    Astell & Kern Kann vs Other models - Anyone have experience?

    I don't find the IEMs I have that uncomfortable, I just don't like things in my ear and would like a larger soundstage. I think they are incredible for what they are, and these are only a cheap set.. With regards Cans, which units do you use with your A&K?. A buddy of mine has some LCD2 he is...

    Astell & Kern Kann vs Other models - Anyone have experience?

    Thank you for your input David. Personally I am not a fan of the in ear offerings - I think I just don't like stuff in my ears! - hence I'd like to get some decent cans shortly... Would you say the SR25 struggled then to drive cans? I have seen the SP1000 at "reasonable" costs, what does this...

    Astell & Kern Kann vs Other models - Anyone have experience?

    Hi there folks, Had a last minute late night eBay purchase of an AK Kann earlier in the year. I'm new to all this digital stuff let alone PMPs. I'll admit I hadn't really done my research and the unit has far larger storage capacity than I need and is of course quite sizeable.. All that said...

    Ripping CDs on a Mac - Software Recommendations?

    Hehe... Oh God, not this again!! For the record: I respect the artists and have purchased all these CDs myself. My son has just turned 10 and is getting interested in music and no doubt will purchase his own music at some point - let's hope it's good shit! Let's also not forget that when I...

    Tinnitus :(

    Part of the club here too sadly... Suspect mostly down to power tool use all my life without ear protection but did suffer with ear infections as a child... Luckily my brain generally filters it out but can be annoying in peaceful times!!

    Two Rover Cars that I would happily own ...

    Not a Rover man by a long stretch. But did have a couple of the MG Maestros and whilst they were definitely cheap as hell they did perform very well for the money!. Had Golf Gtis too which I much preferred but as others have stated I can concur that the MG would be swifter from A to B -...

    CD Players, worth spending over £2,000?

    It reminds me of how Lotus started using cheap Toyota engines in Elises. It made the car far more reliable and affordable than doing engines in house. At least that's how i remember it! Apologies for off topic.... Yes, much more reliable than the Original Rover K series units! But as I and...

    BFA / Z Plugs

    Goodstuff!. And do you solder to the external tab or the inner part? I would be thinking inner, I’d prefer to remove those outer tabs so I could heat shrink right up neatly. ( I don’t need the rear interconnect facility). Oh, and what solder are folk using? I’ve got regular 60/40 stuff
