Now that brings back memories. Visited Daan way back as a newly graduated guy. He demo'd the Annihilators and the Reference IV's. The sound blew me away and very nearly made me spend money I didn't have. Eventually walked away with a pair of Reverence II's. And, yes, it was a Dire Strait's song...

What Vleisman said. In a wall switch you should find an earth wire (green/yellow?) and two reds. The live red coming to one side of the switch and the switched live from the other side of the switch going to the light. If there is a neutral there I would be worried, as it has no purpose there...
