    I am simply going mad QUEEN Cr O2 or Metal

    Type IV Metal casettes can be run hotter and tend to sound like CD's whereas Chrome tends to be a bit warmer/more analogue in their sonic signature, which to me is more pleasing on the ear.

    The Courier Guy

    and that is why I use Star Express! They do insure used goods. They do ensure goods are handled with the care they deserve. They do understand that a happy customer is a repeat customer. Their customer satisfaction rating speaks for itself! As for TCG.... Experience has taught me, they will...

    Banned from the forum

    Can one of the admin's please help VALVAGLO regain access to the forum. Seems he's been put in the naughty corner (banned) by way of a technical, probably IP related issue and the poor man is getting withdrawal symptoms. Thanks.

    Eskom again - Battery, charger and inverter recommendations

    Just remember that the Lithium batteries available to us for use in the solar market are all second life batteries, ie used electric vehicle batteries, which are effectively only manufactured by a small number of OEM?s and rebranded by many, so they?re not new and despite their 10 year warranty...

    Chillie Sauces

    I enjoy my home made chillie sauce as much as the next guy, but 1 Kg of chillies in 2 weeks is a lot of chillie sauce.

    Best DAC upgrade choice

    My personal experience too is that a decent dedicated DAC can outperform even a flagship processor in leaps and bounds. Drop Francois or Johan from Audio Exchange(here on the forum) a line, they set me up with a keeper.

    Aircon question

    Unless you?re looking for a quieter option the inverter is not the best choice, since they?re notoriously susceptible to problems presumably as a result of our not not so clean power supply. This is my personal experience with a 12000btu Samsung inverter as well as that of the folks who...

    Slowly the best are leaving our shores

    Can?t agree with you more Francois, every time I see/hear of a piece of good equipment leaving our shores I cringe at the thought, there goes one more piece of kit, which could have opened new horizons to someone local willing to take a chance. Despite being old these gems are leaps and bounds...

    Seeking Wolvebain

    I struck up a DAC conversation with Roilin aka "Wolvebain" some time back, but have in the interim changed phones and lost some of my contacts, yes some of us still manage to do that. Please drop me a pm if you have his contact details, I need to touch base with him.

    Siemens CCa valves

    @hope, if you're partial to cheese and beer that's definitely a worthwhile experiment. I spent Saturday afternoon with a very accommodating and accomplished Dutch Engineer of the time performing exactly this experiment, not on the CCa's specifically but with Telefunken E88CC (mostly platinum...
