I got lifetime in 2018 and a nucleus+ rev A , it is good but Roon support ,which is on the Roon community site is not the best, they seem to place it as a premium product but rely on users to carry the load of support. I thought that harman buying them up might make things improve but it seems not. I have on the whole had only minor problems with it now and again as they tend to introduce updates to fix bugs that introduce new bugs almost every time. It is totally dependent on how you use it and what with that will decide if you have problems or not being as there are so many systems with different operating systems and equipment. For example, the most recent update means that I have to turn my DAC (T+A)off and on several times for it to pick up and play music. This was a bug in an earlier iteration which was fixed and now seems to be back again. when it is working it is great.

@swt61 Here in the U.K. there is a series called ‘Grand Designs" where they have people doing self builds, one off designs that are self built over sometimes quite long periods of time. I am always amazed at the hours they are putting in to do it, working full time jobs and then going home and building until we’ll into the night. I think the longest one I have seen it took them 10 years from buying the plot of land to moving in. Some quite astonishing houses built . https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421099/episodes/?year=2021 there are episodes on YouTube, not sure if it is restricted geographically.

Just started watching Hijack on Apple TV, just started episode two, excellent .

@jpelgI have been watching Silo, I thought it was a bit of a slow starter but has picked up since. I suspect we will find out why they are underground as the series progresses.

Dam, I didn’t realise I was meant to throw them away after playing one side.🤦♂️

It was excellent, Have to admit that Emily Blunt is a bit of a crush of mine. Series 3 of Happy Valley is also excellent.

My CRBN headphones arrived yesterday and I have noticed that I am getting the e-stat fart(crackling) , quite a lot louder in the right ear than the left even when adjusting on the head. I have told the dealer about it, he said to run them over the weekend and see if they settle. I know Spritzer had to send a pair back for this as well as Tammerdown . Even though these are brand new from my dealer I have noticed that the cert of authenticity date is 11-1-2021 which I guess as it a U.S. company is 1st of Nov 2021 which I am surprised at being around 12months ago, even though I am based in U.K., not sure how long they have been held at U.K. importer . I assume things didn't improve for you which is why they went back but I wonder if anyone else had this and it improved over short time.
