Looking at this with interest. As the op is looking to focus on pi hardware I'm interested to see what hdmi input sound bars are recommended as this will surely be the best input? To the op I'm wondering if the best solution is to buy a hifiberry amp+ and connect this to some nice kef ceiling s

I'd think the littlest ZVOX would work great for this. Even has its own DAC if you want to try it out: http://www.zvoxaudio.com/divinity-cart/item/4002201/zvox-audio-soundbase.220/1.html Apesbrain's Profile: http://forums.

Ha ha. Ive just got away with installing the iBigboy into our new kitchen/diner extension! Seriously though, have a look at the Azatom Sound Bar. One of the companies main aims is top quality sound and there's no superfluous signal processing on the iBigBoy. The sound is superb (and I'm a Naim fa

Hi ModelCitizen, You're right, this Azatom device is utterly unsuitable for our requirements. I shudder to think what my wife's reaction would be were I to try and install it in her lovely new kitchen. We need something very discreet, hence my idea of sticking a soundbar on top of the run of wall

Hi Clive, I'm sure this won't suit you but mention it just in case. I've recently bought an Azatom iBigboy direct from Azatom for £300. Its almost as tall as a kitchen unit and almost as wide as a unit is deep. However it is only about 100mm deep so it sits very nicely at the side of a unit (I.e

We're about to have our kitchen redone, and the shelf which currently houses the SB2 and a pair of (cheap) active speakers is going away. What we'll be left with is wall cupboards with very limited space above them (ie. about 10cm). I'm toying with the idea of using one of those TV soundbars to a
