    Buffalo Linkstation Mapping Issue

    There used to be several threads on this issue in the Buffalo Forums. What OS are you running? What Linkstation is it? Have you checked that IP Address is correct? It can reset when there's a power cut. You could try re-mapping the drive as a differnt drive name

    Arcam Blu-ray

    I contacted Arcam in 2006, as I was considering buying a CD36 and had heard that some of their products were made in China. They confirmed at that point, the CD73, AVR250 and Solo were manufactured in China. You may want to ask them where their current range is manufactured, it may be the...

    Sony TV Fault - Consumer Rights Question.

    The law's a bit odd on things like this, anything that fails to work properly within six months of purchase is considered to have been faulty at time of purchase and thus is a breach of contract, so you could even ask for your money back. However, the supplier is entitled to offer you repair...

    AirCo causes heavy interferences to my MF A300

    Jasabel, Consider asking an electrician what it would cost to install a dedicated mains spur for the HI-Fi, if it's cheaper than the Mains Conditioner, it may be worth getting one for the Air Conditioner as well.

    benefits or otherwise of going Freesat

    I've got Freesat in South Wales, it's a much better quality signal than my Freeview one, and I had my aerial and cabling replaced a few years back when I moved, so it shouldn't be down to the fact that the Freeview is on old cable.

    Routing a Freesat Aerial Cable

    Thanks Haystak and daveh75, I've already got the quad LNB, now I know how much cable to get, I thought that I was going to have to buy a 100 metre drum of Webro WF100 so that I had enough for a 30 metre run as most places don't sell it in pre-cut lengths of over 20 metres. I'll have to think...

    Why all the bad press for What HI-FI?

    Surely if the "majority" of the readers aren't going to use the in-built tuner, then to the "majority" of purchasers buying from the What Hi-Fi review it's a Five star TV. At least they put in a caveat about the tuner so that those like yourself would be aware of the need to compare tuners. If...

    Diminishing Returns.

    This is a bit subjective really, what do you use as a 100% baseline?, there are some very expensive systems out there and if even if you spent £100,000 you could get two systems that sound totally different. I have two different systems at home, I enjoy the sound from both, but I couldn't state...

    Remote control hell.

    I went the Philips Pronto route years ago, it's a shame that because mine is one of the early ones there aren't suitable ccf files for some of my kit, but recreating them will give me something to do when college is over.

    What are your 2010 hifi resolutions?

    Mine's to buy a mains conditioner, so that I gave something safer/neater to run my bedroom kit through than the extensions currently used. I'm not allowed any other resolutions involving spending money, 2009 witnessed the purchase of two Panasonic TVs + 1 Wall mount,1 Sugden Ampmaster, 1...
