Slightly off topic but I think it will help the OP. I've been looking for replacement remotes for the Nvidia Shields I have. As many will know the original remotes apart from the latest versions are rubbish. Anyone on here have any suggestions for good replacement remotes available locally...

The distance on Ethernet is not your limiting factor here. You can, and should run Ethernet CAT6 to as many rooms as you can and terminate to break-out boxes. Then you can use the point either to connect a PC, media player, smart TV or plug in a decent Access Point. Look at the Unifi Access...

I'm actually going to retract my statement because I've just had a dodgy HDMI cable mess me around with a picture that would degrade over time to a snowy mess without sound. I'd say quality does matter within reason of course Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Morning, If you have a decent internet connection for the PC get a Steam Account as the games are generally well priced for PC gaming. If you have only a slow connection then try places like BT Games where they sell physical discs. One can also go to Makro etc but they tend to be pricey...

I love this one Chris... The same can be said about HDMI cables... I've found them to either work or not to work... Would love to hear if folks have found Image Quality differences between cables Must admit though when I do find one that doesn't work I'm quite irritated by the fact. To take...

Okay clearly not a setting issue based on the ON-OFF method clearing it's throat.... I have the 636 and have never needed to reset it but perhaps you've got nothing to lose in trying the reset process as defined here: http://www.onkyo.com/manual/txnr636/adv/en/051.html Sent from my SM-G920F...

Might need more info to diagnose the issue I suspect. Is it a modern receiver with HDMI? Is there no sound only with HDMI? Have you tried the tuner as a source? Or another analogue source? Assume you didn't change any settings before this happened? Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Looking very good Gareth... Lovely finish under that awful black paint. Thank goodness they used decent veneer in those days... You can still do a little bit of sanding without going right through it You could probably get some SEAS drivers that would fit... If you look carefully on the...

The B&O's that @Gareth80 is fetching from me this afternoon use this method and it looks appropriate for the period of the speakers and is very effective. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Guess who he sold those to [emoji41] Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Very highly rated speakers. Bought a set from the forum myself and I'm impressed with them for the price. Perhaps read about them here: https://www.cnet.com/news/wharfedale-diamond-the-best-sounding-350-speaker-on-the-planet/ Also saw a set going for R2k on the forum recently. Not sure if...

Hi Peter I have sprayed the selector switches and a great deal of the drop outs were caused by those. But this is most likely not caused by this because it doesn't get affected when rocking the switches. I'm in Forest Town Jhb. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Thank you both for the response. Really great that I'm using the forum for some good that might benefit others instead of spending money on it all the time 😁 I would have thought the caps also but I thought maybe the fact that I sprayed the pot just before this happened had something to do with...

I think I posted this in the wrong section: https://www.avforums.co.za/index.php?topic=61545.0 Could anyone refer me to someone who can help with this. Thanks Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

I hope I'm posting this in the correct section. Mods, if I'm wrong please can you assist by moving this. I have a NAD 7020 which I bought for my Dad a few months ago. It was working okay but with scratchy sounds when raising or lowering the volume. I used some contact cleaner on the pots and...
