No more SONOS for me

Won’t be buying anymore Sonos.. I curse them everyday for this last miserable upgrade forced on us. Sony Tv volume is at 20..sounds like a whisper.

    @Bumper 

    Again, no surprises there; I have smaller KEFs in one music zone that do excellent tight bass, and the R3 units you have look very bass capable as well.

    There is actually another useful purpose those lamps are rendering when watching movies late at night.

    A completely dark room except for the TV screen causes eye strain from watching and those lights may help with that. Even if their surround effect is nominal in your case.

    Ideally though the light should come from behind the screen as a backlight that leaves the screen dark; I do that in my cheapskate way by taping a LED strip around the rear frame of the TV and it does a very good job of making the colors on the TV pop out more by casting a backlight on the rear wall. I just make sure it is set to warm white and not the red/blue options that are also available as an option for the strip. The strip is powered from a USB socket at the rear of the TV. 

    @Corry If you are asking me to stay on topic being the OP topic, I guess this is a transgression😊

    But the OP may not mind…

    In any case, this will be the last off topic post here.

    Hi All,

    But the OP may not mind…

    It’s not the Original Poster who has the final say.

    In any case, this will be the last off topic post here.

    Correct.

     

    As this thread has been off-topic for some time now, I’m now going to close it to further discussion.
