Avforums Podcast

This week; Phil talks about his recent trip to Bowers & Wilkins while Ed takes a look at the company’s 705 S3 speaker. There’re also reviews of the Philips OLED+907 TV, Pioneer’s VSX-LX505 AVR and a power amp from Parasound. Plus, after our recent trip to Las Vegas, we ask if the lack of consumer 8K TVs at CES 2023 indicates that the technology has failed to take off and what it means for TV manufacturers. There’s also our usual AV and Hi-Fi news roundup.

Back from Las Vegas, we kick off the year with a CES 2023 podcast special. There's plenty to look forward to with new QD-OLED TVs from Samsung, brighter MLA OLEDs from LG and Panasonic, and mini LED models across the board.

Our final podcast of the year is a Christmas special which sees the Hardware and Movies teams get together for a festive round table look back at the highlights of 2022 as they discuss the products, technologies, innovations and content that made the year stand out… or not!

We look at Hisense's U7H and T+A's Solitaire T headphones. We also discuss TV screen panel uniformity and adding a subwoofer to a 2-channel music setup. Fidelity in Motion's David Mackenzie talks about his work on disc encoding
