Yeah, bikes seem like one of those areas where someone in marketing invents a new label and then everyone in the hobby feverishly adopts it…

$3-4k for a rear motor bike...

I have multiple Bosch products that have been absolutely bulletproof and I fully expect to keep going to 20 years (dishwasher, heat pump…

Cheers, yeah I was being vague but looked at the sensitivity (I build/restore old speakers for fun). I find the Kefs are louder than 88db…

Great deal, great album, thanks.

Cheers, I'm tossing up between this and its bigger siblings (2800/3800) and trying to work out if the extra $$$ really adds much. I'm…

How has the 1800H been? What speakers are you driving and do you feel it has enough power?

These Denon 'deals' are pretty poor IMHO - good receivers obviously, but it reeks of resale price maintenance by Denon, where prices are on…

I got some of these a while back and got 2 years of heavy use out of them...

Thanks, grabbed one with the coupon last night - briefly there was no lightning deal and no coupon.

Controversial chair but I absolutely love mine - only chair that doesn't eventually give me crippling back/shoulder pain.

Deal expired, sadly.

Exactly - it's possible to replicate this so long as you don't care about convenience, form factor, audio quality or user interface!

A PC would use a lot more power, be physically huge and again would require specialised hardware to deal with the DAC/output side of…

What BT dongle/mini PC has all the proprietary streaming services ready to go and proper physical hi-fi standard outputs and a proper DAC?…

The use case for this is that you have a piece of permanent hi-fi equipment that doesn't have networking capabilities and you want to add…

I have a WiiM Pro and the app is great. Doesn't require an account or any always online crap, either, and can stream from local sources.

Yep, these are fantastic for adding streaming to vintage hifi systems.

I have this but the MaxV version and it's wild how good it is. Our floors always have toys/clothes/books etc as well as power/speaker…

People play Steam Deck on a TV? Huh.

Why would you get a Steam Deck and then get a separate controller?

Ridiculous hot take, but I do agree that the money side of it is now completely stupid. Like a lot of things post-COVID, camera makers seem…

What's your opinion on the whole "asking for a discount" thing? Shouldn't the store just charge the best price it can instead of rewarding…

I have had great experiences with JB and warranty issues. I had a problem where I bought a DJI drone which had a noticeable level of…

The problem with this is that there is no 'just out of the warranty period' when it comes to statutory consumer rights, and JB may still be…

I don't get why these deals are limited to new/port in customers. I'm on a SIM only plan with JB Hifi so... (profanity) me apparently?

WTF? How long has this been running? Just flew to Tokyo on ANA and there was not one whisper of this offer...

I guess it depends whether you want retro games or modern games running at a terrible resolution for 17 minutes before the battery dies...

It's definitely way worse post-COVID, people selling used goods and cars still seem to think we can't get them new.
