This is the second of these VIZIO bars I have bought. The price was incredible so I was skeptical that such a small product would produce sound quality was well as my Samsung soundbar. But it was so easy to set up and such good quality sound that I bought a second--at an even better Best Buy price! I have installed this one too for our kid's basement hangout, and it is superb. For a quality, budget soundbar I cannot recommend this VIZIO highly enough!

The Sonos system is stunning. After years of clumsy wiring and all the issues with networking, the Internet is fast enough to provide excellent sound throughout the house. The choices are better than any radio, and the audio is outstanding. This is the third speaker we have added and we will probably continue to add more for more distant parts of the house.

This is our second Apple TV. I bought the basic version again because we use Harmony remotes and the additional functions were not important. Although the same model, this newer one appears to work more quickly than the first one we bought (five years ago). We also have a Roku for the game room. It would be hard to choose between the two, but for me the clincher is the smooth interface between Apple TV and iCloud, where a lot of our videos and photos are stored.

This antenna is excellent if you are lucky enough to be in a good reception area, without too many trees, very thick walls and in good weather. It picks up a couple of PBS stations an one of the local broadcast networks, but quality is uneven for a few more. When the weather is stormy, forget it. This could largely be due to the position of our house and TVs.

 Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Mohu - Leaf 50 Amplified Indoor HDTV Antenna with 60-Mile Range - Black/White
Launched in 2011, this design established the trend of paper-thin TV antennas. Universally compatible with all HDTVs, the Mohu Leaf 50 offers the benefits and powerful performance of our notorious design coupled with the Jolt Switch USB in-line amplifier to reach a 60-mile range. Control TV signal amplification in real time with a simple ON/OFF switch. When it’s "on", TV signals are increased for clearer picture and sound, sometimes receiving channels beyond your antenna’s standard range. When it’s "off", amplification is bypassed while TV signals are still filtered from FM and cellular interference. When plugged into your TV’s USB port, the amplifier only draws power when the TV is on, saving energy, or use the included USB power adapter with any standard wall outlet. Perfect for suburban areas, compact living spaces, single-TV homes, dorm rooms, RVs…take this efficient antenna just about anywhere you go. Easy to set up and easy on the eyes. Multi-directional UHF and Hi-VHF elements receive TV signals from both sides, so you can show either side of the black or white reversible design or paint the Leaf antenna for a customized look. Note: The range of this antenna will vary greatly depending on the height, power, and frequency of signals coming from the TV tower, as well as the height of the antenna installation, the terrain, and obstacles between your home and the broadcast towers. Find your TV towers and channels by using our free Antenna Point app on your android or iOS device.
 
Good if you can find the right antenna location

When you can find a position with good reception, and when the weather is not stormy, this antenna is quite amazing. It finds many more stations than I had expected, and the HD quality is superb. The problem arises if you cannot position the antenna near a window, or if you live in a house that has thick walls. Also, when there is a storm you will be lucky to find much service.

After trying two weaker routers, this one finally did the job. We have an old house with thick walls, so wireless Internet did not do well, but this router does get the signal almost everywhere on both floors.

This small external drive is an ideal way to solve the problem of large album folders for iPhoto and Aperture users. It is very fast and I was able to export my photo libraries quite quickly. When I am out of space on the hard drive, I will then be able to delete the old folders on that disk.
Well made and perfectly matched to the appearance of my iMac.

how much does it cost to put it on a old TV. Because iam buying the amazon fire stick.

I don't think so. We have not been able to integrate our Samsung and Sonos soundbars. Could be that there is a way but I can't figure it out.

Can I use it to save data directly from Apple apps not running on I Cloud or I Drive?

It works with my Aperture and iPhoto that are not running on iDrive or iCloud. I don't know about others but I don't see why not. My Passport seems fully compatible with OS 10.x (Yosemite).
