    Considering going back to Stereo for movies

    I wired the current house up for surround but when we re-decorated I ripped it out as it was wasted due to the Mrs not liking loud volumes. We use the subtitles on many DVD'S now as the dialogue is now often unintelligible at the volumes that the Mrs is prepared to tolerate. I was going to...

    Differences between CB Naim Nap 250 and the Olive variety?

    The thing with getting none standard mods is that you will never realise the value of them on resale. You are more likely to devalue the item in some cases. Not sure if this applies to the Avondale mod as it is known by many to be a worthwhile upgrade.

    Differences between CB Naim Nap 250 and the Olive variety?

    I'm not sure now but it can depend on who the technician is and what they fit. What to bear in mind is if it hasn't a service history from a reputable technician, is that anything could have been thrown in the mix and you would have to know what you are looking at if you have any concerns or...

    Differences between CB Naim Nap 250 and the Olive variety?

    New Record Shops

    In the Vinyl Exchange yesterday and picked up 2 cd's what I purposely went in for. The previous Sunday I visited and picked up a CD what I had also gone in for. Who needs Amazon if this continues.

    Rega CD to Rega DAC, Cable ?

    I tried a coax connected to my Planet. I honestly couldn't discern any difference, so the Planet is now in a box in the attic. To be honest I didn't give it an extended trial but I have tried it more than once.

    BBC sound advice

    I heard some of the LS3 speakers at someones house who had quite a range of kit. I think he had at least three sets of these speakers at the time. He said he had owned about half a dozen sets of these speakers and that they all sounded a bit different.

    Cyclic debates and moderation Part II

    Bob and Tony have hit the nail on the head. Now if all measurement talk and such like can be contained within this thread then it will make for a better forum all round. Keep this thread going, people have to vent their opinions, sorry facts somewhere.
