I this I've found the problem My unit is a UK version. I wonder is there any way to flash non UK firware on UK model? http://www.pure.com/product/one-classic-series-ii-vl-61678/

Hi folks, I'm based in Dublin and picked up a pure classic series 2 for the kitchen. On auto tune it picks up the available dab stations along with their dab+ versions. When I change to the dab+ version of the channel I get a upgrade firmware message which I've done but I still get the message...

I've only recently noticed a difference in HD quality moving from a 42" plasma to a 50".. i thought all HD looked great on the 42" but on 50" you can see sometimes its not that great! It finally has made me appreciate the difference between sky hd and blu-ray.. . A lot of the time I was watching...

Do you have any pictures of the auralex pads in place? im tempted to order but feel they might look a bit clunky

Well its taken till nearly the end of the year, but i have replaced my VT30 with a 50VT65 and very happy with the results. I have the VT65 a few months now and had it calibrated yesterday. Its a great screen and the move from 42 to 50" has really been great. Im happy enough with the r one hd. I...

Yeah i think it would have been great value but the seller contacted me this moring to say he was selling to someone else.. pity as a pretty big saving!

hi guys, i have the opportunity to pick up this boxset at pretty much half retail price off a friend who is selling his set locally. Is it worth it? How far off is the mono box set? At the price i think its a fair punt Cheers, Mick

i wouldnt rule out the 'Lack' table from ikea in the first post.. i first came across it in this review http://news.cnet.com/8301-13645_3-10349195-47.html and have my Project RPM 5.1 on it.. think its a pretty ideal size for a turntable...

i went the secondhand route and bought a Project RPM 5.1 for not much more than your budget. It was in mint condition. Really love it. I had a Rega RP1 before that I had to sell to raise some cash and the Project is defintely a superior table. It would want to be for the price i guess new.

Listened to this twice last night.. Mid Air by paul buchanan http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mid-Air-Vinyl-Paul-Buchanan/dp/B007K0M24K/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1373441739&sr=1-1&keywords=paul+buchanan Absolutely hauntingly intimate... its the best sounding record I have . The silence on the...

Something else worth looking at maybe? http://www.monitoraudio.co.uk/products/radius-hd/r-one-hd/ I have one and very happy with it.. excellent fo movies and is pretty good for stereo through my av receiver with subwoofer engaged.. The advantage is you can add rears at some point in the...

my turntable is sitting on one of these.. http://www.ikea.com/ie/en/catalog/products/20011408/ I read about it online on a very well respected audiophile website... for the price.. you cant go wrong.. I cant fault it really..

well for movies up to 60% of the audio comes from the centre speaker so with the r one hd im not loosing anything from my old r225hd centre as the speaker in the r one hd is essentially a r225 with two r90hds tagged on each end.. to be honest i dont miss the other speakers at all, when i...

Thanks bb but i think my wife copped on to my cunning plan straight away... she was like... ohh i suppose a larger screen will be the next thing to land!
