What do you need to connect via HDMI (I assume a TV as you mentioned ARC)? Cannot see it being an improvement over other inputs (at least digital) if being used for stereo only. Those 1s and 0s are still gonna go through the same DAC.

Nice! Very unusual for interconnects to fail but at least it was that and not something more expensive to replace. I used to have the AV version of that Soundstyle rack. Looks great. Hopefully I can get hold of one again.

As DG says, you can just connect the TV to the amp via HDMI. Job done on that front. The pairing should be pretty solid, certainly if this is your first foray into hifi. The Yamaha amp was well reviewed back when it was released. The only thing lacking is eARC/Atmos support (which is found in...

I use these for my CDs and Blu-Ray. 2 x 400 capacity ones from Amazon fit perfectly into a Kallax storage cube. 😊

It looks great!

Whilst I agree it's not ideal, the Amazon basics cables are pretty decent. I would get these and see how it performs. If it's no good then you could send them back. At least you will know. Could be fine. (I suspect it will be).

Does it still occur if you switch the router off?

Ah, but you have forgot the certainty that a first attempt at inserting a USB A device is always the wrong way. Or is that just me....😂

Cool. So yeah, can just use the tape loop to connect it up.

I want to say 'yes' but it's been over 30 years since I used a Graphic Equaliser. Can you add the model or pics of the back?

KX-3060. Hopefully a better photo than my thread.

Not seen that before. I think it looks great! I still have my Kenwood cassette deck. Bought it brand new back in the late 90’s and never used it much so it’s still in great shape. I just keep it for nostalgia more than anything but I still have a few albums and audiobooks (Hobbit, Lord of the...

Update time. The Q Acoustics are being moved on. Whilst they are great speakers, I miss the detail and clarity I get from Monitor Audio. I also found the soundstage a little too contained (if you watch the review by Terry Ellis on Persuit Perfect System I think he has this spot on). In come...

I’ve had that pop up on FB. Looks really nice.

Nice! Back in the day (between me and a friend I lived with), we had 750LE, 751, 752F, 753F, 754F, 75C and 75AS. Basically the whole range. 😊
