Ola Peeps need some advice. I watched the very funny SuzelleDIY - How to Make a Loadshedding Survival Kit video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUSmR7vZ_2I) and wondered about building a music load shedding survival kit. So i bought the FIIO E7 dac headphone amp with a nice 80 hours battery...

I think if you add CUD  (constant upgrade disorder) and make it the trifecta of CUD \ OCD \ GAS you are screwed ,otherwise known as audiophile accumulator :)

Yeah weird question but the calcs are interesting. I understand now why my back cringe's when i fiddle with my setup and swing things around avr         18.5 PC         15 Power amp1 13.5 Power amp2 15.5 Floorstanders 54.4 Center 18.9 Surround         15 Surround b 12.5 Front H 12 Front W...

Excuse the noob question but what does the IB's refer too ?

I went from 1 Sub to 2 subs and the difference was EPIC. I cant imagine what 4+ subs would sound like. Im actually quite apprehensive because if the reviews say too many good things i might have to consider it and im broker than the brokest broke person :(

Hi Folks The magic smoke has left my NAD power amplifier  :( I think its the caps judging from what i saw and heard. I remember reading about some guru power amplifier fixer in rand burg or west rand if i recall.(cant find his details now) Please could someone pop me his details and also the...

Running in speakers makes a considerable difference in my opinion. I have had 2 incidents where i bought run in\demo and new and the run in speakers sounded more balanced and a bit less constricted. It is also one of the reasons i like buying Demo stock. Some of that running in has been done...

My concerns where about the cancellation \ amplification of the frequency as well. From the internet research i have been doing it seems it is a very uncommon idea. In the end i decided to go the conventional one in each corner route :) Better safe than sorry ,and also the wood is kinda pricey...

Has anybody ever tried a center subwoofer placement in their Home Theater config ? I know the conventional subwoofer placement is to the side of the floorstanders ,Left or right corner of room or to the middle of the side of the room. In a discussion with one of the forumites we chatted about...

I have done it on my Yamaha and Onkyo AV Recievers with no problems.

The physical media being dead is a bone of contention for so many. Im always worried the digital steam \ amazon \ itunes cloud store i buy all my stuff from goes belly up. Can you imagine the investment that just goes poof ? At least with hardcopy's i still got something ,althou that something...

That rooom is ripping !!! it needs the full 11.2 + atmos looooooove  :flame: I think that setup would probably provide a better experience than IMAX. im so green with envy it is very very sad  :-[

To me the cinema experience has become a sliding bar experience. The more you are willing to pay the better the end point experience. A example would be cinema junction vs Imax type experience. My problem with it is the reality's are distorted. Try and take a family of 4 to a Imax movie and see...

I have the best load shedding setp eva !! I call it the snooze plan. It involves lots of ZZZZZZ's and the ocassional sheep maths problem  :P

The rumour is that there was a load spike and the power got tripped. The the genny's didnt kick in and the data center ran on UPS's but the aircons where off. Supposedly quite a bit of heat damage to all the equipment. Dont think MTN's is going to have a fun week.

yeah its a complicated topic and so many material get punted or bashed on the net its crazy. The only thing that everybody seems to agree on is that the more mass there is the better. Things like high density foam \ dry walling are very good at putting a lot of mass between sound and external...

Noooo you neeed more pooowah for those speakers  :D

To be absolutely fair to yamaha it was comparing a 5k amp to a 25k amp. That all being said it there was a wee bit of disappointment  :P I have subsequently been converted to a Onkyo fan  :2thumbs: @ Wanda Will always welcome a forumite to visit and impart their thoughts  :D

Hi Peeps I just wanted to ask if anybody has any experience soundproofing Double glass sliding doors ? I know you get the sound proofed glazed doors but they are somewhat pricey and im looking for something cheapish. The goal is to listen to some movies at loud volume without iritating the...
