The first and third installments are the best with the 2nd coming in "third" place and the "Indiana Jones and the Crystal Cathedral" coming in last. It was still great to see Indy and Marion together and not even that goofball wack-job Chia-pet Laboof couldn't destroy the joy in that union! LOL!
Picture and sound on all transfers are exemplary! I bought a set for me and one for my brother and his most excellent wife!
So then, HIGHLY RECOMMENDAMUNO!
Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

Look, they are for Dolby Atmos encoded films. The work just fine, look good doing so and were an upgrade to a pair of Atmos speakers that didn't look as good and were not as well designed.
Highly recommended indeed!

It's too golly-gee-whiz SHORT and is therefor useless to me. My fault really, I thought I was buying the 3.3 foot version again.
I will cut this junque into pieces and trash it and just use the 3.3 foot cable I also bought. This one is ridiculously unusable for me and no...I don't want to give it away.
I should have paid attention to what I was ordering, LOL! :-) I can be such a maroon sometimes! So NO freaking way I would recommend this too-short-for-anything-I-would-care-to-charge-on-it cable.
I gave the 3.3 foot cable 5 stars. Yeah, it's the same cable but much more useful in the real world. AGAIN - It is my own fault for not paying attention and so I've paid the price and will trash this useless thing. If you have a use for such a stupid-short cable, then by all means, it is a five star item.
I don't. :-)

Is far more useful than the dumb 1.6 foot cable I accidentally purchased. That one is a joke and I will just cut it into pieces and throw it away. This one is a keeper!!
No...Really. I am trashing the short 1.6 foot cable and keeping this one because it is far more useful. :-)

This iPhone from fApple actally works very, very well. I have had noting but trouble from my Motorola Z3 Play and Android Auto. I recently had Best Buy install a new audio system in my Mustang that works with either Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and the former just did NOT work well at all with my Z3 Play.
So what to do? I changed cables, I waited for updates, I put up with Android Auto not even recognizing my phone was there until I asked my daughter about her iPhone and CarPlay.
Via CarPlay in my Dodge Ram (I have not yet tested it in my Mustang but when I do I shall edit this review to reflect that experience) this iPhone does what I ask of it. I ask it to call my wife and it calls my wife. I ask it to play music via Pandora, SiriusXM or Amazon Ultra HD Music and it does.
Every time.
So...Highly recommended.
Trust me. I know what I'm doin' when I'm reviewin'.

I got this for my son's new phone and here's why.,
I have had Otterbox cases for my work phones for years and as I have a slight physical handicap that can cause me to fall (and I do) I can say that I have NEVER broken my work cell and it is all due to Otterbox!
I also bought one for my new iPhone SE. Highly recommedomundo!

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!

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.

Per Denon they will be discontinued but still supported and will work with the new "Home" series and all Heos related products. I asked Denon and that is what they told me.

I just asked "Alexa" via this Marshall speaker to play Harry Belafonte's "Dance Senora" and it did so! So I think all you need do is ask and so long as it is available, it shall be played. At least that's my experience so far. ;-)

can i answer my phone on it

Maybe. Maybe not. Mine sometimes works (rare) but usually doesn't. Very fristrating but now I am told it may be because I have a Motorola Android Phone.

I just bought one today and it goes back tomorrow and all because it DEMANDS that I enter a credit card number and PII, Personally Identifiable Information. Why is this necessary to register and use a Roku or any device for that matter?

Apparently Roku ain't talkin'. I gave the device a single star and would give it zero if I could. It goes back today because I can't find out anything about how to get around Roku's insistence I provide them with PII and credit card info that they have no need for. I got it yesterday for $30 off but I don't care. It is not going in my home. Hey Roku....You can keep it. Pfffffffffftttt!
