Yard darts is the next big movie coming, right?

Then your other issue could be that it is set for stereo only with no sub output. You may have to configure sub on, or set speaker size to small with a low crossover.

Biggest issue is that the sub is plugged into pre-amp in, not out...

George Bailey on Deep tracks is good. Jim Ladd was very good also but has recently passed. Carol Miller is the one that is very hard to listen to but usually on Classic Vinyl

I have a Brother HL-L3290 color laser that I got about a year ago as a refurb. Is not great for photography printing, but for all general purpose stuff, it has been great. It has a scanner, but no auto feed. I scan very little, so it is fine. No fighting with ink clogs. It just works. Also easy...

Yep, I meant ir... Not sure why I typed rf. Brain fart. But both are IR controlled, so I can get by with harmony 700 and control everything.

Thank you for the info. Those are both the units I am considering and glad to hear they are controllable with rf remote. Sounds like I have my answers.

Sounds like the Hisense U7K or TCL Q8 may be what I want then. They can use an RF remote, correct? I need to keep it simple for my wife so I use a Harmony that powers on everything and sets inputs. Guess the main issue would be a power loss if it goes to the homescreen. With RF, I can probably...

The FireTV Omni that I got for the bedroom wants to go to the home screen at startup. Was looking at HiSense U7K series and think that will default back to last HDMI, but trying to do some research before I bought something.

I have an old (10 yr?) 55" Vizio HD in the living room. Want to now replace with 65 - 75 inch 4K. Just got a 43" FireTV Omni series for the bedroom. Picture is fine for me, but there are some drawbacks. I had a dumb HD tv with firestick 4K into an Onkyo receiver with 5.1. I have got it set up...

Deep tracks is the main station I listen to 95% of the time with an occasional change to Classic vinyl or Tom Petty. I only have it in my wife's car and it does get 308. It did not change the preset for me. I had XM in mine when it first came out with Music Lab and the concert station. Deep...

Watched first 2 last night. Laugh track is way too high. Don't need to be told when to laugh. The nephew is more annoying than needed. Yes, he probably should be neurotic, but way too much of a suckup to Frasier. Jokes were weak, but think they were trying to catch everyone up and introduce...

Whack it with a stick so you can get the candy out...

** Sheepishly answering ** Yep... My son and I went to see it. The others always came out right around his birthday and we would make it an event. Are they good? Not hardly, but stupid fun for the most part. There was a short doc on the film after and had a lot of behind the scenes stuff, some...

I'm pretty much only listening to Deep Tracks on there. Still have a lot more repetition than maybe it should have, but there is enough variety to keep it interesting. Sure miss XM Music Lab from a decade ago before they went to a very stale playlist and dropped it, and the Live station they had...

Here's a commentary I enjoyed about this from a blog I frequent... Our nation has recently been rocked with the twin tragedies of a Hollywood writers' strike and, as of last week, a Hollywood actors' strike. Fortunately, this seems unlikely to impact Disney Studios' latest live-action remake of...

I'll see if I can find a place to audition them with some known music. Usually use Dire Straits Brothers in Arms as first listen... When I got the Infinity towers, I auditioned a bunch in that price range several times with Paradigms, CV, Klipsch, and some others. Infinity stood out at the time...

I've been looking at the Elacs for a bit, but haven't heard them. Now I have some old (late 80's) Infinity RS5001 that I bought new with the Emit tweeter that still sound good. Have had to refoam them though. Was thinking maybe it's time to retire them if the Debut 2.0 F6.2 floorstanders are...

Amazon has them. Worked for mine as well.

I think this is a great show and ep 9 was fantastic. Had a little different direction and was a nice change. Really dig the Columbo style of the show from title cards through the rest. Ep 5 and 6 were not as good to me, although some people disagree. Has had a great guest cast throughout and...

I've always been able to get $5/mo deal for the car going to cancellation dept. That comes with the app that we use occasionally playing through alexa speakers at home. If it is worth $5, I'd go that route. Certainly isn't worth $15/mo for me.

I think that is the point on those... Although, I enjoyed many of the Sharknado movies. It may have been mostly because they would come out right around my son's birthday and we would make an event of it. Hope they do make the sequel "Crackodile"

TLDR version: Want to know if I can control Nvidia Shield with IR universal remote. Long version: For now I have firesticks on my couple of systems. Everything is run by Harmony 700 remotes (yes I know discontinued). I love the layout and have everything mapped the same on both systems so my...

I may be more interested in this one... MethGator https://www.dailywire.com/news/sharknado-producers-will-bring-drug-addled-killer-reptile-to-life-in-new-summer-flick

It would 'probably' do all those. I think those can all be IR controlled. Not 100% sure on the Roku box. It won't work on the firestick out of the box (no bluetooth). You would have to add an OTG cable splitter, FLIRC IR receiver, and might as well add a hub with ethernet while you are at it...

I love my Harmony remotes, but since they have been discontinued, the price is pretty high. I have a Sofaboton U1 I use for the deck TV. Controls TV, Firestick, and soundbar. It is bluetooth compatible, and fairly inexpensive. Programming is done over an app on the phone. Has hard buttons and...

For a cheap universal remote, there is also the Sofabaton U1. Usually $40 - $50 on Amazon. Will control multiple devices. Programable over device app. Does bluetooth also. Have one for outside system with TV, soundbar, and firestick and it controls all of them. Could probably have used firestick...

I have a couple 700 series and love them. Have a spare put away for when one can't be fixed. I use them on both systems with different equipment and have the exact same button layout for everything for the WAF. Love the physical buttons and the easy layout. Had a non working button issue and...

I just fixed the buttons on my 700 that were starting to be an issue. I used a product called ButtonWorx. I have seen them on ebay, but ordered direct from company at https://p1repair.com/ Got a 2 pack so I can repair my other one when it finally starts having issues. There are good...
