    5.1 Setup: Sonos Vs The Usual

    He?s in Fourways. If he could have a listen, would be great. That sounds like a plan. His first choice was Sonos because of the built-in Alexa assistant. Do you know if it?s possible to hook-up a turntable to the Sonos? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    5.1 Setup: Sonos Vs The Usual

    I?m all good!! Thanks for the responses chaps. Apologies for the delayed post, it?s been a challenging couple of days over the last week. So, I?ve convinced my friend to go wireless! Huge win but still needs convincing & prefers to listen in person. Any leads on demos that I could send him...

    EksDom Load shedding Woes

    Also running my audio gear via inverter backup supply to discard power fluctuations & (just as important) continue to enjoy the sound of vinyl during load shedding. But what about a cheaper option such as those surge plugs for fridges that only switch on after 4mins or so, after power is...

    5.1 Setup: Sonos Vs The Usual

    Hi everyone, I am helping a friend setup his retired mom's flat with good sound. She's a lover of music & has an ear for good sound. She is looking to spend a few bucks. At first, I was leaning toward: B&W 606 for FL and FR Marantz SR5014 Bentley FR50 for Surround R and Surround L Rega P1 &...

    Beats Pill Repair

    Hi everyone, Does anyone know a reliable person that can repair this for me? The charging USB port is broken. I have seen reviews on how to repair it but the effort is more than I want to put in. There's also some intricate soldering work required.

    :giggle: Definitely agree! My 1.5yr old loves chatting to Google but I struggle to get her to say "Hey Google" or "Ok Google" to prompt the damn thing...she just says "Google" and expects a response.. Albeit, Google Home Mini is cool but their intention was to have the Mini's around the house...

    Klipsch 28f vs Monitor Bronze 6 vs Paradigm vs B&W 683 S2

    Agree with LAV! I demo'd the 683 S2s and the 685 S2's 2 years back and decided to go with the 685 S2's and a nice sub (SVS SB12) for 2 reasons.. The 683's were a bit too big in size for my space and they were also out of my price range. I recently added a centre (HTM61 S2) and running all of...

    Ok, you make it sound quite simple! I am quite tech savvy but no nothing about electrical work..this is something I've been stalling and wanting to do for some time so going to tackle it! Great info to start with, thanks! I have a Google Home Mini which is Google's Alexa...you think it would...
