Best sites for oldies, esp. Fifties ?

I subscribed to Sirius in my car and listened to their 1950s section. It was horrible. I grew up in the Fifties. There were many great tunes and ballads. I recognized very little of what was on Sirius. No Belafonte , Gogi Grant, Bobby Darin, Johnny Mathis, Paul Anka. If played they were rare. Most of the junk on Sirius was somewhat "hard rock", often with high-pitched screaming. Few if any "Hit-Parade" tunes. Worse than no music at all. Dropped my... Best sites for oldies, esp.

LG C8 Lip Sync Issues

The entire sound experience with this LG model has been less than stellar. Frequent needs to reset AV/Settings, plus it feels like some options are being lost after an extended power off. However, what I find most frustrating is the sync issues with my receiver. I searched the internet and found quite a few references to LG/OLED/SYNC. For the most part, the descriptions matched my experience. Changing output to PCM solves the sync issue but at the cost of not having the best sound...

Hi All, i have a kef htb2se and it’s just made a booming sound that made us all jump. It was during a tv broadcast with music but hardly any bass. It’s certainly been louder on many many occasions. There is now no output from the sub at normal volumes (the lights are all on). If I go into the Audessey speaker setup and manually boost the bass it can be heard and doesn’t sound distorted.

Considering switching from BT to Virgin Media. Never experienced it before.

I've been with BT, then was with Sky, then back to BT. I only switched because of new customer deal cost really. My BT deal will soon be ending. I currently have the whole lot with them - fibre broadband, TV & phone. To be honest, we don't use the landline. I bet we don't make any more than 5 calls on it in a year.

Sennheiser PXC 550 vs Sony WH-1000XM3 vs Bose QuietComfort 35 II

They all sounded very good. I tested phones calls on the Sony and Sennheiser and according to the person on the other end the Sennheiser sounded much better from a microphone point of view. I still really like the Sony though but 2 major things are holding me back from them as opposed to the Sennheiser or...

LED or OLED ??

My current LG LED 40" tv is some 10/15 years old. Although its served us well, I think its time for a change. Been looking to replace it with a LG 65" 4K tv.

But would any great detail etc be lost by having a todays LED opposed to a OLED and seeing some issues with Screen Burn on some models. thanks from AVForums https://ift.tt/353ZIOd
