    So I'm assuming you play movies, TV etc. through just the 2 speakers?  Is there a huge difference between this and your old 5.1 setup in terms of sound?

    Low Ball Offers

    These are the worst.  Grates me too when someone negotiates while giving the impression that they are interested, only to turn away and say "I'll get back to you" after they squeeze for a ridiculous price.  Just as bad are those who negotiate to a bargain and then tell you they bought...

    Low Ball Offers

    My personal favourite is 'that is all my wife will allow me to spend'.  Really amazing how many guys hide behind their wives when low-balling. And the absolute pits: when they pull out of a sale at the last moment because "their wife" is giving them uphill.  Who wears the dress in that house...

    Quad ESL 2905 Speaker - Repairer Needed

    Alternatively will consider offers to take the speakers as is.  They have wooden crates that were built for them.  So, inviting fair offers via PM.  I can let the 'offer' option run for a few days? One speaker is working fine.  The other one has a single panel that needs to be repaired. ...

    Quad ESL 2905 Speaker - Repairer Needed

    I'm helping someone get his Quad ESL 2905 repaired.  One panel on one speaker makes a popping sound.  Does anyone know where to have it repaired properly - here in Gauteng?  Plus more or less what the repair cost will be, assuming it is only one panel?

    I'd probably be in for an external one

    DIY 12v Trigger build - wanted to buy

    I honestly think someone with the know-how should make these and sell them.  Personally I think there is a demand, no?

    Looks like this is going to be the cheapest route.  Which brand ECO plug did you use?

    DIY 12v Trigger build - wanted to buy

    How much will that cost? Though I would prefer one that is external to be honest.  I've seen some external DIY ones on the net

    DIY 12v Trigger build - wanted to buy

    Drilling 3 holes in the chassis of the DAC? Would this work on my power amp?

    Ok, so when you switch the preamp on - with a remote - it sends power to the other components on the aux plugs?

    DIY 12v Trigger build - wanted to buy

    I don't think that has a 12v trigger? The Parasound does not have standby mode - only on and off

    That would be perfect.  I have no experience in importing things though.  Can anybody advise?

    DIY 12v Trigger build - wanted to buy

    I have a Yamaha RXA3030 and I want to connect it to my Parasound HCA-806 power amp.  Problem is the Parasound has no 12v trigger switch.  Is there anyone that can build a 12v trigger device to power the Parasound when the Yamaha starts up? What would this cost?
