Well, it seems to be bedding in a bit now, after a few hours of play. Bass is a lot less intrusive now. Have you run yours in yet, and has it got better?
I still think, perhaps I was expecting too much, that it's not worth £600.
I must have 20 odd hours on mine now. It's got better but unless you're stood 2 foot away from it, it's still muddy. It does get much better when you crank it up, but to me that's another sign of a crap system. I still think, perhaps I was expecting too much, that it's not worth £600.
For me it's a massive waste of money, but is wife friendly so will stay. I think I'm probably being a little unfair comparing it with a proper system costing £600, rather than other single wifi speakers.
As I said in the other thread my £30 computer speakers sound better. Was tempted to just get an airport express and save £500!
Another bloody Pebble!
Although i do love my current one and this one is a decent step up. And both still cost less than half of an iwatch.
But still, a watch to look at so you don't need to take your phone out of your pocket is just bloody stupid!

I was looking at that last night. The keyfob thingy looks like it might be cool if you could slip it in a kids pocket and track them on your phone. (I'm thinking about when you visit a county show or something similar.)Although i do love my current one and this one is a decent step up. And both still cost less than half of an iwatch.

I like the look of the Time 2 as well, but no reason to justify buying one when my original Pebble does everything I need.

It's bigger, i can voice answer texts and it has a heart rate monitor. I like the look of the Time 2 as well, but no reason to justify buying one when my original Pebble does everything I need.
That was enough to crack my "no kickstarter you broke ass t

I lusted after a G1 Scorponok as a child but never ended up owning one.The Maketoys version you see here goes some way to scratching that itch as he's massive and brilliantly designed. I've already bagged the Platinum Reissue Trypticon last year but this blows that and the Generations Metroplex out of the water.

And an Optimus Prime, Galvatron & Starscream.
Luckily there were bits missing & no boxes etc however whoever bought it all still got a bargain.

Can't report back any time soon unfortunately, they won't be going up until November-ish. They do have a nifty magnetic mounting system, you use a magnetic square that is stuck to the wall and the metal posters stick to that. No screws and gives finite adjustment.
