    Negotiating Price with Dealers?

    Carwow equivalent for hifi online bidding website thingy. Compile a list video reviews of equipment with measurements to back it up . Followed by a subjective review and ratings. Allow users to submit their reviews 🤔💡 Of course I'm not down playing the importance of a dealer here. As we all.know...

    Negotiating Price with Dealers?

    I got burnt by Tag DVD32R as well, 5K down the drain !!! Also when it went belly up they didn't give any design details to anyone , so we couldn't get them repaired. Kevin the chap from Bicester tried but without schematics had no chance. Shame because I thought Udo and co. were making all the...

    Negotiating Price with Dealers?

    I sometimes ask about price matching. For Ex demo and used equipment I normally put in an offer without taking the pee. I do think its a bit of a tricky dilemma when price matching a local high street retailer with a retailer who is only on-line with no overheads. If we are not careful there...

    Are there any online retailers who offer speaker cables to try at home ?

    Always worth a phone call to confirm what the returns policy in regards items such as cables is. Just read the statement Richer Sounds make on their website about the item returned has to be faulty . Which deters most from just trying something out. Still doesn't effect your consumer rights ...

    Should have realised that the Primare SPA25 Prisma input for music was set to bypass, so no Dirac.

    Thinking about my room . I have been using it for 6/7 years with 4 speaker changes so I'm doubtful it's reflections causing the glare. When I recover from my minor op I will play with toe-in again maybe in a week. Speaker cables I can manage maybe in a couple of days

    Are there any online retailers who offer speaker cables to try at home ?

    Was looking at Amazon returns policy and it states unused. Problem is they have a seal on most of them so bit risky. Just wanted to try against my Nordost , some pure copper cable versus some QED xt40 and Audioquest rocket 22 but can only find the 11 and Sure Grip but over £400/500 worth of...

    Done an initial Dirac measurement. But with the limited Bandwidth Dirac licence . Will invest in full bandwidth I think. Plus more room tinkering with stuff 👍

    The John Westlake/Lakewest MDAC/FDAC, VFET and Detox

    My concern is that he is able to get things made , but for other third parties for his own funding rather than this project.

    Horrible sound 😁 I owned Martin Logan summit x 6 years ago and loved them, these are as close to that panel sound

    Haha . First heard them on a 18k naim system and was blown away. Very revealing open sound. Still waiting on John Westlake to provide streaming and dac ..please don't comment . Currently Roon via airplay into Prisma Primare SPA25. A big big step up from my Marantz SR8012

    I'll keep experimenting with toe-in but trying to maintain stereo imagery with width of room versus seating position. Certainly will be trying Dirac again ..more reading required on this. I would prefer a retailer who can loan a couple of sets .
