Sorry Andy TW I misread that, I didn't realise you posted a link to a Samsung I thought it was the Sony you spoke of. Yes I am very interested in the Samsung Quantum Dot range, I may have gone out and bought that model already but it's only available in curved form. I find it bizarre that they...

Good points there. I think I'll wait and see what 2017 brings; my 32 has done well so far, I'm sure I can handle another 10-12 months - OLED would be the Panacea. I have a strong aversion to Sony, particulary their TVs after I bought a small (not so) Smart TV for the bedroom. Picture's fine but...

Hello, I'm in the market to upgrade my eight and a half year old 32" Panny that has served us so well. I think that a 50"+ TV will look ridiculous in the space so really want to go with something like a 42/43". The trouble is that all the high end TVs start at 49/50" and anything lower than...

So it's a year since I took this out and Deezer seem to think that we are all going to remember some small print in a 12 month old confirmation email. I only noticed today when I was going through my credit card statement, but two weeks ago I was charged £238 for a renewal! Bearing in mind the...

Yes thank you, I do understand what your saying but I've watched a couple of youtube reviews of the AKG's specifically and they apparently do consume ones ears very well - I have normal sized ears and do not wear specticles. This added to Amazon's excellent returns policy, I think I'll be alright.

So my ears will be inside the cups. Over, around, call it what you fancy. Very sure it will be AKG now.

Got down to a shortlist of two now: beyerdynamic T51pAKG K845 Funnily how stuff turns out, one's on ear and the other's over. I am leaning towards the AKG unless anyone has anything to say to the contrary.

Thanks for the input. I'm sitting here on the train now with my CX-200's wanting more. I was looking at NC headphones for a while but then read that sound quality is normally compromised and realistically, air travel (which seems to be the primary use case for NC) is something I do very rarely...

Hello I’ve been an in-ear user for many years as they are handy for commuting but I have been feeling I am left wanting more. I left my SoundMagic e10s on the train recently and have now gone back to my old Sennheiser CX 200 II’s. I don’t think there is a great deal between them but feel I need...

So, if you wanted to really take in your favoruite tracks and fully appreciate it to it's maximum possible potentential, would you listen to it out loud or use cans? Assume the underlying hi-fi equipment is the same and top-notch, the same goes for the speakers and headphones. I'd be erring...

Well as a follow-up to my original post in the end I decided to go for the cheaper but perfectly functional option of a Logitech wireless Bluetooth adaptor to bridge the RCA sockets. I can connect my phone and tablet to it, play Deezer, local mp3's and use apps to stream internet radio and files...

Just an observation really but the price point of the Connect irks me. As far as i can tell the Play 1, 3 and 5 all have the same core functionality you just get bigger sound the more you pay. The connect has the the same features but no speaker or amplification, just a couple of output sockets...

Thanks guys, I certainly like the modular features of the Sonos so I could enhance it later. I also want to get a media streamer in the near future for which the Sonos could be a good fit.

I like decent audio when watching films but I don't really want kit encroaching on my living space so I feel a soundbar will be a good option. What I'm wondering though is do they require an AV amp or do they plug direct in the the telly or Bluray player (PS3)? If they do would an AV amp...

I think you need to either 1. Stick to TV programs. A: I like films too 2. Use one of the available zoom functions, and sacrifice part of the picture and/or get a distorted picture. A: They look rubbish 3. Buy a projector. A: I don't have space for one of these 4. Watch it as was...
