Thanks interesting thread. Please keep going with the system changes and show how you address/improve the response. Would like to learn from the practical steps taken. And then a subjective report on how the music listening experience changed.

If you get tired of your "insurance premiums" ie the space your stuff consumes, please allow me to assist alleviate this problem.

@Baseline you echo my thoughts and risk management instincts perfectly. One needs to be prepared for the unexpected in all matters of importance to you.

Very nice thank you. Will watch from time to time with interest.

Your "mock up" is better than most DIY'ers final product. Well done - this is going to be awesome. Just one question: I don't know the principles behind THIXAR vibration damping, but there are various DIY approaches to vibration control so why not incorporate one or more of these in your design?

In the USA there are stiff penalties for wire fraud.

Why is he not taking it with him? I believe the grass is greener on the other side...

Very sad. It's not often I'm short of words but today is one of those occasions. I hope it was a short and peaceful passing and deepest condolences to his loved ones. He will be missed deeply as a person, and his hi-fi knowledge and community spirit is irreplaceable! Rest in peace buddy.

Love it love it! Finally.... I am so happy to see more people speaking out and calling it like it is. That "beautiful" but artificial "non music music" that gets used exclusively to demo systems being identified for what it is. It's beautiful crap.

This is a such a quality thread. The thought and care that has gone into contributions from both sides of the aisle is high caliber, print worthy prose. I have my own opinions but the quality of discussion on both sides swayed me this way and that. Love the fact that we can argue points like...

I dont mind large hi-fi's but it is a general trend that as they get beyond a certain size it's the rare few that remain elegant looking. This hi-fi has jumped right to the top of my mental list of most off-putting looking hi-fis. Absolutely tasteless!

Thanks I am finding this thread both entertaining and educational. Well done on polite arguing - a good example to be emulated.

I second this. This thread reminds me of the recent dishonest seller thread. It's pretty unhelpful to make general accusatory statements and then storm off in a huff. Almost nobody knows what you're talking about except perhaps a select minority. And the lack of willingness to explain yourself...

I have a theory that if a dealer or manufacturer offered several different cables with prices ranging from R50/m to R5000/m (and with different technology under the skin) but they all looked like basic white twin cable of same gauge almost nobody would buy the expensive ones and there'd be no...

It pairs well with butter flavored 🍿 😂

1000% was about to say the same. I'm assuming he was a man of some means and that it brought him joy while he was alive is all that counts. I expect his dependents are well taken care of and do not depend on the proceeds from the hi-fi sale to make ends meet.

I dont think that is fair to say on the basis of this thread alone. There is often a context to heated conversations that the newcomer to the scene doesn't appreciate. I am happy to watch with my box of popcorn in hand but will not judge as we're only seeing the tip of an iceberg here. The more...

A company doesnt need to comply with POPI if it is domiciled and processes data outside SA.

There seem to be three (?) discussions going on in this thread.
