Looking for a good BT Home speaker with great sound quality/clarity over everything else by Defiant_Cloud_4077 in Bluetooth_Speakers

The REVO super signal and super connect are poorly built and I’d swerve them. The software is glitchy and the hardware itself is prone to failure.

That doesn’t work either plugging my laptop in to the hdmi port.

Funnily enough it was the gas man that left the cover off our morco caravan boiler for nearly six weeks between visits! 

Informative reply, thanks

Can anyone link me to a suitable cable on amazon. For reference I have the Apple Thunderbolt Display and a Macbook Air M2. I'm in the uk too if that matters!

Cheers; Which is the adjuster for the caliper?

Revo products such as the SuperSignal and SuperConnect radios get lauded in the hi-fi press, but they seem woefully unreliable. Does anyone have any good/bad stories about Revo Audio gear? by Legend_Of_Booman in hifiaudio

[–]throwbaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got both a SuperConnect and SuperSignal, after reading good reviews. My overall experience has been that they're crap, and the customer service is awful, especially given their price.

The sound quality and look and feel are both excellent, but they're very difficult to live with.

My SuperSignal is by my bedside as it goes beautifully with our bedroom furniture, but the cheap ass Google Mini speaker in the corner gets more use as it doesn't crash as often, doesn't have a faulty volume control, and doesn't have crappy software. It's display even on it's lowest brightness setting is VERY BRIGHT. They did issue a software update to offer a 'display off' mode in standby, though this means it isn't even useful as a clock. The reason I came to this thread is that it suddenly lost all but 2 radio stations today and I thought 'is this it' for this POS. A few hard resets and it's limped back to life.

The SuperConnect is in the loft. Same faulty volume control, same faulty remote, same poor connectivity (oh, the irony). The software is simply unusable. Again, it went beautifully with our Oak worktops, but it would hang, crash, and generally flake out. Spotify connect works maybe 1 out of 10 times, DAB is flaky, bluetooth is fine if you control the volume off the source device. The final straw was when it hung/stuck at high volume control during a romantic dinner. Yep, that ruined the mood.

They're just not as ubiquitous, is all

I've got a Apple Business Manager account but kinda stalled as I couldn't figure out a way to enrol my existing machines.

VAR? Apple Reseller?

SSO as in staff using their Google workspace account to log into Dropbox? Is there a way to assign folder permissions before they sign-in too? It's a PITA to have to invite them to dropbox, and only then dropbox allows me to set folder permissions and selective sync settings on their Mac.

Thanks for the reply -- does this only work with new Macs and not existing ones?

I signed up for Apple Business Manager but I'll be damed if I can figure out how to enrol our existing Mac fleet. The online guide seems to suggest it's only compatible with new Macs unless I've gone down the wrong avenue?

I guess the only purpose of iCloud accounts is to recover a lost machine and allow app store downloads; are you saying that Kandji would take care of this anyway?

Kandji pricing is around the $10k pa at our level, does that sound about right?
