    What did you provide as proof of purchase?

    I took a screen print from amazon and they've said this isn't good enough.

    Under order page there would be download invoice option..it would be in italian and pdf form

    The Yamaha YAS-109 is on special at the moment, from 249 down to 158


    Linky

    Not going for it myself as I'm not a fan of alexa or the like in the house.
    Will wait for the 107 to come back on special.

    If you are interested in this and it is giving the won't post to Ireland message.

    Look under the price at the New and Used available link. click that and there are a few Warehouse ones. They will post but it costs €14.

    I got a Used but "like new" warehouse one for €169. Which is still pretty good value. There is one with a small mark that is a tenner cheaper.

    Ahh Thanks buddy!

    Will keep my eyes peeled for that with the 107. Not a fan of having Alexa or smart listening devices in the house. Bad enough having your phone listening 24/7 :-D

    Is that the only difference between 107 and 109, Alexa?

    "Accounts and lists - my orders - invoice / receipt" which is above the various "track my package" etc buttons, just beneath the order number.

    Sound wise they look to be identical. There are a few other changes, 109 has ethernet and wireless, alexa, usb. A few other difference, if you're thinking of getting one I'd look into a few comparison videos on youtube yourself to see what you think.

    Big box from Amazon.it arrived today but inside was a Anker Soundcore Infinity Pro! I don't know much about it, but it is €250 on Amazon so a similar price range. No Alexa but it has Dolby Atmos (although reviews say it is a limited version)

    anyone know if that is a decent one or if I should send it back? Tempted to ask for a partial refund and keep it.

    Thanks for the hint. Got the 109 off warehouse delivered here. Very impressive. It was brand new :D

    I've re-ordered the last used one. It has a small mark on the back. I've floated the idea of a partial refund on the anker to keep it. It is perfect bar missing the cables. The sound is pretty decent but no Alexa.

    It will be a hassle to post the giant box back, but they will pay to return it. It would make more sense to just give me that money to keep it :)

    I could put it in the sitting room.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,926 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Amazon gave me €40 to keep the Soundcore one. So it works out at about €130. Brand new it is €250 so a decent enough deal for me to keep it. I've ordered another YAS 109 as I want Alexa for the sitting room. I'll keep the soundcore in my games room.

    Does the 107 or 109 work with Google home?


  • Registered Users Posts: 222 ✭✭smndly


    I got the Yas-109 but from the Amazon.it. Unfortunately it came with a European 2 pin plug. Not sure if I should get a new cable or just use an adaptor.

    Adaptor; 2 quid
    New cable; probably 6 quid

    You can also use a pencil to depress the pin in the 'earth' socket and just shove the two-pin plug directly into the socket.

    Got the Soundcore one set up. I spent hours messing with HDMI cables as it just wouldn't pass through any picture and sound from the PS4. Even though it says on the box it has 4K passthrough.

    I wrongly assumed that you plugged the HDMI from the PS4 into the HDMI IN port on the sound bar and then connected the HDMI OUT port to the TV :D

    What I had to do was plug the HDMI into the TV and use HDMI channel 2 for picture. And then connect a different HDMI cable from the HDMI 3 port on the TV to the HDMI Out port on the Soundbar as they use ARC.

    So now I have picture on the TV on HDMI 2 and the HDMI 3 port is sending the sound to the soundbar. I don't really understand it but it works great now :)
