Apple TV 4 - are you using it?

51 replies

it's my audio device to dispatch my music collection via iTunes Match GAPLESS in the system/the rooms. for video streaming i use amazon fire TV. both work well with the BeoRemote 1. Disappointing that none of the Media Players from Avant and Essence are able to play gapless

I can confirm that the ATV4 does fit inside the rear left of the Horizon cabinet, just...You would be then best of using a short 0.75cm HDMI cable to minimise the amount of unwanted cabling inside the TV 😁

0.75 cm. That is short!

With Apple discontinuing the ATV3 yesterday, there is a LOT of rumours regarding a ATV5 with 4K. 

ATV is simply fantastic in every sense. Love the trackpad, love the UI, love the lil quality designed casing, heck, even the mains lead is coiled so that is does not kink. Attention to detail!

One top quality product.

Apple Onanism once again.

I never used the Apple remote (but the Beo4/PUC) and I only saw the 'box', when I replaced the version 3 with the 4.

The ATV itself (including the main lead) is hidden away - I don't care much for those (as long as the device is small).

The UI is costumable, so it does all (well - almost all), that I had expected.

And AirPlay is still my primary choice for getting content from the iPad to the tv.

A very usefull device.

You're highly amusing Jeff but I'm glad that I don't know you.

If a product is excellent, then it should be praised. It works well and the ATV4 has NEVER caused me problems. Now look as a comparison to the thread for the Moment! Two years on, those poor souls are still stressing about it and my gosh, that's only a simple music player - thank goodness that it doesn't do video!!!

I've thoroughly enjoyed my ATV 3 and intend to get an ATV4 shortly. I do agree Paul that it's been totally hassle free and a really nice piece of kit.

Same here Paul, as it means I don't have to shake you hand. Ick!
