    saw them last night in Bristol. They are amazing live. It was Big Chris” enthusiasm that got me listening to them. Now seen them 3 times in 3 years.

    Xbox one X with 3 games for £250 at Currys

    Nice one Gel ive just ordered one. Can't say I'd buy those games normally, although Forza 7 has been optimised for the One X. If nothing else I can get a big discount by selling the games on. Just to to be clear when ordering. You need to add those 3 games to your basket with the console. The...

    Av-hifi rack

    i have a couple of these units. They are built to a design but you can request alterations to suit your need e.g. I had a back put on with vent/cable holes. Very solid and I expect it would take any weight you could throw at it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/122144017825...

    I agree but I'm not sure £400 on speakers unless it's a 2nd hand bargain will be the answer.

    Sorry but to suggest changing a CD player will sort this is audiophile BS. perhaps adding a subwoofer. I haven't done it myself but some (if not all) subs could be connected to the pre outs of the Cyrus amp. Worth investigating. Some people seem to define speakers that don't rely on distorted...

    On Sunday, went to see Red Hot Chilli Peppers in Birmingham. Support was from Babymetal. The band is very talented but I couldn't really get on with the vocal (a bit Alvin & the Chipmunks) the support slot of around 40 mins was about right. They are less annoying listening via Spotify. Red Hot...

    Last week. The Sisters of Mercy. A band with a very "complicated " history. Really enjoyed it. They did most of the songs you want. Great version of Alice. A foggy night in Bristol. https://youtu.be/WQuQyjE3AIQ

    On Saturday night, Opeth at Wembley Arena. I couldn't drop Zak off at the dog sitter till after 5, so it was always going to be tight. The traffic on a Saturday night is always difficult but last night was pretty bad. The regular entrance to the car park was shut so had to follow a vague...

    Which micro hi-fi should I get?

    If it's for on your desk whilst working can I assume you are using a PC ? If so, and it has a cd drive & BT then all your needs are met. A good pair of powered/active speakers or headphones would be enough. (If you're only listening whilst working, headphones might be better.
