As a seasoned citizen getting closer and closer to being able to retire, I admit to wanting to downsize a bit. But, not in the case of quality.
Along with a pair of the HEOS5S2 speakers I bought a pair of these beauties. Setup was once again, easy and I replaced a massive pair of JBL towers and Martin Logan powered sub in a bedroom turned listening area with just ONE of these speakers.
Pandora? Check!
SiriusXM? Check!
Amazon Music Unlimited Ultra HD? Check!
The Great American Songbook
station out of the Netherlands? Check!
station out of the Netherlands? Check!
Music on my phone via either WiFI (preferred)
or Blootoof? Check!
or Blootoof? Check!
Music off any of my computers? Check!
A bazillion internet radio stations from around the world? Check!
And more! Don't have a Denon HEOS equipped AV Reciever (mine is the 4300 model!) ? Not a problem because each of the speakers in the HEOS family can be used as a standalone unit or grouped however you desire them to be via the easy to use HEOS application!
I am thoroughly pleased with both of my HEOS 7HS2 speakers and like all my Denon products, I highly recommend them.

...Are EXCELLENT!
Look. I am a big fan of internet radio and streaming music and I was all set buy some of the wonderful Bose Soundtouch series for my home, but...
..But I already own a Denon HEOS equipped AV Receiver and two HEOS 1 HS2 speakers. These 5 HS2 models are just as capable but with a superior compliment of powered drivers. The sound is most excellent and even more important, they don't upset my wife with their looks in the living room.
They play my Pandora, SiriusXM and a bunch of internet radios stations that cost nothing and add enjoyment to my life. I recently started a subscription to Amazon Music HD and Ultra HD and all the HEOS HS2 series are capable of playing these lossless files and I can attest that said files are reproduced via these HEOS speakers superbly!
So then...What more can you ask? Well for starters each speaker can be used alone or in a group. Each speaker doesn't need anything other than electricity and the app on your phone. I have a Denon HEOS equpped speaker but it is NOT required to use these speakers! That means you get the benefits of these excellent speakers as standalone units.
Yup. You can even play different stations on different speakers in different rooms at the same time. If you choose to play the same music to all speakers throughout your home they are all (in my case at least!) perfectly synchronized. No lag as it uses your WiFI not blootoof. But you can use blootoof if you want and it works just fine with the exception of possible lag when it's to more than one speaker at a time.
Setup was a bit time consuming but that was due to a problem connecting via bluetooth as the manual asks you to do, so I went the other route and connected directly to a wireless extender via Cat 6 cable and BAZINGA! Superb-A-Mundo! It really is that easy-peasy-macn-n-cheesy. I highly recommend these and all HEOS products.

I bought this for my brother and his wife as it is one of their favorite movies. I already have a copy and like me, they think the world of this film.
Two words - Cary Grant.
Skip the ridiculous remake, "The Preacher's Wife", that film can't hold a candle to the original and that in spite of what I heard is an excellent performance by Mr. Washington.
This film has great performances all around and the film exudes the Christmas spirit back when Hollyweird was still Hollywood. Highly recommended?

...I keep having to plug and unplug the USB to get the phone to work!
That may be a problem with the Maestro interface (and I have spoken with other Mustang owners that have not suffered this insufferable problem!) but I know it is not the phone as it works just fine with my Dodge Ram. I cannot call and it refuses to read text messages which does not happen with my Android Auto capable OEM radio in my Ram. It is very frustrating.
But otherwise, the unit is excellent! If anyone else has this problem and knows what the heck is going on, I hope to read it here. I am getting ready to return the unit and upgrade to a more expensive model just to get this problem to go away!
This phone problem is the ONLY reason I cannot recommend an otherwise great product. Maybe if I upgrade to a more expensive unit I will be able to use it as it is intended?! I like Kenwood but this radio is driving me nutso, LOL!

Because I have well over a thousand titles from the 1930s on to the present in a variety of formats from Laser Disc to VHS to S-VHS to DVD, Blu Ray and now UHD Blu Ray.
I have the 50th Anniversary Edition of this same film (from the universally regard year as the BEST for movies, 1939) on Laser Disc and this version is even better!
It used to be that the Wizard of Oz came on TV once a year and that night was so special that no matter where we were or what we were doing, our family would stop to watch this gorgeous classic. From the sepia toned opening to the gorgeous color appear when the door to her home opens onto Munchkin Land, this film does not nothing short of warm the heart and soul.
Buy it.

Look, there's not a lot to this review other than this little device takes the frustration out of my particular cell phone by allowing me to PLUG IN A PAIR OF WIRED headphones! :-)
One of the dumbest and more aggravating things to happen in the world of 'phones is the disappearance of the min-jack for wired headphones. Stupid but I get why they did it.
To annoy us.

This is just a fun film. It's escapist fantasy and if you go in realizing this, then it will be fun, fun, FUN! The picture and sound are quite good and the story and dialog or capable enough of keep you engaged. I liked it better than the two previous Hellboy films, both of which I own.

Samsung - Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G 512GB (Unlocked)
Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is crafted so you don’t need to choose between video and photo. With a single tap, you can pull super-clear stills straight from high-resolution 8K video. Or if you’re looking to capture stunning photos, the 108MP camera feels like you’ve brought your own professional studio with you. Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, designed to be epic in every way.
Does Samsung in general and this model in particular work well with Android Auto? My Motorola Z3 Play is awful in this regard and I am thinking of returning to Apple because of that. Thanks!

Motorola - Edge 256GB (Unlocked) 2021 - Nebula Blue
The Motorola edge is the perfect combination of a high-quality 6.8” Max Vision display that lets you watch shows on the largest display in its class. The insanely fast 144Hz refresh rate looks super smooth. Plus, true-to-life colors with improved brightness and contrast.
Does this work with Android Auto or not? The reason i ask is that I have a Motorla Z3 Play that doesn't play well with Android Auto at ALL. I had an iPhone and may go back but want to know about this model and Android Auto. Thanks!

Denon - AVR-S660H (75W X 5) 5.2-Ch. with HEOS 8K Ultra HD HDR Compatible AV Home Theater Receiver with Alexa - Black
The Denon AVR-S660H 5.2 Channel AVR delivers extraordinary sound quality from music, movies, and games. Ushering in a new standard for fully immersive, high-resolution home theater and listening, this AV Receiver supports Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Surround, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS Neo:6 and delivers an unparalleled audio output. Featuring 6 HDMI inputs and 1 HDMI output, the AVR-S660H incorporates an advanced 8K video section that supports 8K/60Hz or 4K/120Hz video pass-through., BT.2020 Wide Color Gamut, High Dynamic Range (HDR), 4:4:4 Pure Color sub-sampling, along with support for 3D content. The AVR also allows high-resolution file playback with FLAC, ALAC, and WAV support, as well as DSD 2.8/5.6MHz. Built-in HEOS technology lets you enjoy your favorite music anywhere throughout your home and connect to other HEOS-enabled speakers. This high-performance AVR allows effortless and flexible voice control on all the major voice agents like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Josh.ai, Apple Siri and AirPlay 2. Play music or control your home appliances, light, and speakers optimally from any corner of your house with just a voice command. Featuring wireless streaming through built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and HEOS, this AVR allows you to seamlessly play music from your favorite streaming apps like Spotify, Tidal, TuneIn, Deezer, and Pandora.
What kind of subwoffer do I need for bass and how do I hook it up too hear it
There are two (2) SUBWOOFER pre-outs on the rear of the unit. You will need a self-powered subwoofer (they come in a variety of sizes and power outputs!) for this and an RCA type connector cable (all of my new subs came with a cable in their box) that has one male end plug for the AVR subwoofer output and either one or two male end plugs for the input on the subwoofer(s). Once installed, go into your AVR's menu to set up for the subwoofer(s). It really is easy to do and as I said, you can hook up two subs (again, if you unit has two!) if that is something you desire. I have two 10 inch subs on my home theater setup from my Denon AVR-X4300H that I bought at my local Best Buy a couple of years ago (Two 10 inch subs!) For my new Denon AVR-S660H I am using a Martin-Logan 10 inch Sub that I also bought a few years ago at Best Buy and it works great with this AVR. All the best!

Does this reciver have a center speaker hook up??
Nope! It is 2.2 Stereo (meaning 2 channels and up to 2 powered subwoofers). For that (i.e., the center speaker) you would need to move up the Denon line to one of their excellent AVR models!

I just got this model but when I plug my DVD player to phono input the sound is distorted. Is there something wrong on it? The cd and the other input is fine but I have to turn up the volume every time.
The phono input is designed for the low output of a record player (not using a built-in phono-preamp!) so you should be using one of the HDMI inputs for your DVD player (it will be marked on the HDMI Inputs as "2 DVD").
Doing so will pass video and audio from your DVD to your DRA-800H and from there via the output to your TV. marked as ".Monitor"

Apple Watch Series 7 (GPS + Cellular) 45mm Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Band - Midnight (Verizon)
The largest, most advanced Always-on Retina display yet makes everything you do with your Apple Watch Series 7 bigger and better. Series 7 is the most durable Apple Watch ever built, with an even more crack-resistant front crystal. Advanced features let you measure your blood oxygen level,¹ take an ECG anytime,² and access mindfulness and sleep tracking apps. You can also track dozens of workouts, including new tai chi and pilates.
Does it connect to your current phone? or does it need its own line?
As it is marked as GPS + Cellular, it has the necessary hardware to have its own cellphone line. It just means you don't need to carry your iPhone with you to make a call via this watch. I have a GPS only Apple Watch and when the iPhone is nearby and connected via Wifi?Bluetooth I can answer the call via my watch. Kinda sorta like Dick Tracy's 2-Way wrist TV. Well...kinda. Not sorta. LOL!
Either version of this watch will serve you well. So far, I don't really miss not having a watch that is also a standalone cell phone as I have my iPhone with me most of the day. And yes. The extra phone line for the watch will cost your whatever you carrier charges for another line.

Insignia™ - 33-Lb. Portable Ice Maker
Only at Best BuyChill drinks at your next party with this Insignia portable ice maker. The compact design fits easily on the counter, while an included scoop and basket make it easy to fill drinks and empty leftover ice. With a freezing time of seven to 13 minutes, depending on cube size, this Insignia portable ice maker ensures you're never out of ice.
Is this portable Ice Maker easy to clean? We've had issues with a similar product in the past that made it not worth the hassle.
I have no clue if there is an official procedure but...When I am done for the day making my ice, I simply turn it off, unplug it and face the drain plug toward the sink, remove the cap and let it drain. I then dry out the easily reached areas and let it sit with the lid open for a couple of hours. That's it. It seems to work for me and I use mine a LOT.

Ummmmm...I would NOT leave anything like an electric fan to be soaked by rain. Otherwise, my son has used ours outside while washing his truck. And no, he does not get the fan wet too, LOL! It is an electric device. Electricity and water do not mix. It is however, an excellent fan!

Do you have to plug it in a wall socket.
