    Format full house?

    I have the original Star Wars trilogy on VHS, VCD, Laserdisc, DVD, Blu-Ray and 4K. This is the only film set I have in all formats and it’s really just a nostalgia thing. 😊

    Why don’t reviews mention if Bluetooth / standalone speakers are stereo or mono?

    Just to use the laptop as an example. I can understand putting a stereo set up on this as you would tend to be sitting very close to it so you would be able to appreciate the separation between left and right. If you play music from that same laptop but place it across the room, you would not...

    Why don’t reviews mention if Bluetooth / standalone speakers are stereo or mono?

    Cannot really sum it up any better than this really. With speakers of this size you would be very hard-pressed to tell the difference. With a traditional stereo speaker set up you would have the left and right speakers X feet apart to be able to create the stereo image, soundstage etc. Just...

    Question on Atmos Speakers and brand matching

    Personally, I would try to keep all speakers to the same brand/range to ensure tonality is consistent across all speakers. I find that the Radius are a great match with the silver range. If I were going to go full out on Atmos I would go for speakers on the ceiling rather than upfiring ones...

    Marantz PM7000N low pass filter

    It won't matter. It still sends the full signal to the main speakers.

    New Speakers - AVI DM5

    Glad they are good. Can't say I'm surprised. Loved my 9.1s. 😊

    Question Black, White, or Silver?

    I want good sound but I also certainly want it to look good. Whilst I currently prefer black to go with decor, colour by itself is not the main criteria. I do want components that match.

    Tips on selling vinyl albums

    If you want to maximise the amount of money you make then selling individually is most likely the best way to go. If you simply want to get rid then list them all together. But, you are less likely to maximise profit. The issue with large bulk offerings is that a lot of people tend to already...

    Question Wall mounted speakers?

    If you don’t really use it then perhaps you can repurpose it if you went down the MA route? I think this is something you would have to determine for yourself really. Difficult for me to say if the bass would be adequate to your ears. Whilst I think it would be adequate we are talking about a...

    Question Wall mounted speakers?

    If you can accommodate a sub then I would recommend the Monitor Audio Radius 90. Really compact but still great sound. Perfect for wall mounting (but will need a sub).

    Speaker placement: missing surround speakers, have rear and height

    Personally, given the speakers are in the ceiling, I would certainly utilise them as height speakers and not rear side speakers. (If you want to give it the time, you could try it both ways and see what you prefer). I would use the rear speakers as exactly that, rear speakers. When you go...

    Ha ha, yeah, I just realised. 😂 I was reading the post and forgot about the title.

    Question New CD Player next week, can’t decide?

    The Denon receiver has a headphone socket on the front. Do you notice any difference in sound between the 2 methods? The Denon receiver also has a USB input on the front. If you play CDs on this do you notice any difference in sound comparing the same CDs on the Marantz CD player? I think...

    Question New CD Player next week, can’t decide?

    This is true. If you want to know what they actually have in stock use their eBay page - Hyperworld. If you do decide to buy from them though, their main website is cheaper.
