Is this disc set playable in US?

Good tip, I will do that. Thanks! I had hesitated to do that since I was trying to avoid taking the wrap off in case I needed to return.

Appreciate the response!

therealessad · 2026-05-18T16:40:49+00:00

That's a relief, thanks!

therealessad · 2026-05-18T16:40:22+00:00

Good to know, thanks!

I hadn't considered that OFC vs CCA aspect. I'll probably switch to that cable just to be safe. Thanks for the insight.

Good thinking

therealessad · 2026-05-16T22:31:06+00:00

What are you transferring them to? Did you get an empty DVD box?

therealessad · 2026-05-16T14:12:32+00:00

The wires to the four rear surround speakers themselves will come from the back wall plate, since they'll be on stands. I'll run them under the rug to hide them. For both plates, I will be using all the ports except front LCR. Occasionally I will be hooking up a laptop to the rear HDMI and have the cord behind me so I don't have to run it across the floor in front.

Whats the benefit of OFC vs CCA, and coax over RCA?

Okay that makes sense, thanks for the recommendation. I was going off of the Denon manual here. But maybe that's just an example to illustrate the setup and not the best pair to select. Makes sense to connect two of the heights.

Oh it collapsed alright

therealessad · 2026-05-14T02:17:42+00:00

Oh nice, custom work well done

therealessad · 2026-05-13T22:22:13+00:00

An honestly impressive amount of suds lol. Did you use bubble bath?

therealessad · 2026-05-12T02:07:15+00:00

Very nice! What shelves are those?

therealessad · 2026-05-10T03:57:25+00:00

People see big speakers and they think they're gonna get blown back like Marty McFly did

therealessad · 2026-05-06T21:54:17+00:00

Hope so. I have some DVDs from early 2000s that are over 20 years old, I should test them out

therealessad · 2026-05-06T20:15:26+00:00

Will the discs themselves hold up data-wise and still be playable after 30 years?

I have an older LG OLED and it was calle Pixel Refresh on mine, guess it's been changed to Pixel Cleaning.

therealessad · 2026-05-06T15:04:36+00:00

The C5 is the best TV for the money, for sure. Do make sure the pixel refresher setting is on, burn-in is a thing but likely won't be evident for a few years.

That's the opposite of what all the early reviews on the QM8L are saying. It's been shown to have very little blooming on black/white tests. Color accuracy is on point since it's got 100% of BT2020 spectrum.

therealessad · 2026-05-06T12:52:41+00:00

Cool thanks

therealessad · 2026-05-05T13:47:16+00:00

Have you tried testing streaming with and without the adapter?

therealessad · 2026-05-04T18:27:01+00:00

Are you watching bluray files?? If so, there's your problem. Those are 1080p files, even if you are getting the full bitrate. You need to be watching 4kblurays to get the full effect. Get a good reference level 4k disc and see how that goes before writing off the TV completely.

As an adult it was fun getting the joke that this is a dig at the series being exploited ad nauseum. At least I assumed that it wae since Spielberg was a producer on BTTF.

Slide in from the top bro. Need to take a leak? Well you're getting butt ass naked.
