Reviews Technical Pro Rechargable Wireless Speakers

I have very little technical knowledge that informs typical reviews of high fidelity electronics, so reader beware! In my younger days, I was somewhat a dilettante audiophile and had KLH speakers connected to an amp/tape deck/turntable system, but that was all abandoned decades ago. So, in my recent move to a new house, I thought I'd revive those days to the best of my (limited) ability. I googled KLH speakers and the Model 5's looked exactly like my 1975 KLH speakers so I bought them. One of the reviews I read mention the NAD 3050 anniversary edition and - I'll be darned - the VU meters looked exactly like the meters on my SONY tapedeck! SO I bought it! I received both components as promised, shipped on time. The set up and connections were very easy. Both units look gorgeous. But while I have little technical knowledge, I do have ears. My first musical test was Beethoven and they sounded just awful. I immediately understood that my small home is awful acoustically - bare walls, floor and ceiling create enormous reverberation, echoes, distortion etc. So, I then had to research and order some acoustical panels, which I have not received and installed yet. So, I can't even give a qualitative amateur review of the sound yet - but hope to soon. But one thing' for sure: this is getting expensive!

The VINYL 500 arrived as tracked, was well packaged and all components were included. Set up was straight forward except for wireless speakers (hardwire audio output was easy). I bought 2 Yamaha WX-010 multicast speakers to work wireless with the 500.  After working with Yamaha technical support (including 2nd level) the system works well - great sound - (500 plus stereo wireless speakers). Because my main wireless is busy, there are some dropouts I may try to work with Yamaha to try the hardwire network or add another wireless extension.  Great customer technical support.

Replacing exact unit always had perfect results have several technical pro units wireless miles power strips etc always have had excellent results and great service thank you

I added these to the streambar pro. I went ahead and purchased the additional complete surround sound system (Bass Pro and 4 wireless speakers) and let me tell you that you will not find a better 5.1 surround sound system with a streaming device for a better price. Keep these few items in mind: The streambar pro will not work with a Roku TV for the complete surround sound system. The streambar pro does not have an Ethernet port - however you can purchase an adapter that plugs into the USB. The streambar pro does not have Dolby Vision - however it has 4K HDR which is just as good. Does not come with mounting brackets - however you can find some for a good price at pretty much any online or retail store. The surround sound setup was super easy, my 5 year old could have completed it. The awesome adjustable sound settings allow you to choose deep bass or dialogue clarity or anything in between. The bass sounds really good and the wireless speakers provide that amazing surround sound. This is a must have especially if your looking for a complete 5.1 surround sound system without breaking the bank.

TLDR; Streambar Pro provides excellent Roku OS, sound and remote. Expanding with the Roku Wireless Speakers is a game changer. I've had the Streambar Pro for over a year now and if you need a streaming device and a soundbar, this device is the one to get! The Roku OS is so much better than what came with my TV. The layout is simple and apps launch quickly. The sound is a huge upgrade over the TV's built in speakers. It is much louder, dialogue is clearer, there is decent sound stage and some bass. I enjoyed using this soundbar as is for a year; however, no soundbar is going to rival a surround sound system. About a month ago, I expanded the audio setup with the Wireless Speakers and the Wireless Bass. Adding these devices was a breeze and took my TV experience from enjoyable TV watching to home theater quality. In this setup, the soundbar shifts to a center speaker where the dialogue becomes crystal clear. The Wireless Speakers handles background music and sounds, expanding the sound stage and adding some extra oomph with their own bass. I am totally immersed in movies now. If you can afford it, get this combo! The Wireless Bass is also great and adds some serious rumbles, but only takes the experience from 10 to 11. I am loving this setup! Finally, a special shout out to the pro remote! It has fantastic features I use daily like voice search, custom quick app launch buttons, headphones jack for late night watching and admittedly too often the find my remote feature.

Small, light, rechargable, and BRIGHT.

Well, these are the best rechargable AA batteries I know... Not much else to say actually...

There are plenty of reviews talking about the technical stuff. This is not that review. It's an incredible camera. Period. I run a small commercial photography and video production business and work my cameras hard. This is the second D-850 in my kit. I upgraded these from the D-810s which were also great cameras. The D850 is a workhorse. I use them daily for everything from advertising to run and gun events. The images are amazing. The 4K video is equally outstanding. This kit comes with a great 4TB drive and the Sandisk 64 gig SD which is a bonus.

This lens is far from perfect. The technical reviews chronicling the problems with sharpness in the corners and chromatic aberration are accurate, but therein lies this lens's charm. This lens is an absolute light vacuum and flares like no other lens I've shot with, making capturing artistic portraits a blast. Wide-open, nailing critical focus (or as close to it as this lens can come) is a challenge but rewards you with really breathtaking images when you do. Honestly, it's even a better video lens as its incredible shallow DOF and its unusual flaring really lend itself to rendering a very pleasant cinematic look.

You can read technical reviews to see the measured gamut and color accuracy of this monitor, I did. Its not a full RGB 10 bit monitor, which starts at about double the price, but its pretty good for what it is. I find the wider than sRGB gamut very useful processing hi bit RGB raw images prior to printing or sRGB conversion, calibrating the monitor at a slightly brighter level than I would an sRGB monitor. I hope that will mean something to someone considering buying one of these. The instructions could have been clearer, as in noting that it exists, about the power switch on the back of the monitor.
