    The Stereo Music Show 18 -20 June Carnival City Conference Centre Rio Rooms

    Yes, the "uh-uh" and "you know" and "Therese what do you think" and "passion" is annoying,  but one needs to take it in context. It was a fellow south African trying to promote a SA show , about SA products to a SA audience, and should be commended. Surely  a little  bit of local 'flair is to be...

    Note 10 as a source

    My question to the boffins out there. Can the Samsung note 10 (or for that matter another high-end phone) be used as a viable/decent/good/excellent source to play streamed music? In my case I sometimes use it to stream tidal in my home  office via a USB adapter +USB...

I just feel that local retailers don't give enough  exposure or dont  have local products in stock to compare their ...

When the technicians came out they moved my connection to a less used supply ( outside at the pole). Viola...

    Bookshelfs

    Am a B&W fan. Recently bought a set of Dynaudio Emit 20 to pair with my Exclame 150. Very happy with them. Also have a pair of Bentley  200 bookshelves that I used with the Exclame . That sounded pretty awesome.

    Interconnect Builds and reterminations

    Hi Guillaume.  I'm looking for a pair reasonably a priced interconnect from my denon avr to a VALVE EXCLAME 150 which I'm using for to power my front speakers. Not particularly fussy but they must not be bright cables. What do you suggest and prices please.  Thanks  Shiraz
