    Desolder station choice

    I use copper braid and this, and needle probes to clear holes. Sometimes you need more than one thing https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232888250412?mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338728743&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 Which if you clean the solder out every 5-10 deciders works...

    Hi-Fi Racks are no longer in business by the looks of it

    I am going to post a longer pair of black legs to my brother who has a decent table saw and then shorten, I am in the process of making a new top as my tops are very old and different to the later tops as they have a 5mm central black inlay. Sad new really, they do sound good when set up...

    Manufacturer Litigation Against YouTube Reviewer

    Vice President, says it all doesn't it, well erm perhaps not, I had thought that the vice President was second in line to run the country, not a first or second promotion in a large corporate, I managed to avoid asking how Ronald Reagan was on my first meeting with a VP in the late 80's :cool:

    No wait..... They did say this....... Named after medieval-era Viking swords, the Ulfberht loudspeaker is the ultimate hammer/butterfly of sonic expression, striking out at the listener with percussive elements and a constant velocity that matches all musical instruments and the human voice...

    Manufacturer Litigation Against YouTube Reviewer

    Well given they are claiming 'realistic sound' and incredible value themselves, just the usual BS in my view. At the prices offered you know you are in to compromises, I have never heard them an have no interest in doing so, Ive heard many multi driver speakers and never liked any, I thought...

    Has anyone bought a product because of a recommendation on ASR?

    ASR is great for looking at measured performance, which if it's very poor, then perhaps worth looking more closely in to. But assuming there is a clear correlation between SNR and good sound is just dumb After spending a day listening to 4 Ethernet switches added to a streaming chain at a...

    Another mains fuse hits the streets

    On that set up mostly film, as it's a home Cinema set up, but I do use music discs for reference and testing. Musicwise I often listen to various Jazz, a few Acoustic and some folk. Jack Johnson sounds quite impressive with 9 12" drivers, two 18" and the Sonus Faber Extremas tacking along. No...

    Another mains fuse hits the streets

    Mike, your right the CU was wired in exactly the same way as any other then this simply fed the equipment from RCBO's or MCB's, no ring main one for each 135 etc, I did use 6mm^2 cable in this installation for each piece of equipment and it sounded great ! I am sure some will be terrified of...

    Pushing the OPA604

    On the naim AV2 they are fed by LM317, 337 and +- 15.2V seems this is the recommended range https://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/opa604.pdf?ts=1712071945264&ref_url=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.ti.com%252Fproduct%252Fes-mx%252FOPA604

    Another mains fuse hits the streets

    I certainly haven’t said I disregarded regs, my electrician at the time signed off and made the install he was and is as far as I am aware a competent electrician he certainly works in domestic and factory installations as a business owner. I did say that reducing your mains impedance from...
