Big changes in setup

Couple of months ago I've sold the following B&W 805N , CM1 and speaker stands with speaker wires.

Sadly, Emotiva UPA-2 was sold as well and I've shifted my CXN and QED interconnect cables overseas. 

New in system are TV Hitachi : http://tv.hitachi.eu/eu/en/product/58/43HAK6150/specifications .

It's best value buy I could find . I like smart features and ultra HD picture.

I have new black B&W 805S speakers .  I was very sad selling 805N so I had to grab these. 👍

I also have brand new B&W speaker stands (haven't install them yet) and new The Chrod Company speakers cables.

Currently I listen to my old Mission 702 speakers , while sooner or later will sell those and bring back the B&W's.

Rotel RA1060 is now heart of my system as I prefer amp that doesn't take up too much space.

 



 

Ipad 10.2 inch

It's been a year or so since I've sold my old ipad 3 and bought new 2019 10.2 inch Ipad 7 (WiFi,32GB Black). It's faster ,lighter and it has slightly bigger screen. What more to write about ipad? It's the best tablet you can buy at thi price. Period.

New android phone Mi9 SE

 After over 4 years of using my old iphone 6 time has come and I've replaced it with new Xiaomi Mi9 SE phone. I've got Redmi Note 8 for my wife and she is very happy with it.

 I've took version with 128 GB blue in color as that was the only one left in shop. Phone comes with one year warranty and so far it's been with me over 2 months. I have to say phone is really good. I have no regrets of buying it as it's hardware works well and it's a sleek looking devide as well with nice screen.  

Moving from iOS back to Android wasn't a easy task and it took me a while to transfer all my things.

Bigger (Samsung) AMOLED screen is welcomed due to  bigger viewing area however accidental touch of any edge of the screen will result in pressing things wrongly when I play game :P.

 Customization is always good, dual SIM cards slot , IR port as well as on screen built in fingerprint reader are great features. 

So , what I don't like? Xiaomi camera app sucks. I use Gcam instead.
No headphone jack. No memory card slot.Some built in apps come with free adds.
But considering price paid - I can't be bothered about it.It's still a great phone. :)

Many reviews can be found online ;
