Re: What have you just bought?

An Onyko AV Receiver and some surround sound speakers with meaty subwoofer. Loving the sound from it and all the internet features and the InstaPrevu for all the inputs is pretty slick too. One of those guilty purchases as there are other more needed things that should have taken priority.

Re: What have you just bought?

Not just bought, but a couple of weeks ago I acquired my first android phone, a Samsung Galaxy S running on Android2.1 and I have just about got it running as I like. Android4.2.2 running with CyanogenMod 10.1.2 rocks. As some of you already know I spent a fair bit of time with my eyes closed and fingers crossed.

Setting up Ovivo on a rooted phone however had me tearing my hair out, but got there in the end and Ovivo is proving to be well worth the effort.

Am just waiting now for my new SD card to arrive before I fill my socks up with frivolous apps.

Happy bunny.

Mines pretty much bottom of the range but packed with features that I will actually use. It's only 5.1 but my thinking was get a cheap one now to last me a few years and upgrade to a better 7.1 + 4K in the future. TX-NR414 is the model.

Got a Pioneer Sub with it, 160 watt peak but think that means in reality it's 100.

Never really got in to all the audio stuff before and just wanted something better than the tv speakers and didn't want a soundbar. The DLNA means I can play music from the NAS directly or do it through XBMC or even on the phone. Loving the Vtuner, was so simple just to choose Ambient music and it just streams perfectly

Still lots to setup and play with but CEC seems to be working, my tv remote can control the amp and the Pi/XBMC connected to it.
