Budget Atmos soundbars from TCL... ...will sure rock the local hometheater scene with it's low price that even Philips can't beat!

We can only hope that Philips brings in their Atmos gloves the lighter B95 to draw folks interest from Creative Or their heavy weight B97 ...to beat CREATIVE in sales!

Introduced in January in U.S. https://sg.creative.com/p/speakers/creative-sxfi-carrier Until today it's still taking registration for interests!

Number of months ago...i got a chance to lay my hands on a PHILIPS AVR like this @ CashConverters... ...unfortunately, due to my current residence space constrain, hv to give up. What a MISS!

My reference magazine back then was STEREOREVIEW. I do read some issues of WhatHIFI as well. The impression i get after going to few years of SAVE in Le Meridien Hotel gave me the confirmation that, ANGMOH reviews, ANGMOH hearing, ANGMOH palate... is DIFFERENT from LOCALS! So... eventually, i'm only impressed with 2 brands. SHERWOOD and PHILIPS, on the amplification stage. POLKAUDIO or TDL for speakers. Audio source device wise, will be dependent on what kind of digital to analogue over sampling they offer... such as PHILIPS BitStream conversion, or PANASONIC's MASH-Mu

Ahhh... i guess this is where my deep impression on AKAI being the oldest bird in Audio industry... My bad. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pioneer_Corporation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akai http://www.techmoan.com/blog/2016/2/26/auto-reverse-the-hard-way.html

Ahhh... AKAI!!! How could we had forgotten that "old" senior in the Audio World long before DOMPTN(denon, onkyo, marantz, pioneer, technics and NAKAMICHI)!

Introduced last year, but we're still not see it sold here by the HiSense sellers

Take a shot on mine!

AIWA gets hot somewhere when i was in my Sec.3 with their first "walkman* cassette player' that is slim and compact with the aide of NiCD bar type battery. AIWA's journey started with personal portable audio device, then to portable mini compo, by the time their products are non-movable, that's late 80s oredi... With those Mid-Fi systems that were not separable, cassette decks, Radio, turntable, and equalizer all blend into one box.

Ur uncle time it's either SANSUI or SHERWOOD or FISHER. Denon/Marantz/Pioneer/Kenwood creeps in after mid 80s.
