    Marantz amp cutting out

    It generally gets played at around 9pm, but it has started cutting out at around between 10/11 if turn it up a bit. It used to be able to cope with those volumes absolutely fine and sounds fantastic. . At the moment they are running some Q Acoustic 3020s. The only thing I can think of is a...

    Marantz amp cutting out

    I've had a Marantz PM6002 amp for a while. Been very very good. Recently on occasion it has started to cut off. It will stop playing sound and the mute light will flash on the front of the amp. Other people online have had the issue but I haven't really seen a resolution to the problem. Has...

    Tweeter problems

    It's a while back but I think I did probably run both together at some point, although they didn't blow during this time, changed it back due to space issues! Sorry if this may sound stupid, but the amp would only be able to run one set of speakers at any one time?

    Tweeter problems

    I've had a Marantz PM6002 amp for a while. It has been paired in it's time with Mordaunt Short 902i standmounts and Tannoy F4 floorstanders. Both sounded great through the amp. In both sets of speakers however the tweeters have gone. Music is never turned up ridiculously loud as I live on a...

    £200 speakers

    Yeah I think this need for a new pair has come at the worst possible time in terms of getting the best deal. Tannoys will cost around £210 compared with Q Acoustics £190. May just hang on and see what deals crop up and have some will power for the time being.

    £200 speakers

    OK. It's between the 3020s and the DC6s. Might hold out for a bit and see what kind of feedback the 3020s get when they have been out for a period of time and organise a demo. Cheers.

    £200 speakers

    I'm replacing my bookshelf speakers and tossing up between a couple of choices. I have a Marantz pm6002 amp and am replacing my mordaunt short 902i. At the moment I'm thinking the wharfedale 220 or tannoy dc6. I own some tannoy F4 and was fairly impressed with those for the money. Has anyone...

    GT50 motion blur

    Had the Panasonic GT50 for around two years. It's been great but recently started to see motion blur. Can barely read any credits or fast rolling text on screen, just looks almost 3D. I bought it from John Lewis so decent guarantee, are there any grounds for taking it back to the retailer? It...

    Plasma TV - multicoloured flashes.

    Using normal at the moment whilst running it in. Could be just needs time to settle. As a side point, I read a while ago a way to check how many hours your tv has been running for, anyone know what it involves? Might have been something to do with accessing developers menu, which I'm not crazy...

    Plasma TV - multicoloured flashes.

    Yeah it is only a flicker. Not really sat that far away from the TV, only bought it about a week ago so still setting up the room a bit. So whether sat too close which causes you to have to flick your eyes around the screen more than you would from a normal viewing distance. See how it goes!

    Plasma TV - multicoloured flashes.

    Recenty bought viera GT50. It's the first time I've owned a plasma tv so could be standard thing with plasmas or possibly just something to do with me! The picture is absolutely incredible on the tv. But when watching images which are particularly bright, when your eyes flick away from the tv it...

    Panasonic or Sony

    I have the option to buy the Panasonic L47ET5B for £310 or the Sony Bravia KDL40HX853 with 5 year warranty for £450. Any opinion on which one considering difference in cost? I'm selling my old tv and a bit of birthday money to spend. Plus with the Sony I'd sell the blu-ray player and James Bond...
