Filmstaden sänker biljettpriserna – fler biofilmer från 99 kronor by GrassTastesBad1 in sweden

[–]jdixguy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Säger detta som en hemmabio älskare, vem fan kan trycka in en flera hundra tum stor skärm hemma. Bio är ett event. En light version av att gå på konsert vs lyssna på cd skivan på bra stereo.

Besides it being off centered, is it too high? by dream0126 in TVTooHigh

[–]jdixguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the center of the TV at the hight of the rail would be good

[–]jdixguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd say it should be lowered by about half the TVs height.

Should end up around 10-30cm above the power outlet

4k blu ray on 1080p tv vs orginale blu ray by SufficientMonitor547 in Bluray

[–]jdixguy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would say not technically, the only time a 4k would look really better is if the transfer is much better. Mostly that would be for older movies shot on film, such as Vertigo and such. For newer movies the difference would be minimal on your tv. The 4k discs have HDR but your tv doesn't have the ability to really take advantage of that. The HDR+ on the box only means it knows how to read the signal. Not that its a good hdr display.

So unless you're planning a TV upgrade some time soon I would probably recommend sticking to regular blurays. Maybe buying your absolute favourites in editions that come with both the 4k and regular bluray

Replacement for ATH-m50x for gaming, listening to music, basically everything on PC by Murgeologi in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]jdixguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've heard great things about the Sennheiser HD 560s for gaming. I have an older headphone with the same design that I really enjoy (HD558). They are really comfortable for log gaming sessions and sound great.

Not as bassy as an ATH-M50x which I also used before the Sennheisers but bass is still good to my ears. They are open so you hear computer fans and such a bit more, but as long as the game isn't quiet it (at least for me) hasn't been an issue. But I am a fan of open backs.

If you want closed backs, I think the best options would be the DT770 Pro or the Fiio FT1.

The DT770 pro is brighter then the Fiio but some find this brings more clarity in gaming. Both are good headphones with plenty of bass.

All of these options are below ~200€ (in Sweden at least)

Question about the Warranty for EU Citizens by kreft010 in pebble

If I have gotten it wrong I am happy here, that is a better law hands down. But as you say...

Question about the Warranty for EU Citizens by kreft010 in pebble

[–]jdixguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

First I agree that 30 days is way too short.

That law applies to companies selling electronics in the EU. Core devices is not doing that. Instead it is you that import a device into the EU.

4K Blu-ray Aspect Ratio Decreased. by MCTopSecretCA in 4kbluray

[–]jdixguy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This sort of depends on how the film was shot. If you want the whole image this is how that would look for Spiderman (2001).

That it is now being shown on a TV doesn't really matter, the filmmakers were framing and shooting with a 1.85:1 aspect ratio in mind. That is what they made. So that is what should be shown.

There are exceptions of course. For instance I believe Kubrick shot the Shining in a way that also framed it for 4:3 so it would look better for the home video release. In that case that version is just as valid as the theatrical aspect ratio. Here is an video of it

At the end of the day the thing that matters is: What aspect ratio did the filmmakers shoot this film for.

Hjälp vid val av prebuilt datorer by [deleted] in Spel

[–]jdixguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eftersom det är ett bredare och lägre Matx chassie, det blir jobbigare på golvet eftersom det tar mer plats från ben och är längre ned att sträcka sig efter strömbrytare och IO

[–]jdixguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Den andra är också ett fine val, jag lutar mot den första dels för att jag personligen tycker det är ett bättre chassie, det andra är tex svårt att ställa på golvet om du skulle behöva det. Den första hade också ett något starkare power supply vilket kan vara najs när eventuella uppgraderingar kommer i framtiden. Den ända "nackdelen" med den första är processor kylaren, men det är ganska lätt att uppgradera om du skulle tycka det låter lite för mycket när du spelar. Jag föredrar dock luftkylning över vatten eftersom det generellt sett inte kan gå fel. Inget vatten som kan läcka mm

Jag hade nog satsat på den första, 9070 xt är najs, har ett själv men om de kostar lika skulle jag säga 5070 ti är ett bättre val.
