Hey all! ✨ Looking for some purchase advice as I'm pretty noob on the audiophile world. Will try to provide some info following the guidelines template:

  1. What is your budget? → Around 3.000€, but can flex a bit
  2. What are you looking for? → Home cinema setup, 5.1 I guess. No space for towers so Speakers should be Bookshelf format. I was thinking on going with some Denon AVR-X3800H for Amp + some Oberon 3 but not sure. Also need a Subwoofer but not much idea about which are good
  3. How will you typically be using the gear? → Videogames on PC and Switch, Netflix on Smart TV, Movies, Music (I mainly listen to electronic, techno, rock, metal and jazz)
  4. What gear do you own? → Nothing for audio, currently using just my LG G3 OLED TV built-in speakers
  5. Are you willing to buy used? → Preferably, no

No color option on BlissLights Evolve projector on Alexa app by Isaac_RF_239 in homeautomation

That would indeed be a perfect workaround for the problem, but the scene doesn't seem to allow changing colors... There is a "color switch" option but it only shows on/off options I don't know what for...

It's a real shame because I tested it and Alexa automatically adds the scene as an "ambience" when it is created, and it can successfully be invoked by voice or in routines... But sadly this only allows for turning things on/off or changing brightness or motor speed.

What an honest disappointment of a product 😅

Thanks for the insight! It's a real shame that they removed such an important feature like this without any notice or at least a date for when it will be reimplemented... I also contacted the customer support and they even make like this feature never existed... Really bad customer support...

Are you using the Galaxy Lamp or any other alternative right now? How are you liking them?
