QUOTE(lotiman2003 @ Mar 6 2025, 12:58 PM) I have an X90K, and my friend has an X90L. Both perform equally well with minimal blooming. I've only noticed the blooming twice in the two years since I bought it. I'd rather save the money and invest in a good soundbar instead. I bought the X90K for my parents also. I find it decent in terms of picture quality for their usage.   |

QUOTE(andrekua2 @ Mar 11 2025, 02:16 PM) Honestly the price sucks... aka Sony tax. 480 zones for RM3.5k more is just meh. Bought a QN65B with 720 zones for 6.5k for my parents 2 years ago. yes, i am using my A80J OLED sony tv to watch the movies in a completely dark environment. Some scene with switching between dark and bright can really cause too much glare for eyes to be comfortable. If OLED (known to be less bright than LED), can cause it, i am sure LED one will be even more jialat. At first I was tempted by the brightness offered by miniled but after some time, I tend to prefer my X90J. More uniform brightness when viewing. Mini led offered better specular highlights and does better when lighting up the scenes with different colors like when watching lol esports on Youtube. Some may even find mini led is annoying bright especially when switching between dark and bright or when watching them in a dim lit room. Of course that is my preference with my aging eyes. Some may prefer them especially when they have a brightly lit living room. |

No offence too, probably u do not even know well about the spec of the speakers.  It is a stereo speaker. It has a 2.1 channel setup, featuring: Two tweeters for the left and right channels One woofer for the bass |

QUOTE(zero5177 @ Apr 2 2025, 02:54 PM) Sound quality sure better than TV a lot especially for listening to song compared to soundbar, but lack multi channel firing for surround and atmos effect. yes, correct. much better than TV indeed. and all in one so the left right is not as option as other sound system and yes no dolby atmos etc.. but apartment, the sound of this speaker is really not bad already. it is certainly not as good as any dedicated sound system but really not bad given its size... |

The other reason is also Becos the speaker is not too big but sound in terms of loudness and quality also can meet my needs.😁 |

QUOTE(Lego Warfare @ Apr 3 2025, 01:25 AM) Hahah so far I haven't found any, but I didn't really go real close to look... So ignorance is bliss for now yes, agreed that likely the newer sound bar i can buy now will outperform my Marshall speaker. I'm currently staying in apartment as well, but you should consider soundbar. The sound quality and staging from a soundbar is seriously damn impressive since 7 years ago. Even the Atmos up firing speakers for a soundbar is amazing. Don't need to get a dedicated sound system, the soundbar (with subwoofer) will give you a night and day difference compared to the Marshall speaker. However, I find the current Marshall speaker can meet my needs already. becos for any speakers, I care more about the clarity of vocals which marshall speaker can provide this becos i dun really like strong bass which a lot of soundbars and sound systems focus more on. It is certainly not excellent but really good enough for now. so no intention to 'upgrade' anytime soon. importantly also the speakers is quite small and does not take up so much space and look nice and can blend with the layout. I enjoyed watching movies with my current setup a lot recently. I watched a lot of 4k movies with them. |
