Doesn’t anyone here just use cruise control?

Have a scan at Falcon 4. The community update is called BMS, and gives an amazing overhaul, including new maps, aircraft, and updates to all sorts of systems. They even added VR support. Amazing

Some thoughts for consideration: - sound proofing. If it’s a build from scratch, you might aswell update the interior panels to also have sound proofing capabilities - lay in at least one additional dedicated mains spur - have a think about colours and lighting in the room. Certain paint is...

If you’re ever down here, give me a shout

Balls, I’m down in Surrey, and I’d be very uncomfortable to post it. It supports upto 2496. Shame really, as you’d have been able to test it out against some new gear to see how it compares

Where in the country are you, I’ve got an old Meridian unit if you wish to test out how old/not cheap compares to new

If you’re in the price area for Naim gear, these might be worth considering: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256442369921?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=FIPrnQ4yRmO&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=Hal1pJpJTxq&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY...

What’s the source and amp? Pointless putting good speaker on the backend of a pants source.

I currently use a Quest Pro, which when I bought it was a good solution as it was on sale and the specs are still pretty decent. The key benefits over the Quest 3 being the local dimming, better optimised lenses and eye tracking. The eye tracking being the most important, as we currently have...

The Falcons look lovely. I had a pair of the Quad 11s for a while. Lovely looking, but left me rather underwhelmed.

The NLR seat looks like a decent turnkey solution, ie already designed and probably very easy to setup. There’s a lot of positive users in the DCS community. Another option worth considering is a decent 8020 Aluminium frame solution. Once you’ve got some confidence about using it, it’s VERY...

Here’s a question for other QP users who use prescription lens inserts. My lens inserts are from VR Opticians. Great lenses, however there way of attaching them in the QP is frankly a bit pap. I had a Pico4 for a while, and they facilitated magnetic mounting, which were ace. In the QP it’s...

The last set of stands I had weighed approx 30kg (each) and were full of dry sand, so were basically dead. What kind of cabinet do you have that’s more solid?

Play it how ya like want, no one is forcing you to use tougher characters. For example, you can use the provided characters and avoid multiclassing. That on its own increases the challenge.

Baldurs Gate 3. Took my time and only completed it on the 3rd walk through. 333hrs in total. Awesome game

As per above, no genuine single best car: 330i E90 was a brilliant all rounder Corolla GT Twin can (AE82) owned and loved a couple of them MX5s, have owned 3 All the same, I’m going to nominate the S13 200SX that I owned. The seats weren’t great, the handle on the sunroof broke and the...

Here’s a classic example of how newer masters have screwed over the DR; https://dr.loudness-war.info/album/list/1/year/asc?artist=Deep%20purple&album=Machine Checkout the DR for the 80s CD version and then for the more recent re-master. Progress eh!

A very interesting point. I believe that the "loudness wars" started in the 90s, with music being ever more heavily compressed. Vintage (old) vinyl clearly was before that, and so doesn't have anything like as much. An interesting point being that a lot of earlier CDs also don't have it. The...

If you don’t already have a bunch of vinyl, my opinion is no. Some more thoughts: - as already mentioned, CD has better technical specs of dynamic range and low end bass - pretty much anything recorded in the last couple of decades will have been recorded in digital format. My assumption is...

Appropriate positioning of speakers can make a massive difference to the performance of speakers. If you really don't care enough to be bothered, just get an Alexa and save some cash.
