    Experience with Buchardt Audio products

    I have only just become aware of this company which sells using a direct to customer model. Has anyone had experience with them? Are their products as good as they claim? I would be most interested in hearing about the S400 model. See: S400 MKII

    ADVICE on Projector Technologies

    I have been asked by our local Art Gallery (Tatham Art Gallery, Pietermaritzburg) to give them input on the best upgrade their existing projector (Vivitek D966). Since this new projector will primarily be used for film and photographic images, I have been looking at home cinema rather than...
