B&W Pi6 Earbuds Clip

While the price of the Pi6 is more affordable in Bowers & Wilkins-land, these earbuds are relatively expensive when compared to other entry-level models from premium brands we’ve tested recently - and they don’t offer the same level of smarts, so they’re best suited to anyone that prefers clear-sounding earbuds that are simple to use and don’t require top-drawer effective noise cancelling.

The Pro-ject Debut Evo 2 Turntable, is for serious vinyl lovers at an extraordinarily low price, providing extremely good value for money. In fact, we think this is one of the very best turntables that you can buy for under £1000

BEAM 2 is still in the box please let me know what you think thx also i intend to add the ERA 300's down the road possibly hoping the 100's will do in my room for now cheers from Canada another question should i not even open the Sub Mini box and just send it back and order the GEN 4 Sub ? i am not a bass head so as long as the mini adds some i would be fine i think not sure what to do

    • @simonlucas5213
      @simonlucas5213 14 дней назад

      If you want to involve yourself in a endless, circular and heated debate, you've gone the right way about it :) I am personally of the opinion that inferior digital cables can hamstring the performance of the equipment they're connecting, and it's important that your HDMI cable (in this instance) is fit for purpose. Sonos seems to have done the right thing as far as the cable the Arc Ultra is provided with - I tried connecting it to my TV with a couple of alternatives and the bundled cable seems perfectly fine. Differing opinions are available, of course, and you don't need to spend too long using your favourite search engine to find out that the discussion regarding cables rages fiercely. Ultimately you are the best judge of the way your system is performing - so if you're able to try an alternative cable, you can make a decision without being lectured by both sides. (That's it for me and cables on this thread, btw. I've been doing this job for over 20 years and if I live to be 100 I don't need to have this argument again.)

    Does physical media sound any good ? I am amazed Sonos does not support all audio codecs within this price range. I still use (4k) blu rays and have no idea how they sound on a soundbar like this one. I have heard stories about surround speakers not working etc.

    • @simonlucas5213
      @simonlucas5213 15 дней назад

      The lack of passthrugh means your disc player will have to be connected to the TV, which can then strip the audio out to the Arc Ultra - it worked perfectly well for me during testing, though I listened purely to the soundbar without surrounds or a subwoofer.

    • @remco3819

      @simonlucas5213 i will probably use a PS5 as a player. Could be a dealbreaker for some people who really want all the codecs. Don't think Sonos will ever support all the codecs just because they think pshycial media is a thing of the past.

    Good morning and thank you for the review. I currently have Sonos Arc + Era 300 surrounds and dual Sub (Gen 3 + Gen 2). Is it worth upgrading to Ultra at the cost of giving up one sub? Is the change incremental or material? Is the front part of the Atmos bubble improved? Thank you

    • @simonlucas5213
      @simonlucas5213 15 дней назад

      The difference over the Arc soundbar you're currently using is obvious where low-frequency presence and the solidity of the soundstage is concerned, and the Arc Ultra is an altogether more spacious listen. If you were starting from scratch then I would have no hesitation in recommending it - but given that you already have a very capable set-up already, I suppose it depends on what sort of money you might be able to get for your Arc on the second-hand market. Whether or not you'll hear £999-worth of improvements by swapping an Arc for an Arc Ultra is debatable - but if you can claw some of your outgoings back then it becomes quite an enticing prospect :)

I would love to see a video on changing the cartridge. On old record players you used to be able to press play and the device would do the rest, and when the record finished the arm would lift of the record and return back to base, this doesn’t happen on the 1200GR?
