Well I've got the Q5 Pro well and truly dialled in now for TV duties. Best setting I have found is to set EQ to BASS, and then adjust treble and bass independently to suit. Clarity is much improved with some more treble. I'm on series 3 of The Killing on blu-ray - audio is stunning; the dynamics and bass are prodigious. I genuinely don't feel the need for a sub at all!

As much as I love the Q5 pro, I hate the remote control that comes with it. Very fiddly and unreliable, been driving us mad. And what a faff to get the battery cover out!! I've already broken off one bit of this. I notice the new remotes have been re-designed and use AAA batteries, looks much better. New remotes available from aliexpress if you need one. Agreed. Remote is poor and confusing This one ?In black !

That's the one, Mike. I've got one winging its way to me.

I've got my remote working better since nearly wrecking it - re-seating the battery seems to have helped.
But because the Q5 is a keeper, I'll be getting another one - anything's better than trying to get the battery out of this one.

I've had no problems with my remote.

I've had no problems with my remote. To be honest, I've had no problems with mine either. For a few quid though I thought it was worth trying out the larger model.

I really don't like the way the volume control is designed - pressing the outer ring is unnecessarily fiddly ...

You remember I had problems with a battery in one. That is giving problems again. Reseating the battery has fixed it before.
Like to hear how the new remote is in use before I jump. The new remote is with the Q5 on Ebay now

Mike - I would just buy the new one - it just has to be better with easy fit AAA batteries! Means you can also fit rechargeables.

Not heard one - I'm sure it will be superb but the M3 is more than good enough for listening with my Mac ...

I've heard good things about the M6 and the M8 but I haven't read anything about the M7

I forgot to mention, my remote turned up yesterday and it works fine. The daft thing is, the way I have my remote positioned I find that the smaller one is actually slightly preferable.

Me no comprendo - what do you mean about positioning?? It was a bit obtuse, wasn't it? I've got the Q5 sitting on a shelf, in front of the computer monitor and the smaller, metal, remote sits nicely in front of it, as below. The new, larger, remote doesn't fit as well.
