Hi, I am after a bit of advise. I am currently having an extension built for a kitchen/lounge area (about 13M x 5M). I am going to put in some ceiling speakers and have run cable to have 6 spread across the area. Following some reading I have purchased the Sonos amp (already heavily tied into...

Great thanks for the replys guys. I think I will mount the extra speakers for now (if I can hide the cable without the wife complaining) and look at the extra subwoofer after.

Thanks, I was aiming to mount them near the ceiling so should be ok then. should I also introduce the second sub?

Hi Unfortunately my Onkyo 605 amp has decided to start to play up a bit, so I have decided to order the Dennon AVR2200 as a replacement. I currently have the Jamo A102 5.1 speakers running from the amp, but I also have another full 5.1 set of A102's in the loft. seeing as the AVR2200 is...

Thanks, I will ensure I check the image retention. I can't see them selling it without any warranty.

Hi, I was after a bit of advise regarding purchasing an ex display TV from a shop. The TV is an LED Samsung which when I checked they 'should' run for 100,000 hours with no problems. It's been on display in the store for about 9 months, probably on high settings. Can you see any issues buying...

Thanks for the replys. I never thought about a second hand one, may try that. May be able to get the JS9000 if its cheap. Not too fussed about the 3D, don't use it at the moment, but thanks for the heads up. Samsung UE65JS9000

Thanks for the reply. Are you saying steer clear of the HDR TV or both? i am finding it hard to find a good 65" TV around the £1000 mark.

Hi, I am looking at the above TV's. Both are very similar with the UE65KU6000 being around £400 more, but has the added benefit of HDR. Can anyone advise if the £400 for the HDR is worth it. I cannnot find any reviews on the TV, hence my post here. Thanks.

Hi, Following the recent reviews of headphones in this months mag, I am looking at purchasing some 5.1 headphones which also double up as a gaming headset with a microphone. They will be used for movies and for online gaming on my PS3. I have seen the below, but didnt know if anyone can give...

Thanks for the information. I should be ok wiring it all up, just was'nt sure if what I was using was the best way to do it. I think like you said the wired method would be better than wireless, especially with the amount of interferrence in homes. Do you know if the Philex SLX 4B is good? I...

Hi, Can anyone advise the best way to send sky to 3 other rooms throughout my house? Currently I have a Sky HD box in my front room and a Sky + box in the bedroom. I am looking to send one of these signals to 3 other TV's throughout the house and need to know the best (and cheapest) way to do...

Thanks for the reply, I will give it a go.

Hi All, I am looking at purchasing the entry level Samsung LED TV, the UE40B6000. I cant seem to find any reviews of this model on the What Hi-Fi website, nor at the back of the magazine (just higher models). The TV is only going into a kitchen diner, so doesn't need to be too flash, just after...

No thats fine and so are the speakers, the budget for this is around £400. Oh and forgot to mention, the wife said it cant be a big amp/ugly...... :o)
