    DAC differences - real or imagined?

    I have been reading posts almost on a daily basis and have not participated for years now. The amount of BS that amazingly becomes fact and the opposite? The debates seem to very often become personal. For someone reading this it?s very tiring indeed. There seems to be no respect for the...

    Pioneer A-60 woes

    Thanks for the info Juggy. I also thought it was a dry joint and after soldering most decided to give it a miss. Will make some calls and get it seen to. Miss my classic. ENJOY !

    Pro sound and live performances vs high end audio

    Again like with different manufactures we all have our favourites. The same goes for Pro- audio. I can tell you guys that I have been invited to HFX on more than one occasion to listen to new equipment. A complete Mark Levinson setup costing more than R1 mill. Sounded great but not R1mill great...

    Pioneer A-60 woes

    Hi Guys Following this thread with great interest as I have the exact same problem with my A-60. At the time I bought it --- in the 80?s, I couldn?t find anything better in the price range. It served me well with a set of Bose 601?s at the time. Boxed, as I don?t know of someone in the JHB area...

    Main bedroom moderate home theatre design

    Hi Skeeter Are  you  selling  the  old Sat Cr Lnb ? If  so  what  would  you  want  for  it.? Playing  around  with  the  Pvr  idea. Just  getting  too  expensive  with  all  the  goodies required.

    b&w 805d, worth it or look elsewere?

    As  for  the  B&W?s  and  HFX. HFX  will  without  hesitation  arrange  for  a demo  in  your  listening  environment.  They  have  always  gone  the  extra  mile  to  satisfy  and  that  makes  the  805  sound  even  sweeter. Your  other  equipment  also  plays  a  big  role  in  the  end ...

    What price 'Name'?

    How  ?we?  can  misunderstand  a  thread ?! Reading  a  tone  into  a  mail  or  perceiving  something  different  to  what  was  intended  is  very  interesting. ?We?  have  problems  with  verbal  communications  no  wonder  so  much  more  with  written  works. Ampdog  -----  have  to ...

    The "You suck AVSA, thread" ;-)

    The points raised by the other members are all very valid. Unfortunately they have all been raised in the past and nothing has been done about it. When I say past --- years ago ?we? complained about the amazing products reviewed by AVSA. None of them ever had a bad review? The most common answer...

    AVSA Dec 09/ Jan 2010

    Thanks guys I will stick around. Without the venting site I might need a therapist.:-) Interesting development---for years I have been questioning the use of pro-audio amplification in home theater systems and stereo for that matter. Being so much more affordable !!! Most of the time I was shot...

    AVSA Dec 09/ Jan 2010

    Compared to other forums this one is seldom used and the reason I believe is the following. Alphabet had a straight forward remark/question. Not attacking anybody personally. We are fortunate to have the likes of Ampdog on the forum who knows more about amplification than most. Thanks Johan...

    Alphabet Hahaha----I am not sure about the wings---I seldom go to the actual town. Total waste of time---you can get the Farmers Weekly but no AVSA. On chickens---we have a BIG supplier relatively close to us and the joke is that trucks with all the different labels like ?farmer brown? collect...

    Andrew Don?t bother asking Kay to ban me---I will ban myself !!!!! If I have something to say to anybody that I can?t post on the forum it leaves a question mark. Unless agreed by both parties that the conversation will continue in private as it has no bearing on the actual topic. The REMOVED...

    As for providing the forum with an e-mail from Joel. I take exception to the fact that anybody believes that they have the right to contact me on my personal mail when the discussion was started on a public forum and should remain there. Added the right to question my choice of anonymity. I...

    Dear Andrew I am glad that you are honest. Clearly you don?t understand. I will try and explain in a way that it can be understood by everybody. If you paid attention when you were reading my post you would have read the part where I stated that I would personally rather review three...
