    Wiim mini

    You could try any battery power brick if you've got one hanging around. I just found the music more engaging via Mojo2/Eligia.

    Spotify 'supremium' hifi tier due to launch soon

    Well over a year ago now I participated in a pricing survey for Spotify lossless. Usually (but not all the time) that's done at a stage when refinements to pricing structures are being made.

    Covid inquiry

    Royd Sorcerers, phase plugged vs not

    Royd Sorcerers, phase plugged vs not

    Yeah. I have a pair. Front ported, inverted drivers with the RR3 mid/bass. How can I post a pic? PS. sorry, getting confused. My minstrels don't have phase plugs....those drivers look a lot like the driver in post 6.

    Ageing BMW Vs Ageing Mercedes

    Another trick to avoid is setting your cruise control (in the BMW I had anyway) which automatically applied brakes on very long downhills. Ummm....what's that smell?

    BA7643 from Majorca on final approach to 27R at EGLL. PIC looks down at his PFD. Ah Jim. - Yes. What's this, ummm, refer to? - What's that? I've lost my bars, I've just got text. - Text? Yeah...PC load letter....

    Ageing BMW Vs Ageing Mercedes

    My mother has the cooking Integra DC5 and it's a lovely little steer. She loves it, imported from Japan and now on 340,000km odd.
