Wanted: microphone stands
Another long shot, I am on the lookout for microphone stands. They are available from music shops and online from Thomann but if there is one or two kicking around unused, I am interested. Condition is not very important Thanks

Small device needed to get Spotify music to a mini hi-fi system
In our house we have a mini hi-fi system in the kitchen area. What small sized device do I need to pickup music on Spotify and input it to the mini system? I have a Sonos system in the house but the Sonos Connect, which would do the job nicely, is too large for where it is to go. So I am looking for...

Re: End of an era
I met him at a London Hi-Fi Show a good number of years ago. Very snazzy suit he wore that day. Sad to hear of his passing. RIP

Re: The Dublin Audio Show - November 16/17 2019
Ah I see it all now. I use my hi-fi system to play music. Others use their systems for AV and music so the ultra low frequency sounds are needed for AV. Begs the question though: what is the sub woofer doing if the main speakers are doing all the work?

Re: The Dublin Audio Show - November 16/17 2019
One of the demos at the show was a fairly ordinary tune but at one stage a very low unmusical bass kicked in. Much lower in frequency than even the low B of a 5 string bass, it added nothing to the overall tune except show that the speakers could reproduce such notes and still work as speakers! Anyo...

Re: The Dublin Audio Show - November 16/17 2019
Just to clarify things, my liking of the Naim/Focal room was for the smaller setup. Not the filing cabinet sized amps. And the large Focal speakers attached to those monster Naim amps simply sounded very bright and unnatural. Brash and 'modern' sounding. Not smooth and comforting [slightly dull!] as...

(2) There was no system priced for first time buyers. Way back when Cloney ran the show, there was always a 'Show Special' system costing around £600 all in. One of the cheapest systems being demoed at the show was the aforementioned Naim/Focal system. In round figures about €5K. I know that a deal...
