    DIY Speaker and RCA cable help needed!

    Hey guys! Decided to buy some banana plugs from amazon to sort out the terminals on my home theatre wires, so while I'm at it I might as well order everything I need to build my own cables. Some neat flex sleeved RCA cables and banana plug terminated speaker cables. Where in South Africa is...

    How to connect home theatre to media PC?

    Thanks for the responses guys! Gives me more than enough to work with. I read that I would need to enable 5.1 in windows for it to work correctly... Would that mean that I am to change that setting every time I switch between listening to my music and watching a movie? Lots of reading for me...

    How to connect home theatre to media PC?

    The amp in question is a Denon X540BT. The media PC will need a new graphics card to decode 4k content. It will be connected with an HDMI cable. The amp has 4k HDMI pass through, its the audio through the hdmi cable good enough? Will the amp be able to provide 5.1 from that?

    How to connect home theatre to media PC?

    Hey guys! We've had our home theatre for about 3 months now, and I absolute love it. I found myself using it less and less often, because the only sources I am using is apple music from my iphone through the bluetooth module on the amp, or through an optic cable from the smart tv, playing...

    Question regarding dac/amp and PC gaming

    Sennheiser's naming convention is confusing at the BEST of times. I now follow the rule of thumb that no matter what they name something, it is utterly and completely different than whatever else is in their line up with a similar name.

    Question regarding dac/amp and PC gaming

    100% with you! That's why the Game Zero's was so enticing back when I bought them. Basically the same drivers as the HD598, with a decent mic. Win win win. Pricey at ~R4000.00 for your average gamer, but little money for someone who cares enough.

    Question regarding dac/amp and PC gaming

    Howsit dude! First off, virtual 7.1 is total nonsense. You are far better off just rocking stereo. Sounds will be more natural and there is absolutely no problem with positioning in stereo mode. After all, '7.1 headphones' are all stereo headies. (bar a few exceptions...) Something like the...

    Hey all! I am moving into my first house in a couple of weeks, whooo! I have 2 bookshelf speakers for the rear of the living room system, and 2 big vintage stereo speakers that are in need stands. Does anyone have an idea where I can buy some in Gauteng, or who to commission to have them...

    Let's play a game! Help me 'home entertain'!

    Thanks for everyone's input! I have decided to go the Denon/Polk route for now. It should fit all our TV room needs. Do we really need an additional sub with a 5 speaker setup? (2 floors standing, and 2 rear bookshelves)

    Yet to be issued. Insurance confirmed the amounts on Friday and I will get the full schedule today. Then the vouchers will follow after that. I'm sure they will give me a few months. Lets see.

    Let's play a game! Help me 'home entertain'!

    That would be the ideal solution. But having just bought a house, and having to buy everything from a spoon to a fridge new, my savings are toast! Wanted to see if I can get by with what the insurance provided. I might delay a bit to make sure I stretch it as far as possible. I also like the...

    Let's play a game! Help me 'home entertain'!

    Hey guys! I recently had an insurance claim pay out, and for the audio equipment that was lost I got some vouchers to spend at Sounds Great. Whoo.  :coffee: I have 27k to spend, and must end up with a nice TV and speakers to go along with her. The TV I am going for from them is a 65" for...

    Daily headphone care?

    That is definitely a must! For the meantime, I have resorted to keeping a roll of paper towels in my desk drawer. So I can wipe the headsets occasionally, so far it is working out well... it also helps having the towels on hand for other desk activities.
