Just to update, it would appear that it is the power supplies which are the issue. Whilst swapping the power supplies betweeen the two players made no difference, as a final thought and after much searching I manged to find a 5V-1A power supply for another device which fitted the Touch. I...

Have managed to get the one working Touch connected in my main system using an ethernet cable & home plug, so all good for the moment. I think the other player where the network adapter has failed is now 'end of life'. I tried doing a factory reset and connecting via ethernet and the screen...

Thanks for the replies. Having spent all day on this I have admitted defeat. Have tried using both a ASC11 & Hexidecimal password formats on b & g 2.4 bands with the router in various encryption modes and still no connection, I was even unable to connect with encryption disabled. The Touch...

Just changed ISP provider which necessitated a change of router. Have managed to connect all my wifi devices to it without issue with the exception of my two SB Touch's. Below is some relevant info SB Touch firmware: 7.8.0r16754 Router: Draytek Vigor 2762n Wireless encryption mode: WPA2/PSK...

Two SBTs in use here, both very stable and still sound good to my ears. No plans to change them and will mourn their passing when they eventually expire.

I've had previous success using using Exact Audio Copy in 'BURST' mode, but unforunately EAC no workey on a Mac so you would need access to a Windows pc to rip them.

This is my lovely baby Marantz 2015 which I bought out of the local classifieds about 20yrs ago for £15 including the genuine wooden case. Since then it's sat in my garage system connected to a portable DAB radio and Mission model 70 speakers. However having just checked I can't believe how much...

Sold quite a few items recently on FBMP and genereally the experience has been positive for what after all is a free service. However the big problem I find is with 'no shows', i.e. idiots who say they want something and so you agree a day\time for collection only for them not to appear. Also...

Had the wife's mk1 08 plate CVTJazz for 11yrs (now 82k miles) and only issue in our ownership has been rear brake calipers. Had the CVT transmission fluid changed twice in that time, but now note that Honda have recently changed the transmission fluid change interval from 5yrs to every 2yrs. As...

Orient are one of the three major Japanese brands and are now part of the Seiko group though not widely sold in the UK. I have two Orients in my collection and consider them good watches for the money.

Have used him before but as you say he has now crossed them of his list.

Not sure how you can arrive at that figure given that there are three differemt NHS pension schemes and you would need know how much any individual had accrued under each of those scheme. Under the current 2015 scheme the accrual rate is 1/54th, so assuming your nurses career average earnings...

I have a small collection of watches, nothing of any value and a mixture of automatic, manual, quartz & electronic movements. Currently wearing this Omega Constellation Megaquartz 32khz Sadly the Megaquartz are no longer repairable so enjoying it while I can.

Ain't that the truth. However it's unlikely to change as the people making the decisions also benefit from those fabulously good pensions and Turkeys have a habit of not voting for Christmas.
