    Urgent battery advice please

    I use Deltec batteries when replacing..not cheap but long lasting ..5 yrs+ vs 3 yrs max of other brands I have tried All the battery really does is start the car..when its running the alternator takes over

    Get better sound by Jim Smith

    Glasses arent rubbish , they affect the sound in that they impede the sound flow to your ears due to the glass and frame and the pressure of the arms change the ears shape slightly
