Streamed the Planet Earth series from Netflix in 4k or UHD and it was amazing. I have only watched John Wick and Gladiator from a 4k Blu-ray disk; Gladiator was underwhelming, I assume older movies will be like that since the format wasn't around at the time of release? I am loving the TV...

For what its worth; I just got a 55" Samsung QLED Q8FN and I love it! Especially now that I got all components playing nicely together. See "there has got to be a better way" thread in this section.

Update: It Worked! The Amazon fire tv connected to Marantz SR6008 via HDMI 2.2 Monitor out HDMI 2.2 from Marantz to TV (not ARC input on tv). I can now see receiver menus without exiting the source. I just have everything set to passthrough and auto audio. I get 4k UHD on Netflix, Prime...

Have you tried a HDMI splitter?

If I run all the HDMI cables into the receiver and a HDMI 2.2 out to the TV; I am going to lose something right? audio formats, video quality? Even if it does 4k pass-through.

Upgraded to 4k and got some new gear this past week.....Samsung 55" QLED Q8F TV, Sony X700 4k blu-ray, Harmony Companion remote. Please, bare with me a moment. Hooking up all the new gear and still running [sound] through my Marantz SR6008, 4k pass-through HDMI 1.4. The Sony 4k UHD Blu-Ray...

Everything is here! Complete overhaul on Friday! Had to buy a 4k movie while I was at the store....got John Wick, never seen it, but hear only good things

The Ethernet does what? Save me from running a different line to my router?

Last week I got the Harmony Companion..that's an awesome remote system!

Tomorrow is a big day for me (wife could care-less); my new Samsung 55" Q8FN is arriving. We have been using a 50" Vizio LCD 1080p for the past ~6yrs. that will move into the converted garage. This is my plan....(trip to BB is emanate) Samsung mounted to wall with Sanus BLT2. Sony UBPX700...

What Jazz albums does she have?

Bought the soundtrack yesterday; love it. This will actually get me out to a theater after....don't know when...Wedding Crashers maybe?

Will do once I get everything set-up. Room is not quite ready

Update... I went and looked/listened to this set up and it sounded good without any issues. I bought'em! Now I got my marantz nr1403 and a pair of Elac Debut b6 for sale to cover this purchase. I think it'll be a nice set up for the space I have in our coverted garage

They are still hooked up; I would not buy without checking everything out!

Think I'm gonna jump on this: https://eugene.craigslist.org/ele/d/51-surround-home-theater/6651647966.html $270 for Marantz nr1602, PSB image b6 pair, PSB image b4 pair, and PSB image c5, and Pinnacle 10" sub (which I dont care about) If all sounds good, I think I could sell my marantz nr1403...

Ever heard of someone using two as rear channels in 5.1 set up?

It just struck me! Took a while, but I came around. I need a Bluetooth transmitter for my receiver and decent Bluetooth speaker(s). I hope I can transmit a source and simultaneously play through my wired stereo speakers?

Have you heard the Riva Turbo X?

Has anyone heard this Bluetooth speaker? It seems to have many positive reviews.
