    Speaker Repair

    Any idea who can do that? Would be cool if i could take it in to someone to get a quote to repair, don't wan't to throw a lot of cash at this though, it might be cheaper to write them off and cut my losses.

    Speaker Repair

    Thanks for the feedback guys... I did more researching and eventually managed to get some rubber / plastic adhesive and repaired the cone perfectly, unfortunately the speaker has previously been repaired (unsuccessfully) and I think some damage was done to the voice coil, they're relatively old...

    Strobe light loan - Joburg

    Another option is download "RPM Calculator" from the Android play store (Apple should also have it but not sure), you then open the app place the phone on the platter and it gives you live RPM on the fly, I've found it to be very accurate and convenient.

    Speaker Repair

    I have a speaker where the rubber / foam surround has come apart from the cone (plastic), I want to try and re glue them together but I'm not sure what glue to use, I'm leaning towards contact adhesive at this stage because if applied correctly it forms a very good bond but also does not become...

    Transcend 128gb SSD R360 on Firstshop

    Reading this and I'm reminded of the Sybaritic / Techstop drama, I never understand how companies like this stay in business.

    Turntable support

    +1 I use this for my turntable, brilliant design can hold a lot of weight and the actual shelf is super light, they're not cheap though.

    Cleaning vinyl

    Two things I've changed in my cleaning process that seem to have made a noticeable difference that I thought I'd share.... 1. I changed the spray bottle I use for my cleaning mix to one that makes more of like a vapor when it sprays and I'm convinced (could be placebo but who cares I'm...

    Android Box for Media center

    I've obviously missed something :( POE eliminates the need to pull a power cable and rather essentially converts the Ethernet cable which is a prerequisite for the device to work anyways into a dual purpose single power and Ethernet cable (hence the term "Power Over Ethernet"). If you have a AC...

    Android Box for Media center

    Dont be scared of POE, 99% of all outdoor wireless links in Gauteng run on POE, makes installation far simpler (and cheaper). Does that camera you bought support POE though? I'd be surprised if it did, maybe passive POE?

    Raspberry Pi 2 + Tidal recommendations?

    Max2player will most probably be the best if you're going to use Hifiberry, it has native support and is enabled with the click of a button.

    Takealot.com vinyls - Be careful!!

    I saw a positive post online about Raru so gave them a bash and glad I did, their prices are pretty good, service and packaging was excellent.

    Linn Sondek LP12 Upgrade advise

    I haven't had a very close look at the cartridge yet, haven't had time, played it a bit yesterday and it sounded good, agree with your cartridge remarks though, I usually take them with a pinch of salt. Thanks for the suggestions, have a clearer idea of where to start.

    Linn Sondek LP12 Upgrade advise

    I'll replace the belt, usually do on secondhand tables I get. Any idea who keeps the springs and grommets? I have one 45rpm LP so not high up the priority list. Thanks for the advise.

    Darn, was hoping first suggestion wouldn't be tonearm, that's a pricey upgrade.

    Linn Sondek LP12 Upgrade advise

    So, by chance I stumbled across a Linn Sondek LP12 at a pretty good price, I've liked this table for quite some time so I couldn't resist and bought it  :Whoohoo: The table is in good condition barring a few light scratches on the plinth and a cracked lid both of which I'll sort out. The table...
