Well thanks to Vaughan and Stu for their advice and this write up, I purchased the M1's with the B&W ASW610 sub. They kit it powered by a Marantz SR5006 and has been sitting at my in-laws for over a month. I got back to SA for "summer vacation" for my kids and spent the past 2 days testing this...

Hi All, I  seriously considering investing in a turntable soon, have a lot of records from my old man but need to get some of the newer stuff. Any store in Durban/Johannesburg area? Thanks

Galaxy S3 is great phone for the features, size can deter some, however awesome with Android Ice Cream Sandwich OS. Its the one to beat right now. Pity in SA they ripping people off with the pricing. Up where I am, it cost R4800 bucks compared to the R7000 they want in SA.

Okay this may sound like a stupid question, I know what DAC stands for and it purpose. But where exactly would one use it in a HT set-up or a stereo set-up. I mean I have a Rotel RCD 1520 which already has a DAC in it, my Zepplin Air has a DAC in it, I play Apple Lossless format via Airplay...

They should stick to making mobile handsets and TV's, I heard this system here up here today in Lagos, sounds okay, nothing special to be honest and it cheaper here, around R7000.

Hi All, Any aesthetically pleasing cable ducts available to cover up wall mounted speakers. I cant really chase into the walls as the place is rented and don't want to leave the wires for the fronts and rears hanging. Looked at some Vogels 4cm cable ducts in silver finish, these look good...

Hi All, Wondering what happened to these? I recall seeing them whever I went, my dad owned a Sansui system with one. I had a Aiwa mini hi fi with one and then they dissapeared, the ones on iTunes dont count  :) Has technology advanced so much that you dont need them for home use anymore. You...

I am considering these as well to bring up to Lagos. What you driving them with in terms of amp power? I was hoping they were musical enough and you review says it all. Thanks

Thanks, Guess I will have to test the MT60D and see what it sounds like when I am in SA.

Hi All, Anyone heard these in action,Im up in Africa so I have to wait a few months till Im in SA, Are they good for music as well. While my Yamaha Soundbar is brilliant with movies,the not so good with all the DVD concerts and Blu Ray I own. Thanks

Hi All, I have a Yamaha YSP 4100 Sound Projector which has 4in/1out HDMI connections, I have my DSTV HD,PS3 and Blu Ray player connected. Sometimes when I switch between HDMI connections or if it tries to output to the TV, I get a horrible interference noise,almost like when tuning a TV...

Thanks, are these available in SA.

Hi All, So up here in West Africa, power is serious problem. The compound I live in runs on generators around 14 hours a day and cuts at least 5 times a day often. My apartment has a voltage regulator "at least this is what it looks like" but I cannot trust it. For both my LCD TV's/DSTV HD PVR...

Thanks, just the answers I was hoping for  :)

Good one, I might use this in a few months  :winkwink: Now I just need to my son to skateboard around the speakers without his mother catching him.

Hi All, Being lurking this forum for sometime now, did one post last year. I am in the Telecommunications Industry working outside of SA in other parts of Africa at the moment. Been up in East Africa past 6 years. Spent 5.5 years in Uganda and now in West Africa (Nigeria) for the past 6...

Hi All, I am fairly new to the world of Hi Fi and have just ordered the above kit with B&W 685's. Still waiting for delivery of them. I heard the B&W 685's last year with the smaller Rotel amp and CD player (RA-06)It sounded awesome to my ears. Since I am working up in Africa, I haven't had...

I bought these 2 weeks ago. I cant tell you that they are absolutely awsome. Sound Quality is impressive, had no issue with them getting HOT around the ears. Noise insulation for me is also good, use them on a flight with my Ipod, beats anything else that I have owned to date.

Hi All, Firstly, I am absolute newbie to this world of higher end AV sound, when I say this I have currently have a Blu Ray Samsung HTiB kit which has been serving me well for the past few months but then a bug  :D has hit me and now I want to upgrade. This is going to be done is stages over...
