Hi, one of the main differences between the two Sony Home Receiver is that the STR-DN850 supports MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) for connecting mobile phones and portable devices to HDTVs and other home entertainment products. The other doesn't have this feature. -Ely

Here's the response I got from Sennheiser tech support: Thank you for contacting Sennheiser. The only different between the Set 830 S and the Set 840 S is the transmission technology. The Set 830 S is infrared (ie: you must be line of sight to the transmitter) whereas the Set 840 S is Radio frequency (ie: you have the ability to move around within the 300 foot range of the transmission signal. All the features and audio quality is the same on both models.

Hi Charles... I can not say for sure as I can not see the back of the 850. Does well on my 765T.

More than enough depending on your budget. You could easily get away with 850 no problem

Thank you for trying ... Wish I could get a Direct answer ... The Roundel to 82mm is not helpful ...or as long as it is similar to the 850 ......Just a clear YES or NO response would be helpful ...

You have a more recent motherboard than I do by two years. Perhaps I was lucky on my P55 that the components and bus speed performed near the rated speed of the Samsung Pro 840 SSD. My P55 board worked. As I remember back the faster protocol had to be enabled that supports SATAIII speeds. I can only gasp as straws for your experience. Many SSDs are rated at the speed you are experiencing. It's not going to get any faster than the slowest component. Good luck!

go with samsung ssd or crucial ssd. with solid state hard drive there will be a very noticeable increase in speed. go with what you can afford, the 120g is a good price. the samsung 840 pro I got from amazon came with data transfer cd. One thing I researched was read and write speeds and it looks like the bigger the ssd capacity the faster it is. definitely ssd.

Seems to be close to the 8500. The specs show it to be slightly slower if I recall correctly.

Michael: Thanks for the excellent comparison. Until I read your comments, I had about decided to go with the 700. I'm ordering the 750 instead. Bob F.

I was looking at them both and decided on the 850 some of the new features won out and it still does well with out the wide lens because it lets you combined images right in the camera to give the same effect. Also the 850 was on sale at bestbuy.com today for 248. Also battery life is better with the 850.

Hi you can just go to this unit on amazon. It will be below the product with specs. Or just google it.The 850 is pretty small have on my desk beside a 27 mac. It is using ink. Trying to make this better. Tom

The 800 series are much thinner than the 600s. On the 860 you can manually engage/disengage 24p processing while on the 850 it's automatic. Seems pointless if you ask me.

Yes, of course. I think 512G SSD is enough for you. But if ur budget is generous, 1TB is better. BTW, Samsung 840EVO is TLC, and 840/850PRO is MLC. MLC has longer life (3000+ write circles) and TLC has only 1000+ write circles. MLC always has 128/256/512/1024G, TLC always has 120/240/500/1T because it has reserved space.If you choose MLC SSD, 512/1024G are OK.If you want to buy TLC SSD, choose a bigger one.

I don't believe there are any differences besides the clock speed. Everything seems identical (same chipset, RAM size/speed, disk model, wireless model, etc) and the only difference the i7-4510u has is an increased clock multiplier. I can say that 1.8 GHz base clock has proven more than enough for anything I need from this computer (read: educational Solidworks, light games/transcoding, productivity, 50+ tabs), and combined with the ssd and ample RAM, I doubt the difference would be significant unless you had heavy single-threaded workloads. It seems that this model has been marked down more because people rarely look at the clock speeds, and this is the cheapest i7 model (also the cheapest with 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD, my constraints); the market for the other one would be more professional.

Well, the first and obvious difference is about $110. Second, the 851 comes with the wireless accessory kit to where the 850 has it as an additional add on. That and a slight difference in design, They appear to have all the same specs as far as functionality. I don't pay much attention to the freebie software they throw in with these things, but maybe that's part of the price difference as well. For me personally, the freebie software is free for a reason.

To my knowledge, what you mentioned above is the only differences between the two. I'm personally leaning towards the 700D myself. The hard drives are securerly mounted without the use of gimmerky hotswap bays, that are known to break, in the 700D. Also the 700D is known to have better air cooling amongst customer reviews. How accurate they are is another question.
