    Separate Crystalline Clock Boxes, do the Noughts and Ones add up?

    Ha, ha, ha. Perhaps, perhaps not.

    Separate Crystalline Clock Boxes, do the Noughts and Ones add up?

    Yeah not exactly clear what that means hey.... I didn't watch it though. I'm personally not interested in stand alone DACs, clocks or anything like that. I just listen to CD on a CD player into an integrated amplifier, etc. My view on CD players is to try and get a decent one I like the sound of...

    Imperfectly perfect? Hmmm.

    The Audio Cable Fraud (With Ethan Winer)

    My view on cables, for what it's worth, which is probably nothing is as follows. I like those Van Dam RCA cables with Neutrik Rean connectors. I don't expect them to sound any different to anything else, I just like them. They're not cheap or expensive I think, usually somewhere around twenty...

    Thanks for that Dave. Bleedin' hell! I hadn't come across it. In future, I'll reject all cookies and if they want money......they can swivel.

    Can someone enlighten me about this. I haven't encountered it, I think, and don't understand what's being discussed here. Excuse me, if it makes me appear like a brain dead idiot.

    Room 101

    The thing is, my comment was merely a joke about "Every inch of my love" not working very well in metric. It was meant to be an amusing comment, not a discussion about the relative merits of Zeppelin versus Small faces. I thought Simon's comment was funny, and that's what I wanted to convey...

    New amp that changed an uncompromising opinion and beat the opposition so convincingly I took it home

    That's a lovely looking amp, very, very, stylish and more to the point it sounds great, and you're happy with it. Excellent news. I must say, I too have been very pleased and impressed with my Class D Marantz Model 30. Maybe not quite as stylish as your Technics amp but, honestly it really does...

    Did you know?

    Allow me friends, fellow audio enthusiasts, indulge me, if you will, without thinking that I'm attempting to big myself up, because I, in addition am educated. I did a 1 year Foundation Course, and a 3 year BA Honours Philosophy Degree, at the University of Wales. I got a 2-1 and the...

    Ok, similar but hardly stolen. It's a different riff, different chord progression. Stolen, is rather a strong term. And what's that got to do with "Every inch of my love.." which was what the laugh was about. Maybe your a metric man, huh?

    I thought of a pet hate today. I think it's quite funny, any how it's metric over imperial. I'm sure most of us on here remember when we were forced in Britain to go metric whether we liked it or not. Well ....today me and Simon, my Brother were listening to Led Zeppelin. The song "A Whole Lot...

    What Hifi component should be the first priority?

    Yes....and.... Don't let anyone get to you. You have decent contributions to make, and I for one like reading what you have to say. In the end, it doesn't make any difference to anything, what any of us think. Stay put dude. 👍🏻

    Did you know?

    What, I'm wondering is, is the highly prized steel you're talking about emitting lower levels of background radiation because it was left under the ocean as well as being manufactured before 1945, or does that make no difference.

    What Hifi component should be the first priority?

    Yeah...the speakers need to be right for the room they're in, and right for you. If you're lucky and you're listening room is good acoustically, then you're going to find it easier to get hold of speakers that sound good to you. But all your components have to be up to the job. A shitty amp...
