    What would you do: buyer dragging their feet to change ownership on car sale?

    If you scrap a vehicle do you not still stay the last registered owner? IOW if the vehicle racks up fines they are still linked to you but now it is also used illegally on the road? The police only have your details as owner of the vehicle.

    Loadshedding system advide needed please

    Pure sine wave inverter and two deep cycle batteries. Is that what you are looking at? How do you want to connect it to your house? 1) Standalone and you run leads to everything you want to run from it? 2) Like a generator where you switch over from municipal to standby mode? 3) Permanent...

    HEAR HEAR - The sound difference acoustics makes

    If I understand correctly you are trying to absorb the sound and not let it bounce back. Not sure if it can be related but many moons ago, for my final year script, I built and apparatus to test different sound absorbing materials. The one that came out on top was a fibreglass insulation...

    Speaker recommendation questions

    Thanks. Will have to play around with the settings to find it all.  I think the EQ setting I have set. The receiver has a -70db to 0db volume. So I need to run it at -35dB just to get normal listening volume, which probably compare to a 12oclock setting and probably a 2-3oclock setting to get...

    Speaker recommendation questions

    No not looking for volume.  Just don't like setting volume to 75% of max to hear anything. Maybe this explains it better: I have a Phillips receiver with matching speakers and it's not great.  So I connected my Boston speakers to it and the sound was much better with clear voices etc.  So I...

    Speaker recommendation questions

    Winslow I think I might be one of those who would ask about speaker recommendations (although a bit scared to do so now  ;)) All my friends have bluetooth speakers and soundbars but I still like a stereo system for CDs and LPs (will add some bluetooth to it some time) and surround at the tv...

    Samsung LED screen circles

    The glue degrades and the plastic diffuser things fall off. Latent defect if you ask me. Too scared to open the TV like that. Maybe someday if I get gatvol or have the money to buy a new TV if I screw up.

    DSTV Now will be limited to viewing on one device at a time only

    I think this is exactly what they want to try and stop. A Spotify method where all devices should be at one address should have been a better option imho

    PS It seems the diamond 10.6 is a much bigger speaker.

    Wharfedale Crystal 4 5.0

    I bought the speakers. Not sure if I over payed at R3k. They do not work great with my bad Philips AVR but getting a Denon AVR (1507 I think) soon to replace the Philips. He also had these nice looking Celestion F20 F10 and centre for sale. Much better quality than the Wharfedale but not sure...

    How do you differentiate between earlier and newer ones?  Model number?

    Samsung LED screen circles

    Must have been a batch where they used bad glue. I have seen videos of guys fixing it but think if I try I will just mess it up.
