Love the backwards compatibility, and £1795 for the upgrade is a great price imo. Fingers crossed on the performance 🤞

Yes I think you’re right. It’s a shame as these publications were wonderful.

I don’t want to come across as too mean as what HiFi have written some lovely pieces before including the writer of this article, but there is a growing trend of misleading click baity titles leading to disappointment. It’s putting me off the publication. I used to frequent daily but now it’s...

Yes which is why I was confused. The title says “must have” and the end says we haven’t heard it.

Sorry guys but these articles are becoming more and more like adverts / click bait. You’re recommending a DAC that in your own article you’ve said you’ve never heard, yet it’s a “must have”.

My 15 pro max runs much cooler than the 14 pro max I had before it, especially when gaming. Apple investigated the overheating and it was caused by software. Something to do with iOS 17 in collaboration with some third party apps. This has since been fixed. There’s a good Forbes article on this...

I’m sure Sony have done their research and I’d be interested to hear the reasoning. The uk is a small market so maybe that’s a factor. The EU market on the other hand is huge. Maybe AV receivers are falling out of fashion faster in Europe than they are in the US?

The recently launched Dark Side of the Moon is superb in Atmos.

Exit Music on OK computer is an excellent test bed. It’s got everything, vocal subtlety to hard charging rhythm. On most systems (even many headphones) I find this track can sound boring,but on the right system the change tempo at 2:30 should be impactful and exciting. When I demo’d the PMC...
