Denon - In-Command 1505W 7.2-Ch. 4K Ultra HD and 3D Pass-Through A/V Home Theater Receiver - Black
This Denon In-Command AVR-X3100W A/V receiver's Bluetooth interface allows pairing with select devices. Includes HDMI 4K Ultra HD and 3D pass-through technologies for compatibility with 3D TVs, Blu-ray players and gaming consoles and 4K Ultra HD TVs.
Great power and sound...but...issues with features
Customer Rating
3.0
The sound from this receiver is phenomenal, set up is very easy, and Denon customer service is great. The ARC is great, very nice doing settings with remote from couch. Based on that it would be 5 stars. However, the main reason getting this receiver was the Bluetooth, USB, wireless features. This is where the 2 stars get knocked off. I use a thumb drive in the USB and it works fine. Then if I use the Bluetooth from my phone, then go back to use the USB, it doesn't work. I would use thumb drive more than Bluetooth, so did a factory reset and the USB with the thumb drive worked fine again. This also supports Apple Airplay, and that worked great. I was playing music from my computer to the receiver. But yet again when I went to use the USB, it didn't function anymore....factory reset....again. Now these features may not be for everyone, so if someone is looking just to use it without these features, it's a 5 star. But that was huge reason I got this. I am definitely glad I got it on sale and not paid full price or I would have returned it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Needed a splitter for the LFE on my subwoofer, this worked just fine and wasn't too expensive.

Right off the bat, I will say, I give it 4-stars for the price I paid. If I paid full price would give 3. With that being said, looking at the other bad reviews, the complaint of the clicking, humming. This also happened to me. The sub was too close to other components, ie. wi-fi cable modem, my computer tower, etc. Once I moved the sub about a foot away, ALL the clicking/humming went away.
Also read about this unit not having enough bass...it is a 5-1/2" sub....it's not a 10"-12" home theater sub... For me, it has GREAT bass for a sub that size. I have to turn the knob on the sub down at times on certain songs. It may be in their computer EQ settings, but there is plenty of bass.
Now, the reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars for the price, connection limitations. I REALLY wish this had a Digital Optical cable in. Ready the description saying you can easily connect game consoles....using RCA jacks??? I would have to use an AV Multi to RCA jacks for my PS3. What a waste. Not sure what year these were released, but I am using a PS3 120GB slim that I got in '09. I would think anything after '10-'11 would have a digital optical in.
All in all, it is not a bad little system for a computer, my fiancee loves it.

I pretty much research and read reviews on any purchases I make on stuff like this. Against my better judgement, I bought this item thinking that 4 stars that it has overall that it would be a good product. WRONG!
Right off the bat, plugging in the power, the blue LED is supposed to flash blue, then once it's paired with an item it stays solid. It did not light up at all. Thought maybe at first it was a bad outlet on my power strip. Tried another outlet that I knew worked, still nothing. HOWEVER, I did open the bluetooth on my phone and it discovered the receiver. I paired it up. Even after pairing, LED still did nothing. I don't need lights, but would like some indication the unit is on...
Also, it says that the signal is good up to 33'. Now it's not a huge issue to me if it cut out at that distance away....BUT I would have my phone sitting RIGHT NEXT to it and it would CONSTANTLY cut out. Not like once every 10 or so minutes....like once every 10 seconds.
This item needs to be pulled from the shelves. It's not even adequate.
As far as how I had this connected, I had it ran with the Digital Optical cable.
This is nothing but a piece of junk.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My open-box did not include a stand. Where can I purchase one?
I would contact LG customer service and say you purchased this TV and the stands weren't included. I am sure they would send a replacement set.

Hence, 4 inputs means 4 components can be hooked up.

Do you have to always watch TV with the 3d glasses
I have never had nor saw a 3D TV, so my question is this: while watching regular TV do you have to wear the 3D glasses? I don't want to buy this TV if I have to constantly wear the glasses.
Yes you need to wear glasses, but being passive 3D, the glasses are very light weight, unlike active 3D glasses that have batteries and are a bit bulkier.
With that being said, for someone who has to wear glasses (as I do), putting these on for an hour & half to 2 hour movie isn't such a big deal.

Is the 60LB7100 compatible with an AC router for wi-fi ?
having trouble connecting to wi-fi ; i have a 5-year old N router, 2.4ghz. someone recommended getting a new AC router but said to make sure the TV is compatible.
It wouldn't be if the router is compatible with the tv. Wi-fi is wi-fi...
It may be the signal isn't strong enough. I run 5+ things from my wi-fi....works fine. Tried using the wi-fi on this tv and Netflix takes forever to load and constantly freezes.
I ended up just running an ethernet for the time being, but I am going to get a cable splitter amplifier to boost the signal so I can get rid of the ethernet cable.
