    What's wrong?

    @Ingvar Ahlberg I have noted your love for SA reds a few times before, especially the Allesverloren. I import French oak products/barrels into South Arica and am proud to list Allesverloren as a client. I even mentioned a grizzly looking Swede who are championing their products to the winemaker...

    ASUS Router speeds

    Thank you again for all the replies and info, guys. The router in the back room is an ASUS RT-AX56U AX1800 Wifi 6. I see they are on Takealot for R1,900.00 or so. That would work too, right? And might even sync better? I am going to be out of office for a while so will report back soon. But...

    Thanks for all the replies, guys! I love this forum, have been here a decade but dont post much. Feel like I know most of you personally, though. I am quite scared to tinker on router settings myself, as we had a Sunsynk battery install done at the back of the house and the installer used a...

    Samsung Q60R Optical output quality

    Anyone else with same issue? Is it just a given that a TV would degrade a digital input via its optical output?

    Samsung Q60R Optical output quality

    Thx for the response. So my fears that the Samsung would degrade the digital signal were warranted? So even basic lossless Apple Music from Apple tv through my tv to my dac would not be true lossless? Are there no settings to assure pure signal passthrough to my dac?

    Passing of Dubya Jay Dee

    I did not have many dealings with Wessel, but the time I spent at his house a few years ago buying a pair of pristine Vandies left a big impression on me. A real gentleman. Sorry for your loss.

    What if the Talking Heads made a comeback
