Ordered Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Pt1 4K Bluray. Will go to see Pt2 May 23rd, 2025 when it is released at the theaters then add it to the Mission Impossible collection.

Two more pair of Klipsch RP-600M bookshelf speakers ordered that I will use for Atmos to replace the old Advent Marbles! Finally the Atmos speakers will match the rest of the Klipsch speakers in the home theater! Will figure out correct speaker placement after new speakers arrive. Also need to figure out mounting brackets for ceiling for the larger Klipsch speakers.

Ordered this morning:

• Witness (Arrow 4K Blu-ray)
• Trading Places (4K Blu-ray)
• Scrooged (4K Blu-ray)
• Fargo (Shout Factory 4K Blu-ray)
• American Graffiti (4K Blu-ray)

Library after these movies arrive tomorrow.

New Klipsch RP-600M's arrived today which will replace the old Advent Marbles being used for Atmos. Was coming up the street coming home from work today and passed the UPS truck which pulled up after I pulled in the driveway. So I could not have timed that any better even if I tried. Now I am researching brackets to hang the speakers from the ceiling and I will be reenforcing the mounting point in the ceiling. I also will be repositioning the locations of the Atmos speakers to get proper location and Atmos effects. Also need to order some more speaker wire. So as soon as I have brackets and wire there will be 4 pair of these RP-600M's in my home theater! Four suspended from the ceiling and four around the back of the room for surrounds.

 

[Dave Moritz]

Possible next purchase for new movies:

• Equalizer 3 (4K Blu-ray)
• Rudy (4K Blu-ray)
• Duel (4K Blu-ray)

Not sure what else. Going to be researching brackets to suspend Klipsch RP-600M's from ceiling for Atmos/X/Auro. Need to do some reading on speakers placement especially since the current locations where not done correctly.

Not sure what is going on but I am waiting for my last order of movies that should have been delivered 11/8!

• Witness (Arrow 4K Blu-ray)
• Trading Places (4K Blu-ray)
• Scrooged (4K Blu-ray)
• Fargo (Shout Factory 4K Blu-ray)
• American Graffiti (4K Blu-ray)

Unboxed pair one and they are being used with my bedroom system and hooked up to the Pioneer Elite SC-05 receiver. These two pair will be my new Dolby Atmos speakers and are identical matches to the speakers I am using for my surrounds. Now I just need to find the correct place on the ceiling and find the ceiling mounts that will work the best for what I have.

Using up my gift cards I recently received for my birthday. And very close to the 500 title mark! And I purchased the Klipsch RP-600 M speakers I was looking to upgrade my current Advent Marbles with for the Atmos channels. All I need for that is a workable bracket to suspend them from the ceiling and a new spool of speaker wire.

I am amazed and thrilled seeing that three of the movies I have been waiting for will be coming to 4K Blu-ray. I honestly had given up on seeing them in 2023 even though it sounded like the word was we should see them in the near future. But it is like Christmas to get these films on 4K Blu-ray disc this year! Titanic was already on the release list and I already own both Avatar films on 4K Blu-ray. So the thrill for me is to own Titanic, The Abyss, True Lies and Aliens on the 4K format.

Aliens, The Abyss, True Lies and Titanic will get purchased ahead of anything else this year! And again since Titanic was already on my list and was previously announced this means 3 of the films will replace 3 other titles on my purchase list if needed! And I will love to add Aliens to my copy of Alien on 4K disc!

My new list since making the purchase list a few days ago! See previous post above.

• Titanic (4K Blu-ray) December 5th, 2023
• Aliens (4K Blu-ray) December 5th, 2023
• True Lies (4K Blu-ray) December 5th, 2023
• The Abyss (4K Blu-ray) December 5th, 2023
• Death Wish (4K Blu-ray) 2018
• Face Off (4K Blu-ray)
• The Mandalorian Season 1
• The Mandalorian Season 2
• The Warriors (4K Blu-ray) Arrow
• The Fugitive (4K Blu-ray)
• Young Guns
• The Nun ll (4K Blu-ray)
• The Nun (4K Blu-ray)
• Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season Two (4K Blu-ray)
• The Naked Gun (4K Blu-ray)

bluray.com claims that Aliens, True Lies and The Abyss are coming out March 12th, 2024. I hope it will be December but I will be buying them ether way.

I might have to post a photo of the movies I’ve splurged on in the past couple of weeks.

Well it seems like March for Aliens, The Abyss and True Lies on 4K Blu-ray but it has taken some time to get here so a few more months is not going to make a difference. Just as stoked to see that these films will finally be coming to disc. I know I will watch these many times as soon as I get them. Still looking into how to make my new RP-600 M's work for Atmos as far as suspending from ceiling. I do have a good idea how I will do it but I will have to drill 4 holes into the back of each cabinet. This will finally remove the old Advent Marble two way speakers that went from surrounds to Atmos use. Need to dial in the exact placement for the Klipsch since the current speakers are not located correctly. No problem as you always learn something new and it will only improve the Atmos experience.

Here is one of the speaker brackets I am considering.

Just for grins, because I threatened to do it. It’s unusual for me to buy this many discs, but it is that time of year after all. This is the last couple of weeks. I’m pretty happy with the wide variety.

Nice mix of movies looks like you will be watching some good movies and I see a cool Diana Krall concert in there as well.



Today I watched the new 4K Blu-ray of Scrooged which I usually always watch doing the Christmas season.

4K Bluray / Dolby Vision
DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 (48kHz, 24-bit)

Ok upgraded/replaced some titles and finally placed them in the main library and pulled the older copy's out.

Yeah, as well as a Mahler Symphony 1&2.

That's what caught my eye too, John. I've had that release for years. You're gonna love it.

Her back-and-forth with the audience on The Girl from Ipanema is priceless!

Just ordered The Fugitive on 4K Blu-ray. I am sure I will break 500 4K Bluray titles by 1/1/24 ahead of my end of 2023 goal.
