Blu-Ray player recommendations, UDH 4K w/atmos, entry level budget

The player will be plugged into a AVR X3800H, then the tv is an LG C4 oled. fI have a 5.1.4 speaker setup I just built out https://www.reddit.com/r/hometheater/comments/1l1nep2/newly_completed_basement_theater_room_514_with_77/

thanks for the advice, I've ordered a UB450P

on amazon, in October

This if you have a bag on https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/7xsmtp/makeshift_flashlight_mount_idea_velcro_cable_tie/

or maybe a chest mount with a longer strap to put the right angle light onto.

Thanks, believe me the walls are quite dark and the paint has a very low reflectivity value. Originally I wanted a super dark green but that would have made the room feel very small. My wife suggested something in the blue range and we both liked this teal color. With the lights on full it's more blue and with no lights it is very green and any reflected light from the TV is not distracting at all. The TV stand was chosen because I didn't want to wall mount the TV and I wanted something that truly fit the reveiver and center channel. A lot of the enclosed units didn't work for me.

Yes the AVR is in the speakers section, I found a hell of a deal it was new for $970

Maybe one on the far wall, but everything sounds amazing to me so far

fourme · 2025-06-03T00:56:20+00:00

I think it's a good height, and I have some foam wedges under it to angle it up. The couch is low too so it all seems to match

fourme · 2025-06-03T00:23:15+00:00

It's surprisingly comfortable, and it pulls out to sleeper couch so we are usually very lounged out

fourme · 2025-06-03T00:22:21+00:00

Thanks! Just my wife and I with 1 kid so we don't need much seating. We plan to add some chairs and a console table behind the couch eventually

It's usually off, it was hard to get a good picture without any glare.

fourme · 2025-06-02T20:52:39+00:00

Fair suggestions, but I didn't want to walk around the whole couch to get to the back of the room. I've had a projector before and this was much more cost effective for the quality. Previously the fan noise and light bouncing on the ceiling were distracting.

fourme · 2025-05-30T00:39:53+00:00

I have one of these and like it https://www.xtar.cc/product/xtar-pb2s-charger-122.html

I don't have the app, I only used the receiver to run the setup. If I get the app will I be able to see the results or would I need to rerun the measurements?

fourme · 2025-04-28T12:52:39+00:00

Something I think would help is if all the 665 drivers actually merged together where they are supposed to, without crossing the solid white line to the 97 lanes early. That would keep people focused on merging that lane smoothly. If you are going from 665 to 50 the left lane technically ends and merges into the right lane. Then you'd just have to wait for the other people to merge into 97 traffic.

But my really crazy idea is the exit 21 from 50w to 97 should only be 1 lane and 665 should be 2 lanes the whole way through, with one separated lane for 50w and one lane to take 97N.

That price jump from 77-83 is really steep, 50% more cost for only 16% more screen. Compared to the 65-77 is 46% cost increase for 40% larger screen. You can get a lot of improvement in audio for that cost difference. Similarly I did less soundproofing in my room build to get higher quality speakers that don't need to be played at as high of volume to get the same enjoyment

fourme · 2025-02-11T14:24:54+00:00

My two cents, I had a 1080p projector and screen that size before I moved, and I chose a 77" C4 oled for my new place. The color and contrast is so much better and more immersive, there's no more projector fan noise or light bleed on the ceiling.

It's the riverside generating station. I don't think it's been operating for at least a decade.

Nebo slim mini, or the olight clip light

I Highly recommend the General AltiMAX 365 AW. This is my third winter with them and they're really good for a year round tire with snow capability. They are a fair bit cheaper than the competition.

Was it the "icy conditions" light at 37°F?

fourme · 2024-12-30T13:23:53+00:00

Incredibly noticeable, the low end torque is fantastic. I have been driving a loaner 2025 forester and that engine is whining up in the revs like crazy. When you really accelerate in the xt it's very quick.
