No - Alan Gouger has one and loves it. He told me about it a month or so ago and I decided to take the plunge so to speak.

My new Zappiti NAS and WattBox Uninterruptible Power Supply !

Craig, I have used the Wattbox in many systems. Great unit, great price and never had a problem.

I'm loving the new Zappiti NEO player. Rock solid, fast, working great. Love having all my movies at my " fingertips " so to speak.

A new JVC RS4100 is in the house ( and installed and up and running )!

I'm loving mode 3 dimming. More thoughts as I watch more on it.

I'm still getting used to the RS4100, after nearly 6 years with my RS4500. I didn't use the color filter on the RS4500, but my RS4100 is calibrated with the filter for both SDR and HDR - in mid laser. Color looks more nuanced / truer to me. I find my RS4100 to be just as sharp, but it looks " different ". I'm using mode 3 laser dimming. On the RS4500 I used the less aggressive mode 2 dimming. Contrast looks slightly better on the RS4100, with no artifacts using mode 3. This also gives the RS4100 a higher contrast in those mixed scenes - higher intra-scene contrast, that even my guests noticed. The full fade to black is super dramatic - my RS4500 didn't do that. My wife even commented on how dark the room got - total blackness! 

I have had HDMI issues, so I needed a new cable. My old cable did not play nice with the new projector. But syncing is much faster. 

There are a lot of small improvements that do add up. I am glad to have made the move.

It was so hot in my attic installing wiring for speakers 14 & 15 now that my Denon A1H is here, I need to rewatch " Bridge On The River Kwai " for the " hot box " scenes.

Just more 4K Blu-ray discs. The theater is excellent the way it is. Upgrading lots of older movies when they get remastered in 4K is the only upgrade over the last couple of years!
