    Weird music - my favourites

    My initial encounter with Deep Forest music was " what the ??!" Now I am a keen fan, so weird has a weird way of becoming beautiful!

    ASUS Router speeds

    Thanks very much for this tip, resolved some lag issues I was having on network using an older router (remote desktop), was at first reluctant to use newer ISP provided router, but it has meantime resolved issue.

    What kind of Audiophile are you?

    Agree 100%, my participation in this hobby has evolved over time too, I would not previously have considered attaching a "filthy" PC to my system; now here I am guiltlessly tinkering with JRiver and Associates every damned day!

    Another one bites the dust

    Clearly remember too, looking forward to Stereophile delivery from the USA each month! I won a cool set of headphones and a years subscription with HIFI World UK, RIP and thanks for the good reads!

    Amazon Prime Video HD/UHD?

    For me turned out to be the ISP connection speed/quality. Solved by changing provider.

    JHB Cable Listening Experiment

    Closely following this thread! Either way, getting rid of my Audioquest Midnight Speaker cables and its RCA cousins. I think I fall into this basket too!

    Headphone recommendations

    You're absolutely right on the bass front and sennheisers, though for me their ability to sound reasonably good across the genre spectrum is a plus. I have relegated my 18 year old HD600s to late-night movie watching and oft forget their on my wobbly head! Sent from my SM-J106H using Tapatalk
