    Dulcet listening impression

    Hi Kent, Unfortunately I am not the best writer of reviews of audio equipment - perhaps I could get some lessons from you  :) The Dulcet does everything well - I thought I would just highlight the things that it does very well. Jandre

    Magnepan Tympani IIIB

    Hi Francois, I can just confirm the brilliant work that Chris Human does - my Maggies 2.5R's are back after a visit to him to have them refurbished - they sound and look brand new - and the shipping was nearly more than the cost of fixing them - he is a master. Hope you get to enjoy your...

    Dulcet listening impression

    First of all - a big thankyou to Geco for trusting me with his prototype Dulcet - and sending it all the way down to Bloem so we can also have a listen - and to River for bringing it here (with a few other goodies as well  :dance:). After setting the loading and giving time to warm up nicely -...

    Genesis Triton

    Hi Vaughan, I think he might have focused on the interconnects the last year or so - he has been without a phono stage for quite a while. But then also one has to find the correct conductor amongst other things - so 10 years is not to bad if you are in search of perfection - or as close as is...

    Genesis Triton

    @ Waterhond, You can PM Genesis with regard to the pricing. @ Eldene, They are the best I have heard - that is why all the interconnects in my system (including the digital cable between my transport and DAC) are Genesis Triton cables - now I just have to twist Genesis' arm to make speaker...

    Hi, You can perhaps also try DVDFab - I ripped DVDs to MKV format - and stream them through VLC player to my IPad over my wireless network. Not sure if this will help in your case. Regards Jandre

    Genesis Triton

    Hi Eldene I can only confirm what Agaton Sax said - in my parent's system the Tritons replaced Cardas Golden Cross interconnects - it was a huge improvement - it was as if a veil had been lifted from the music - but it was still natural and without edge. I know Genesis took a set of Tritons to...

    Courier guys that do COD

    Just do not use Time Freight to ship to Bloemfontein (especially from the Cape) - their service is poor - delivering stuff late (and hen charging the same as for overnight even though it took 2 days) - and this last time actually loosing the parcel - hope someone is enjoying my NAD 3030  :'(

    Magnaplanar MMG speakers

    Hi, I have not heard MMG's - but I love my MG2.5's and my parent's 3.3's. If they are set up correctly - they are magic - but probably not for you if you want earthshaking bass - but vocals are sublime. But I would suggest a more powerfull amp like a Krell KSA 100 at least. Regards Jandre

    General Ignorance of Science

    Excuse me if this has been mentioned somewhere in the previous 37 pages - if have not read through all of it. Why does science and religion have to be mutually exclusive? Could God not have created everything through the big bang?
