    Kodi: No Linux Love

    Hi Everyone, As of late, I have the feeling that the Kodi Linux implementation is not receiving a lot of love.

    HDMI Lightning Damage

    Hi Forum Members, I need some help/advice. A week ago we had a lightning strike. Although the strike was not on the house itself it was enough to cause damage to a lot of expensive kit. Amongst others my NAD T777 has lost all (I think) of the HDMI ports. Three questions: 1. Is it repairable and...

    NAD T973 Repair or Help

    Hi Forum Members, I have a NAD T973 hooked up to my T777 which I used often but not exclusively for stereo listening. I use 4 channels of the 7 to bi-amp my KEF floorstanders. Lately I've noticed that sometimes a channel cuts out. This weekend I experimented and tested each channel individually...

    Yamaha receiver turning off with no warning

    Hi Everyone, I've been lurking on this forum for a long long time and learning as much as I can. I've finally plucked up the courage to make a post (hopefully in the correct place): I have an old (you could say ancient) Yamaha RX-V995 receiver that I retired a few years ago because it kept...
