B&W Media Room

I have added a Amazon Fire TV and an Apple TV.  I just started DirectTV Now streaming service and it has not been fun.  Lots of problems.  I am hoping they work them out soon.

The PS3 has a better picture for standard DVD's than my Pioneer DV-45a. Blu-ray movies look even better. I have heard that it is just as good as the Sony stand alone $1000 players.It does h...

I got rid of the Supercube 1 sub and replaced it with the Vandersteen 2QW. I am much happier with the Vandy sub. The Supercube was terrible for 2 channel music. The Vandy excels at it and also does...
