I was running 14 year old JBL's for a 5.1 system. I was looking for an upgrade. I started researching and Definitive Technology kept coming up.
So, I went in for a listening. I was impressed. But, I knew that the acoustics in the Magnolia room was a lot better than mine.
I purchased the 5.1 system although the towers have subwoofers built in I wanted the stand alone sub.
With the stand alone sub and built ins in the towers I'm getting a remarkable sound.
Now I'm setup and enjoy the sound immensely
I would recommend.

I was looking for a small TV for the garage. The Insignia filled the bill. Great high Def picture. I connected it to a OTA antenna and received excellent picture and sound. I would buy again

What's not so great: Connections
My tv and receiver have HDMI ARC connections. When connected this way you do not get sound from the hub, such as Netflix. The manual does not explain connecting to a Home theater system. After talking to 6 Samsung techs whom all had different answers. I was about to bring the TV back. One tech stated that the sound from the Hub could only be heard from the TV speakers. Another stated make all my connections directly to the TV. This did not make since. My Onkyo Has HDMI connections for all sources. (2013 model). I was told by another tech to connect an optical cable. If HDMI ARC is a pass through system, why?. The optical cable worked. It would be a better experience If the Samsung techs were on the same train. So, I go back to BestBuy and the sales person states that I should not have to use an optical because of the ARC.
My next purchase will be connected to a home theater system before purchasing.

Verizon says I need an HDTV for use without a cable box

Verizon says I need an HDTV for use without a cable box. I'd like to use this in my Childs Room without purchasing an extra cable box. Does anyone know if this TV has any problems with that. I guess is the fiber optics factor.
I have mine connected to a Over The Air (OTA) antenna and I'm picking up 73 channels 20 or more are High def
