I have an old Marantz SR8001 with a few issues, all digital audio(hdmi/optical/coax) gets no audio and when using analogue audio there is a slight buzzing sound. I'm looking for recommendations on a place/person that can take a look at it and see if it's fixable. If I can get it fixed I will...

Thanks

Any recommendations on batteries then? And any idea on the continuous power draw limit on the sunsynk inverters?

Going the victron route is a significant higher capital outlay. The hubble's support up to 4 series to get 48v . Will be using it with a battery balancer though https://www.geewiz.co.za/lithium-ion-batteries/187470-hubble-s-200-256kwh-12v-200ah-lithium-ion-lifepo4-battery.html...

Looking into replacing our current SMA Sunny Boy 4kva Grid Tie inverter with a Hybrid inverter from Sunsynk/Deye so we can add batteries for loadshedding purposes. What is the continuous output on the 5kw Hybrid inverters? Is it 5kw? Would using Hubble/Mecer 2ndlife Lip04 12v 200ah batteries...

Ended up getting a Pioneer Z5150bt

That is an impressive headunit, at R14k it's significantly more than I can afford

A 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, I'm quite a bit sceptical on some of the stuff being pushed locally, and at crazy prices, especially the onenav systems

Noted, just a bit far for me

I'm looking to upgrade my OEM radio in my car to an aftermarket one with Andriod Auto. A double din headunit fits in my car and I already have all the accesories needed for it, just the question of the headunit. I have looked at various online stores and the few reviews online, it seems that...

Great to know :P

These Audio Technica's are slightly over R500 but pretty decent for the money https://www.cplanaudio.co.za/collections/c-plan-specials-incredible-value/products/audiotechnica-ath-ax3is-sonicfuel-over-ear-headphones-black Otherwise I do have a set of Pioneer SE-A1000 I can let go for R500

My Marantz has 7.1 analog input. Essentially the Soundcard will performing the DAC function

Used to have a card like that many years ago. unfortunately PCI is no longer supported on my motherboard

I have used Optical from the PC to AVR, but the only surround it supports is compressed DTS and DD5.1. Unlike HDMI which supports PCM for 5.1. If I want to stick to using an AVR to to process digital audio. I'd either have to get the HDMI board replaced on my Marantz, which is not a cheap...

Thanks. will do :P

I'm looking for a 5.1 capable Sound Card for my PC. even though my motherboard has Realtek ACL1150, it doesn't sound good. and unfortunately the HDMI board on my AVR has problems. Creative have these two similarly priced products https://us.creative.com/p/sound-cards/sound-blasterx-ae-5 and...

I would like to find out if it's worth getting the HDMI board on my Marantz AVR fixed. I only use it for audio from my PC. If it's not worth fixing would going the dedicated Sound Card option be better? As the SR8001 does have 7.1 Analogue inputs The HDMI light on it is a constant blue, but it...

I was recently in the same situation, bought myself a set of Sony h.ear on 3's via amazon renewed. Was just over R2000 delivered to my door. And they sound fantastic with decent ANC and 35 hours of battery life :D https://www.sony.com/electronics/headband-headphones/wh-h910n

I see now that the ps5 doesn't have an optical out.... something like this should work...
