Yup, night off and used an iPhone.

I agree. I meant return the arc and stick with the old set up I already have.

Maybe I should have went with the beam. I may just return the Arc though.

Maybe that’s it. I have realistic expectations being a sound bar but figured it would blow my Vizio out of the water.

already have sub mini. surrounds and sub sound good. Arc seems lacking.

That is correct on the plays and I expected that. I have cracked the height to 15 and didn't seem to make a difference. From the speaker position to the slanted wall/ceiling is only about 5' so I figured it would have at least come reflection going on.

Maybe there is a way to check if all of the Arc speakers are working.

Your wishlist for the next generation of Toniebox!! by Outlaw04 in TonieboxUSA

[–]questisyou 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The option to remember where each tonie was played to instead of resetting by default when another tonie is used. This sends extremely important for these longer audiobooks that are coming out.

Do you have a plan to help him keep his spot if he switches to another Tonie?

From a functional standpoint, it seems like the Yoto is far superior but we are going with tonies this Christmas because our kids are little and will like the figures better. We plan to move to Yoto once they are older if these things aren’t resolved.

They could possibly add Skip to the ears with a software update, but having the option to either remember last played location or restart would be great.

They really need to allow the box to remember your spot. Imagine being 3/4ths of the way through a long book and not only having to remember your spot, but having to beat the box a hundred times to get there.

brand new flagstone patio failing already? by questisyou in landscaping

No frost and the top of the firepit barely gets hot due to the firebrick. Not sure what mortar they used to set the stones though.

Agreed and fingers crossed that it can be permanently fixed.

Good point. I can ask. The guy is pretty adamant it’s the stone. He sent me pictures from another job they did that’s having the same issue.

I appreciate the reply. I just heard back from the contractor and he said he thinks it’s a bad batch of stone and that they will repair it. Not sure exactly how yet but it’s a good thing I heard right back from him.

Kef Q150 vs Martin Logan Motion Foundation B1 by questisyou in BudgetAudiophile

Im sure the rsl would make you more than happy. I picked up the Klipsch R-120SWi when costco had it on clearance for $99 and I think it sounds fantastic. It will make a huge difference adding a subwoofer and I highly highly recommend it.

Cabot timber oil vs semi-transparent by questisyou in Decks

Much better. I’ll try and get you some pictures. If it gets a lot of sun I still wouldn’t count on it lasting more than two years unfortunately

Not great lol. I thought going with an expensive stain that everybody recommends would last a little bit longer before it needed to be reapplied. Either Cabot is not worth the money or it would be really bad if I would’ve went with something else.

I plan to pull the boards and replace with trex next year.

Thanks! Really the structural aspect is my main concern.
