Used this site a few times now and really can't fault them. All books are stickered with RRP £12.99, boxset for £77.94, delivered from there for around 39 quid. Quality of the books is really good too.... impressed. Embossed covers are class. This was published in one groovy volume in the late 70’s / early 80’s. Got one for Xmas. Lost the dust cover.

Android TV Box 4GB RAM 64GB ROM Android 12.0 TV Box H618 Quad-Core Cortex-A53 CPU Support 3D 6K 2.4G/5.0G WiFi6 BT5.0 Smart TV box A but more pricey but very stable and fast. Plus I had a gift voucher so that mitigated the price somewhat. Edited January 5 by Haz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After going through a few of them I got a little Windows 10 box for £160 and it's been great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 A pair of Sony WF-1000XM4 in ear headphones, i've just got a cheap pair at the minute which needed upgrading and they looked cracking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a pair of these. For newer, better quality music they're amazing. Still trying to find the right settings to get the best out of them for older stuff. Make sure to play around with settings and EQ in the app. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 10 minutes ago, LFEE said: Thought on… https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/shield/shield-tv-pro/ I have the previous generation of NVIDIA SHIELD TV. Works well, is still pretty speedy. Biggest gripe is stupid Android TV and it's ad-tastic interface, but you can change to a custom Launcher if you're so inclined. Depends what you're looking to do as to whether it's worth spending decent coin on a more capable Android device. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just stream TV using various official and unofficial means 🙂 TBF my Amazon Fire still does a good job but it’s the old one so pre 4K version. Just thinking ahead this next 12 month so ideally 8K upscaling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Well I can't really weigh in on how well it'll deal with 8K upscaling, but it's dealt with 4k stuff with no issue, and compared to my stupid cheapo TCL Android TV, it is lightning quick. I dabble in a bit of tivimate and it's generally fine there too. Personally, I'm much more inclined to go with the SHIELD, with it's community of users, than a no name device that would cause me to have to do more of the tweaking legwork myself, rather than just following some guide off t'internet. But that might just be me being risk averse, given it's a device used by the whole family (and thus can't break/be diddled with by myself ). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahoneys Tache Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 This. I’ve owned at least one of all the prestige big brand acoustics over the years and sold them in favour of Japanese built guitars. This cost relatively fuck all. I’ve got three other guitars insured for £4.5k in total and I genuinely think this is the best one I ever owned. Any guitar wankers looking for a massive bargain, track one of these down. https://richtonemusic.co.uk/ayers-csl-12-fret-acoustic-guitar-australian-build-natural-case-2nd-hand/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Just spunked $1300 on the RTX 4080 GPU. We can't afford $8000 color correction for our Oman expedition film, since the music is costing a fair bit. Thankfully I am decent at that, so I can sort that part out. The damn card is over a foot long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
