Off topic, sorry. Another Lukather fan :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: "Luke" is a great album, however very different from "Lukather" takes a while to get used to but once you're there, its just superb to listen to. Some of the best bass guitar ever (It think it was Phil Soussan). Got all...

OK, so SPDIF and old component video cables used to be 75ohm something something.... So, how come these cables are 75ohm. Are they terminated into a plug that has 75ohm resistance? I want to know since I want to strip some old 75ohm component video cables and do something else with it...

OK, some advice please guys on a simple test I want to do in my system. I want to compare the impact on SQ of the following: - My pre-amp, utilizing an analogue volume control - MY DAC, utilizing a digital volume control. In the past I have almost always preferred analogue volume control, but...

oooh yes, this is good stuff. New album released by Steve Lukather called Transitions. Superb evolution from his previous two albums. Awaiting the CD to become available on Amazon, in the meantime downloaded from iTunes for the bargain price of R62. Absolutely worth it. One of the best...

Some help from the KEF Fundi's please. Got myself a set of Reference Model 1's, always wanted a set actually. These will occasionally be listened to critically in the next six months or so. So the question is, how does one typically set up these with Uni-Q drivers to image well. I'm not gonna...

So, no one is listed as an importer for Magico on the AVSA website. Anyone know if there is a local importer? thanks

The first proper hifi speaker I ever heard when I was young. Grew up in a middle class home with an OK Bazaars Sanyo music centre as reference, so listening to the LST's was, well, mindblowing at the time. Owned by friend's dad, and driven by a beefy NAD integrated amp, I think it was a 3060...

W.r.t. B&W C5, are there any owners here or guys who have tried these? Opinions please. They're not cheap, but I'm trying to ascertain whether these may be a worthwhile upgrade over standard iPod headphones and/or the likes of Sennheiser cx300 (which I particularly hate).

Anyone knows where one can get some recorded performances of Ben Schoeman? I love his style of play, reminds me a lot of Murray Perahia, of whom I'm a big fan. 

Hi Guys I'd appreciate some advice from those in the know about potential power problems at the hifi. The hifi works well and sounds great, but the following minor issues do occur that probably need resolving. 1. There is a faint hum emanating from the subwoofer, I think it might be coming...

Hi All. As the heading suggests, I would appreciate some opinions on what to consider in terms of small active speaker sets. Note these are not intended for critical listening i.e. utilization in a main system. The purpose would be to use said speakers in distributed audio systems throughout...

As mentioned in the recent cable thread, I am very curious and believe others might be too as to the outcome of this poll. This will obviously not solve anything and the final results will not form the basis of any future arguments on the matter (well...at least from my side...) Read the word...

I understand the basic difference between Class A and Class B type amplifiers. Where it gets interesting though is this so-called Class AB Bias I hear off. I see some amplifier experts on the forum, and other genuine knowledge?ables, so thought to post it here: What is Class AB bias, and most...
