Reviews
The rise of streaming and the release of Sky Q has led to Virgin's TiVo feeling ancient. Step forward Virgin's response in the V6 - and the result is a decent one.
From a hardware perspective it's not far off from Sky Q. Multi-room is excellent and it's future-proofed for 4K, HDR and Atmos.
What holds it back is a lack of content, especially in 4K with only Netflix and YouTube available. Until it solves that issue, Sky Q remains ahead.

Whether you want to play Bluetooth or vinyl, these Roths will accommodate you.
From treble to bass, these desktop speakers are nicely balanced. They're good with small-scale dynamics but less so with bigger dynamics.
If you're looking for an affordable speaker with a well-judged performance, these are worth a shot.

Sony is celebrating its 70th birthday by releasing a range of Signature products, including the MDR-Z1R headphones.
They're not cheap, but the premium price is reflected in the performance. It boasts excellent detail resolution, powerful bass and scale.
Excellent sources/electronics are needed for them to shine but nonetheless, these are the finest closed-back headphones we've heard.
