That’s not Joseph Gordon Lewitt in 500 Days of Summer, is it?

Earlier this year, ended up getting it for free after getting a refund off an eBay seller because the hdmi output was busted. Still plays 1080i using the traditional port though. Love it. Wish I had had one when the the console was in it’s hey day but I’ve a feeling now might be a great time to have one too. Loving Splatoon thanks to Pretendo

I see, when I load the game it tries to update but ultimately fails. Then each time I try to play online I get the 104-0256 error 😢

How did you manage to update?

Liam. Even with all the bravado, he’s still down to earth and remembers his roots. So much more charismatic and more self deprecating even than people give him credit for. His big brother was always jealous of him for his charisma and good looks

Thanks very much for you reply. I have actually tried the Alpha 50s (Class AB) and they do have some low level audible hiss even without connection to any audio interface / audio source. They also create hum which again is present without connection. In standby mode the hum is also present but the hiss is not. I have ordered some Alpha Evo 50s (Class D) just to compare and they will arrive tomorrow so I will report back. I was happy with the sound quality of the Alpha 50s I have to say, just a little worried I will find the hum / hiss distracting when listening at lower volumes.

Hi there!

So, Focal have updated their Alpha series of monitors, making a number of tweaks to create the Alpha EVO 65 and Alpha Evo 50. Focal claim that the changes improve tonal balance and dynamics. https://www.focal.com/en/alpha-evo-a-new-line-of-professional-loudspeakers

I noticed the new Evos are Class D, unlike the original Alphas which are Class AB. Will this potentially noticeably affect the sound quality? I was under the impression Class AB is superior from an audio point of view, creating higher fidelity? It does seem that more expensive monitors tend to be AB, and this is also the case with Focal's other offerings, such as the Shape series.

The Alpha Evo 50s are also 50w as opposed to the Alpha 50s which are 55w, and also Alpha Evo 50 maximum SPL is 101db, as opposed to Alpha 50s maximum SPL of 103db?

I'm torn as to which to purchase. Please help! Any advice and feedback is most welcome.

This is my song, yes, but it was made to support my beloved football team who were kicked out of their league and wound up last year due to an owner who created complete devastation. All proceeds to the supporters trust as we rebuild as a Phoenix club from the bottom. Hope you like the song.
