    Doom 30th Anniversary

    Multi-Player Doom was banned in my workplace as lunchtime sessions often bought the network down šŸ˜Š. Favourite at the time was the Leasure Suit Larry series.

    Thank you so much. Downloaded FLAC. Great to get this back :)

    Prefab Sprout

    I see mentions of Martin Stephenson & the Daintees. I had the L.P. Boat to Bolivia but no longer have a turntable. The album is not on Tidal and I see the C.D version at over Ā£50 on Amazon o_O

    Albums that not only stand the test of time, but improve listen after listen.

    Lloyd Cole and the Commotions - Rattlesnakes. Still gets regular plays here and sounds as fresh as it did 40 years ago.

    Improving the performance of the Hugo TT2

    Having recently added an MScaler to my TT2 it did make a significant improvement. Also the dealer I bought it from gave a big discount, maybe a replacement is in the pipeline although they said there was not.

    What are you listening to right now #63

    Damien Rice - Story of O. Years since I last played this but, with the exception of a couple of wired moments, what a great album!

    Finding lost objects in unexpected places

    I once found my "lost" wallet in the fridge after cancelling all bank and credit cards. Must have put it away with the shopping.

    Naim: Is it personal?

    I used to have Naim 42.5/110 and went to a dealer who demonstrated 135's and what ever the top range pre-amps were at the time and thought: is this so much better? And being honest, to myself, I thought no not really, just different. Ok we were using my speakers, ProAc Super Tablettes, but at...

    Naim: Is it personal?

    I think that HiFi magazines in the 80's were very influential. The reviewers for HiFi Answers, for example, were completely in the Linn/Naim camp and for them nothing could come close. There was one reviewer who, when testing a rival amplifier, would slot it into his Linn/Naim system and only...

    A Question about roon

    Although Room will work on a P.C. I found that if I was using it the P.C. slowed down considerably. I now use a dedicated NUC with my entire C.D. collection on a plugged in S.S. drive. Of course backed up to my network drive. Only quirk I have with Room is sometimes, after an update, Room radio...

    I actually like the look of them and the finish is amazing workmanship. But I guess, as we all would agree, it's the sound that counts and I am more than happy with that.

    Complete change of direction.

    How do they compare to the D&D in terms of scale and bass. The D&D sounded more like floor standers but, for me, really needed a bit of volume to really come to life. Living in a apartment that's not always possible. The Fyne F1-8s sound great at any volume. Very nice but what turntable have...

    Complete change of direction.

    Hi all. I am now using the following: Luxman 590 AXii Amplifier. Bought from badger748 through PFM classifieds. Lee delivered it himself which is about a six hour return trip. Cannot thank him enough, excellent person to deal with! I would love to have bought his speakers but sadly they were...

    Naim muso or Sonos beam as soundbar

    Not really a helpful reply. I would suggest that if you have nothing to add then stay out of the thread. Maybe an alternative suggestions or something.
