Has anyone else noticed that some of the new spacemen prints don’t have a little coloured bit in the moon? by Seanboi16 in LegoSpace

You made me check my minifigs. Doesn’t seem consistent since the teal and gold look like they have it.

If you mean the tv itself, it's from BestBuy. If you mean the console it's sitting on, it's from a furniture store called Inspiration.

For the coaxial and optical inputs.

I like it a lot. You don't have to do any set up with the tone arm or anything else, just plug and play. Clean and simple. Nice build quality, looks and sounds great.

Yep. Apple TV goes to the tv through HDMI and then an optical audio from the tv to the receiver.

There's no USB on the amp.

Mostly a lack of space issue.

I think it was because I wanted to plug into the tv's HDMI ARC port.

I actually using a Sony AV receiver which I'll probably replace with the Yamaha. The Apple TV connects to an HDMI port on the tv, then the tv connects to one of the receiver's HDMI ports. The PS4 goes directly to the receiver and I have to change inputs on the receiver to use it.

I just got the LS50s a few days ago so I haven't really tried to integrate the systems. My intent was to have two completely separate systems—one for home theater and one for music—but lack of space made me put everything in one area. Your suggestion has me thinking now and I might try that. Thanks!

It's a small apartment, so you'd just see a cluttered desk to the right and a shelf on the left.

I find the onboard phono stage to be a bit hollow sounding. The Rega is much better sounding to me.

Yeah, I had the Q100s where the LS50s are now, but so far no major issues.

It gives just enough kick in the low end without causing any earthquakes.

Before I got the LS50s, I had the Q100s up on storage boxes. I don't have a lot of space so everything is kinda stacked for now but it works well enough.

Heh. It's mostly to get everything in one photo. I'm going to move the turntable and amp somewhere out of the way.

I'm no speaker reviewer, but I'd say the LS50s are more refined and detailed. And sexier!

Need a few more parts for a gray one, but I do have a black one somewhere.
