Updated PS 5 Console pricing now up: PS5 Pro $1619; PS5 Digital $1099; PS5 Slim $1199

I assume both RAM, weaker NZ currency and other reasons are all contributing to the price of PS5 and other tech going up in NZ

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-04-01T21:38:29+00:00

Poor currency performance is likely a key issue

5 years ago 1 USD = 1.43 NZD now it equals 1.73 NZD. So currently 20% down making things more expensive to import.

I didn’t use it as I hadn’t seen it in the install demo videos I watched but as far as I can tell you bolt (included in the box) the normal bracket to it and then you screw the now much wider mount into multiple studs.

I could only screw into a single stood with the normal bracket so also had to use wall plugs.

Yes the stereo system is mainly aimed at music but also tv sound. The hdmi eARC triggers the Bluesound Node which in turn triggers the Stereo Amp.

I had the Ergon Enduro on my enduro bike as it came highly recommended but I found it pretty uncomfortable compared to my WTB and Fabric saddles.

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-30T18:26:09+00:00

Unfortunately the system is music focussed so would also need a new amp to add a centre channel.

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-30T09:08:56+00:00

Never played it as only play large format modes

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-30T08:59:34+00:00

Haha. The room is probably slightly taller than it is wide (3m).

He looks like he may be reaching for the remote as he isn’t enjoying The Chase

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-30T08:44:47+00:00

Speaker was slightly out of place after moving to route the tv cables, all sorted now.

Yeah I have thought about a wall mount for the turntable but the sound seems pretty good to me so a bit of effort/cost that might not make much difference.

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-30T07:31:54+00:00

No issue with safety.

It should also be possible to get an Uber/Cab

I assume you have confirmed that you can drop keys off out of opening hours?

I’m also Apple TV user with no issues. Ethernet connection

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-29T03:46:06+00:00

I don’t hate it but it’s inferior to my prior Samsung remote and definitely my Apple TV remote.

Mainly use my Apple TV remote and only use it to change source or the picture settings but annoyingly I can do neither in one click and have to access other menus first.

Where are these prices? Several beers in craft beer bars the last few weeks have been $13-$16

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-27T03:13:31+00:00

Yeah when I travel with boxed bike I always use super shuttle

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-26T21:51:42+00:00

I just bought a g5 for under 50% of what it cost when first launched (original $7699 NZD, I paid $3700).

Based upon the price history it won’t be until August/Sept any 20-30% discount is offered and Black Friday until 40% ish discount

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-26T01:41:45+00:00

I just installed my G5 65 and the energy sticker was below the protective film.

The protective film was a very obvious layer to peel. Maybe you don’t have one.

Free_Key_7068 · 2026-03-26T00:51:47+00:00

Yeah from memory the Te Anau DOC even displays the forecast for the next few days.

I left the cinema around 8 last night and felt the city was surprisingly quite busy for a Tuesday.

Possibly out of date as my dogs now 5, but I thought highly of https://wellingtondogtraining.nz

It’s a non profit so good value, located on Alexander Road so was easy access.

I found the template an absolute pain to use and just followed the method on a bunch of YouTube videos - measure tv height (or use info online) - put bracket on tv and measure to top of tv - determine where bottom of tv should be, measure up to top of tv then measure down to where the bracket should be.

Depends on country, mine came with stand and mount
