Idealty's Domain: Let's Talk Tech

Amazing listening sessions with my new Anthem AVM90, Paradigm Reference Studio, and Parasound Halo A21 amp!

In this video, I will examine and breakdown Sony's new PlayStation Plus service which is set to debut in Asia regions next week and the US on June 13th. I'll go into each of the 3 tiers: Essentials, Extra, and Premium and how it compares to Xbox GamePass versions. Sony is a bit late to the table here with this, but the initial game list at least show that the service does offer some value. Get ready for war folks 😉

Microsoft dropped a bombshell last week by announcing that they intend to buy Activision Blizzard for a whopping $68.7B! In one fell swoop, Microsoft increases it's studio count to over 30 and will now own the #1 selling game on PlayStation every year: Call of Duty. This type of news is once in a generation and the impact to this can fundamentally change gaming as we know it. Is this the continuation of massive consolidation in gaming? What does this mean for PlayStation going forward? Come check out my video as I dig in!

Home Theater Story: Do Subwoofer Cables Really Matter? When building out a world class audio system, is it worth investing in high end cables? The verdict is decidedly split on that one with some saying cables don't make any difference and other proclaiming that a high end system requires similarly high end audio cables. For much of the past 3 years, I've been wracking my brain around a perceiving deficiency of bass coming from one of my dual subwoofers. The overall response did not seem as even as it should from 2 subs. After trying just about everything to try and fix the problem, it occurred to me that the only remaining difference between the 2 subs was the RCA cable used to connect back to my preamp. Could that really be the source of my problem? Can cables make a difference on the perceived sound of my subwoofers. Check out the video to get the full story and find out the answer!
