    Stripped screw on my B&W M1 wall mount - what do i do?

    The drill size for M4 is 3.2/3.3 not 3.7. You will not have much thread if you drill 3.7 The recomended size is in fact 3.3 but i always drill 3.2. Rule of thumb: major dia minus pitch = drill size. In this case 4-0.7=3.3

    If all the children in each generation had taken advice from the parents we would be masters of the universe, me thinks one day in the shower. :teach:

    Monitor Audio Bronze 5 package vs Monitor Audio Bronze 6 package

    If you want to play a lot of stereo then I would go for the BX6. I often watch sport(on silent) while playing music in my TV room and the BX6 is not bad. If you plan to get a separate stereo then maybe BX5 is good enough.

    monitor RX8

    I went from bookshelf speakers to Silver 10's and was a little overwhelmed by the bass to start with but now I enjoy them very much.

    MP3 to WAV/FLAC converter Recommendation please

    I have to admit that i find it very difficult to tell the difference between cd/flac and MP3 320kbps when playing through my speakers, and yes I do stop and listen. My equipment is not the best but on the other hand not too shabby (see below). But  I'm a couple of weeks shy of 62 so that may be...

    What does bass duty in your system?

    In my home office I have a Earthquake Couch Potato (CP8) It's a low profile sub that sits under the draw side of my desk. It does a great job keeping the low frequencies off my desk where my speakers have to sit. On my AV is a MA BXW10. Not a great sub but perhaps good enough for TV. For stereo...

    What is the highest resolution music / sound I can get ?

    I agree with with Pagan. Getting the music you want in the format that's best is not always possible. Even the best CD shops have limitations to what they stock. Downloading HI-Res flac files cost a lot of money and data use. A well recorded MP3 can still sound good. Just buy music from where...

    1 or 2 systems??

    Spend time with your family, you will never get that time back. I am now near retirement and have plenty of time to listen to music but I would rather be  with my grand kids and families.

    Best Value for money Dslr Camera Under 5k

    Go to Orms (CT) or Out Door Photo ODP (PTA) and get prof. advice. Do not, I repeat, do not buy from a chain store. Would you advise someone to buy there first HiFi from Dions, I think not. My advise would be not to buy a package/bundle, those lenses are  not so great. You can pick them up for a...

    HiFi makes you dont like without a real reason.

    Still using a Nakamichi A3 from the 90's in my study, great little amp. Never liked Bose & B&O

    Monitor Audio BX2

    Just added a pair of BX1's in my study, driven by a Nakamichi A3. Very happy. I have a pair of BX2's doing duty as front heights in my HT setup. Maybe I should swap them out, although I like the smaller front print on my desk.

    Do you sometimes take a break from Audio

    HT every day but my main stereo is only used at weekends. Very often I watch sport and play music through the HT, better than the commentary.

    FLAC to WAV and then WAV to FLAC again?

    Surely quality can only be lost when saving the edited mp3 file.
