Worth buying some ERA 100’s as fronts for my modest setup?

I have a Beam Gen 2, Sub Mini & Symfonisk Bookshelf Speakers as rears. I’d like to add some fronts to the setup with the ERA 100’s being the likely choice.

It’s a fairly tight space either side of the TV due to a doorway but I could install ERA 100’s as left and right front channels at a total distance apart from each other of 3.7m (12ft). This would be approximately 1.5m (5ft) to either side of the Beam. This distance apart would also roughly match the gap between the rears. Would this be worth doing? Is it actually a noticeable difference?

Which projection head would make the most sense for my setup?

I’m a food photographer and primarily use an AD600 pro ii and a V100. I’m also going to pick up an AD300 Pro ii for a lighter weight setup next time it’s on sale. I was about to pull the trigger on the BF-P projection head to use with the AD600 Pro ii but now I see Godox have released a whole new line of projection heads and I’m not sure what to do. Stick to the AD600 pro ii as the projector light or would something less powerful likely be enough for my needs? I’ve no experience with them so not sure how much light they lose etc etc.

What happened to the promised Hue Secure update for Apple Home?

This was announced at the end of last summer and was meant to launch late last year I believe?! We’re now approaching the halfway point of 2026 and they’ve seemingly removed all traces of this promise.

They said they’d expand their Hue secure integration with Apple Home, including Hue cameras showing in the Home app (but not including HKSV, as they’re worried this would clash with their subscription plan).

Has this just been completely scrapped now?
