Please pardon me if this topic has already been discussed here. I have heard from some about the different improvements one can make towards better sound.  While some have yielded some slight improvements some have remained gimmicks, to me. I was taken aback though to actually see/read a...

I hope I can get some guidance here regarding two integrated amps. Cambridge Audio 640A goes into protection.  I disconnected all cables and still does the same thing.  ive had a technician look at it and he tells me 'it needs a new pic'.  apparently this is a chip that needs a hexfile software...

hi I recently purchased this CD player from the forum, yes I was aware that the display was not working. upon opening the cover of the player, the repairer found two transformers on the inside.  clearly this had something to do with the display not working or vice versa. I have since ordered...

so recently I have been hunting a new bigger tv, something 4k capable.  now my wife has been shopping around with me and has been obviously hearing me talking to sales people about features etc and Im sure the acronyms she kept hearing over and over were 3D and 4K.  I say this because today I...

here we go again, Gauteng members and CPT members getting together to flaunt their toys. NICE! and I am jealous, so I figured why don't we Durbanites arrange our own. this year alone, I noticed a trickle of 2 or 3 new members based in Durban. I haven't visited everybody's home but I think...

hi there maybe this can help somebody. I have, for the past two weeks, been using two 12 inch subwoofers in my setup. Energy S12.3 and Velodyne Impact 12.  so I tried them individually first and the Energy seemed to fill the room with much more ease, i figured it may be because i am familiar...

so about a week or so ago my Integra DTR 50.2 started giving me funny picture, it had slight redish\pinkish colour.  obviously I went through the process of elimination to ensure that the weakness was actually with the receiver. I then took it to Modern sound last Friday.  the guys tested the...

not sure if this has been discussed before, but ............ wifey wants to change seating arrangement in the lounge and DECLUTTER.  now the proposed seating arrangement is best suited to a single subwoofer.  I know allot has been said about the benefits of two or more subs.  I also enjoy the...
