    COVID poll

    Complete agree. Just because some regulations were dumb it doesn't mean you should ignore the meaningful ones. Everybody i know that work in hospitals take it very seriously - while people that haven't been directly affected mostly take it too lightly.

    B&W subwoofer stops working

    The sub doesnt shut down - output is just very low until i move the lpf switch. But cant hurt to replace  the fuse...

    B&W subwoofer stops working

    No its not auto standby - they are permanently on. Use two of them in a dual sub setup. Auto standby is irritating to me so i dont use it.

    B&W subwoofer stops working

    I wonder if someone knows how to fix this strange issue. My one B&W asw610 stops playing once in a while. If you move the switch that turns the low pass filter on or off it starts working again. Any ideas?

    Dual Pv1d subs in a 2.2 setup

    Hi Kgomotso - I had dual pv1s and they were extremely dissapointing to me. Maybe the pv1ds are better- but I doubt it. I would rate the pv1 as my most dissapointing audio purchase.

    New 65" TV

    This looks like a good deal? https://kloppers.co.za/default/lg-led-65-uhd-smart-tv-65um7100.html?sfdr_ptcid=11363_617_102830752&sfdr_hash=2358dbc68db6d508ec10aa8c9298736f&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyPmzy9C76gIViu7tCh2BDQtiEAQYASABEgKadvD_BwE

    Bargain speakers that have amazed you ?

    I had a set of Tannoy MX2s long ago. I bought them new for a very small amount of money. My memory might be clouded by nostalgia, but I loved the warm rich sound from them. If they didnt get stolen I would probably have still listened to them, I am in fact tempted to try some of the newer...

    AVR - dialogue clarity solution required

    Oh and for the OP - from my experience then the actual center speaker you use makes a world of difference.

    AVR - dialogue clarity solution required

    Nice to hear that my opinion is shared by someone else too. I have a CMC1 on my system - its for sure better than my monitor audio bronze center but I do think the Bentley FC150 is considerably clearer than the B&W CMC and also good to know that upgrading to a CMC2 wont be worth it either....

    AVR - dialogue clarity solution required

    I had a set of Bentleys and now have a B&Ws. I prefer the overall sound of the B&Ws but.... the clarity of voices was for sure better with the center on the Bentleys - I think the FC150 is a gem of a center speaker and punches well above its weight. My father in law that is nearly 80 commented...

    Bi-Amping information

    Thats how I understand it yes. And thats why Im wondering if the PSU sitting unused in the avr might be put to some good use.

    Bi-Amping information

    I have a 5ch MM7055 power amp that I use to power my front speakers. I only use two channels from it - I dont intend to bi-amp the fronts from the MM7055 since as far as I understand it has only one power supply so it would probably not have any real benefit. An option I have been thinking...

    Court judgement on lockdown

    I dont think its a crime to be positive about some aspects in South Africa. We still have several very good judges on the bench.

    Court judgement on lockdown

    Thats exactly right. Most south africans are reasonable and all of us want to do what is necessary to keep people safe. But the situation got absurdly ridiculous the last month.

    Samsung Q80 65 vs LG OLED B9 65

    Those do seem to be hideously expensive? Is it worth the difference over lower end models?

    Freedom of Speech

    The thing that boggles my mind with Trump is that everybody I know locally and in the USA that supports him is a conservative christian. He is a guy that had affairs with porn stars while his wife was pregnant, many divorces, many unethical businesses that literally stole money from poor people...

    Lockdown extended

    Good news on the fishing front. Recreational fishing to be allowed. https://www.environment.gov.za/mediarelease/creecy_permittingdirections_level3lockdown

    Freedom of Speech

    That is unfortunately factually very incorrect and does seem like a typical social media influenced post. Please google - there are many websites tracking the percentage campaign promises kept and Trump is performing horribly. Way worse than obama...
