    Happy Hunting... Remember no "system" is better - as it's just what YOU choose, which is best for YOU.

    Would a HiFi setup sound better than a home cinema setup for music?

    Wow, what an answer, me - I started with a Valve Radio that My Dad always had, up on a shelf near where the long-wire (it was about 30ft up and about 150 foot of 1/4 twisted multi-strand wire, on a couple of very high wooden towers such that it was "run" east / west - from near the back of the...

    Streaming to a Naim Amp

    I absolutely loved seeing that...!!! It explains so much about how the Northern Audiophiles "assume" they know all the bells & whistles, and consider what THEY have must be the Bees-Knees of Audio systems. Yeah what a statement. Has me cracking a smile away down here in the deep (cold) South -...

    Confectionery you lust for.

    Ah but do you know "what" to dunk, not just how to do it? I leant many moons ago, as there was an advert on TV with a sing-song that went along with it. I can't remember it all now but it was all about: Griffin's Ginger Nuts. Sort of like the red-haired lad from Ophir, who used to come in to...

    Confectionery you lust for.

    I have though, found something that may "tilt" that craving over the edge again... A world wide petition, to Mother's Cookies, to bring the Flaky Flix "back". https://www.change.org/p/ferrero-bring-back-flaky-flix-cookies

    Confectionery you lust for.

    I'll second that. In a different way, I used to enjoy almost all forms of sweets and chocolates, as well as the odd drop of Alcohol (maybe not so much a drop, because I turned into an alcoholic, thus since 1978, I haven't partaken of that ever since) As for confectionary, if I could get my hands...

    Advise on old home theatre system

    From the sounds of it (excuse he pun) was that old home theatre system in the room, before you shifted in? As it may then simply only need you to hook your player into an aux port and have it working properly from the get go, or contact an audio serviceman close by, and see what he can do for...

    How To How to connect amplifier to home sound system

    Or? If you know which is best, don't bother with an expensive addition (such as the hugely gross 2ch home theatre type sound system - shown above), just toss an Analogue Deplexer-Decoder onto the analogue L/R outputs, of any headphone socket, by plugging it directly in there, and feed however...

    Quadraphonic Recordings?

    Hi, I know that I am NOT in the UK or even in the USA (or for that matter, in any country NORTH of the middle of this planet). I arrived into this world (down under) as the third child of a fairly poor orchardist family, who's main worker (Dad) did almost all of his many farming ventures, alone...

    Budget speakers and stereo amp

    What, have you (plastic penguin) NEVER HEARD of a multiple-way audio/video TV input selector switch, that allows you to connect multiple RCA/VA devices into the single TV inputs, wow, where have you been hiding, as I've known about and bought many over my 70 years here in New Zealand (you know...

    Budget speakers and stereo amp

    Yes, because with THREE speakers, you get a fuller, immersive sound, than the limited node that is made by two frontal speaker placements. Think of a small "fuel tank stand", and it's supporting legs. 1/- One leg (MONO) has to be very thick, dense and thus has to be strong enough to support an...

    Budget speakers and stereo amp

    I'd love to tell you "how" to alter a simple absolute rock bottom "elcheapo" (internally bridged) mini-stereo-amp, to drive a three channel surround sound system as a basic starter, but to do it that way, requires the purchase of very expensive audio toroids of the 1:1 variety, to cross two (non...
