    Question BBC Radio in Hi-Res?

    You want Radio 1 for that. 6Music is, comparatively, for the more discerning listener... :cool:

    Question BBC Radio in Hi-Res?

    Beyond the screenshot of the codec information I included I don't know; its just something I came across several years ago and have been using ever since. Maybe this might help? View: https://www.reddit.com/r/radio/comments/17hmoc8/bbc_radio_live_links_gone/

    Question BBC Radio in Hi-Res?

    I listen to 6Music (pretty much the only radio I listen to) using VLC and an m3u8 file that I have saved on my desktops and on all my Android devices: The file itself has the text: #EXTM3U #EXT-X-VERSION:3 #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:pROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=339200,CODECS="mp4a.40.2"...

    Question Need help identifying the speakers and record deck...

    Thanks again! My curiosity was piqued by a conversation I had with, ultimately, my boss - the Rector (Scots Headteacher) at the school at which I teach. I knew she had a good record collection, and she said yesterday she has a Linn turntable - but she also asked me about this (now defunct)...

    Question Need help identifying the speakers and record deck...

    Thanks all! Thanks for identifying the Alnico Signature speakers @Al ears as I wasn't sure of the model. I recall being told that there was a family connection between the speakers and the turntable, so SystemDek it would be - thanks @nopiano and @amormusic All the best folks!

    Question Need help identifying the speakers and record deck...

    Some nine years ago I popped into Jordan Acoustics in Glenrothes (now no more) to enquire about buying some headphones; I had no idea what was behind the innocuous door of this wee place located in a local community shopping complex. I didn't buy any headphones but I was treated to a listen of...

    Question Don't suppose anyone knows how to disassemble Mordaunt Short Avant 914i speakers..?

    Forgot to report back - how remiss of me! In the end I did use some rubber cement (I’m a cyclist so used a new tube from a puncture repair kit; meant it was nice and runny) and just laid the speaker flat so the glue ran into the gap where it had opened up. Let it dry for a day and I certainly...

    Question Don't suppose anyone knows how to disassemble Mordaunt Short Avant 914i speakers..?

    Thank you. I've emailed MS to ask about disassembly; it seems that the aluminium front panel is glued/bonded in place so removal may not be an option - will attempt rubber cement from the fron!

    Question Don't suppose anyone knows how to disassemble Mordaunt Short Avant 914i speakers..?

    Thanks, @Al ears - at first, and before posting, I'd incorrectly thought the four bolts were purely attachment points for the grille but a Torx bit unscrews them; next stage is to removing the aluminium front which I hope can be done by pushing it out from the bass port directly behind.... Yes...

    Question Don't suppose anyone knows how to disassemble Mordaunt Short Avant 914i speakers..?

    Hi - I used to be a forum member many moons ago but can't recall what my username was, or what the email address I used at the time was, so starting afresh. I have a pair of MS Avant 914i floorstanding speakers that I use with a Denon DM37 mini-system in my home-office; last night I heard some...
