    85 inch TV for my home theater

    I went down this road. Nobody stocks any of the later models. Sony withdrew from SA some years back and then supposedly came back but their commitment to this is questionable. I sent a mail to Sony enquiring about some models and received a generic answer to contact the local suppliers - none of...

    I also have a 2070. Until earlier this year I was using Tidal Connect successfully on it - so maybe try and give it a bash again. I recall it was a mission to set up at the outset because you need to enter your logins etc directly via the Yamaha. But as I said it did work for me before I...

    85 inch TV for my home theater

    I think with TV’s above 65” it becomes exceedingly difficult to achieve that goal of centre if screen at eye level. Not to say it’s impossible but I don’t know it’s a realistic target any longer. Certainly at the cinema this isn’t possible either from most seating positions

    85 inch TV for my home theater

    Recently picked up a 77” G4 and it is simply incredible. Would highly recommend. Right now it’s on sale for 10k off sticker so jump on it if it’s on your radar. Edit… mine is also higher than I planned but it actually works well and doesn’t seem overly high - in fact when I go to another room...

    85 inch TV for my home theater

    I’ve just been down the path of trying to locate a high end Sony tv locally. Theoretically we get them here but we fall under the UAE somehow - ie we rely on them for our stock - and this is very limited. Basically - don’t waste your time looking for a Sony set. You may be lucky and find some...

    Indeed it was. The MQA story was one of the reasons I went to Qobuz in the first place. I actually was under the impression that tidal had now gone lossless as they claim - but it’s evident now that they haven’t. The fact they never replied to his email means they are aware of their...

    Please help in importing this item

    There are local suppliers of Liquid Metal. The big thing is that’s it’s highly conductive so you need to take precautions not to spill over onto adjoining areas. A quick YouTube search will give show you many vids of how to best apply it. Let us know how you go if you do go that route!

    I think this has to do with digital rights etc that I presume they pay for

    I tried using vpn’s and they all were detected on the Qobuz side. Same story trying to use a virtual credit card in Euro - I couldn’t get it to work. Once registered though easily used without a VPN. If you get someone to do it and select annual plan you pay once and it automatically renews and...

    Service (or lack thereof) in the industry

    Not audio related but I walked into a Merc showroom a few years back with serious interest in buying a new car. A bunch of salespeople sitting at their desks and not a single one of them got up to assist us. Eventually I went to one of them asking for help. The experience put me off the brand -...

    I’m using the Eversolo as my streamer and it has its own native Qobuz app which works really well

    I have successfully registered for Qobuz. Have a mate overseas that did that for me using his Uk credit card - took out an annual subscription which has renewed a few months back. Had some teething issues in the beginning but now it always streams seamlessly without problems. Would recommend if...

    Home printer recommmendations

    Would highly recommend a colour laser Brother MFP. It’s fast, toner cartridges last forever. Printing resolution is great even for images/photos. I’ve been using the MFC-L8690 for years now and never needed to change toner yet - and I print a fairly large amount
