    Help!

    Now the tiny bungs/caps are out I've tried pushing the banana plugs in but they won't go in, is there anything else inside that should be removed?

    Help!

    HELP! I've just purchased a Cambridge Audio Azur 651A amp, and a lot of a new speaker cable with banana plugs fitted. There are a couple of tiny plastic things on the speaker terminals on the amp but how do I fit the plug in the the amp? Basic you're probably thinking, but I am struggling here.

    Speaker Cables

    I am looking to replace some speaker cable and the longer length needs to go around what was an old (now bricked up) fireplace. I am looking at one of the QED series (Ruby Anniversary or the XT40). Are these flexable enough to curve around corners or can anybody think of an alternative. My...

    Cambridge CXA60 connection

    I am considering purchasing a Cambridge CXA60 amplifier. Does anybody know whether it would be possible to record using my old Sony Mini Disc recorder. I think playback should be quite simple, but could I still record? It would be a shame to lose this facility. Thanks.

    Cambridge Audio Amp problem

    I have a Cambridge Audio Azure 640 Amp that has developed a problem. When I go to turn it off via the ON/OFF button, the input selector just moves to the AUX/Phono selector and the unit stays on. I can however, turn the amp off normally with the remote control for my CA tuner. I purchased it...

    Blu-ray Pure audio

    Just a quick question. Are all Blu-ray Pure Audio releases region free? I was going to buy a release from Canada (cheaper than the U.K.) and I don't want to get stuck an unplayable copy. Many thanks.

    Stereo Amp & Universal Player

    I have a Denon Universal Blu-Ray / SACD / CD player connected to a Cambridge Audio amp. If I connect a television monitor to the Denon would it be possible to watch video while the audio comes through the amp? I know the audio would be 2 channel stereo - but is this possible? :?

    Pure Audio Blu-ray

    I have the Genesis 'Selling England By The Pound' Pure Audio disc and that sounds good, also have a Supertramp one on the way. The reason for my question was that I had been listening to the audio of the Led Zeppelin blu-ray, but was wondering if there was any difference between it and the...

    Pure Audio Blu-ray

    Is there any difference between the audio quality on a normal blu-ray release and the Pure Audio version, for example Led Zeppelin 'Celebration Day' .

    Mini Discs & A/V Receivers

    Is there any way of connecting a Sony MiniDisc recorder into the Sony STR-DN840 to record. Looking at the connections all I can see is possibly a playback connection? The dilema I have is buying a new A/V Receiver and possibly lose the record facility on the mini disc or buy a new amp and tuner...

    Adequate speakers for Sony STR-DN840

    In my previous post (Denon to Sony) I mentioned that I was considering purchasing a Sony STR-DN840 a/v receiver. It would be used for stereo playback initally, and I currently have a pair of B&W 600 series speakers. Would these old speakers be adequate for the purpose or would they be too weak...
