DD1903 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I've decided the volume on the TV sucks, and that a soundbar would help resolve this issue. Anyone using one? Good/bad experiences? Link to comment

DonTron Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I've decided the volume on the TV sucks, and that a soundbar would help resolve this issue. Anyone using one? Good/bad experiences? What have you used in the past? If you've always used your TV Audio Output then a soundbar is DEFINITELY a step up. However, if you've ever used 5.1 or 7.1, then a Soundbar will feel like a step backwards. Can I ask how much you're looking to spend? Link to comment

Always seemed good enough, but not doing it for me now. Probably looking to spend couple of hundred or so. Link to comment

DonTron Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 I've got £100 John Lewis vouchers, so may invest in a soundbar of some sort. I looked at that full Sonos kit, but fucking pricey for what it actually is... and I have 2 Sonos anyways and they do the job perfectly. Soundbar for TV a far better shout. Ach I'll have a look. Fuck it. Sonos ARE good - wireless too. But aye, pricey for what you're getting. And I'm led to believe it's a bloody hassle to get a 5.1 setup going with Sonos wireless kit. Link to comment

DonTron Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Wireless headphones - pricey but I can wholly recommend these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bowers-Wilkins-Bluetooth-Headphones-Cancelling-soft-gold/dp/B0756XMGV1/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1527860501&sr=8-3&keywords=bowers+and+wilkins+px They are, genuinely, amazing.

DonTron Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Nah min, if you're wanting good headphones that'll last for an age they're perfect! Sound quality is immense, good bluetooth range, decent battery, isolates outside noise if you want them to - they really are fucking stellar! Link to comment

I've had my Bose ones for a few years now but as decent as they are still fancying a cordless pair. Link to comment
DD1903 Posted June 1, 2018 Author Share Posted June 1, 2018 Aye it was fucking absurd. I had to convince her that it was a shit idea which was proving a difficult thing but eventually a stern wise the fuck up did the job.I looked thinking they'd be half the price. Mrs was in agreement that a sonos would be good due to the ones we already have. I didn't need to justify my decision to not buy them to her... Link to comment
