    Bentley fs120 upgrade path

    The Bentley's (120's) are brilliant. At their price point they are incomparable. They are amazing for hard hitting music - rock, blues, blues rock, pop, edm etc. - "doof doof" is what they do really well. They work pretty well with multi-instrumental classical pieces, full orchestra etc...

    Testing ChatGPT

    @Cowboy Food for thought: "Being contrarian does not mean you are right." Manufactured outrage based upon fear that the things you (think?) hold dear are being taken away from you "by them". This is called propaganda. Do not fall into the oh so easy trap of following it. Technology has...

    Is live radio going the way of the dodo ?

    Actually, it was written by a senior lecturer of Cape Peninsula University of Technology. I fail to understand how you got your knickers in a knot over that article, it was factual and interesting. Just because you don't like what was written does not mean it should be disparaged. Perhaps...

    Is live radio going the way of the dodo ?

    Stats are, as so oft quoted: lies lies & stats. https://www.itweb.co.za/content/kLgB1Mez4N9q59N4 https://theconversation.com/radio-is-thriving-in-south-africa-80-are-tuning-in-176846 As I'm sure I've stated in this thread: radio will continue to entertain/indoctrinate those who have nothing...

    Testing ChatGPT

    Go on - instead of being complicated & "testing", just ask a simple question: "Who's your Daddy?" The answer that I got was downright amusing.

    You are most welcome to experience the reality. Give a shout out & we can make it happen. No frying of expensive equipment needed. Just dbPoweramp & conversions. FLAC, MP3, ALAC, OGG - choose one, it can be made to happen. I can even "upscale" :ROFLMAO: a 320kbps mp3 to 24/192 FLAC.

    Fried Devialet expert

    :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Reminds me of the time I converted 320k mp3's to FLAC, played both versions for a few "audiophools" that came around, telling them which was which. They all swore the FLAC version was better!

    Solar Subsidy

    Carry on regardless. ANC have been in charge for 29 years - when have you known any of their promises to bear fruit?

    Clothes sizes, getting smaller?

    I'm all for corporates to support good causes, and believe they can make valuable contributions to causes that impact people around the globe. Gun control, being a partisan issue in the US, is definitely not one of those causes.

    Clothes sizes, getting smaller?

    There will NEVER be a pair of Levi's purchased in my household. When clothing manufacturers get involved in politics it's time to tell them to GTFO & vote with your wallet. IMO of course.

    Clothes sizes, getting smaller?

    Have not noticed any difference, but then TBH I do not shop at conventional stores. We sell corporate gifts & apparel, as well as manufacture custom apparel for various clients, so I always buy "in house" so to speak. Waist size is waist size surely? 34 inches = 34 inches, it is a...

    Hellmans Mayo

    That's odd, as Hellman's contains sugar too! Most likely the Woolies variant has more sugar added as per @goldfritter 's post.

    Jay's take on how vinyl compares with digital

    Pondering last night on one of the personalities that seeks to clash with mine, I was reminded of a quote from The Immoralist by André Gide: “You have to let other people be right. It consoles them for not being anything else.” This shall be my way forward.

    Google's MusicLM: Text generated music

    Yup - That is from text. But what @chrisc was stating is that it is from thought. So I'm curious to see what/where/how that exists. Also - if it is real..... - so help all the chops thinking about porn! ;):ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

    Now Playing...

    Never ordered directly from them - but, if the shipping is via courier (and not Post Orifice) then you should be good as gold. I see no reason why DG would want to defraud/mislead clients/buyers. My copy was brought in via Joel from yesteryear records. There was a serious premium to be paid as...

    Scary! What is the device called/named? Do you have a link so we can all check it out?
