Stereo Amplifier Cambridge Audio AXA35 – great budget buy

0

Exclusive model of Richer Sounds.

Power up
At 35 watts per channel, the AXA35 is 40% more powerful than the smaller AXA25. This not only means that it is better to fill larger rooms, but also to provide a richer and more dynamic sound at lower volumes.

A step forward in quality
In addition to being more powerful, the AXA35 also improves the quality of internal components, giving better sound details and realism with less distortion. The toroidal power transformer and separate circuit boards for pre/power amplifiers are features that are usually only found in much more expensive amplifiers, making the AXA35 something of a giant hunter.

Comfortable features
Although the Cambridge Audio AXA35 is dedicated to giving the best sound possible, this does not mean that practical features have been left out. On the simplest AXA25, you’ll find the addition of a headphone jack and a system remote control that also works with Cambridge Audio CD players and streamers. The digital display makes it easy to control the operating state of the amplifier.

The entire connected system, including a turntable
With a sound input, the Cambridge AXA35 is the perfect amplifier for a vinyl-based system. But it doesn’t end there. Four RCA phono inputs are ideal for a CD player, streamer, game console and even set-top TV box. There is also a 3.5mm AUX input on the front which is useful for temporary connections, such as an MP3 player or smartphone. The audio output allows you to bring a signal to an external processor or recorder.

Turn on the music player or Bluetooth receiver
There is also a handy USB power outlet next to the audio inputs. This is perfect for powering Bluetooth receivers or smart audio streaming devices, such as the Google Chromecast Audio, without having to find another replacement power outlet.

New elegant style
The entire Cambridge AX series has a new look that catches the eye. Lunar Grey’s front panel contrasts with the top and black sides, making it a sharp focus. The minimalist button count gives you a timeless style typical of the Cambridge Audio brand. The wedge tear profile reflects the CX series, showing a strong family bond between the ranks.

Take your stereo sound to the higher level with the Cambridge Audio AXA35.

Enjoy amazing images and easy installation with the JVC LX-UH1W projector.

Support for the highest quality formats, including HDR10 and HLG
Designed to adapt to the latest UHD Blu-ray players and streaming services, the JVC LX-UH1 offers a wide range of support for high-resolution formats. Based on High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology, this JVC HDR projector also features HDR10 and HLG. HDR10 is widely used in Sony and Microsoft UHD video game consoles. HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma HDR) is a standard user-generated and broadcast format that is set to become the standard for transmitting 4K UHD signals.

Chipset DMD 4K for maximum resolution
Using a newly developed DLP 4K UHD DMD (Digital Micromirror Device) chipset, the JVC LX-UH1 offers a super sharp 4K resolution. With a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels, the LX-UH1 offers four times the resolution of the FHD 1080p projectors. This not only increases the detail of the image and sharpness, but also allows you to sit closer to the screen or even use a larger screen in the same room.

RGBRGB Color Wheel for Exceptional Contrast
With a RGBRGB color wheel, the LX-UH1W offers an exceptional contrast ratio of 100,000:1. This means that dark blacks are shown in harmony with brighter whites: the view from a dark cave in sunlight, for example, can now be clearly defined, as the eye sees it.

See the color exactly as the creator wanted, with 100% Rec.709 color space
This JVC 4K projector supports 100% Rec.709 color space (BT.2020 compatible) for exceptional color realism. When viewing HDR content, a two-position auto-open setting provides the best possible image. If you want to see the color exactly as the creator wanted, then this is the projector for you.

Highly flexible lens change for easy installation
Changing the lens adjusts the projection beam after the installation is complete. Being physically able to move the lens gives the ideal image alignment without compromising quality. With this flexible JVC LX-UH1W projector you get an impressive lens change : / – 60% vertical and – -23% horizontal. This makes the JVC perfect for complicated installations where the projector needs to be placed in a non-ideal location.

Versatile connectivity
Twin HDMI jacks allow you to connect a 4K UHD source and a TV set-top box or other device. One of the HDMI supports HDCP2.2 to handle 4K UHD transmission. Home automation is well served by an RS-232 interface and a 12-volt display trigger output to connect to an electric display. Photo:JVC

HDR Smart NanoCell LED TV LG 55 Freeview Play Freesat HD

0

With NanoCell technology for stunning image quality, this 55-inch LG NanoCell TV makes images more realistic than ever.

NanoCell technology: improved color and wider viewing angle
Using even-sized screen particles, this 55-inch LG TV offers greater color accuracy and the ability to produce wider viewing angles with less color distortion. This means that the color accuracy remains virtually unchanged at a 60-degree display angle. Finally, everyone in the room can enjoy the highest quality images.

Local Dimming for high quality contrast
Making the most of its NanoCell technology, this 55-inch LG TV is equipped with local Dimming. This ensures better contrast, with the ability to precisely control the darker and lighter sections of images. What this means for you is greater realism and most of the natural images possible from an LED display.

Improved processor to your heart
With the a7 Gen 2 processor at its center, this 55-inch LG TV is not only faster in processing, but produces a whole host of new features. Intelligent Artificial Intelligence (AI) benefits both image and sound for clearer images and audio to date.

The widest range of HDR support with Advanced HDR
LG continues its wide range of HDR support with this flexible TV. Technicolor Advanced HDR provides reference levels for image and color accuracy. In addition to the advanced HDR, this 55th LG TV also offers decoding for HDR10, HLG and Dolby Vision. HDR10 is widely used in Sony and Microsoft UHD video game consoles. HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma HDR) is a standard user-generated and broadcast format that is set to become the standard for transmitting 4K signals.

Dolby Vision for dramatic images
Dolby Vision optimizes HDR to simply deliver the sharpest and most accurate images possible. Dolby vision TVs, such as this LG, can decode generic HDR content and content that have been specifically encoded in Dolby Vision, a leading format in Hollywood and cinema. Dolby Vision also adjusts the image to take full advantage of the features of each screen and features an image optimized for each scene in specially mastered content.

AI image
Artificial intelligence comes to age with LG’s artificial intelligence image. This smart system compares the signal to a table of contents and automatically adjusts the image quality to the most accurate image possible. Using an ambient light sensor, the system adjusts the brightness of the display and other criteria (with HDR signals). The result is greater realism with a cleaner, sharper image.

AI Sound
If you fancy a more cinematic sound from the TV, then LG’s AI sound should be music to your ears. Using AI algorithms, AI Sound mixes two-channel audio with a virtual sound of 5.1, providing a much more immersive sound phase. The a7 Gen 2 processor also optimizes sound based on the type of content, providing clearer voices with news and drama. The powerful IA can also take into account the acoustics and design of your room and adjusts to give you the cleanest sound possible.

Improved Speaker System and Dolby Atmos
The advanced sound system uses a 2.2 speaker system with built-in subwoofers. Combined with the more powerful amp, this gives the audio a deeper and fuller sound of room, ideal for larger rooms. The Dolby Atmos processor decodes The Atmos soundtracks for a more immersive sound.

Upgrading to wireless surround sound with WiSA
WiSA stands for Wireless Speaker & Audio. The system wirelessly transmits sound up to 24-bit 96 kHz, 8 channels and includes Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. WiSA is flexible as you decide which speakers you want and where you want – it doesn’t even need to be from LG. Just search for WiSA-compatible speakers and decide how you want your audio to sound. – Need separate purchase of dongle.

Now with Apple AirPlay 2 and the Apple TV app
With support for Apple AirPlay 2, this 55-inch LG TV lets you stream effortlessly from your Apple device. Even better, support for the Apple TV app (Two 2020) lets you enjoy Apple’s 4K HDR content, with Dolby Atmos and high-quality viewing. Apple HomeKit support makes this LG highly compatible with the entire Apple system.

Smart Voice Control: ThinQ AI integrates with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa
Voice control has become much smarter with this LG TV. Press the Dedicated Voice Microphone button and ThinQ IA will decide whether your TV software or Google Assistant controls the command.

Kef Q550 5.1.2 Atmos Speaker Package with Uni-Q technology

0

The elegant design meets a powerful sound, with the KEF Q550 speakers.

World-renowned Uni-Q technology for a natural sound environment
The KEF Q550 uses a famous KEF technology to achieve great effect, with the Uni-Q drive unit. This involves placing the treble unit in the center of the woofer, creating a single-point source for the sound through the frequency range. The end result of this is a wider and cohesive sound that offers excellent stereos within a wider listening area.

Improved trebles
A new muffled load system greatly reduces distortion, giving a smoother and more detailed upper end. The “tangerine” waveguide system helps the treble to integrate more easily with the mid-range. Another improvement with the Q550 is the sealed upper compartment, which means that the treble and midrange are not affected by the air movements of the bass units.

Aluminium woofer cone with z-Flex envelope for low distortion
Made of lightweight but rigid aluminum, the woofer units are ready to respond and linear in their response. This helps to give realistic dynamics and low levels of distortion. Using technologies developed on its high-end Concept Blade speakers, the Q550 offers attention to details that you don’t normally see on speakers at this level. The woofer flex casing provides control of the upper cone, helping it blend seamlessly with the sharp unit for a more consistent and consistent sound.

Extra Woofer and ABRs twins to increase bass boost
Inside its stylish standing closet, the Kef Q550 houses no less than three additional low woofers. One of them is powered and is completely dedicated to the bass below the mid-range unit. Working rather as a subwoofer, this allows the Q550 to provide consistent and reliable bass that are deep and sustained. Further improving this, the two ARAVs (Auxcillary Bass Radiators) use the energy inside the enclosure to further improve and maintain the low response.

Plinth included for greater stability
Complete with bolted sockets, the Q550 offers excellent stability. The design lengthens the peaks to give the highest possible level of stability to such a thin speaker. This has the effect of reducing distortion, as the closet is more likely to stay in place and not ‘rock’ with louder music. However, another big piece of attention to detail is that the peaks are also easily adjustable from above – saving time and effort when it comes to setting.

Increase bass while saving space with KEF Q550 SPEAKERS.

Uni-Q technology gives the KEF Q650c the most realistic vocal performance.

World-renowned Uni-Q technology for a natural sound environment
The KEF Q650c uses a famous KEF technology to achieve great effect, with the Uni-Q drive unit. This involves placing the treble unit in the center of the main woofer, creating a single-point source for the sound through the frequency range. The end result of this is a wider and cohesive sound that provides a wide spread of sound between the front speakers.

Improved trebles
A new muffled load system greatly reduces distortion, giving a smoother and more detailed upper end. The “tangerine” waveguide system helps the treble to integrate more easily with the mid-range.

Aluminium woofer cone with z-Flex envelope for low distortion
Made of lightweight but stiff aluminum, the woofer unit is quick to respond and linear in its response. This helps to give realistic dynamics and low levels of distortion. Using technologies developed on its high-end Concept Blade speakers, the Q650c provides attention to details that you don’t normally see on speakers at this level. The woofer flex casing provides control of the upper cone, helping it blend seamlessly with the sharp unit for a more consistent and consistent sound.

ABR unit and separate bass for distortion-free sound, even at high levels
Using a separate dedicated bass unit eliminates the tension of the mid-range cone, ensuring that it is free to focus on mid-range frequencies. This is particularly useful at higher volumes and also ensures that the speaker tone does not differ unduly from the full-range front speakers. Helping this even more is an ABR (Auxcillary Bass Radiator) that uses internal energy to brag and keep lower notes.

Elegant design
With hidden bindings and no speaker grille plugs, the Q650c looks more stylish than ever. Available in black or white, the minimalist style is a design classic.

The perfect combination for a Q-Series home theater system, but also impressive with other speaker brands, too, the KEF Q650c offers true vocal realism.

World-renowned Uni-Q technology for a natural sound environment
The KEF Q350 uses a famous KEF technology to achieve great effect, with the Uni-Q drive unit. This involves placing the treble unit in the center of the woofer, creating a single-point source for the sound through the frequency range. The end result of this is a wider and cohesive sound that offers excellent stereos within a wider listening area.

Elegant design
With the bass door now moved to the back, the Q350 looks more stylish than ever. Available in black or white, the minimalist style is a design classic.

Ideal for quality stereos in small or medium rooms or as part of a quality AV system, the KEF Q350 is the smallest speaker you think is great.

Give your home theater an elevator with Q50a Atmos keF speakers.

Dolby Atmos Certification
Optimized for Dolby Atmos, you can now experience the wonder of this revolutionary format in your home. Equipped with a Dolby Atmos certified network, these KEF speakers have been tailor-made for Atmos sound. Producing a multidimensional and completely immersive sound, Dolby Atmos has been hailed as the greatest advance in surround sound for 20 years, so don’t miss it!

Ideal for other dimensional formats
In addition to Dolby Atmos, the three-dimensional soundscapes created by DTS-X and Auro-3D are also well served by Q50a speakers.

Famous Uni-Q technology for incredible accuracy
Q50a speakers use KEY KEF technology to achieve a great effect: the Uni-Q drive unit. This involves placing the acute unit inside the woofer’s throat, creating a single source of points for sound across the frequency spectrum. With all the Atmos sound effects coming from single-point sources on both sides, the accuracy of the sound is impressive.

Easy to place
Adding Dolby Atmos to your existing system is easier than you think. With an AV receiver with Dolby Atmos or DTS-X, you can use the existing 5.1 speaker configuration. Then simply add these speakers to the front channel on the left and right. They can be placed on top of existing front speakers or mounted on the wall just above. Once in its place, the height of the sound stage grows enormously, with effects such as rain falling and helicopters flying over given an incredible realism.

Designed to match KEF’s Q-series
Finishes to match speakers from keF’s Q series, Q50a speakers are available in black or matte white. The elegant finish makes them discreet and the narrow width of just 180mm means they fit on top of all but the most skinned speakers.

Experience a new dimension in sound, with the KEF Q50a.

Proof that the power of bass does not need to look ugly, the KEF Kube 10b is a nice subwoofer.

iBX for powerful bass can feel
KEF Kube subwoofers have iBX (Intelligent Bass Extension) for the deepest bass of the more compact enclosures. The iBX algorithm creates an extended bass depth that easily exceeds expectations for this sub dimension. Backing up this is a powerful 300-watt D-class amplifier. This is enough to power the unit of high-quality bass from 10″ to high levels and low frequencies. With a simple touch, the Kube 10b is ideal for both movies and music.

Controlled power
Despite its high-level power, the KEF Kube is more than just firepower. The sealed closet not only offers high levels of stiffness, but also gives a tight and controlled bass that is never exaggerated or neglected. A 3-position DSP (EQ) control allows you to adjust the Kube’s response to compensate for room acoustics and personal preferences. There is also a phase change. This allows you to reverse the phase, giving perfectly timed bass if the submarine is in front of or behind you.

Effortless with style
Most subs deserve to be hidden, but not the Kef Kube. With soft lines, a wraparound grille and a glossy glossy black top panel, the Kube 10b is a subwoofer you’ll be happy to have on display. As a mid-range model, the Kube 10b is perfect for medium-sized rooms and offers a perfect balance between mass and low power. Photo:Kef
