Hello council, long time lurker first time poster here. Got a new entertainment center for the setup, and now we’re mounting the tv to the wall so that the receiver and turntable can sit on top of the center. Because of that, I’m concerned that the tv is going to have to be mounted just a little high, and I wanted to know, what’re your guys’ thoughts?

Looking at it right now, the center of the tv will be mounted about 43-44 inches from the floor, and ideally I’d have it at 40 inches from the floor. The tv itself is a 48” diagonal screen. Too much or do you think it will be acceptable?

Once I have it mounted I’ll be taking photos to upload for further consideration from the council.

Hi friends, looking to increase my physical media collection and want to start getting CD’s.

My big question is, can I use a DVD player as a DVD player and as a CD player in the same system? I would connect the player to my AVR that I’m using as a preamp, either using analog RCA or digital optical.

With that being said, and I know for the DVD player I’m better of asking r/HomeTheater, but any recommendations for CD / DVD players?

Destroyed the zipper on my big insulated coat (that was frankly too warm) last season, so I was usually running a undershirt, a fleece, and then a drug rug on top (very boujie I know). Want to get a hardshell jacket to keep the wind out, and was looking at the beta AR jacket but don’t like the current reports of quality decline.

I know that companies like OR, Norrona, and Rab to name a few will have similar options, but which from these companies are the direct contenders to the beta AR? Any advice is welcome and appreciated, thanks!

Or, make an argument for why I should spend more on a turntable, but no higher than 1000. Thanks! :)

Hello everyone,

As the title suggests, I need some help with HEOS. I recently got a Marantz SR5015 receiver to go with my pair of tower speakers, and they went great for a month, until today when I noticed that while streaming spotify through the bluetooth source, sometimes there would be an instance in the song where it would clip, stop and start real real quick. Keep in mind that I never connected the receiver to my home network, nor did I bother downloading the HEOS app or the Marantz remote app, as I prefer the physical remote.

Well, I went looking for the solution to that, and the internet told me that I would need to download a new HEOS firmware update. So, I connected the receiver t
