Picture of Last Items You Bought (NO WEAPONS)

jamesinaz · 09-10-2020, 12:02 AM

Today was a perfect storm of delivery of stuff I ordered over the last few weeks.

First the pool monster. Yes it is working great, Love it.

Nesxt up my new Ecco golf shoes. Old ones were falling apart and got them just in time. A sexy model wearing them. LLOL

Next we have my wifes new computer. I hated buying this as it is made in China but my wife isn't techo savvy and knows how to use a Mac so it wasn't really a choice.

Last one I ordered yesterday, Chewy is awesome for pet stuff. I do't know how they do it but here it is being checked out y two of the furballs.

I've got 100k on my Zed and haven't changed them either. That will be happening before next spring for sure!

These Sony 65" A8H 4K OLED TVs went on sale so I bought a couple. Picture is amazing. Now I need new soundbars, preferably with Dolby Atmos - any recommendations?

Aw crap - you ruined the Christmas surprise! Now I have to come up with something different for you....

It doesn't look like much now, but below is what I want to turn it in to. If I can find a surgeon (magician?) who can make me look like him too I'd be even happier!

rebekahb · 09-10-2020, 08:20 PM

2 masks since they are now an accessory😷

I may do one day - right now I have 4 cars and only a 3 car garage, and the Lotus isn't even here yet! I am building a new home with an 8-10 car garage in the next 18 months, so may not start this until then.

If you're shopping for an active/powered soundbar I'd suggest your look at RTings and see what they suggest. Just know that you're kinda asking what non-alcoholic beer is best. Active soundbars legitimately have their place, but they're no substitute for a full sized system... just like non-alcoholic beer.

I'm not a watch guy. The nicest watch I had was a Citizen and then an Apple Watch. I finally go something a little nicer, TAG Heuer Gulf Formula 1:

Also ordered a Formula 1 bracelet because I hate leather straps.

HFW003 · 09-11-2020, 08:46 AM

We built a house a couple of years ago and because we haven’t been able to travel we are finally getting around to getting some of the extra furniture and pieces we wanted.

Nice! I have a F1 also but not a Gulf. I'm not a big leather band fan either, but I like the blue.

Thanks for the site reference, - I actually have a dedicated & custom built home theater that is properly designed; these TVs are for casual viewing, hence only the need for soundbars.

Speaking of soundbars, researching them is a pita. One site recommends an entirely different top 5 than the next site. I usually go by aggregate reviews of Bestbuy, Amazon and Crutchfield but they're all over the place.

My top considerations so far include:

Sonos Arc with subwoofer and surrounds
LG models
Vizio models
Samsung models

21F90M5C · 09-11-2020, 12:09 PM

and another one

I really like my Bose soundbar - has worked really well for me for 4-5 years now. Would look at those if considering Sonos.

Ordered a Laco flieger watch. Ive always wanted a flieger but I dont know if id ever wear it so I ordered the cheapo version. If I like it Ill probably give this to my dad and order a Stowa.

Thanks! I should have mentioned that I am looking for a few requirements:

Support for Dolby Atmos (possible with ARC HDMI input)
Support for Dolby DTS:X (only possible with eARC HDMI input)

The new Sony TVs I bought have been confirmed to pass through both those audio formats via eARC, so if I want both, then the soundbar needs to have eARC compatibility as well.

This narrows down the field quite a lot. Rtings rates the current best Atmos soundbar as the Samsung HW-Q90R, and from my reviews across the web, it seems to be among the top 3 contenders. I'm still doing my research, I like this kind of thing!

21F90M5C · 09-11-2020, 05:08 PM

It’s not an original Tag Heuer watch

It’s a Tag watch face for the Apple Watch

Picked up 3 of these to replace the 3 I've had in my office for probably like 9 years.
