sounds like you'll need to wait until the atv4 comes out because clearly your atv3 is too old and slow to do it

the atv4 has been out for months and it's amazing, but airplay is still flakey, i think airplay went to poo poo around ios 6 or 7

tbh i haven't turned on my ATV on since I got the FireTV because it's better in every way so the ATV/airplay issues don't affect me anymore

you gotta explain what's going on with this sitch here



like those speaker connectors i can't even come up with a half rational explanation for what?



e: is that a hookup for 4 speakers? i guess? that makes somewhat more sense..

electrostatic loudspeakers are pretty yospos in that they are gigantic, super fiddly [fragile, humidity sensitive], require extra speakers to actually hit full range and have a sweet spot only big enough for a single person to enjoy

I've had plans drawn up for awhile for some nice PA cabnit speakers I want to build. My dad has a full woodshop in his garage and is pretty pro at it. Just gotta learn to wire the internals myself. Might make some monitors first before I try to build the big ones.

if it were just a router i'd just buy some mdf and go crazy. i can probably make a clean-enough cut. i think :v:

really you need a table saw for the big bits and thats the killer

i was just wondering about that

i guess itd need clamps to hold the pieces together while gluing/screwing. maybe a tongue and groove thing would be useful???


this is why i never actually do these things. i start considering logistical realities, get tired and say gently caress it :effort:
