    the only thing the web page is missing is the ability to set the active input- that's really all I need kef connect for, everything else I could do on the device page there . . . .

    KEF LS60 Wireless Just Announced

    since I don't stream using the kef app that doesn't matter- that's why I talked about using the native apps instead of the kef app in my post.

    KEF LS60 Wireless Just Announced

    yep- keep an old phone with no service around if you have to lol also I would hope that at that point a company like kef might consider opensourcing or at least documenting the api for controlling the device!

    KEF LS60 Wireless Just Announced

    you don't have to use kef's software to stream music. really the only concern you have on software is if kef themselves stop supporting the speakers with their own app- you do have to use kef connect to switch inputs + configure the wifi connection . . . but other than that I use the native...

    yeah unless you ABSOLUTELY need the biggest GPU the pro is more attractive than the max this time. kind of tempted to upgrade from my m1max, but also at the same time still not feeling the limits of the old chip in use

    I have a 2014 forester next to the STI in the garage, @DWPress still mad they stopped making the XT foresters in '18 . . .but suby's made it clear they no longer are interested in making fast cars/SUVs. we'll see how the forester hybrid looks when it comes out in a couple of years- I'm thinking...

    current subarus suuuuuuuuuuuck, i would not buy anything they make now. current crosstrek compared to a 2004 STI is like comparing a toyota yaris to a mid-90's 2JZ-powered Supra :)

    nearly! has some tokico D3 struts and cobb sway bars, but other than that the suspension is stock. for power mods it has a cobb OTS tune (will be getting a pro tune from JM in minneapolis this summer), cobb intake, turbo heatshield, and turboXS exhaust. so really, in the STI world . . ...

    it's equally as silly to assume dave caveman had perfect feet simply because he didn't use shoes

    Noisy digital audio on LG TVs

    if eARC works for you and your dac/avr/whatever+tv aren't having dropouts there's no reason to make any changes. if you're having dropouts, then try a different connection method.
