    Soundbar AV amp?

    Hi Andrew, The Sonos Playbar sounds great and is right on budget. It plugs into your blu-ray player or TV via optical out. And if you want to add more weight to the proceedings in the future you can add a Sonos sub or Play 3 or 5's to handle rear effects. Cheers,

    Panasonic TX-P50GT50 Plasma TV - Vertical Banding

    I'm on my second panel (fitted last week) and it the banding is visible even on low contrast which is extremely irritating and poor for such a premium TV. I also think the replacement panel fitted bt Gogglebox is more grainy than the original, even though it doesn't buzz so much when there is a...

    What are you listening to?

    Kraftwerk, Tour De France remaster. WAV file streamed from my PC to my amp. A lesson in remastering and sounds superb.

    Chequers, I would be interested in buying your speakers if you are going to sell them.

    HMV Gone, but not forgotten

    Unfortunately limited choice will mean we could all pay more for music in the long run. For that reason alone I hope they survive. I don't think that CD's are about to die anytime soon as many still have players at home and in their cars. DVD sales may have cooled since the arrival of Blu-ray...

    Totem Dreamcatcher, Rega RS1 opinions please

    I own a pair of Dreamcatchers and used them in my original system paired with Cyrus. They sounded good, I still own them and they are now the rears in my AV system. I then upgraded them to the PMC DB1i, which were excellent, very detailed an analytical sound with plenty of bass on tap, but these...

    The best bookshelf speakers you have heard?

    Wilson Audio Duettes. I am fortunate enough to own a pair. DB1i is a great little speaker and so is the Totem Dreamcatcher. The best value pair of small monitors that I've heard recently is the Pioneer SA4SPTPM. The cabinets are made out of old oak whisky barrels. They are phenomenal speakers...

    Atlas Hyper 2.0

    I am using this cable in my Cyrus set up and I noticed an audible improvement - better base, more detail - switching from Chord Carnival SS. I hope to upgrade to Chord Signature at some point because having heard this it takes the sound quality it to another level.

    Have Merlin Cables gone bust or they unable to keep up with demand for their products?

    I placed an order for the Scorpion Digital cable at the Bristol Show and still haven't received it. The chap I met was very pleasant and chatty (he could talk he hind legs of a donkey), and seemed very genuine and keen for my business which was refreshing. I have since left umpteen messages on...
