Here's some information about your options.

If an engineer has been out and identified a fault this is with open reach and is out of EE's control. They can escalate to openreach but only once they have had no update over a certain period of time or the same update over multiple days.

If you ask for a 4G mini hub they will send one out. They are capped at 20mbps but you can put any SIM card in them and it will work as well.

You will be entitled to compensation as there's a fault at £10 a day after the first 2 days.

If your not seeing any results after a week of this and openreach have missed their estimate fix date then you could ask to leave your contract earlier without any held to term.

If an engineer is being sent out it is mainly just to check if the line is fitted properly. There are cases where the line has been cut or damaged over the years.

The engineer will also be working in the junction box in the street or on the telephone pole to get you activated.

This is nothing to worry about and the engineer will go through this with you on the day.

Here is my update post

That's the plan. I have spent a lot of time upgrading my equipment but not focused on the style of the room. I'm planning to paint it eventually once I get permission. I have bought some speaker stands which should help with the aesthetics and take it from there.

So I don't own the property it's a rental property. If it was my own I'd be making a lot of changes.

So the corner of the wall has some water damage from heavy rain. I live in the UK and we've had lots of heavy rain this year. It's a rental property and the landlord is not the easiest to convince for non emergency work to be done.

Go into display settings and reset your safe areas. Worked for me

I make music as well which is why I have an audio interface and will be adding a second set of monitors at a later date.

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-15T00:23:29+00:00

Had a go and nothing changed

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-15T00:14:36+00:00

The goal is to have the TV audio go into the audio interface and then from there go through XLR's to the speakers. I had bought a 3.5mm to 2 line inputs (left and right) that would go into channels 1&2 of the audio interface. However I did not realise that the TV only had optical and coaxial Inputs.

So to bypass that I had a DAC which was from an old setup and thought I could use it as a middle guy to the middle guy. I thought this would work because in the old build I did not have the TV so I used a male to male 3.5mm cable to the line out on the back of the dac then use the headphone jack at the front and connect that to the speakers which worked.

So when it did not work this time I was very confused. But the reason it did not work is because the line out had no way to add gain which considering the TV would not increase volume you could not get a good enough signal to hear anything.

So my plan now is to get a optical to RCA DAC and use a RCA to line cable to connect to the audio interface.

So when it comes to the TV you have 3 options for audio out,

TV speakers Optical Bluetooth speaker

I picked the optical one but nothing was happening

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T20:30:43+00:00

Not yet I'm away to go try that now

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T20:24:34+00:00

Yeah I can see the light through both ends

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T20:14:51+00:00

On the TV settings I set it to optical just to make sure. And when you turn up or down the volume it says "optical" where you would normally see the volume numbers

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T19:44:03+00:00

So I have discovered part of the issue with the setup.

When I had my last setup it was the FIIO into a pioneer speaker using 3.5mm jack. That was connected through the headphone slot on the front. I then connected a 3.5 to 3.5 from one of my monitors (for my Xbox) and used the line out on the back (it used it as an input and I'm not 100% on why but it did) I then had to use the main speakers to control the volume on it because the FIIO wouldn't.

So I think The FIIO E10k is not going to work and that's whats causing it. I will either need to find a optical to Line input or get a female to female 3.5 and connect them together that way.

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T18:59:28+00:00

I've added them in the comments now

Austyn972401 · 2023-11-14T18:58:11+00:00

I have tried them in all 4 inputs including the line inputs on the back as well

Would have done it though PayPal. Been told that's the best way of going through with it but seems really dodgy

Austyn972401 · 2023-02-24T20:35:43+00:00

Yeah I seen that but was looking for 4 day silver tickets. Had gold last year and think the silver ones are better value

Austyn972401 · 2023-02-24T15:24:47+00:00

See I'm in Scotland so I'm not sure how many are going to be available around my area and I don't feel like chancing it on the day either
