TV & Audio

From the floor at CES – Just when you thought new TVs were already like little slices of reality in a flat-pack box, LG is out of the gate with TV that’s better than 4K or UHD. See what they anounced at the Consumer Electronics Show today; a Super Ultra HD TV that’s just 6.6mm thick!  

Con-man Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) is looking to clean up his act in order to spend time with his daughter, but when his friends get him involved in another crime, he walks into a setup that ties him to a heist that will actually save the world. 

The big countdown to Christmas is on, and if your holiday shopping list is a mile long,  there’s never been a better time to find out what’s new at Best Buy this month.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t imagine exercising without music. Not only does it motivate me to work harder—especially when certain pop anthems from more than a decade ago come on (like Toxic by Britney Spears … don’t judge me)—but music helps to pass the time and gives me something to concentrate on other than how sweaty I am and how smelly the guy is on the treadmill next to me. I’ll suggest a couple great headphones that can help keep fitness fun for you, and for the people around you.

Chances are you’re too young to remember this, but there was a time when car audio was limited to AM radio or even 8-track tapes. Even today, many new cars ship with a standard entertainment system that doesn’t get much fancier than an in-dash CD player. Fortunately, Best Buy has an entire department dedicated to upgrading your ride with the latest in audio and other high tech gear, including emerging new platforms like Apple’s CarPlay. Whether you want a subwoofer powerful enough to rattle your entire block, Bluetooth handsfree capability, a navigation system, video playback or the ability to use Siri to find a favourite tune, Best Buy has you covered.

Kelly Radner (Rose Byrne) and Mac Radner (Seth Rogen) are starting a family and what better way to start off than to buy a house in a quiet neighbourhood? That is, until a fraternity spearheaded by Teddy (Zac Efron) and Pete (Dave Franco) move in next door and start causing problems for the Radner family. 

Few manufacturers can compare to Sony when it comes to premium LED HDTVs. The new W-Series HDTVs from Sony represent the latest technologies ideal for home theatre and gaming applications with natural color transitions, great detail and clarity as well as less less blurring for action-intensive games and video.

New Televisions were a big part of last month’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Vegas, and the big brands were all strutting their stuff trying to take a lead position by showing off their latest and greatest technologies.  Some of it was a bit of fluff, but fortunately there was a lot of great stuff too. I am going to give you my take on the “best-in-show.”

Walking into the Sony booth I was looking around for their new TVs to check out at CES. I was wondering why they weren’t more prominently displayed when I realized they were actually not that far in front of me. I couldn’t see them initially because I was viewing them from the side, and they’re so thin they practically disappear.

Spring’s a time when we think about starting fresh. The weather starts to turn, things start to grow, and we start taking stock of our lives and our homes. Spring is also a time when many of us take a look around our houses and want to make changes. Our spring home remodel series is a great place to get some ideas for your next project, and this week, I’m going to look at how to jazz up (or create from scratch) a fabulous home theatre.
