2021
Posted by: DouginDallas
Verified Purchase:Yes
There’s nothing to criticize with this very welcome upgrade to one of the best WWII adventure tales, with its terrific cast and impressive effects. As fine as the picture quality is, the remixed Atmos sound is the standout improvement over the old Blu-ray. Any remastering of these worthy titles when done this well should be rewarded with a purchase, to encourage more of the same.

Just - wow! Great remastering job.
on June 22, 2021
Posted by: DouginDallas
Verified Purchase:Yes
These remastered discs are of stellar reference quality and can really show off what a great audio/video set up can accomplish. The films themselves are busy action popcorn flicks reminiscent of old serial adventures updated to modern technological standards, and are great fun within their framework. The steelbook makes for a nice presentation.

Excellent unit with superior protection

Finally a robust protective case that allows for consistent wireless charging - the current is only so strong, and it was a challenge to fine the right combination of protection and current pass ability. This unit fits the bill.

Compact, easy to use charging unit
on May 7, 2021
Posted by: DouginDallas
Verified Purchase:Yes
Small wireless charger that easily fits almost anywhere and creates minimal intrusion in the space used. Decent sensitivity putting out enough signal to charge cell phones, though some thicker cases may prevent an immediate connection, requiring fussing with exact placement; more the case’s issue than this reasonably priced charger.

Great little flash drive with a very small profile. Never gets in the way and no need to worry about inadvertently having it pulled out. Large capacity. Some great things come in a small package.

Sturdy and well designed
on May 1, 2021
Posted by: DouginDallas
Verified Purchase:Yes
Robust and tight fitting phone case with a clip that leads to peace of mind that the new iPhone is protected from damage under most circumstances if dropped. The only real downside is the inability of wireless chargers to connect and charge the unit. The two tried so far are not able to detect the phone except at best infrequently. Not a deal killer, just a minor trade off.

Enjoy movies and other streaming content with this Sony 4K Blu-ray disc player. Built-in Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity allow for media to be streamed in high quality, while a super quick start mode minimizes fuss during use. This Sony 4K Blu-ray disc player has two HDMI outputs for simultaneous use with multiple screens.
I noticed there’s no display of movie run time or anything on the front of the player. Is there a way to turn on a display on the front of the player?
Only at Best BuyEnjoy versatile audio with this Insignia all-in-one stereo shelf system. It has an FM radio for listening to your favorite stations, and its Bluetooth connectivity lets you wirelessly sync with compatible devices. Listen privately via the headphone jack on this Insignia all-in-one stereo shelf system, which has 20W RMS left and right channels for immersive surround sound.
I have found that the wire antenna is not powerful enough but am having trouble finding another antenna that has the unusual connection on the rear of the radio. Has anyone found a alternative antenna that works well?
Any F connector (round with flush pin that pushes onto the round connector in back) will also work, not just the odd shaped connector that is supplied (though this one was sufficient for my reception area to receive classical WRR in Dallas, really the only station I was interested in). If BB doesn’t carry one, the usual online suspects will offer ones of greater length, though even those can be problematic depending on your distance from transmission towers. AM isn’t an issue since this unit doesn’t provide an AM band.

Why can I not get the Radio or the CD player to come up on the screen? Tried several times? The time was simple to get.
The input description should appear according to what is selected. Press the power button. If radio is chosen the station number should appear after it reads FM briefly; CD, BT (Bluetooth), Line In, USB, all appear sequentially by pressing the Source button on the remote, or the button immediately to the right of the front panel power button. If that doesn’t happen the unit is likely in need of repair.
