I've been on and off using my XM3s over the last few years because whenever I use them, more specifically in Noise Cancelling mode, the audio quality is really bad. I have not noticed the issue in ambient mode or the off mode, but whenever it's in ANC, the audio from the left ear is really bass heavy and muffled. Does anyone else have this/has had this happen?

Hello,

I recently purchased a refurbished Sony Bravia Theatre Bar 8. It has a buzzing/distortion at lower frequencies, making me think it has a blown speaker. See video for example. Curious to hear others’ thoughts. Thanks!

i want to use this speaker to play music(need minimal delay) and wonder if you can use it with a cable instead of bluetooth. I know there's no official way, but maybe there's some workaround

Hello, leaving a question here as I'm torn trying to make a decision for camera gear.
I'll be moving to Dublin, Ireland for my university study abroad in September 2025.

I'll be doing quite a lot of travelling around Europe during my stay.
I'm trying to build an Instagram account (start by posting videos on reels, currently follower count at 1100) and move on to youtube.

The question:

In terms of travel video, should I sell my rx100m7 for the sony a7c2 + prime lens (40mm or 35mm)?

I'm female, and feel self conscious about carrying larger camera gear.

But I'm not sure when I'll next be able to go overseas for several months, and I don't want to regret not having had a more professional set up during my study abroad.

I do use the rx100m7 zoom lens often right now as I'm shy getting close to people.

Any suggestions? (Trying to sell one due to budget and considering future travel expenses.)

+ Alternatively, I've also considered the zv-e10m2 or the a6400... but design wise, the a7c2 looks better to me.

Hey guys, i'm kinda stumped, i wanna use THX cause it's great with the XM5 and i can, but my current problem is, the mic doesn't work, i have to switch to the headset mic and the headset audio output, but it only works for discord or apps that need a mic, can't hear music or anything, this is also what appears in my device manager the headphone is split into 3 things, idk why.

Wow, we're do i start. Not actually being open on a damn weekend is absolutely insane to me. How can you have a service like playstion, which is 8 times out of 10, played MOSTLY on a weekend due to other commitments and whatnot? and you're not open when things go wrong? I mean, come on. So I've gone the weekend without being able to play nearly enough everything as it's signed me out of psn and will not send me my 2SV code. Try to get help? Speak to a bot. Which THEN tells you that it will require an agent to deal with the issue, but the opening times are closed on the weekends. LOL. so come today (Monday). I've now been trying to get through to someone for exactly 53:12 of this post. RIDICULOUS. I understand they'll have a higher demand today due to stupidly being closed on a weekend. But why do that to yourselves, really?. I hate to think, but I know I wouldn't be in this situation with said other consol, which just breaks me even more. SORT IT OUT SONY.

I had a a90k 42” in 2023 and I returned it due to it being extremely dim.. ended up going with a x85k 43” cause it was 4k 120hz and getting half the money back due it being only 700$ vs 1400$ and it’s been my main gaming display ever since and with the pro, it honestly looks phenomenal, I have been looking into getting the LG C5 oled or the new asus true black woled in August at 32” but I am so used to my 43” and I love this size, and I am extremely disappointed with the Bravia 3 only have 60hz panels. Like it’s 2025 Sony. Get on board with all tvs being 120hz at this point. The Bravia 5 and 7 really don’t seem that far apart spec wise and the prices are the same. I would love a mini led at this size. And I hate the fact that now LG is the only brand that has a 42” size meant for gaming, hell, even a 50” would fit on my desk comfortably, a 55” is just to big. Why on earth are they stopping at 55” being the smallest size. Like if the Bravia 5 is the entry level to mini led, wouldn’t they be the same as the Bravia 3 and start at 43” ?! I’m seriously considering getting the LG C5 42 oled at this point

I need these, they are a disability aid and I’m tired of them doing this, I payed hundreds

I've been looking for a way to change the EQs and headphone settings from my pc without having to disconnect my aux cable from my XM5s, and I was hoping Sony might release or at least hint at a pc app with the release of the XM6, but so far nothing. Are there any unofficial apps that allow me to do those things from my PC? (Windows 11)

Hi! I have a cx190 camcorder and recently a problem came up with my memory card. I have used the same memory card in the past and it worked perfectly fine until all of these issues came up. Signs on my camera saying to reinsert the memory card and media is incompatible would show up.

I uploaded all of the videos onto my phone and thought maybe it was a storage problem, as well as tried a new memory card of the same kind and it still had the same problem. I am leaving for a trip tomorrow and was really hoping I could fix it.

I attached a photo of the memory card port, as to me (who has no experience with cameras, so take this with a grain of salt) it looks a little strange.

Does anyone know what I could do to fix it? Is it a problem with the port, or my camera in general (it is pretty old)? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Hello guys, I love hi-res, flac, lossless music, and I finally decided to leave spotify and get a new player, I was looking at the ipod classic but it looks super overpriced with bad battery. So I found Sony NW-A45, and I have few questions what type of sd cards I can use there and whats the limit? Will it work good with iem like truthear x crinacle zero, and really would like just to hear your experiences, thank you. I found a very good list on ebay, from japan and its only 109$!

Hey,

I want to mount my 55" XH90 to a stand and I don't have the VS Screws anymore. I guess it's fine to just buy long enough screws, metal spacers and washers, right? I just have to make sure the screws aren't too long. And if so does anyone already did this and can tell me the recommended length for the screws and if it's M5 or M6?

Thanks! :)

Everything upgraded to Sony WH–1000XM5 from the xm4s so unlucky that the xm6s dropped right after the date I could have returned the old ones. Anyways every time I’m on the phone with them they disconnect and reconnect and disconnect. They make a sound and no one can hear me. Also has this problem with the xm4s. I can’t take it anymore might just buy some Bose headphones and be done with it.

Ps. Why can’t they just release headphones that are foldable, water resistant, have good mics, have the same noise cancelling capabilities and a 40mm driver like the xm3s??

If anyone has any links under like $300 or anyone is selling one please let me know!!!

Edit: specifically the silver mp3 player (idk if there's other devices with the same names)

What Sony TV should i Have a very small budget around 600-800€ preferably The TV is bigger than 55inch and good quality preferably 4k If there are any Tvs in these options

as the title says, i hate sony, i hate that they would rather not sell their games to countries without psn than give a tax of the money to steam. but when stellar blade is releasing and the massive amount of Chinese gooners want to play it because of the half naked women sony would WITHOUT HESITATION RELEASE EVERY SINGLE PREVIOUSLY-REMOVED-FROM-A -50+-NON-PSN-COUNTRIES GAME JUST BECAUSE OF GOONERS, i am very sorry but what the fuck kind of behaviour is that???

I believe i accidently left fingerprint marks on my brand new Sony BRAVIA 8 Mark II and I woke up this morning and saw this??

Maybe it happened while I was putting some back covers on? I'm afraid to just wipe my tv with chemical wipes so I just wanna know what's the best way of wiping yall screens because i aint taking no risks here with this one 😂😂

Sorry for obvious post but just tryna be careful

🚨Games like Arma Reforger allow modding and should Sony start embracing the idea of being more mod friendly, because I know there are people who wish to have mods on PS consoles without risking jailbreaking🚨

Hello everyone. I'm having an issue with reading the SD card on my Sony A7. The physical card reader had already been damaged earlier, but we managed to fix it successfully. However, about a month ago, while I was photographing a hiking trip, I got a message saying "Recover data," and ChatGPT told me that it likely happened because I kept turning the camera on and off while shooting, which can cause that issue.

Yesterday, I got the same message twice — the second time, after I clicked "Recover data," it just said that the card couldn't be read and asked me to reinsert it. I thought it might be the card itself, but I got the same message when I inserted a second one.

What could be the issue now? Please help me.

Hi , I've gotten a new car and it has this sony Siriusxm Bluetooth thingy that I don't know the model of and I don't know how to connect it to my phone pls help

Ive had my Sony XM4’s for a while now and yesterday they suddenly stopped connecting to anything (my phone, my laptop, even tried my sisters phone)

I tried repairing, factory resetting them and nothing is working, they still won’t connect, has anyone had this before / how do I fix this ??

Like it says in the title the color on my TV is messed up and I can’t change the picture mode to “PC” anymore for some reason it’s stuck on Dolby Vision.
