Re: Turntable DUAL CS-455-1 - SOLD

Would it have to go back to Wales to be set up for the Ortofon MM cartridge Ivor? From what i have read so far there is a big difference between MC and MM cartridge setup. Appears to be a good phono stage from several reviews i have read. Might drop in to Cloneys this week to see if they have any i ...

Re: Anyone tried JPlay?

Only slight issue is the CPU fan is working overtime but i can live with that for the moment. Spent the weekend listening to lots of 16 bit 44 kHz albums and have had a lot of difficulty pulli...

Re: Anyone tried JPlay?

Tried it on a laptop with Vista and it has to be the best upgrade ever for 99euro. Absolutely blown away by the sound coming from everything i threw at it.

Re: What is the best value iPad clone tablet?

Have to say i am a fan of iPeng on iPad, seems to be the best App out there for Squeezebox control.

If you do go the Android route then Squeeze Commander seems to be the favourite at the moment though i have not used it myself.

Re: Migraine

Try Panadeine next time, it can be hard to find a chemist who stocks it but worth the effort if it works for you.
i always carry some when travel.
Hope you get well soon.

Re: Marten Design Bird Speakers for sale.

Very tempting....if only i had not wrecked my bank balance after visiting the Scalford Show this year.
I jumped on the tubes and electrostatics wagon on my return.

Best of luck with the sale.
