    Sony Bar 9 (Soundbar) - Discussion

    I know soundbars are typically the topic of ridicule among audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts, but every time a company comes out w/ a really cool design I do get pretty excited about the technology involved in the making of them and they really do get better all the the time. I think...

    Sony NW-A306 frustration

    I'm close to giving it back. While the NW-A306 does its primary job well (it plays music successfully) there seem to be several drawbacks that are very frustrating - but maybe I only misunderstand something or I haven't found the relevant settings. I'd be grateful for help and comments. - What...

    I got a new Song a95L TV that is 65 inch. The installer placed it to where the center of the tv is about 56" inches from the floor. He said that this was the most common height. My old tv used to have a stand so I am used to lower tvs from stands. Is 56" inch height acceptable in the Home...

    Can somebody check for me if Sony Music app on Sony Xperia plays hi-res audio on DAC with the correct frequency/depth?

    I don’t have a DAC, but I really want to find out if the Sony Music app outputs the correct frequency without downsampling. I can’t find the answer anywhere. There is a common claim that Android downsamples to 48 KHz, but Android 10 and above has full hi-res audio support (24+/192 kHz) per...

    Adding a volume pot to a PS-LX49 turntable

    I just got my first older record player, and I'm looking to modify it. I'd like to add a volume knob. To be clear, this is not a question about preamps, only about what type of potentiometer I need to get (I know the volume knob will not make the phono output louder). I have worked with...

    I seen people praise the Sony STR-DN1080 but I have not see much people talk about its weird quirks and sayings. Mind you this info comes from the web manual and personal experience. The "BD/DVD" and "SA-CD/CD" HDMI inputs have better sound quality over the other HDMI inputs Source HDMI to...

    Downsizing from 5.1.2 to 3.0

    I've been thinking about this for a while. In order to have 5.1.2, I have to arrange my room in a specific way and it's a tight fit. If I enjoyed movies and multichannel music more I wouldn't mind this setup. Initially that's how I thought but now I'm getting sick of having this 5.1.2 setup. I...
