Thanks guys. Started a new job and havent been on here in a while. I went with a Grandview 100" from that place in Montague Gardens and I'm very happy with it.

Eish. Nothing in CT?  ???

Hi gents Where can I find a good value projector screen to suit my recently acquired (thanks Ari!) Optima HD66.  8) In Cape Town please. preferably at least 100 inch and roll up. Thanks! Craig

A nice big piece of presstick should do the trick and won't damage either.  ;)

I've put in on gumtree for R2k but seeing as I enjoy this forum so much, I'll let it go for R1 700 which really is very cheap for a 63 year old bottle of port. It was on bid or buy for R3/4k a year or 2 ago. The bottle is in brilliant condition as I said, as is the label and still full. I wish I...

Hi Gents, I need some advice. I was fortunate enough to pick up 2 1.5l magnums of some fantastic vintage (63 year old!) port at an estate sale. It came at some cost at a very...tight :) ...time of the year financially but was simply too good to pass up. My gf and I love the stuff. I'm...

Cool pic! Check that stalker oke in the background on the right hand side. Stylin...  ;D

I picked this baby up last night and I have to say, I'm more than happy with the purchase.  8) It has retro cool good looks and the "hum" when I plugged it in at lunch time was barely discernable, so either the previous owner had very good ears, mine are really bad, or the shifting around, etc...

I've had heartburn problems for years too. Nexium works but it is terribly expensive. You guys should try Ranihexal. It works just as well for me in cotrolling my reflux and it's R30 for 10.

That looks like it yes (Thanks google!): a 5 pin din socket. I can't say I've ever seen one before. The cable looks like a retail or off-the-shelf jobbie though. 5 pin din socket on the one end of the cable and two RCAs on the other. What's the chance that they wired it incorrectly?

I got the cd player with the B&O. It aready has an adaptor from RCA to the wierd looking B&O input. lol I gave the cd player a try last night and it works.  ;D There is some distortion as it gets louder, and only one channel seems to be working but it's a start. Must be a reception problem with...

I have a cd player that's compatible I think. I'll give it a try.

Hi gents I yesterday picked up a vintage Beomaster 1001 from a very nice gent who owned it from new in 1969. lol It's been in storage for the last 10 years!  :o Pretty cool looking tuner/amp I have to say. It switched on when I plugged it in which was a victory in itself. lol Here's the problem...

The cheapest I found was at wantitall believe it or not. Go for the Apogee one, apparently it's more reliable. I have one and it works perfectly.

Thanks, that was an interesting read. I'll have a look under the grills to see if everything looks kosher. Assuming it does, I'll offer him R1k or so and see what he says.

Hi gents I'm keen to make an offer on these floorstanders, but I'm not sure what they're worth. All the info I've been able to find so far has been very positive and they are very good looking speakers, in my opinion anyway. How much should I offer do you think?  ??? Thanks Craig

Thanks for the reply ludo. I'm not one normally to put my head under the hood so to speak :), but I'll give it a bash when I have some time on my hands.

Sorted! it must have been one of my speaker cables. I moved them around and distortion has pretty much disappeared. It's only discernible at insensible volumes. lol I know I'm I noob but what does this mean? It doesn't sound like english to me.  How much for the ST G with the import CD in...

Thanks. I'll try that tonight.

Hi gents I've started using a set of  B&W 601S3's for my stereo setup. It was in use in my surround setup before with no issues. None that I noticed anyway. Anyway, since I've moved it to the stereo setup (NAD 5120 tt, NAD 3150 plus laptop at times), I've noticed that there some serious...
