    How to Listen to American Radio Stations in the UK

    I am in a similar position as yourself but I like to listen to Cable radio / music from Sirius XM and Pandora. What I have done is used a Virtual private Network via Express VPN. It costs about £ 10 a month and masks my IP address, so it looks as if I am in the US. I can watch TV, lisen to...

    Q-Acoustic BT 3 Internal DAC question. Bypass via Analogue?

    I run a Mac for streaming music at work and have it connected via a Dragonfly to my BT3's (via cable) and the sound is stunning. Yes the speakers give out a softer sound but the reproduction quality and clarity is stunning. Why do you want to modify or change your soundcard when you can just use...

    Bowers and Wilkins A5

    I was chatting to somebody recently who sells Heos by Denon systems along with Sonos and his ear leads him to find the Heos a better bet note for note. You can have a lengthy free trial and the scalability along with usability is staggering. Looking at the A5 and A7 last November neither...

    Cantom DM75 vs Q Acoustics Mwdia 4

    I had a demo of the Canton recently and to me it really needed volume to come alive, and it was way to loud for normal TV use. The DM 50 is a better unit for most people. Cannot quote upon the Media 4 but will it not block the base of your TV?

    Soundbars

    I think many people are going for the Soundbase over the bar, due to their size and how they sit under the screen. For wall mounted screens then clearly a soundbar is the way to go but so far as 5.1 or 7.1 many consumers do not want wires and the hassle of additional equipment. Those who enjoy...

    Which soundbar

    You may be limited on the HDMI front as very few have 3 inputs. The JBL SB 400 is worth a look at the lower end of the scale, the Monitor ASB is good but no sub woofer and the Yamaha YSP 2200 is woth a very good listen.

    I have used Chord HDMI cables and £ for £ think they offer not only good sound and colours but great value for money. Buy and you will not be disappointed.
