I also bought one for my new iPhone SE. Highly recommedomundo!

We have an older doggie that is coming up on 16 years of age and we love our pooch but my family says he can "smell" and since he hangs out in one room with us I bought this for it's filterizationalizing powers.
And as I said, it flat out WORKS! That's all that needs to be said. Highly recommended indeed!

I have to admit to going through phones due to a slight physical handicap that causes me to fall sometimes. And when I fall, the last thing on my mind is protecting my phone.
I've broken a few, believe me. I could not find an Otterbox for my Z3 Play and so that along with Android Auto problems prompted me to purchase the new iPhone SE and immeidately bought this case for it.
I have an Otterbox case for my work cell and it has NEVER been broken when I fall. I have fallen twice with this new Otterbox for my iPhone SE and the phone and case are both as new.
Highly recommended? Yuppers!

A great film made better buy the excellent 4K transfer. Sound is also very, very, very, very good. :-)
I took a chance that this film would be better in 4K (I have the Blu Ray) and it is. An example of an older film being transferred to 4K and NOT being better is the wonderful movie, "Groundhog Day".
This version of "Gladiator" is worth watching over and over. So then, highly recommended? Yup!

Made for TV but good enough to have in my collection. Excellent film based on a Steven King novella or so I think...Think "Nosferatu".

Not as good as the 1967 musical but then that's to be expected. However, this film is far better than the Eddie Murphy versions which were just plain stupid. This version has it's moments with the picture being set in the appropriate time period but with the animals talking as people do today. That part was DUMB.
The picture and sound on the 4K is exemplary!

The Pioneer GM-DX874 four-channel amplifier will deliver up to 150 watts RMS to each of your front and rear speakers for powerful music. Highly efficient Class D technology keeps this powerful amp running as cool as it looks, and allows for a compact chassis that fits in a lot of out of the way spaces. The frequency response of this amplifier stretches up to 50,000 Hz, for Hi-Res Audio Certified playback. Pioneer uses high-grade electronic parts and gold-plated RCA connections to ensure maximum performance. Speaker-level inputs allow you to install this amp in a factory system with no RCA connections. The amplifier switches its input mode automatically when it detects the high-level signal, eliminating the need to run a turn-on lead to your receiver or fuse box. Built-in high- and low-pass filters let you adjust the sound for your vehicle's interior, whether you're driving speakers or subs.
 

Does this amplifier make a loud "POP!" when turning the audio system off or on, or does it have relays to prevent this annoying problem. I ask because the last time I put an amp in my truck (albeit years ago), the speakers did just that.

Would anyone care to remark on how Apple CarPlay is compared to Android Auto? I have the latter and it kinda SUCKS as it often doesn't recognize the phone is plugged in or when I speak to it it will turn the radio UP LOUD and not hear me, etc? Thx!

Listen to your favorite albums with this Onkyo DX-C390(B) 6-disc CD player that features Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry technology for clear, brilliant audio. The high-precision multibit D/A converter delivers high-quality sound.
 

Is this CD compatible with a Sonos Port? If so, do I need any other components to play CDs and hear the music through my SONOS system of speakers?

If your "SONOS Port" is a simple standard input jack, I would say yes. On my HEOS setups, I simply choose the input of CD and hit play and the music goes to whatever speaker(s) I have set up.

Yes, I am unfamiliar with SONOS but I do think the port you speak of must surely be a standard input jack. All the best!

Built-in HEOS technology lets you enjoy your favorite music anywhere throughout your home and connect to other HEOS-enabled speakers.

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) - (2021)
Apple Watch Series 7 (GPS + Cellular) 45mm Midnight Aluminum Case with Midnight Sport Band - Midnight (Verizon) - (2021)
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.
