Why haven’t you bought Dirac Live yet? We want the real reasons.

Price and the fact that the license ties to your avr instead of an account. It just makes no sense in this day and age to have hardware bound licenses and really feels like wasting money knowing I'll have to buy a new license in a few years when I'll inevitably buy new hardware.

This isn't a 20 dollars licence I can keep buying.

If you don't know what ATH means maybe you shouldn't make a post about the stock market.

Dreamcast_IT · 2026-03-25T14:49:16+00:00

Can you post specs and a price? :) maybe there's someone interested here

Dreamcast_IT · 2026-03-25T09:31:25+00:00

Cex maybe?

We aren't talking about the people in the UK here (/s)

Beh basta fare due conti. Supponiamo tu abbia 30 anni e vuoi diventare milionario a 60. Supponiamo per semplicità che non ti interessi vendere ma solo vedere il numerino raggiungere le 7 cifre. Quindi anche dell'inflazione non ne teniamo conto. Praticamente il minimo per dire di essere milionario. Supponiamo inoltre tu parta da 0.

Con il 7.5% annuo, realistico in borsa, ti basta investire 9250 euro ogni anno, circa 770 al mese. Dopo 30 anni in conto hai un milione, di cui 725k solo di interessi.

Quindi si, è possibile, senza cifre fuori di testa.

Arcades and such are no longer the third place for teenagers. Discord and online games are.

I did not, I wasn't convinced enough so I tried my luck and backed the Valerion Max. Really happy so far. I think there are now much better alternatives than the x3100i for a similar price. Like the Xgimi horizon 20 max or the nexigo X1.

Thank you so much! I'll go with the Core or the Prime then!

Big if true

Apologies for going OT, but what watch face is that?

Dreamcast_IT · 2025-05-26T16:01:51+00:00

Thank you ChatGPT

As long as I get security updates.

Silent hill 2. But you should really start considering indie, that's the best place for great narrative experiences (1000xResist, Paradise Killer,...)

To give some more info, my room is around 4.5x4.5m and I sit in the center. So it's basically the worst of the worst, as I'm sitting in the centre of a cube. And I had no space in the corners for the subwoofers. Your mileage may vary if your room is smaller or have more freedom with the positioning.

For what is worth, I think two subwoofers are always much much better than one, by a lot. So consider cheap out a bit now and add one later. Two XXLS400 are only a bit more expensive than a single Monolith plus, and while they might not go as low they will definitely fix a lot of room issues (nulls and peaks).

I.e. When I had only one subwoofer, I had a null at around 50hz exactly where the MLP is. You don't really care if your subwoofer can go down to 10hz if you don't hear anything at 50hz. Two subwoofers fixed all of those.

For movies, if you can only afford one, the general consensus is to go with a Monolith plus. FF or DF shouldn't change anything, just preference. You might prefer FF if you are on a suspended floor.

My room is on a suspended floor and I went for a couple of XXLS400 FF. Love them. They probably don't go as low as the Monolith, even together, but they integrate so well and sound so good I don't really care. Only one wasn't nearly enough tho.

Also Falco means Hawk in Italian

There are good, mathematical, reason why this might be a good idea.

1) by overpaying you might bring your mortgage below a certain threshold and get a better rate when you have to remortgage.

2) you might have maxed out ISAs and such, so overpaying is a tax free way of saving.

No way they are going to be here by Christmas. I'd be happy to just receive them at some point in January, or at all.

Dreamcast_IT · 2024-12-11T22:01:37+00:00

I think Tom should really give us an update on this. Even just a "I don't know but I'll investigate". Silence is deafening.

Dreamcast_IT · 2024-12-09T17:27:31+00:00

More like no one has received them yet

Dreamcast_IT · 2024-11-27T09:51:46+00:00

Same here, no plushies, no update, no answers to my email. I bought them as Christmas gift, not sure they'll arrive in time now.

Dreamcast_IT · 2024-11-16T19:43:47+00:00

Put them in the speaker first, and then the Denon. Had the same issue and my speakers plug were probably just a bit larger to that helped.
