I had an opportunity to add rear speakers to my A/V setup. I wanted a decent full range speaker and after listening at Magnolia these sounded like they'd fit the bill.
This proved to be the case. I'm very happy with them, used in conjunction with a Definitive Tech Sound bar and wireless sub-woofer

I've been using Harmony Remote for years. The Ultimate One is my latest upgrade as my 888 died. I am now using 3 of these.
This series is by far the easiest to program and update. The online software talks you through setup, you just have to know your equipment and what inputs you're using. Setup should take no more then 20-30 minutes.

Only at Best BuyMount your flat-panel TV to the wall easily with this tilting mount that features a locking mechanism for secure installation and a fingertip tilt that allows for smooth movement and optimal viewing.
A nice, simple wall mount

It's a wall mount, not much to evaluate here.
The TV is still on the wall and tilts the way it's supposed to.
That's all I need it to do.

Returned after 3 days - Crashes with Chromecast
Customer Rating
1.0
I bought this on a Thursday returned it on Sunday.
I discovered that this crashes with Chromecast. the only solution I could find on the web to root it, something I would not do since it would void the warranty. I spoke with Samsung twice and there suggestions did not work.
Sunday I spent 4 hrs with the Samsung Rep at BB. He was on the phone with Samsung. He did a soft reset followed by a hard reset. Nothing stopped the issue.
The final Samsung opinion was the problem was not the tablet, it was the Chromecast. They offered to sell me a $60 dongle to replace my $35 Chromecast.
I returned the Galaxy and I have ordered a Nexus9.

What's great about it: Easy to mount on wall and set up.
What's not so great: Haven't found a problem yet.
This TV was a replacement for a 46" LG. I needed a larger TV and LG didn't make a 70", so I gave the Sharp a try. No regrets.
Set up was easy. I was able to use the same Omni mount (needed a new support cable) I used with the LG. The TV interfaced with my Yamaha receiver nicely for surround sound and I added a Chromecast for streaming media.

What's great about it: Daniel Craig hits his stride
I've been a bond fan since the Dr. No hit the screen. However, I was not crazy about Craig as Bond until Skyfall. Craig finally nailed the part.
Bond was taken back to his roots. The superhuman persona was cut way back and Bond became human again.

Very enjoyable film. Excellent film quality, but nothing less would be acceptable for a Bond film.
