JBL 4329P POWERED STUDIO MONITORS
The trend I'm talking about is "just-pressplay" speakers, stream-ready active speakers that embody everything you need for serious, high-resolution-audio listening except the music. Unpack, set up, log into your network, and be an instant audiophile. At least, that's the theory behind such impressive examples as KEF's LS60 and Klipsch's The Nines. And now, JBL's 4329P Studio Monitor system.
Unlike several competitors including the two mentioned above, JBL's 4329P is strictly a Bring Your-Own-Streaming solution: there's no proprietary streaming-quarterback app, such as KEF's Connect or BluSound's BluOS. Thus, whether you choose to stream via Wi-Fi (via either the Apple AirPlay or Chromecast protocols), Bluetooth, or wired-Ethernet, you'll be responsible for your own connections and setup. This is mostly a matter of convenience/organization, since the proprietary streaming apps I've encountered simply aggregate your streaming services on a single page or two, using each's wireless "casting" ability as usual, much as an aggregating app like Flipboard or Apple News combines news feeds.

FOR ANYONE who has been waiting for streaming music to be a high-quality sit-and-listen experience, the SVS Prime Wireless Pro SoundBase streaming integrated amp fits the bill.
Worth the Splurge?
AS A RULE I'm not particularly susceptible to the \"audio-jewelry\" school of component design; I'm a value/performance guy.

OPTOMA BOASTS of being both the top 4K UHD projector brand globally and the number one Digital Light Processing (DLP) brand in the United States for 2022, citing the PMA Research Worldwide Projector Census, making the company no stranger to the world of projected light.
Sonic Surprise
OVER THE YEARS I've reviewed hundreds of audio and video products covering all the usual bases. But not up to now a soundbar.

MY EXPERIENCE with Bowers & Wilkins dates back over thirty years to my high school days, when I first admired the 801 Matrix in Stereophile magazine.
SHARP, BRIGHT, & BUDGET-FRIENDLY
IN JUST a few short years the home projector landscape has undergone a radical revolution in terms of price and selection.
They are Coming.I Can't Hold Them Back Any Longer.
This is my last communication. Outer walls breached. Door is splintering. Hinges giving way. Out of ammo. Just one grenade left. I'll take as many as I can with me. God have mercy on my soul.
