    That's a pity, Roy Orbison had some excellent music. One of my favourites is the "Black & White Night" DVD featuring Roy and several guest artists, excellent performances and excellent quality. -F_D

    Mark Knopfler - Guitar Stories

    Mark was interviewed earlier this week on Greatest Hits Radio. Interesting character, he spelt out they had a tough time early in their recording career as they would not be receiving any royalties for a couple of years. Then the record company gave in and allowed them to start receiving payment...

    Replacing RCA connectors

    I would suggest first spraying the RCA plug & socket with an Electrical Contact Cleaner, you might have a spot of corrosion from the Coastal regions. Builder's market or any Electronics retailer (Mantech, Communica) will also have. -F_D

    What An Audiophile!

    I don't know about now but that whole topic was against the original forum rules and should have been binned immediately. We all saw the outcome of leaving it open.
