    Experience with Buchardt Audio products

    So I have just done my sums properly and the S400 comes in R42k which is way too rich for me! The P300, on the other hand is around R25k which is much more manageable.

    Experience with Buchardt Audio products

    I have only just become aware of this company which sells using a direct to customer model. Has anyone had experience with them? Are their products as good as they claim? I would be most interested in hearing about the S400 model. See: S400 MKII

    What are the best bookshelf speakers you have heard?

    I’m wondering why the KEF LS Meta is nowhere mentioned; Stereophile clearly rates them highly and has them in Category A (restricted extreme low frequency). That said, I do still have trouble fully understanding how their system fits with the actual listening experience.

    Purchasing Digital downloads

    And don’t forget Qobuz who have a vast library. I haven’t downloaded recently, but I was able to avoid regional copyright issues by paying via Paypal.

    Norma Audio is also now available in SA from Airmusic

    So Nidri, as the person who bought your previous amp (Audio Analogue Aacento), I was wondering what you felt were the major differences between it and your new Norma set up? Is it a case of an incremental improvement that one would expect from the price difference, or does your new amp have an...

    Help with mid-range driver problem

    Gentleman I thank you all for your input on this matter. You had me convinced that the current drivers were replacement knock-offs, but then I got a late response from Linn saying that the Peerless drivers are in fact the correct units. Guess that?s a black against the fabled high quality of...

    Help with mid-range driver problem

    A lot cheaper than importing the drivers. But I think I should do some further research to ascertain whether these are the original drivers - they fo seem on the cheap side! (I bought the speakers as 2nd hand, but from a highly reputable dealer). So, thank you. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Help with mid-range driver problem

    Thank you everyone. Your responses are greatly appreciated. I am based in KZN so it looks like the best way forward will be to buy a new unit. But there is no indication that the units are matched so should I buy for both speakers or only replace the one that is faulty? Sent from my iPad...

    Help with mid-range driver problem

    Thanks for the suggestion. The distortion was also present while playing the speaker in Aktiv mode which bypasses the cross-over altogether. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Help with mid-range driver problem

    My Linn Majik 140 setup has just developed a problem in the left mid-range driver: it is distorting badly with a scratching noise. See attached image for driver specs; unfortunately it doesn?t seem possible to add a short video giving an audio example. I thought the problem was coming from the...

    ADVICE on Projector Technologies

    I have been asked by our local Art Gallery (Tatham Art Gallery, Pietermaritzburg) to give them input on the best upgrade their existing projector (Vivitek D966). Since this new projector will primarily be used for film and photographic images, I have been looking at home cinema rather than...

    Help with my oppo BDP-83

    Thanks, guys, for the advice so far.  I'll take another look at the fuse to see if I can pry it out of the caps and then get it tested. I don't have any tecchie knowledge or equipment so I wouldn't be able to change the caps myself.

    Help with my oppo BDP-83

    Hi, I would be grateful for some advice. For no apparent reason my oppo BDP-83 (which I use exclusively for its region-free DVD capability) has suddenly stopped working: it just won't power up. I have followed the advice from oppo and "rebooted" by fully disconnecting, pressing the on button...
