Hi Thank you very much for the responses. This gives me some additional info and options to pursue. The component in question is a Sanyo turntable that used to be part of a stack Hi-Fi system. As far as I am able to ascertain it plugged into a dedicated power socket on the amplifier.  The AC...

Hi I have a component that requires a 100VAC (not 110VAC!), 50Hz power supply, but this is proving to be a much bigger challenge for than I first believed it would be. In my mind (and please forgive my ignorance on this - I am no electronics expert) this could be either: * A dedicated PSU, or...

Hi KK, that looks stunning man! Well done....

Hi chrisc Thanks for trying to help. Fuse checked, no reset button exists. Simply doesn't even switch on. Regards

Unfortunately it is the amplifier, not the speaker.

Anyone know of somebody in Cape Town that can attempt a repair on a 150 Watt RMS Bash plate amp from a PSB Subsonic 5i Subwoofer? How I rue that I had missed the last Parapix plate amps that were offered here a few months ago. Regards 

Wow, I didn't know that! I got all my information about passive radiators from the internet. I have learnt a lot by doing this project and I'm still learning, as your point proves. Question; would they still be "passive" radiators if their characteristics were controlled by circuitry? @ JNouw...

Thanks A! I believe they will surprize you, when you hear them paired with the (now finaly sorted) Rogers.You know you & Dean are always welcome to come around... @ Heinrich, CAD, etc: Just bought a set of good quality no-name brand 8" drivers with a paper cone and a decent foam suspension...

Thank you, I had great fun building them! The speakers have a bit of batting inside - just enough to tame those standing waves bouncing about in there. As I said, I have limited space so they are fairly close to the rear wall - about 10cm, I reckon. They would probably sound even better with a...

Hi I have been interested in the idea of full range speakers for some time and decided that one day I would experiment with the concept when the time was right. So, recently one of our respected dealer-members had a sale on some Skytronic fullrangers and I took the plunge and bought a few...

I would be very grateful if you could bring mine down to Worcester with you and then we can make an arrangement to pick up.... I will PM you my cellphone number. Regards

Hi Try the following: Caldis, Epiphany, Audiovision There are also specific individuals holding agencies for certain brands, e.g.  the ADL (Furutech) DAC options...

This is exactly the type of thing that Peter Aczel went on a crusade against in his "the Audio Critic" publication, as early as the 80's already. He called a spade a spade and made a number of enemies along the way - but he also made a lot of friends.... As far as these devices go - what a croc...

Hi Steerpike Those Studers are gorgeous! Here's mine: Devore Fidelity "The Nines" (No words required) Spendor Classic SPR 100R2 (Just look at it!!!!) Images not my own, borrowed from the web.

AR (First serious speaker, cannot remember model number, but they were smallish, flattish bookshelves with a plastic trim above the grille. I loved these! - stolen) Infinity Reference 20 (sold recently) B&W V203 (Still IMHO some of the best I've ever owned - still have them, on loan to my dad)...

This is an awesome find, Congratulations!!! I happen to own a fully complete one (original plinth) that was owned by my father since new, so for sentimental reasons I can never part with it. The platter alone weighs almost seven pounds and the arm is actually not bad at all. This is quite a...

Was priveleged to attend a presentation held by a person that attended the latest CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas. He showed us photos of what apparently is the real revolution in terms of HD; small (size of two packs of 20's), near-field (only requires 10 - 15 cms), 8K projectors...

Similar experience regarding "new" pressings, mixed bag - some very good, some cr@p to be careful about: 6. St Germain Tourist 7. Depeche Mode Speak & Spell

Thanks a million Heinrich!

This is absolutely great if Heinrich is still on track! I am in desperate need of a couple of enclosures. Can I please add my name to the order list? Heinrich, I sent you a PM. Regards
